Cams injury riddled season.

While perusing the internet for Panthers/NFC south info. (hey, it a long offseason, and im board. ) The majority of the fans and pundits look at our 7-8-1 record, as being somewhat indicitive of our future success.

Many assert that our lack of movement in FA and not drafting for need, that nothing should change that much from last years team performance wise.

I realize that its all just blind conjecture and peoples opinion. Thats not what's aggravating about it.

Very FEW ever mention our qb played most of the entire season with a gimpy ankle, cracked ribs and a broken vertebra.

How fun is it going to be when the narrative that many advance about the Panthers potential this season, is shattered and they are left trying to explain how Carolina walked away with their 3rd straight NFCS championship, and maybe more? Is it September yet?

Bad ass post, but i have to ask....did you use a thesaurus on this one? No idea what half those words meant.

Or i have had too many.

lol. My wife has said the same thing. She said the reason she can't ever win any arguments with me, is that I use too many big words. I said what, words like the, but, and or it? In retrospect my attempt at humor was a big mistake.

  I honestly use to think that spprts writers were just to lazy to actually do research. However, I am beginning to think that they just genuinely hate us. Which Is fine, it doesn't make me mad. 

   I just believe this because they seem to know absolutely NOTHING about the Panthers or their players. I don't think it's laziness, they have all the info in the world about other teams. They just seem disinterested. I'm not sure if it is because we are a small market team or what.

   They are blind to a healthy Cam, an almost complete roster switch up on defense last year that was a major factor in us getting it together, two 1,000 yard receivers (rookie and a TE), return of Ginn (Returner and field stretcher on O), sensational defense before adding a vet known for making turnovers, and a rookie that fit the scheme, difference when Stewie is our lead back, revamped STs squad that was well below average, and a Jimmy Graham-like versatile receiver (which moves Cotch to a more appropriate role where he could flourish), and Brown also in a role more suited for him.......I could really go on.....

Of course they hate us.  When we drafted Cam, they couldn't care less because they thought he would be a bust.  After doing freakish things on a GOAT trajectory, instead of accepting/embracing the inevitable, it's head in the sand time for the masses.  Denial-not just a river in Egypt.

Good post. I cannot think of another player in my time watching the NFL, that so many in the media, seem to actively root against. Is validating their pre draft critique of Cam so important, that many are willing to compromise their journalistic integrity to continue this false narrative?

If Cam is fully healthy this year and his revamped line can protect him, it's going to be hilarious hearing all the pundits say he has finally "matured" and "learned the game" when he is shredding defenses.

      Chris Long: Bryce Young Went Toe To Toe With Patrick Mahomes

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I don't think should be seen as an insult, legitimately. Teddy's floor was consistently a good game manager to his ceiling of border-line top 10 QB who's arm strength didn't blow you away but could make all the throws and generally made good decisions and had some sneaky athleticism.  Teddy started on quite a few teams. He had a good start to his career, had a horrific injury that could have ended his career, came back and played himself into being a starter, got a contract here (and subsequently became another victim of Tepper's impetuousness), and then started games for a few other teams. Teddy could have been a franchise QB had he not suffered a freak injury, and then he just never ended up in another stable situation. He still had a good NFL career that could have been great without that injury. Teddy before that injury did look like a franchise QB, and I dont think that's a bad comp for Young nor an insult in terms of what his career could be based on that comparison.

      Absolutely the wrong take. We have to run and gun. We have zero post presence. We just have to make shots. We just can't hit water from a boat tonight and we're turning it over to boot. Then you have a poor shooting opponent shooting lights out.  Looks like a long season ahead of us though if Hubert doesn't adapt to this roster. We have to play a pressure trapping D and get out in transition because we aren't beating anyone in the half court.
