Is that great? No. Is that better than the 64th graded shite-show they had at the position before? Yes
To be fair, I bet Cam has escaped from several of his pass blocking blunders. I imagine it could be worst than four.

Michael Oher can't give up sacks if Mike Remmers' guy already made the sack

Oh absolutely.
But as the guy above me stated, he's escaped from more blunders by the horrible Remmers than he has blunders by Oher.
Oher is no All Pro, but he's done a pretty damn solid job this year. He's easily earned his contract (which I believe was for about $3 million this year and next).
One reason could be that he's back with the OL coach he was with when he first entered the league. His first 2 years in the league, Oher was pretty proficient with the Ravens and his then OL coach, John Matsko. Matsko left the Ravens for the Panthers in 2011 and Oher became "bad" all of a sudden. Now he's back with Matsko and all of a sudden he's good/decent again.

– Possibly the biggest surprise this year for the Panthers offense wasn’t Newton’s breakout season, as he’s had stretches of high quality football in the past. No, it’s the fact that they somehow got Michael Oher (+3.4) to perform like a competent left tackle in pass protection. Newton’s blindside protector hadn’t had a positive pass blocking grade since his rookie year of 2009, and even then, it came mostly at right tackle. This year, he finished with a +7.5 pass blocking grade, the 11th best in the NFL, and on Sunday, he didn’t allow a single pressure. He still has his struggles in run blocking, but the Panthers couldn’t be happier with his performance after trudging through a season with Byron Bell a year ago.
