Cam Newton goal line sack is on him.

Yeah, that was a bad one. Still wish we had just lined up and ran the ball three times from the one. You have cam and J stew..  Let them do what they do 


Yep, should have pounded it in on four straight plays if we needed to. That's who we are, I hate when we get cute at the worst possible time.

I remember when we ran that EXACT play last year (I forgot against who), but Cam ultimately came all the way back to his 3rd read with a defender in his face and layed it out perfectly to Dickson. Cam just isn't seeing the field as good as last year. Partly is due to O-line, other part is due to lack of focus and pre-snap reads. Just hasn't been going through his progressions quick this year.

Ed Dickson all alone in the end zone for an easy one. Cam keyed in on Olsen.

Yes, even Cam Newton makes mistakes like every other NFL QB.

Damn it.

But how do you know that the play design didn't make Olsen and Tolbert (also going out for a pass in the flat, but held up by the defense) his #1 and #2 reads?  If they were, how was he supposed to go to #3 (Dickson) with the pressure coming up in his face and the unseen pressure coming from his backside?

Yes, this well could have been Cam's "bad" read.  But are you sure the play design didn't contribute to the failure?

Cam locked on.

He has to be quicker, especially when the O line is suspect.  This is an NFL MVP, top 5 paid QB, 6 year vet we are talking about here.  The play was there, and Cam missed it.

He just flat out has regressed this season.  Still a great player, but he needs to be better...just like everyone out there not named Lee, Star, and Kuechly this season.

Great QB's see the field much quicker. That is an Aaron Rodgers or Tom Brady TD 10 times out of 10. Cam has to improve in this area.

    • I don't think the Jags are picking ahead of us anyways, at least not if Lawrence plays the rest of the year (or most of it). Here are the very winnable games left for the rest of the teams ahead of us in the draft right now... Jags (2 wins) - Titans x2, Raiders, Jets, Colts Giants (2 wins) - Cowboys, Saints, Colts Titans (2 wins) - Jags x2, Colts Browns (2 wins) - Saints, (Dolphins if they sit Tua as it's 2nd to last game) Raiders (2 wins) - Jags, Saints Patriots (3 wins) - Colts, Rams (it's home this week, 1pm game, Rams on short week) Saints (3 wins) - Browns, Giants, Raiders Jets (3 wins) - Colts, Jags, (also Dolphins last week if no Tua) The Patriots are the only team there that doesn't play another one of these teams, and the Browns and Jets are the only others that don't play at least 2 of them. We're not beating the Chiefs or Eagles.  We're not winning road games against the Cardinals or Falcons with them fighting for playoff positioning (assuming the Cardinals aren't locked into their place by week 17).  I also, personally don't think we're beating the Bucs in either game. Which just leaves the Cowboys, we lose that game and we're picking Top 3 or 4 at worst, still a legit shot at #1 because as of right now, the Jags are the only 2 loss team that we'd lose the SOS tiebreaker to. Even if we beat the Cowboys, with how many times all those teams play each other, or have other winnable games, I think we still end up 4-6 (although Dallas losing out without Dak would screw us as they'd be ahead of us and think T-Mac is a perfect pairing with Lamb who plays in the slot and they need more weapons). Yea, if we end up beating the Bucs or have another surprise upset too, it will end up dropping us further back to the 10-12 range Of these teams, the Titans, Browns, Patriots, and Raiders are the only ones I think would consider WR.  The Raiders would prefer a QB, the Browns and Titans also could go QB if they end up that high.  I'm hoping if the Patriots end up above us, they go OL to protect Maye, that could come down to if they're able to find a good LT in free agency before the draft. But the Patriots does feel like fate as both Gronkowski and Bruschi are two of the best Wildcats of all times who then ended up Patriots legends. I've made it clear that I'm not high on this QB class, the last time they said a class was like this one was 2023 and 2 of the Top 4 picks have already been benched and Stroud is struggling this year too. So I'm hoping we end up 3rd with QB's going 1-2 and Deion pushing us not to pick Hunter so we are almost forced to take T-Mac.  And if we lose out, there is a very real chance that's exactly where we end up when you look at the remaining schedules of all these teams.
