I agree with Race. He has touch on the deep pass, which is hard to coach, develop or learn. He can be crazy accurate, but yes he makes some bad decisions when he's trying to extend a play and needs to just throw it out more often. He also carries/holds the ball in a perilous manner and is thus prone to fumbalaya.
But Race is correct that he tends to come back from those things with a vengeance, which separates him from 98% of college QBs, who only get worse after a mistake with shaken confidence.
Penix makes fewer mistakes but Cam can run it and that changes things. All things being equal, I'd take Penix. If I had a great receiver or two, I'd take Penix. If I had good but not great receivers, I'd take Ward, who can create more on the broken play and definitely buy you more time.
The Sanders boy ought to be in this conversation. Maybe a perfect blend of the two. Kid can throw and is also crazy accurate. I'd love for Sanders Jr. to be a Cane.

This clip tells me all I need to know. Cam is the man
