More like he had his worst year of his career with Teddy, who can't throw the ball further than 5 yards...

Yeah I mentioned Wallace a month or two ago as an option.

He fits the deep threat mold like Ginn was for us and should come relatively cheap.

I’d like to see us (and you should too) do better than Wallace but if we do sign Wallace, he’s better than what we got.

First of all Chud did not run the offense Ron wanted as it was boom or bust causing too many 3 and outs and didn't control the clock. The second year Chud went read option everything and we regressed. It may have looked like Turner's offense the first year but by the second it was not close to Turner's offense at all. 

As for player fit, as long as Cam struggles with footwork, fundamentals and accuracy, he won't look and act like a traditional quarterback. Truth is if we only looked at his passing he likely wouldn't be the starter. What makes him dangerous is his dual threat capacity. Without that he is average at best. 

Of the backs the OP mentioned CMC fits like Sproles did. The rest like Gore and Smith are terrible comparisons. 

The best thing Norv can do is listen to Ron his brother and Cameron who are already here and to keep the basic elements in place. Tweaks not wholesale scheme changes are needed  or this season will be worse than any under Rivera yet. This is an 11-5 team that could have been 13-3 with consistency from the offense and less predictability on defense the second half of the year. Making big changes will be more harmful than helpful. 

it all depends on what the changes are...I don't see a wholesale reconstruction of the offense given the short window we have ...it is obvious the offense will be within the framework of what we already have...the biggest question is what other players will be added and plugged in...?

Wrong. The defense had more holes than Swiss cheese the first year Chud took over causing the offense to have to pass. The second he basically had one foot out the door and the defense still was Swiss cheese. Also the whole Cam and his footwork is truly a myth. Cam makes throws others can't consistently and most of his inconsistencies come from having to throw in tight windows.

Newton is not a receivers dream, Drew Brees is. No receivers are dying to play for Cam who over throws folks regularly and complete just over half his passes. 

Cam has never had the weapons needed to become a “receivers dream”. We haven’t provided him with ANY legitimate talent other than maybe 2015, and those results speak for themselves.

Keep beating that idiotic drum of yours though.

He sure did help Ted Ginn out in a big way. Go ask him how he feels about Cam. He wanted to come back here, but you know, we don’t need him. We have forced Cam to get by with mediocre talent at best at the position for far too long, then we get fans like yourself critiquing every missed throw.
