PghPanther

Cam had the ability at one time to carry the team with his running skills................and some down field passing and he did this when the Panthers had a better offensive line than today. His running skills of his youth and the willingness to take the abuse of hits he took over that time are in the past or else he will end up IR and retired again...... So what you have is a Cam who will need to be a more precise pocket passer, read defenses and hit check down point along with being an overall game manager........none of which he built his reputation on or was known for.... It is far too early to make a call on that for now.........but it will remain to be seen if he does that. What I saw out of the Wash game is that he still has some ability but his cross route passing timing is off (will that come in time or is it just an area that was never his primary focus/skill set) and he will go down rather than take a hit more often and much sooner than in the past. Right now he gives the Panthers their best option in winning a game but that isn't saying much not because of Cam himself as much as the whole team and coaching staff isn't playoff caliber........ I honestly believe a Brady or Rogers behind center on this team doesn't do much winning at this point.......in fact both might end up on IR this year if they played behind this oline. But getting back to the Cam deal................Try a thought experiment here.......imagine if last week Cam played for Wash and Taylor played for the Panthers..............who wins then? It could be a bit unnerving to think that switch would have changed who won if you are a Panthers fan........ I say have fun watching Cam play but if nothing happens the rest of this season or beyond if Cam is around next year don't be surprised.........In my opinion, the only way this team gets anywhere is if they develop a top oline and get a short yardage power running back to compliment the QB effort........our line sucks right now and CMC is not your answer........he'll only end up on IR again if you play him up to middle too much. CMC is closer to a Steve Smith type of player than a Jerome Bettis and needs to be used that way.

Fins 27 Cats 20 The Nostradamus of football has spoken.

Vinnie Testaverde was out of the league for a month in 2007 came in cold with the Panthers and beat Arizona 25-10 ..........he was 43 yrs old at the time........

He reminds me of a motivational speaker at an Amway or Mary Kay Cosmetic annual associates meeting.

Don't let your mental state live and die on a football team..........find a hobby or something to do in your spare time where you don't have to face such disappoint...

I'll preach it from day one that there are three problems..... 1) No priority to building a strong foundation in the offensive line....... 2) Creating a small fast and scheming defense that is exposed to getting punched in the mouth by an NFL caliber power running game...... 3) The coaching staff thinking the NFL can learn from the way we do things in college........ That's it.....the recipe for mediocracy in the NFL right there............and the Panthers are leading the way. Cam?.........he was a duel threat interesting QB in his day but became injured before he ever developed into a good pocket passing QB...as a result right now he's a outstanding back up QB but time will tell if he still has it in him to be a starter in the NFL anymore. But based on the above 3 problems I've stated he's not going to be able to find that out playing with the Panthers...........he makes for good show, pr and copy having him here for a while and he does give the Panthers the best chance to win but that's not saying much because of the ongoing pee wee league coaching and overall team development.

trade QBs on the field of play today and the Panthers win................oh wait they used to have that QB.....

Increase in ticket sales..... ....50% of fans think its the second coming of Panther football..... .....and 50% think they can't pass up a watching a train wreck live. and Tepper smiles at it all. Rhules thinks .....hmm......there's not enough room in the clubhouse for both of our egos. Me?...........I let Cam himself speak for what he is. When first drafted into the NFL Cam was asked what he wants his goal and legacy in the NFL.........(perhaps a HOF career with some SB rings?) Cam just answered.........."To be know as an iconic great sports entertainer" "I'm back........I'm back.......thank God almighty I'm back!" Discuss among yourselves..........

This dumpster fire of a franchise could hire Kaepernick after Cam at this point and I wouldn't be surprised.

The way I see it..........with PJ the Panthers have about a 2% chance of making the playoffs........with Cam about a 6% chance of making the playoffs. Cam does give them a better chance to win ...... ....but that's like saying a 400lb person losing 100lbs has a better chance to making it to the Olympics as a sprinter. Willy Mays was the greatest all around baseball player I ever saw play in person during his peak with the Giants.................no so much when he had to come back and play with the Mets at the end of his time in the sport.

Cam was a starter in NE in 2020........and they cut him for Mac Jones? What does that tell you? He was 7-8 with 8 TDs and 10 Interceptions. and now people are pumped up about him coming here again???

Rhule........."how do you tie the scarf again to do that?"................."wow that's great..show me one more time" Ohh hey, before I forget....... do you know we are getting a new state of the art practice field?"

Nope....what sells tickets is a brand new state of the art practice field.................LOL What a franchise............

This whole franchise is such a mess that I actually watch the games to see how bad the Panthers are and have a good laugh........... Now I'll have more to laugh about....................

"Sam hasn't played well enough to win, we want to give PJ a shot to see if he turns the ball over more than Sam" is more like it...........and reason why it wasn't brought up......

Stuck with an owner indefinitely and his head coach for a while............and a QB situation and O line that is a mess................ and an OC who sucks................ Do we need to continue?

QB situation is so bad that the some in the media are suggesting a "vinney" moment by drafting Cam back in for a one game performance.............LOL

This team couldn't beat the Lions right now.................. Panther easily have the worst head coach and OC in all the NFL............the worst O line and right now the worst QB situation of any team in the NFL right now. Panthers are so decisively bad they could tank........get the number #1 draft pick and end up taking a punter. Reality is now...............not past performance of fudging numbers. 31 - 10 Cardinals..............

and in May 2022............"One bad season last year and everyone is ready to send him to the guillotine. How about let's see how the 2022 season goes before we pass judgement?." Wash rinse and repeat..............

"Keep pondering" panther fans............"keep pondering"....... What a great franchise

But don't worry...............they are building a practice field that will be the envy of all the NFL in Rock Hill.......perhaps they can sell PSL (or private standing licenses) to that place? Wonderful.......what a great franchise..........

Don't forget.........in the future the Panthers are getting the best practice facility money can buy........... and the Pirates got the best baseball park money can buy...........how'd that work out for them?

One clown complaining about another.......... Anderson complains about the bad passes from Darnold but drops most of the good ones......... Look in mirror son............and watch you don't slither your skinny ass down the drain taking a shower...... An utter cllown show...... ........but hey Verstappen lengthened his championship lead in F1 today over Hamilton........

"Let's go Darnold"!!!!

There were more more complete passes in the F1 race in Mexico today than Sam had in the game.......... I said at the beginning of the year...........this team will not win more than 6 games this year..........CMC will never play in another meaningful game for the Panthers (meaning one that could mean the difference of making the playoffs or not.........I was right about Newton a few years back calling that same prediction).........and that Rhule would last 3 years top ......and at best Darnold is no more than a game manager.... ........I still stand by those predictions/claims. BTW........I said the Panthers would lose by at least two touchdowns in this game..... Why??? because I am the Nostradamus of football. Huh...........what?...............the Bills lost to the Jags today? uhh.............I guess I'm not the Nostradamus of football..........
