It’s disingenuous to imply what you are with this post.  Tom Brady panics then.  Rodgers.  Wilson.   Hell, even complete garbage QBs like PJ Walker. 

those guys reacting to pressure isn’t what is referenced when talking about Sam.

Not sure about that. Bienamy (sp) had a plan for Cam and apparently pitched it.

Unfortunately, that was a few years ago now.  Any coach getting the job now isn't going to want to rely on Cam.  It doesn't mean they show him the door immediately... But I bet he is a transition piece at best.  I wouldn't have a problem being wrong, just seems likely.

Coaching is part of the team.

They lineup play 10 times Carolina is winning most.  

Best team doesn’t always win.  That’s why sports is fun. 

different refs and the outcome might of be different too that day. Hard to say that crew didn’t influence the outcome.

Dude Darnold is broken.  It may be - and I think this - that with a totally new situation and new, good OL the Happy feet could have been cured...

But that wasn't the case.  It is clear his footwork is atrocious to put it mildly... This isn't about Cam...

Cam spent most of his career behind bad OLs.    He doesn’t panic. 

It’s like being a punt returner.  You either have ice in your veins or you don’t.  Sam is a panic guy.  Always has been. 
 

Tbf I think Darnold (and Carr) had worse lines than Cam had, especially at the critical early years.  Cam also is tough as nails and had athleticism that allowed him to avoid sacks those dudes didn't.

Sad to think what Cam could have been with a truly great OL.

I dunno man.  He's got some real arm talent, but that's about it.  He can't read an NFL defense, and he doesn't have a good sense of when the pressure is coming.  For as many snaps as he has with no protection, you think he would have a better feel of when a guy is running straight at him.

Cam?  True he sometimes trusted his athleticism tooooo much and gave up sacks, but that was rare,  and he sure as fug could read defenses and had an incredible ability to extend plays.

I misread that as Sam Darnold.  My bad lol

All good.

Darnold would have been better with better OLs but still no guarantees from him in terms of franchise-level talent... I do think it's ridiculous mismanagement to try to rehab a qb behind the garbage we did but hey the hubris of this staff knows no limits.

Are Rivera and Shula coaching all ten games vs Gary Kubiak and Wade Phillips?

 

I think so.  Bronco O was horrible.   We had good defense too.  
 

and I still don’t think they beat us without the refs adding them that day.  So in addition to the bad day to have a bad day….they got some big help to pull it off.

      Trading Down Could be a Gold Mine in This Draft!!

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      This is why it's probably going to be hard to trade down. This draft is fairly light on top tier talent but pretty deep in talent of that next tier down. I don't think there's going to be a lot of teams clamoring to move up and numerous teams might be entertaining moving down. Not a good market to trade down if that's the case.

      And if they can't find a reasonable trade down (I think we would need a 2nd rounder this year bare minimum to make any trade down worth it). I would definitely expect Dan to trade UP for an EDGE or LB in the top half of R2. Just makes too much sense. We also have a plethora of mid round picks to use as ammo.

      I don't mean to make this a mock draft thread particularly,  but every time I do a mock I have been investigating the talent that goes off the board between picks 8 and our low 2nd rounder pick 57. There is a gargantuan amount of talent still left on the board in the top half of the 2nd round every time I do one. Losing our original 2nd round pick to the Bears as the last pick of the Bryce trade stings badly .  I'm particularly looking at elite players like Carson Schwesinger (LB), Luther Burden (WR), Matthew Golden (WR), Maxwell Hairston (CB) , Nick Scourton , Landon Jackson, Donavan Ezeraku (all DEs/OLBs) . The sweet spot in this draft really feels like pick 15 to 40 - ish. This is why the Bears should be making bank with this draft. I don't know how realistic a trade down is from 8, but if we could pick up any teams higher 2nd rounder and still grab their 1st? We'd be cooking with gas man.  Say for example we get Tet McMillan at pick 8, if you wait all the way to 57 you stand the chance of not getting any impact pass rushers in this draft. And I don't think this team can afford that.  I'd personally love for them to take a break from drafting wrs in R1 or R2 (i think we've taken one in the top 2 rounds in the majority of the past few years), and stick to repairing the nfls worse defense in history (in terms of total points against iirc, or was it yards? Also included my most recent mock as an example . Don't put too much into the  late round selections lol
