At least he wasn't breaking the bank but I would have liked someone new, as much to give a fresh perspective and to make training camp a bit more of a competitive atmosphere. Obviously Bryce is starting but this move feels like throwing in the towel on the season if Bryce returns to "form" a bit...

He can say what he feels, but he's not saying "the previous year, the team wasn't very good" he directly called his teammates out and in a way that is flat-out not true. "You are your record"? Oh ok, he's only had 3 winning seasons, but in my mind he isn't a loser, and I bet he isn't in his either - cause football is a team sport and wins and losses are on the team, even when one really bad player (Jimminy Pickles) can basically screw over everything. And this comes on the heels of his thing about the MVP, which is fine, but also selfish. His teammates consistently went to bat for him... Just feels like he's more about himself.

I'll always love what Cam brought to the Panthers but this is spot on. He's doubling down on a bad take. "You are what your record is", really? We all know how bullshit that is, and Cam's number of winning seasons is exactly evidence of that IMO. A lot of Cams' teammates have been extremely supportive of him and helped fight the narrative he was a selfish player, and then he comes out and does this? Just such bad form.

He commented directly on their preparation etc too. And he wasn't general, he was talking about HIS teammates. If you say, "ya know when you're drafted early it isn't usually to a good team...etc etc". Ok. But the team he was drafted into was very strong on offense and has many of the Panthers all time greats. As to nobody commenting on him saying he wasn't a great teammate or his personal podcast - 1) Cam has a general reputation around the NFL many of us felt was undeserved for being selfish. And yethe is now saying this poo which feeds into that. 2) He's making headlines cause it's controversial. Self reflection isn't controversial so no it won't get headlines. Honestly it's disappointing.

Cam can feel disrespected by the organization but he's shitting on a bunch of incredible players with these comments. It just feels like it's for attention...

The quote is a few posts above yours. Yes it is ridiculous. The offense had many great pieces. The D wasn't deep but had contributors. Cam knew what he was saying. The players weren't losers; their fuging coach gave up and played the worst QB the NFL had seen (until Bryce's rookie year, lol).

Every team has stories but as curious as I am I kinda hope these stay buried. Cam should apologize and straighten up his references to his old teammates. If he's pissed at the org, be pissed at the org.

Hit it on the nail right here. Cam was, by all accounts, a great teammate and it feels like his recent takes seem more designed to get clicks than anything... But the worst part is, his takes are exactly the attitude his haters said he had, but that imo wasn't reflected at the time.

Cam's been very self serving in his comments lately. The roster he came into has more talent than many of today's bottom feeders - including us. Pickles was kind enough to deliver us the #1 pick because virtually any other QB would have kept us out of that slot. The defense was very weak his first year but he came into a pretty good offensive situation tbh. It just got worse the longer he was here unfortunately.

Come on man that title, lol

Our OL was one of the better overall lines in football last year ... We do need depth, and our DL is legit garbage but the OL was the best unit in the team by far. Ultimately we still need weapons, tho I'm not big on giving up #8 to get someone that's likely only here for a year or two.

This is probably the best news possible for our offense this offseason. Early in the year he'll provide an important degree of continuity and we know he's helped Coker and others. This is huge for the receiving corps. Yes, we need other weapons regardless but veteran presence is so important and he brings it in spades.

Disappointing and I think most of us fans would gladly trade that mvp for a Superbowl win. But 1) Cam doesn't always express himself well and sometimes that makes him come off poorly when his intentions are different (I don't think that's this but ... ), 2) He's a pundit now and I have a suspicion that Cam 10 years ago would have said something different. Finally, whatever he says now that may sound selfish, doesn't change how much he did for the team, so... Meh.

Young is starting next year because he played well the second half of the year overall and he's under contract.... We don't have the capto get a FA upgrade, and we won't be in position to draft one (in large part due to his play tbh). So he's it, and it's because of his play - if he stunk it up when Dalton went down, we would be looking for a new starter this offseason any way we could get one... Now, the trade we made has put us in a position we can't really invest in a replacement anyway but thankfully for us his play end of last season means we don't need to.

I also don't really get the feeling that's what he and Swift would want, either, and you're absolutely right he wouldn't want to take away from his teammates.

I think Philly had 2 more wins than Washington.

How did this Eagles offense not hang 70 on us? Goddamn

I don't mind it past the LoS, to be honest - we were beneficiaries of that a couple times this year, lol. But the tush push in particular just kinda sucks to watch haha

They should just prevent players on O from pushing each other behind the LoS or something

Yeah, I'd never heard that rule read aloud before... I think Luvus plays were also different from the hard count on the last one... So shouldn't have been grouped together...

I think the point is a defense could keep encroaching on the goal line to just indefinitely prevent a score. But this was, imo, different. There's just no way to stop that play at the 1 unless the O makes a mistake

Feels like if the Eagles get a TD here the game is over...

He could turn out to be a great player but it seems unlikely to happen here.

yup - how many of our 2nd / 3rd round picks are even starters since 2021? BC and Tremble are at least getting playing time and are solid depth, but beyond them, we've got... DJ Johnson...? Other teams routinely find quality starters - or better - in the 2nd and 3rd rounds. We're just happy if they're still on the team 3 years later, lol

I don't think he was considered by many in the same class as Luck and Lawrence... But I could be wrong.
