Jim Miller and Pat Kirwan on Cam


Recommended Posts

I didn't read entire thread, because I'm lazy, but I heard someone call into WFNZ one day and make a very valid point.  This guy said he's coached at most levels of sports and one thing he notices is Cam hardly EVER has a "clean pocket" to throw in.  Not only is Cam hit quite often, but he very seldom has a clean pocket.  The caller said he'd guess, on a low number that 50% of the time he does NOT have a clean pocket, and more likely than not it's higher than that.   I know Cam has made mistakes, but how many of those are due to clean pocket issues or just mistakes?   Not to mention he probably doesn't even trust his blocking.  When you don't have a clean pocket it messes up your timing, which is vastly important for QB's and their receivers.  It's not to really judge a guy when his offensive line is terrible and he's handcuffed by his coaching staff.

On a related note, I have thought for years now G play was more important for Cam than T play....and our G play is HORRIBLE.

Cam actually likes the pocket and wants to step up and make his home there. Too consistently he can't. The fact he is so big and has such a long stride.... IMO means he needs a little more room to legitimately step up and keep good footwork

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
