Ron Rivera et al close to ruining Cam Newton

[carolina-chuck]

 It wasn't the offensive lines fault, except the announcers even pointed out he was under pressure, Rivera even said the protection was bad. You have no idea what you're talking about, and probably couldn't coach a Pee Wee football team if you tried.

Cam could've run in those cases many times today. For whatever reason, Cam acted like he forgot how to use his legs. See Russell Wilson today? Under constant pressures and knew how to run tuck the ball and run for it. Cam is just not a smart QB. All the potential in the world, just not very smart.

We really need just one giant Cam Newton thread.

Did you see Russell Wilson throw a game ending INT in a loss today? I did.

if you think that the reason cam wasn't scrambling was because he "wasn't smart" you're very confused and need to watch the game again.

 

the kind of plays we were calling, combined with the defense Ariz was running, severly limited Cam's ability to run out of the pocket.  Our playcalling did not a single thing to get him into space...

 

We really have trouble making in-game adjustments.  It's painfully obvious.

Ya'll remember just how good Cam Newton is?

Stupid. Did you see Cam throw three ints in a blowout loss yesterday? I did.

Wait. Is that really your response?

 

You attempt to use Russell Wilson as some lame attempt to validate your drivel about Cam Newton, but clearly you're woefully uninformed about him. I'm going to give you a homework assignment. Research it, and come back when you know what you are talking about.

I'm gonna be honest here, Cam is one of the worst QB in the NFL at decision making. Whether that is smart or not, he's one of the worst at it. I'm sorry if I hurt anyone's feeling. It's the truth.

Really, really tired of the "Cam isn't smart enough/able to read an NFL defense/has low football IQ."

 

It's just not true.

 

Cam makes judgment mistakes, yes.  He's not perfect in that regard.  But he's more than capable.  The things he has done over the last couple years have more than shown he is smart enough to play the game.  The idea that he was just coasting by on physical skills while breaking all these fuging records is ridiculous

 

A lot of the issues today were born out of frustration, lack of adjustments, poor play calling, and yes, some bad plays on Cam's part.  But, he's not the one missing a block at the 2 yard line that leads directly to a safety.  He may be the one underthrowing the crap out of Smitty for an INT, but he also didn't drop that pass in the endzone.

This was a terrible day for player execution.  It was AWFUL.  The players bear a huge amount of burden for this loss.  But you know what else?  We didn't make adjustments, we didn't try anything new, and we just got destroyed in the second half and basically stood there and took it.

Questioning his IQ based on absolutely nothing is just flat out ignorant.

How are you defining "decision making" and how many QBs do you actually watch?

 

Cam has a lot of issues that I think he can be coached out of - things like holding the ball too long, or being drawn into locking onto a receiver.  It's not like he is incapable of surveying the field, because he often does so when Smitty isn't an issue.  However, maybe it was being sacked 3 times or whatever in one half, but he certainly got unsettled... and is anyone surprised by that?  Eesh.

Your dumb as fug to use the Wilson's int to argue with what I said. If you watched the game, obviously you didn't and only saw the highlights you'd would've saw That Wilson played a hell of a game. Threw the ball when he had to and ran for multiple first downs when under pressure. Some guys has it and some don't. Cam don't. I know I'm hurting your feelings here but take it in easily. It'll be alright. Good night.

Picks today were more poor throws than poor decisions from what I saw.

 

He does still have legitimate issues with mechanics.

That's why I said I blamed a lot of it to Rivera and the staffs.
