they had to be, there were defenders in the backfield before people could had time to get open.  i think one area Cam can improve on is anticipating when a wr will be open and throwing to that spot.  not saying he cant do it, but i think he can still improve, i think sometimes he waits to be sure someone is open rather than anticipating it.

 

Absolutely, Cam should learn to throw open his receivers. Like he needs to be able to learn to rocket the ball so fuging hard that it pierces the body of the defender so that our receivers can catch it.

There are two things that cause Cam to struggle.  Pressure in his face and when a team drops a lot of guys into coverage. 

 

When the O-line keeps him clean, his mechanics are good, and when that happens he's really, really good.  His stats back this up.  When he dosen't have a clean pocket or get pressure he's not as accurate.

 

When he's gets blized, he's really good.  He's good at finding his checkdown or who's open based on the blitz.  He eats up the blitz.  But when a team only rushes 4 or less he's not as good at finding the open man because he's has not mastered reading defenses yet.  And since our O-line sucks in the traditional running game we can't take advantage of all those defenders playing back with a solid running attack.

 

I've said in another post that we lost to the 49'ers because of our offense line.  That's the big advantage they had over us.  Their line is really good.  I don't think people understand just how weak our interior running game is because of our line. 

 

Just like the two DT on the D-line helped the whole defense.  A good O-line is going to help the whole offense.  If Cam has time he's shown he can be deadly accurate no matter who's at WR.  Gettlemen from the first day said you build the team inside out.  Don't cry foul when that's what he does.

The line needs upgrading but the receives we have are not capable of catching getting seperation or running good routes, I've watched all season and I'm not sure why people can't see it, cam holds on waiting and the line poor as it is collapses and he's sacked or picked off because he forces the issue! Not sure why we can't double dip at Oline and receiver

Well I do know that in the 4th quarter or it may have been the 3rd but Cam got sacked back to back less than a half second of him securing the ball.  That didn't seem like he had plenty of time to me, and that's just one scenario that stands out to me.

 

Shula ball or encroachment. Shula having an offense that snaps the ball at the last second makes it easy for the opposing D-Line to get a perfect jump every play.

The press conference was fine. I wanted to see our coaching staff improve, not just the status qua. At least Ron said they will take a look at themselves and try to improve. Hopefully that means Ron telling Shula to get his ass in gear.

Gettleman basically said the running back position was a thorn in his side.

I don't know if it was his intention but he kind of made it sound like Greg Hardy is tough to deal with and maybe not worth the money.

I think it has more to do with Rosenhaus being Hardy's agent

Cam getting sacked happens more often from receivers not getting open and being stuck in the box than you're seeing. Hell with Cam's ability to keep the play alive you would think we would see more deep plays, but it never happens. Our receivers do not come open, there's examples in every game we've played this year.

 

Our O-Line will improve regardless of draft picks simply from resigning key players, and getting back healthy players. Our offensive weapons are only going to keep fading. 

 

OL gives you a run game, a run game gives you playaction, and you have Steve Smith, Greg Olsen, and especially Ted Ginn ready to feast on defenses who cannot stop the run..

 

Add a 2nd TE who can stretch the field and you just realistically fixed more holes than you're suggesting.

i would have to go back to other games to be sure, but at least in the SF game, the first half they were dropping 7 and 8 guys in coverage and he lit them up.  as opposed to pressure up the middle in the second half, we can think of every game we lost this season and see thats where the struggles cam from.  wharton sufficed but thats about it, we had make-shift crack team of guys rotating at RG.

Their O-Line is much better, their receivers are much better, and their running backs are much better.

I want to improve our WR corps too, but let's take another look at a stat from the SF game...

 

Cam's QB rating under pressure was 2. Cam's QB rating when he was not pressured was 133.

 

Time and time again we have seen Cam pass as well as any QB in the league from an accuracy standpoint, decision making standpoint, and any other way you want to measure it, when he has a clean pocket.

 

Pretending like OL are just a bunch of fat guys to help us run the ball for 4 yards a pop is taking a very limited view of their contributions.

 

and then give him a running game to top it off...

Good point that happens more often than not.  I hate that as well.  Defenders do watch the clock but I think that comes from Cam changing the plays at the line because he sees something he doesn't like.  

Shula ball or encroachment. Shula having an offense that snaps the ball at the last second makes it easy for the opposing D-Line to get a perfect jump every play.

that is a solid point, i would like to see some more hurry-up every once in a while.  maybe if we get some back end help on defense, we might have the confidence to be a little more aggressive/up-tempo.
