What I want to see from Cam

So with Cam's debut over, here are some things I would like to see from him on Friday. Cam has had some time to watch some tapes and practice, so I hope/expect to see just a slight improvement.

Accuracy: The throws Cam made in the opener were all around good for him being a rookie. However, I would like to see higher than a 50% completion rate. Any improvement in this area would be great. If that means taking fewer shots down field to get a big gain, I am for it.

Keep the drive alive: Cam didn't run at all last week, which I was fine with. But with him starting, I would like to see him escape pressure and extend plays. If Cam can get a first down without getting destroyed, I say let him do it.

Get a touchdown: Whether it be a throw, a run, or a hand-off to a RB, I want to see Cam put together a drive that ends in a TD. Although I won't go crazy if it doesn't happen, I think running with the 1's should give him a better shot at scoring a TD. But field goals work too.

No fumbles: Since Cam is a rookie I can understand if he makes mistakes. Interceptions will happen. But I think Cam has much greater control over fumbling the football. I want to see him play smart, and remember to protect the football. If he is scrambling, sensing pressure, or just taking the snap from center, I want to see basic fundamentals.

That's about it. Although I want great things to happen for Cam, I only expect the basics. Smart play, slight improvements, and solid mechanics.

What do you want to see?

      Qbs aren't defined by physical abilities. Brady, Brees, Manning, Montana, Warner,.....doesn't seem to correlate.

      Corbett might not be gone

      By MHS831 · Posted

      If we are going to spend the money anyway, maybe the signing is not as bad as it seems.  Mays outperformed Corbett (before his injury and if you go back to last year, Corbett has been below average) and then Christensen took the job and Mays quickly took it from him and never looked back.  He could use improvement reaching to the next level (LBs) but picking up stunts and blitzes---he was surprisingly good.  Run blocking needs some work, but he is 25.  Corbett, in my view, should be G/C depth and if Mays steps back, he is there.  Mays should start because this team is building for the future and 30 year old players are not building blocks.  We shall see.  That is how I think about it, but there are many factors we do not know. Having said that, I like what Zavala is doing, and I do not want to bring in someone who would take opportunities away from him.  Zavala was really good at RG down the stretch, and in limited duty, was awesome. In fact, we have a guard from the PS who played briefly and did well, but he only played a few plays.  He is 25 and I recall that fans of his former team were upset when we signed him.   Maybe as the backup center only (Corbett).  You need 2 centers to run practices efficiently.  I cannot say enough about the OL coaches on this staff.  What they have done is overshadowed by the Lewis / Hunt signing.  Mays, Ekwonu, Zavala--impressive growth.
