If 2011-2015 Cam went to any respectable franchise bro would've been getting the same love Mahomes getting. Certainly not the passer Pat is but his ability to just be stunning every game every year woulda been amplified by being on a roster that looked out for him.

The one thing I always see underlooked on Cam was his arm strength, esp during the span you mentioned. I see people mention an ARod or Pat or whoever, Cam could put a ball wherever anyone else could, and had an OD fastball. And remember, HE DIDNT STEP INTO THESE THROWS.

and yeah that throwing motion probably like Markelle shooting motion back when. Anything resembling his OG motion is likely unfeasible due to pain and the structural damage. He needs to get that fixed before the ankle now that I think about it
The problem with Cam though was while he could make every throw, he could also miss every throw too. Even during his MVP season a lot of yards were left on the field due to his inaccuracy. But to do what he did with his lack of weapons still was amazing. It's wild to me that no one will give him a chance, especially these franchise with garbage QBs.

I hope he doesnt follow Ron to Washington just cause thats who he is familiar with. If he's got no other offers I get it. However, doing the same thing again in another location :picard:

I agree but I feel like he might end up in DC after all. He probably won't get a lot of starting offers due to his iffy health plus he's comfortable with Ron and his longtime on again/off again girl is from DC and recently moved back there I think. I see him wanting to be close to her and his kids up there.

Damn. Well...lets hope the OC knows how to use if he goes there. Just a shame we never got to see Cam with a high level OC (Norv was at the end)

I think that’d be career suicide imo. One of the most inept franchises out there, going from Jerry Richardson (who looks like a GOAT relatively) to Tepper to Snyder would be the murders row of trash
