I admit it: I'm more relieved that Cam and the team showed out in the 4th quarter than I would've been with a win.

Premise One: We're done, done, done. We're fucking done. Forget all your gung-ho batman lunchbox bullshit about winning the division. We're done. We are 3-7-1 and the Vikings, Browns, and Saints are going to stomp mudholes in our supple, well-oiled sphincters. We're going to finish 5-10-1. Get over it.

 

Premise Two: With a 5-10-1 record, Rivera is going to lose his job. Gettleman will clean house. Many of you hate him for it already, and many of you will hate him for it in January, but he will wipe the slate clean on both sides of the ball and on both sides of the field. Offense and defense, players and coaches. He's going to assemble a new staff and separate the wheat from the chaff.

 

Based on those two premises:

 

Everyone left on the roster after Gettleman nukes it will be there because they earned it. And today, Cam Newton led this team on two game-winning drives in as many minutes in spite of being forced to play with a couple of WWII vets at receiver and their wives at offensive line. We didn't win, but I was sitting at the bar chugging IPAs and posting in the gameday thread and I saw every single idiot that called for Cam Newton to be benched and insisted that "he's done in Carolina lol" and sweet hot god damn if Cam Newton didn't open every one of those mouths and take a long piss down every one of those throats. It was fuging beautiful. I wanted to punch all of you in the crotch, but Cam effectively did it for me.

Conclusion:

 

Cam Newton will get the long-term contract he deserves in the offseason and come back in 2015 with professional-quality offensive line, and all of you will thank sweet heebus jeebus christ that that fourth quarter went down like that.

Cam also had some horrible passes. He's very inconsistent still in his 4th year. My guess is he plays out the 5th year option and them the new staff decides then.

That's where the staff and personnel come in.

KillerKat said it earlier, but you don't regress as a quarterback after those first two seasons at the alarming rate Cam has this season without a complete tearing down of all his personnel and a change in scheme that minimizes his strengths and tries to make him into something he's not.

Cam and Luke are trying their asses off out there.  

 

However to their detriment, the team isn't built to be a winner and we have bad coaches.  

 

The offense is due for a heavy makeover and we get a new OC.  That is the VERY least at this very point even though I'd fire Rivera no questions asked.

Today was yet another example of why these two are a bad combo.

Cam plays balls to the wall, Ron plays balls in a jar.

Bottom Line: Management needs to find a coaching staff that can maximize the abilities Cam brings to the team.

If we are going to invest in Cam, we need to bring in legitimate coaches for him. The only decent coach he played for was Chud and the only reason he was considered poor, looking back on it now, is because of the defense. Think about is 24-7, 24-7, 21-0, 21-7. There were many more leads we have up but ultimately Chud put us in a place to win. Moral, if cam is going to be signed to a long term deal, do not do it in the name of "this is a guy we are going to build around" and do the exact opposite.
