Is Cam Calling Out Chud?

Deion, Marshall, and Irvin discuss Cam's postgame comments.

http://www.nfl.com/v...-new-Jay-Cutler

For those too lazy to click the link, a brief summary:

Marshall thinks Cam was speaking on behalf of Chud, as though they've already discussed the issues and Chud expressed "we need more balance on offense."

Deion and Mike don't feel that way, but they're not sure if he was calling him out.

Just a great overall discussion that covers all angles. Mike says Cam can't keep doing this stuff b/c writers are waiting for stuff to jump on and nitpick him over. But, I'm with Marshall, who says what is Cam supposed to do? What is he supposed to say when we're 1-5? There isn't any sugarcoating that makes it any better. Deion was somewhere in between, he said Cam has to deal with losing better, BUT, we (the organization) didn't do anything to help him. He said, "Who did they bring in? TOLBERT? That's it, as far as adding to the offense." So, we're basically the same team. He went on to say we're 24th offensively and 21st defensively, which suggests we just aren't that good, and the lack of additions in the offseason is the reason we haven't improved.

Marshall makes a great point and says, "What if he gets up there and smiles at 1-5? Then what? Then people will be saying he doesn't care." To which Deion says they'd call him Jay Cutler, and that's why Cutler is criticized.

Of course, whoever posted the video from NFLN used the sensational title "Is Cam the New Jay Cutler?" But, that was of little substance, the video covers all points in the discussion.

My opinion? Chud wasn't speaking about a conversation between he and Chud, he was saying Chud needs to find a balance on offense and we don't have it. I assume this because Cam has repeatedly said over the last two games that he just "runs the play that is called." I'm proud of him and happy that he's brought attention to it because Chud should be getting all of the heat that Cam is taking because he's setting up not only Cam, but our entire offense to fail with his horrible playcalling this year.

Meh, Jonathan Jones and Bill Voth(two guys who were in the room) really don't think he was calling out Chud. He was asked a question and he answered it, he isn't the playcaller. And we do need balance on offense.

Yeah, I asked Voth about it when it happened and he said he didn't take it that way.

I think it's up to each person's interpretation. Perhaps I'm believing he called him out because I want him to call him out because I am frustrated with Chud, lol.

Idk, but still... I don't know how saying, "I'm run the plays that are called," "we need more balance on offense," and "same script, same director," aren't direct shots at Chud when viewed cumulatively.

EDIT: But to avoid sensationalism, I changed the title to a question, as it is up for interpretation.

I didn't get the sense that he was calling out Chud either. That said, the players know those questions are out there, and I'm sure some of that same discussion goes on between them in private. As for the reporters, they smell blood in the water, so every syllable uttered by every player and coach is interpreted and re-interpreted.

All of this goes away if we start winning, but that just doesn't seem likely given the current state of the organization. If anything, we are likely to see it get worse, especially with one of our star backs on the sideline for nearly 60 minutes.

I forgot to include the part where he said, "I don't know if it's me, if it's the coordinator..." Well, Mike and Mike just led off their show in the first hour with this and said Cam needs to change his attitude lol. Also, apparently Dan Marino didn't like his postgame presser and many didn't appreciate Cam calling a female reporter "sweetheart."

Smh, he can't win.

I'm starting to think this guy ( or girl, because persistant bitching is a female trait) has mental problems.

First Cam changes his attitude, now they want him to be gleeful about this team as a offense and not question anyone or anything.

He should just walk in from now on and say "we have a great team, and fantastic coaches who called a perfect game." and walk out. Even Bill Voth said the National perception of Cam every week is ridiculous.

Folks, THIS is the biggest issue of the coaching staff.

They don't have a team. They have a collection of individuals with differing opinions. They have not bought into what they are doing at all.

Unacceptable for a second year coaching staff.

Clean house.

      So what's the plan with Moton?

      By PNW_PantherMan · Posted

      With all the money invested in the offensive line, we really need to hit on some Round 1-3 picks.  We could really use a star receiver or pass rusher on a rookie contract for a few years.

      Bryce QB School Week 12

      I understand everyone being happy but let's try not to turn it into another schoolgirl crush festival. No offense. It isn't slower WRs that cause wild overthrows. They have all kinds of practice. It is his mechanics keeping things under control that allows a more efficient conversion of energy, let's call it, into the throw, that we are seeing.  He was doing it with horrible mechanics and needing to put 100% effort to get the ball that far. That totally fugs your accuracy. There is video of Mahomes and Carr on this site that I have linked with them throwing under control vs all out trying to get the most velocity on a radar gun. It shows exactly what I am saying. I didn't make it up. I have been telling y'all for a year at least. It really is all about the margins with Young and he has to be very attentive to his technique to get the most from what he has. He is doing that now and this is the new 'what he can do'. And this is it, there ain't no more. You decide if that's enough for you I guess. But you are noticing better ball flight and zip I am pretty sure, it comes from there. Again go look at the Buffalo drive in preseason and you will see that same thing you see lately. To do that stuff you have to be willing to stand tall come what may, sometimes. Hopefully you have protection to step up safely but the difference making happens when you stand in there and finish just ahead of a hit.  ..... And btw, the straw that broke the camel's back when Tepper fired Reich, was because he couldn't fix it in a week. One of the last issues that I remember was about Young's footwork. You know, I guess it is normal that 10 weeks into the season someone just realized, or finally accepted, that Young had major fundamentals issues. It took them a lot longer to realize it isn't an overnight fix. And my issues with Young were specifically over this stuff. Major rehab job, you don't pay what we paid for that. Hopefully he is 'fixed' and it 'took' and he doesn't go back into his little safe space of the old mechanics like he did week 1. If he hangs with the new, this is what you are working wth now. We just saw his ceiling.
