Cam could have done this early in his career, he had more weapons at WR his rookie and 2nd year. Play calling killed those years.
I disagree. Cam, like a lot of truly elite athletes, tried to rely on his individual athletic ability far to quickly early in his career. It didn't work as well as it did in college because well, it is the NFL. Everyone is a truly elite athlete.
To Cam's great credit, he learned from the experience. Vick never did. RG 3 hasn't, and it looks like JFF might not either.

Not saying to this level, but remember his first two games he threw for over 400 yards in each game. He was surrounded by better talent at both WR and RB his first two years. Cam has improved in the pocket, but he still has a lot of passes dropped by their WRs.
