Interesting Stat...

Was looking around today and saw this article.  As we all know, statistics are like puppets, we can make them say whatever we want, but this one was kinda interesting.  The Panthers are 0-3 when Cam is sacked 5+ times and they are 12-1 when its less than 4.

 

I think this is gonna be huge this weekend and could play a huge factor in whether we win or lose.  I think we need to score at least 24 points to have a great chance to win and keeping cam upright will help tremendously.  But it's not just about keeping Cam from being sacked but its also about Cam recognizing when nothing is there and pulling it down to run.  Many times this year we have seen Cam waiting for what seems like an eternity for his mediocre receivers to get open.  Cam needs to take off and get whatever he can and avoid taking drive killing sacks.

An article I saw not too long ago detailed a hypothesis to why Cam's rating differed so greatly at home and on the road.  It came down to sacks.  Who is responsible for sacks?  Well, a lot has to do with the o-line.  Our worst games, Buffalo and Arizona especially came on the road.  Our line seems to hold up much better at home. 

 

We're home... with Smitty trolling, and with the Mills family pounding the drum, I don't think San Fran has a clue to what they're about to waltz into. 

 

:ss:

I would imagine most teams are winless when their QB is sacked 5+ times.

This is true...like I said, stats can say whatever you want.  But I do think its relative to our team and the success of the offense. If Cam is harassed and takes a lot of sacks the offense wont be able to overcome that.  But I'm sure that's true with a lot of teams.

    • There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.
    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
