Cam Lewis and 4D chess

[transplantbillsfan]

Guessing he's now our 4th outside CB, right?

 

He'd been playing pretty much backup Safety all year with the ability to hop in as the slot and nickel CB. Now with Savage won't it just be a seamless transition to move him into Ingram's role? And isn't he better than Ingram? Sure seems like it to me. Ingram wasn't even active the last 3 games.

 

And Darius Slay doesn't play Special Teams, Cam Lewis is a special teams ace.

 

Plus, Darnell Savage was a pretty productive Packers DB who really just wasn't re-signed more for money issues than flat out not wanting him... sound familiar?

 

So in the process of Slay refusing to report Beane upgrades our 4th CB and Safety depth while finding a possible future starter after this trial run.

Agree.  Plus for a little guy Cam hits like a Mack truck!

Cam Lewis would have been the difference for the Chiefs playoff game had he started and played the whole thing last year. He glued to Kelce and the middle playing a hybrid double nickel

[NeverOutNick]

Actually watch  Lewis play. He consistently is out of position or gets beat for a big gain. Watch most 3rd and longs and see who’s the one giving up the first down. 

[GunnerBill]

Cam has been playing as our dime actually most of the last two years. And has played reasonably well. 

 

Would not want to rely on him at outside corner.

So well that we still give up most every 3rd and long when he’s on the field

Cam has been pretty good this year and last in the dime role. He had a horrible game against the Buccs (when he was playing more nickel for Taron who was out) but otherwise he has been pretty reliable and is certainly not responsible for every 3rd down or whatever it is you claimed.

He’s a liability in coverage. He’s not as awful Hamlin was at safety but he’s definitely the weak link in the secondary now and you’ll see it tomorrow when Burrow looks his way when we have 4 corners on the field.

…despite having a good game the week before against the Chiefs when filling in for Johnson.

If they feel they need another outside corner, they'll bring Dane Jackson up from the PS.  Not saying this is a great solution, but he's there when/if the need arises.

Someone here doesn't like Lewis.......its OK.  You do what you gotta do.  Personally I have low expectations for this game.....makes the day go by much better.  I don't focus on one individual when there are 10 others out there with him.....

[JoshAllin]

People already forgot about that Houston game and the unnecessary td right before the half. Take those points out and bills are sailing

Agreed. Cam is a reasonable tackler, and he does well keeping plays in front of him. 
But he’s not quick or fast enough to be anything more than aback up DB.
