Cam Peoples App State


 Share

Recommended Posts

Former App RB that is fast AND powerful. Had health issues in Boone. Was a HUGE reason they beat Texas A&M last year. Had great games vs ranked opponents in Miami UNC and Coastal. Guy shows up in big games.  When heathy he was the best player in the Sun Belt
 

Hoping he makes the team and has an Arian Foster type career.

When Cam Peoples is good, he's incredibly good. He actually has the all-time bowl record (319 yards in the 2020 Myrtle Beach Bowl). Definitely a team player with some health issues, but he's got a lot of natural talent.

One area he really needs to work on is the receiving game, though. He's not an asset in that department whatsoever.

I don't watch enough App games to know but is that a product of his lack of ability in that area or more a product of their offensive system? Some teams just don't really throw to RBs much. I meant just think back to Mike Shula. RBs were basically just treated as extra blockers in his offense. Hell, we all begged for screens until we were blue in the face when Cam was getting teed off on by teams blitzing us.

I won't get excited until I see him legitimately running with the big dogs. The highlights don't do anything for me to be honest. He's looking a little pedestrian among so-so competition. Perhaps it's a function of the offense, but they seemed to run him around the edge way too much, and it looks like to me that he just doesn't have that type of speed, or quickness in the flat. I see him as a PS guy at this point. I don't know who he'd beat out. We can just pull one of the TEs to play H-back or fullback when necessary.

    • He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc. 
    • The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position. 
    • Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
