I’ve watched some of Lance...is it the arm strength you guys are all gushing over? I don’t see much else, athletic talent? His recovers are always open seems like, not a lot of accuracy or going through reads. I guess this is what it means to be raw?
 

But do these traits really go well with the Brady offense or is everyone expecting either Lance to learn or Brady to change. I’m genuinely curious, I don’t watch much college just looking at QB games/highlights.

The property I'm buying would've been over a million in the town I lived in back in CO (mainly due to the land, the house itself would've probably been in the $700k range). The house I sold for over $550k would do well to bring $275k here.

Lol yep. My house cost me $375,000 in SLC. This house in Charlotte? Easily $250k or less with more land.

I really REALLY hate the fuging west housing costs. Seattle, Cali, Colorado, AZ is getting up there. Hell even Vegas  is getting dumb expensive. Boise is still nice but it’s only a matter of time.

Montana, NM, and Wyoming are all that’s left on the entire west side of the US...but there is not poo out there.

I have a great job out here but you can bet your ass my sights are set on the east coast for retirement.

you should look at Austin's real estate market, Charlotte pales in comparison

Charlotte pales to pretty much any city. It’s funny people freak out...these are great prices for a city like Charlotte.

It’s not really either or, the defense and the oline are equally abysmal. And they’re both very important.

The difference is we went all defense in the draft last year and expect the extremely young defense to get better even by doing nothing. 

The oline on the other hand has zero investment. We’ve seen this movie play out before...

WRs have never been important for super bowl and deep playoff contenders. See cam 2015.

What we need is what these teams all have in common. An oline. See cam 2015 again.

If the trade includes defensive players, might need to focus on drafting what all those teams had in common as well, a defense.

WR is literally the last position to look at.

If we would’ve traded 2 firsts for Brian Burns or 2-3 for cam in 2011 we’d all be happy and say it turned out alright....

but it turned out alright anyways without having to trade anything. Don’t know what you coulda had since it was traded.

seems to me all the recent franchise qbs were drafted not traded for

I’d rather have confidence the FO can find an good qb with 3 years worth of first and second round picks, considering some sort of strategy of moving up to get their guy with those combination of picks than just trade them

something tells me if they’re too inept to do that with all that capital - we’re screwed regardless

Yep. Told yall that stuff about him not coming here because of Cam was dumb.

Everyone except butthurt creepy cam fans already knew that was dumb.

Underestimation of just how awful the Panthers team is as a whole. Average of overall defense and offense rankings put them in bottom 3rd of the league, and not the top at that.

TB needs a great team around him like the Saints to succeed.

But it’s a two year deal. It’s not like it was a franchise crippling move, far from it. And there was no draft capital involved so in reality it means close to nothing considering the options.

should be a good lesson for our green coaches and management, and it appears they’re learning quick, Tepper does not want another managing QB

Watson is better that Wilson?

lol only on the huddle

I mean is this a joke? He was released well into FA when most teams had already committed to their Qb for the year. Most teams don't wait until the end of May or even June to get their starting Qb. Why do people act like this was a "normal" situation Cam was put intocthis years? I mean look at the offense he played in Damiere Byrd was his #1 Wr. If the Pat's had a bonafide #1 and a healthy Edleman Cam's stats would look A LOT better. 

Its just funny to me that people use that season to determine if Cam can still be a starting QB in the NFL or not. He had a month to learn his offense and was throwing to a bunch of UDFA ST players And he still win more games than the Carolina Panthers with a MUCH MUCH WEAKER supporting cast. If Cam Newton is done then Matt Rhule doesn't deserve to coach another down of football if he couldn't even win more games than a bum Cam Newton with a month to learn a new system with dogsh*t weapons.

Cam had the 4th ranked oline in the NFL last year. The Panthers were 18.

Cam had the 7th ranked defense in the NFL last year. The Panthers were 18.

Cam had the 1st ranked special teams in the NFL last year. The Panthers ranked around 19-20.

Cam had Belicheck, the GOAT. The Panthers had a first year college coach.

The entire Planthers team had to learn a new system not just one player.

Cam is still a free agent even as you said ‘teams do not wait around to get their QB’. FA hasn’t started but teams still have plans in place. No one’s include Cam.

On the flip side the Panthers had much better weapons.

There is a reason Cam won more games and it’s not because Rhule is a shitty coach or Cam isn’t done.

This makes sense to me. I take it as Cam wanted probably a 4 year 100 mil+ ‘commitment’ extension to play and thankfully they were intimidated and didn’t do it.

Who cares and why are people giving this kid attention because attention is exactly what he wanted.  

Because he was never ignored in the first place.

LOL you know EXACTLY what I'm talking about. You don't have to know someone personally in order to determine if you "like them or not." 

I'm not about to explain to you why Cam, in this situation, had the right to check that clown of a kid. 

