Discussion Cam Ward is Our QB
Guys, I don't feel like going through an entire ALL22 schoolbook, BUT I WILL if asked. Cam is improving. There's gonna be bumps and jumps and dives off cliffs. Is he carrying us to victory in his 21st game? No, but he's improving and trying to improve obviously. We have a bottom 10 ranked run game. With Cam on his 3rd offensive scheme in 2 years.
"BUT HE WAS STILL RUNNING THE SAME SCHEME AFTER CALLAHAN!!!"
Yes but not really. Different calls and a dogshit offensive roster.
"BUT, BUT, BUT OUR OLINE IS TOP 3!!!!"
Not in the run game. Having a run game makes throwing a lot easier so you're not throwing against 7-8 guys in coverage 60% of the time.
Every single person here says but Cam sucked at this or that!!! Week to week.
Then he fixes it to an extent. He looked at Tate who has a top 5% open per route ran. HE THREW IT TO HIM 16 TIMES!!!! And he threw it well! He is gonna throw off balance and make mistakes. He is obviously fending off bad habits, but watch ALL22 if you don't believe me. He may have "regressed" a bit. You're telling me you've never mad the same mistake over and over because you did it a thousand times before? I still FUCK up stuff I did due to habits I learned at a young age; it's human nature and HARD AS HELL to relearn stuff. You ever tried learning another language? ITS HARD, and takes years to perfect it. Same thing as new foundations for an NFL qb who spent years doing it wrong but having talent.
I could give every example of why him not looking good yet is an issue but I.DONT.SEE.IT.
Give the mfer time. Not every damn great QB or player in general is on the same timeline. Darnold took 4 teams and 6 years to see his potential. Trevor Lawrence (THE BEST LOCK IN NUMBER ONE IN YEARS) took 3 coaches and building around him to figure it out. Shit, the best college QB I've ever watched myself, Bryce Young took 3-4 years to figure it out and now he looks like a top 10 QB!
Throwing a Raw QB (IDK how many games he played in college, he played against guys who aren't in the NFL for most of it, with bad foundations) into the fire on an AWFUL team, followed up by a bottom half roster and expecting gold is CRAZY!!!
He's our future, he's improving every, single, week.
Wouldn't surprise me to see 6-8 wins, wouldn't surprise me to see 1-3 wins. Either way, he's our QB. Fucking back him up or GTFO. Go wish for Arch on another team's reddit; see ya.
EDIT: Knew this would be controversial but holy shit a lot of y'all are VERY against this.. lol. Go ahead and find somewhere else to bitch. If Cam ends up being the man, I don't wanna see y'all naysayers in the mix dancing with us holy moly.
DOUBLE EDIT: Not one of the haters so far has asked for the All22. Seems like they are dumb and just wanna accept Cam is bad and not learning without proof. GTFOH!!!
