Belichick is the best coach in the world. As a talent evaluator and GM he leaves quite a bit to be desired. Sure there's minimal risk, but he's signed a ton of huge name players like Cam for "low risk" deals who have pretty much all turned out to do absolutely nothing for the team. Cam in the end will likely end the same way.

Early returns are looking pretty good. This is likely a Hawks blowout with any other QB on their roster.

yup, and he's has a couple of really great passes today that were missing from his first game.  again a lot of this is the talent that roster has... but this is looking really promising.

Probably not. Belichick won 11 games with Matt Cassel who hasn't even lasted in this league as long as Hoyer. Hoyer/Stidham would have a different feel but probably not much different

Yep. Leading your team in rushing yards, attempts and TDs could probably do that to most QBs. 

Couple that with some doo doo olines and JAG receivers and well...

That is probably a large contribution to it, I personally think it has more to do with how emotionally he plays.

Yeah, I think these first two games have kinda been a feeling out process for Belichick, McD, and Cam as they all get a feel for each other. The offense probably gets opened up more with each week.

God, Metcalf is incredible.

[Mr. Scot]

Metcalf got away with a push.

And defenses get more film to study each week making it harder for their offense.

I think so.  Honestly, I don't think they have the personnel to be a truly vertical offense, but the threat of the deep ball will open up the run game and intermediate throws.  I think McD will find ways to score with a talent like Cam.

We'll see. If he stays healthy, I think he'll do big things this year. But the health is the big question. There's some GMs watching this right now kicking themselves they didn't call Cam. I'd bet money on that.

Come on D, hold them to a FG at most...