If you can't figure it out then that's on you.

actually, personally, I do. 

you clearly didn’t comprehend when I said I am not against something a grown man decides to do - it means I’m not arguing right or wrong,  I’m saying ignoring the kid would’ve been better for him and the kid

if you don’t believe me look at all the poo that’s become of this, if he was ignored it wouldn’t even be known and I’m sure the kid would feel stupid

Seems like sarcasm might’ve surpassed you, but I’ll also say, if Tom Brady or Philip Rivers did the same thing, they’d be praised for their tenacity and and competitive spirit

I get what you’re saying, but ‘responded to it perfectly’ as people are putting it is way off 

google cam Newton and this poo is everywhere no matter what you think of it

had it been handled ‘perfectly’ (ignored) no one would even know and the kid would prolly learn dumbassery won’t earn him any attention

no, he didn’t go all out and I don’t think what he responded with was anything worth talking about or people should really are but the bottom line is he should know better getting this attention

for the record Cam isn’t being scrutinized, almost everyone is on his side for telling off and ingrate but imma have to disagree if Brady did this poo he’d be scrutinized more and for me look just as foolish

Lol he’s a professional athlete, not Nelson Mandela.  He didn’t curse, he didn’t hit the kid.  He didn’t scream.  Are you really hating on Cam for this?

is that what you do when kids are being a dumbass? Yell, curse and hit the kid? lol gimme a break

You don't even like Cam, so no matter what he would've done, you would've been against it. 

You are a disrespectful moron just like that kid in the video.

Tf are you talking about I watch athletes for entertainment not determining whether I ‘like them’ or not -that’s dumb, I don’t know these people

I’m not against anything, he’s a grown man, but it’s basic knowledge among adults to just ignore kids, what exactly do you do on the daily when kids talk poo? Fight them? Argue with them? Lol

I’m genuinely curious as to what the logic is to give them the attention they want when they’re acting like a moron like this...enlighten me.

Let's face it, that argument was entertaining.

As for Cam, he's not getting enough credit for how well he handled that. 

That said, if he had a chance to do it over, maybe that kid doesn't HAVE a dad. Maybe that's why he's acting like that. But Cam handled that really f*cking well.

no he didn’t lol

handling it well would be ignoring him not screaming I’m rich 5x at a kid without hair on his nuts

kids do this poo all day long, they never feel they’re listened to because they’re not, 99% of the time kids have literally nothing worthwhile to say

if adults never ignored kids’ stupidity there would be a big problem

doesn’t matter really because Cam is irrelevant now but people who say he handled it perfectly make me think kids’ dumbassery would actually trigger you people, that’s sad

What significant mistakes do you feel he’s made?

Keeping Marty too long (or at all). This equates to a lot of player/contract mistakes 

Keeping Rivera too long.

Keeping Cam too long (but this may fall on Hurney).

That said he was still learning. People wanted instant gratification and ignored the learning curve. Everyone makes mistakes, it happens. It’s about what you do about them. Franchises like the Browns, Jets, Cowboys to the extent keep making them. That’s the difference. The jury is still out on Tepper.

It appears to me however he is a quick learner and changes things quickly when a mistake is made. I believe the slow moves in the beginning were part of his earning curve NOT his normal way of handling things.

I’m ok with it. We’ll see year 5-6 what he’s really about.

OK, here we are on Feb 21--isn't it rather telling that Cam does not seem to be in any conversations--during the offseason of the QB?  I hate that for him---if RR had used him correctly, he could still be playing well.  Great guy (if you ever met him) but I wanted him out because I have never seen a QB take a beating like he took for 8 years here. 

I would love to see him come to camp here as #81, trying out for TE job---but that won't happen

It was telling when no one offered poo for him last season and he played for vet min and will probably get another vet min job as a backup this season.

This is just confirmation.

He had a great career, I don’t feel bad for him. It’s too bad but plenty of good QBs or ones with potential get fuged by a shitty organizations (or multiple) Luck, Rivers, you could argue Romo, Watson, D. Care, argument for Marino maybe even RG3, maybe Campbell, V. Young, Pennington, A. Smith...list goes on and on.

Fact is a great, franchise QB simply cannot overhaul a consistently horrible franchise. There is very very few examples of this happening. Cam being one of them.

Yea he’ll come to a worse organization and worse oline at age 32 in order to show he can compete at age 35. 

lol

Dolphins are going to get him if he’s traded. Panthers simply can’t offer as much to the Texans or a better situation to Watson. It is what it is.

Derp

The oline played great the first half of games. Then checked out at half time. Where is the stats for that? That poo is awful.

Add in Moton played at a high level and Okung did too when he was in.

And they still ranked #18 in the NFL.

It’s a bigger problem than people think. TB sucks yea but it’s just fuging lazy to say the oline isn’t that big of a problem.

It’s actually worse than people think.
