You have to change your gameplan to account for him offensively and defensively. You can't play Cam the same way you would a pocket passer. That is changing the game. Now, that said, that doesn't mean that will work on the NFL level consistently over a long period of years. You can change the game but once folk adapt, if you have not evolved you will be left behind.
Cam's opinion is biased and as an NFL MVP, and NFCCG winner, a Heisman winner and a National Championship game winner he can say his opinion and I don't have to like it but I have to respect his right to speak it
He has every right to state his opinion, but his place in football is somewhat irrelevant. I have just as much right to oppose his opinon and I haven't played a down in any organized football league. In fact, that his opinion is so off in this regard should be enough proof that their resume carries little weight.
Saying someone shouldn't have an opinon because they didn't play, Ike weren't very successful, is stupid. Lol everyone is entitled to an opinon - whether we like it or not. Most "analyst" or talking heads, never played anytbjng outside of high school.
but just as I think someone who didn't play can have a dumbass opinon, or poor understanding of football as a whole. Same can be said for guys who played. Just like normal jobs - a lot of players are dumb as a rock.
I've worked with guys who have years of experience and a masters, they were worthless and fired. People need to stop putting a lot of these ex players on a pedestal.
like lebron said "most guys in the nba don't really know how to play basketball". That goes for football too
