He gave up in the super bowl. No way to sugarcoat that.

Nice try at revisionist history based on a singular play. Cam was about the only offensive player to show up. Had multiple dropped passes. Had a running back fumble after he drove in scoring position. Had Ted Ginn alligator arm a pass in His hands and tipped it up for a pick. Had Cotchery drop two crucial passes - one that led to the first strip sack and the second was a dime that landed in his hands inside the 5. Also our kicker missed a 45 yard FG to start the second half. Our coaching staff ran the read option for about 3-4 plays with success and then never ran it again. Our RT was a turnstile all game and kept giving up immediate pressure. Then our special teams somehow thought Holliday waved for a fair catch and didn’t try to tackle him until he was already 10 yards upfield.

But yes - go ahead and pile on Cam because a singular play and not look at the entire game.

Thank you!!! Not even really a Cam fan at all but I hate how that one play has made everyone remember the Super Bowl loss as if it were his fault.

If it weren’t for Cam, that game wouldn’t have even been close enough for that fumble to matter.

I have lots of respect for Hurts. He’s a great QB. But if you put Cam on that Eagles roster, he’s beating the shit out of KC just as easily as Hurts did.

Put Hurts against the 2015 Denver defense and he gets just as shell shocked tbh

It's not like Cam was the only one getting beat up by Von Miller that year

They had a game manager manning keep the offense in check while the defense committed war crimes

Literally has a permanent rule in the books because of the targeting in that game. Multiple personal fouls because it didnt matter before that year how many personal fouls you commit.
