Cam was leading rusher and CMC was leading receiver

The Option will always be part of this offense as long as cam is here.  QB scrambles will always be a part of this offense as long as cam is here.  Its not Ron or Norvs fault that the cowboys let cam wide open on those plays.  Damn, whats wrong with you guys.  Be happy you have a QB who can do the things Cam can do.

The nice thing about this game is that, while we did not have great receiving stats or yards. Cam completed 65% of his passes and threw some insanely precise balls to funchess when he was pretty well covered by the defense. 

That pass to CMC in the flat was precise as well, if it had been anywhere else he would not have got the first down.  I have to admit that I wasnt sure cam had those throws in him.

That's the one thing that is STILL missing from our offense for well over a year now, the big play down the field.

I mean some of it has to be our oline and some of it has to be WRs not being able to get open way down the field. But it still iritates me that I've not seen a deep bomb TD since Ginn went to the Saints. 

Yea I think that’s personnel. Moore will be that guy, just gonna take some time. Sure as hell ain’t Funchess. Thought it might be Smith. Think it will be Samuel and Moore soon enough.

Hopefully Samuel comes back. He looked good in preseason along with wright who still looks good.

Get Ian Thomas and DJ more involved.

Hmmm I saw Greg Olsen out of his leg cast when Ron talked to the team after the game. Maybe he wont be out for the remainder of the season. Idk.

They have to find someone other than Amini to play RT, hopefully Corey Robinson is ready. fug it throw him in.

But Cam's completion percentage was 65.4

Also, can anyone explain why analysts hate when Cam runs and calls him a run first QB, yet suck off Vick for his running ability and call him a "dual threat" QB when Vick couldn't throw for poo and Cam is light years above him in the throwing department?

I'm hoping that Curtis Samuel can play this week. Funchess and Smith is not a good starting combination. We need receivers that can separate underneath because this offensive line wont be able to buy enough time to take shots deep on the regular.

Cam called his own number several times during the first drive. After that, most of his runs were scrambles.  He had some big runs, which skewed the numbers a bit.  

 

CMC and CJ rushed 17 times for 85 yards.  The running game was outstanding yesterday.  Any complaints about it are silly.  

 

A bigger problem imo was Cam trying to force the ball to Funchess a few times when Devin wasn't open.  I am not sure if the problem was no other receivers were open, or Cam being zeroed in on Devin, but it is something that needs to be worked on.    Of course, its the first game, so that kind of thing is to be expected.

Doesn't matter if you only score 16pts

Yet again.  Cam was leading rusher, CMC leading receiver.  Keep the excuses coming.

Ok to all you that only look at Cams stats. When he checks a ball down look at as a run.  Cam had a good game CMC had a good game. Anyone with eyes can see that.  You don’t need to keep making the same threads over and over stating the obvious. We have enough of those people in here already

You obviously don't understand the purpose of this thread.

QB leading rusher and RB leading receiver is the next wave of NFL football.  the rest of the copycat league will be doing this soon enough.  It's hard being innovators, trust the process.
