Is Cam the worst QB on the roster?

[Mr. Scot]

Starting quarterbacks always play less in preseason.  Thus, a smaller sample.

Any math nerd worth his salt could tell you small samples all too often make positives look better and negatives look worse than they really are.

For a guy like Cam who's not always at his best outside of full game situations anyway... Well, if you know what 'extrapolate' means, just do that.

No and I'd have to disagree with people saying that Cam knows it doesn't count. If you're saying that you want to be great, then every time you step on field, every time you make throw a pass, it counts. I don't know what the issue is or how to fix it, but I know it counts...

Derek Anderson throws a perfectly catchable ball to open receivers. Cam throws the ball so hard. If he stepped into his throws, he'd break  receivers hands, so maybe throwing off his back foot is a blessing and not a problem in mechanics.

We all love Cam on this board...I personally have a huge non-sexual crush on the man. But we can at least admit that he's not having the best preseason on the field. And if that offends you, un-bunch panties please. :)

Why are these threads popping up when I'm on my phone. :(

[MDPanthersFan]

You can't judge Cam in the preseason off of stats... the play calling is very vanilla right now and IS NOT using him as a dual threat, so defenses aren't loading up in the box to stop him from running... most defense are just letting their front-7 do the job of stopping the run... with there being no threat of the zone-read, Cam is just another pocket QB in the preseason

With that said, you can judge Cam on his accuracy and footwork though... see whether he is still throwing high and off his back foot...

I'm sooo glad that the older I get the less I care about televised glorified practices. Lol. 

 

Yall spend way too much time worry about crap u can't change, control or improve. 

 

I I choose to just simply be entertained, and man is it a whole lot more gratifying.

PoundCat needs to watch Webb's playoff game.

PoundCat needs to watch Webb's playoff game.

What year was that? What year is it now? I was referring to the QB performances of the first 2 preseason games, not a playoff game from 4 years ago.

Webb is here for his special teams contributions, and because he can help out at WR.

Anyone who actually believes he could be a viable option behind center might literally be a vegetable.

[PoundCat]

I never thought of Ronald Eugene Rivera as a vegetable...

Brah, Cam is five for five on underwhelming preseasons. Nothing needs to change, when the lights come on and the season starts Cam is ready to ball.

Here's my crazy theory on why Cam is always slow to start in games, but gets into gear by his third series...

It's the shoes. 

Cam always comes out and does his warm ups in his fancy Underarmor cleats. Let's face it, they make a big deal about showing them off before the game, and it is good advertising. League rules require him to change the cleats before the game starts, so it's go back to the locker room, slap on the Nikes, get taped up and get out there.

So he has gotten warmed up and acclimated to the Underarmor cleats, then goes back in and switches to a different brand with different characteristics. Athletes are really particular about their shoes, the fit, the breaking them in... and he goes out and prepares with one, then plays in the others. It probably takes him three series on the field to get the feel of them and get situated again.

Just to show off some special shoes and pick up some advertising dollars. Could this showboating actually be hurting the team a bit? Love the guy and can't wait to see him play, but if this is the problem, he needs to get his priorities straight.

That was impressive.
