Cam's throws today

What I saw today did not look like a QB coming off shoulder surgery.  Not sure if he just needed a few weeks to get his groove on, or maybe he's just finally had enough time to really heal, but that was a damned clinic today.  Accuracy better than I've seen from Cam in a loooong time.  He still throws the dump-off balls harder than he needs when his guys are wide open for easy 5-10 yard completions, but he did seem to be slinging the ball really well.  The Oline did a good job giving him time to throw, so kudos to them.  His confidence was definitely back, and that's the fuel for his engine.

Let's enjoy this win - and may it be the springboard momentum we need to string some W's together!  Go Panthers!

Well, there were a lot of people who said it was going to take a few weeks for his shoulder to get back 100%. So, really we should've expected trash Cam earlier, and as the season progresses the better he gets. I didn't watch the game, but looking at his box score, he had a great game. I'd expect a few more great games from him as the shoulder continues to get better

On the int. If Byrd did not hesitate and kept running his route I don't think it would have been picked. I don't think he could have caught it in double coverage but would have had the chance himself to break up the int. Regardless, that was a bad ball thrown by Cam. Thank goodness that was the only one. Cam looked sharp today.

Funchess made a great play on a ball late in the 4th. basically acted as a DB and saved it from being picked. those two were the only shitters today.

Funchess actually saved the game for us. That break up and that pivot 4 yard pass thst he caught while he was injured

Cam was clearly more accurate and also seemed to have better zip on the ball than he's had so far this season. But the pass protection - or the lack of a Pats pass rush, whichever you want to credit more - definitely helped.

It's amazing the difference between Cam with and without solid pass protection. You give him time to throw and he's a legit MVP caliber QB, even with Shula's shortcomings as an O.C. and even with mediocre receivers, as we saw in 2015.

In that sense he's no Aaron Rodgers or Tom Brady as far as operating under pressure, but more of a Peyton Manning, who was money when given protection, but almost looked like a different player when consistently pressured.

I swear, if this organization can just find a steady tackle tandem we'd be set. Today aside, I just don't think Matt Kalil and Daryl Williams is it.
