The Cam Conundrum

Antics shouldn't bother you, people are who they are. He's from a younger generation that's loud, flashy and in your face. People gotta understand the qb Era of the past is kinda over. 

But no, if you gave a statue of a qb these same weapons we'd be a HORRIBLE team. The only thing the offense really has going for it is Cams ability to run and break a big play. 

Why shouldn’t antics bother me? Cam is dancing all over the place when he’s winning and acts like a 5 year old when he loses

Well it just so happens that your personal opinion on this matter is wrong and stupid.

I’ll never understand why this place criticizes every other aspect and player with the Panthers but Cam gets a free pass and he’s off limits. Without our defense, this team would probably be 7-9 this season. 

Cam will ball out this weekend and I think the Panthers will win bc he was god awful last week and will actually work hard this week and have a chip on his shoulder. When he does, he’s unstoppable.

Cam hasn't  showed the losing posture in about 3 yrs exept for the Superbowl. And what's wrong with showing disfashion in losing and joy in winning. People used to say Cam sulking sidelines..i see Cam talking to his lineman and receivers and high fiving defense players, I see him throwing ball on the sidelines. Your grouping things of old into what is now not happening. Say what you say the offensive weapns we have have never been good especially since Smith. All the other Qb you have mention the Brees rodgers brady wilson even dalton has a decent wrs.

Nearly a decade in, and people are still crowing about his "work ethic".

These bigots aren't even hiding it.

It’s an interesting and fair debate. I often wonder if the Panthers would be better off with a traditional QB that was an accurate passer that didn’t turn the ball over. With our defense, the offense doesn’t have to do much.  

Cam draws unfair criticism and a lot of it is due to incredibly high expectations. Cam could be the Lebron of the NFL but doesn’t appear to work that hard at it and relies on his god given physical attributes. If Cam had Manning’s work ethic he would be one of the best to ever play the game. 

I find myself more and more frustrated with his lack of accuracy and antics on and off the field. The fact that Cam still has poor footwork and mechanics that haven’t improved speaks volumes to his off season work ethic in my opinion  

 

So Much Code

As for criticism of Cam I agree he has to play better but it is not because of his mechanics. He was won games with his footwork. He is unique. Cam does not play poorly every game just a few. This is a team sport and someone else has on defense and offense has to step up outside of Cam and LUKE. You can not Win consistently in the playoffs if someone else does not step up.

I bet when you lose you grab your blanky and hide in the corner don't you. To bad you your a bandwagon fan here that is what gives you away with all your whiny posts. Cam is a QB that many teams wish they had and don't. Cam is my teams QB so stop your throwing him under the bus already.

Troll alert. 

Umm, everyone that has ever spent time coaching or working around Cam has always praised his work ethic and dedication to improvement. 

We’ve seen him go to quarterback camps, call his receivers in for private workouts etc. 

i feel earlier in the year and then late Cams shoulder injury, as it also said on this weeks injury report is still a factor.

when he has a handle on it, he has 4 touchdown 60% games with the worst receiving corps and worst left tackle in the league.

when he doesn’t, he doesn’t. I believe a lot of his inconsistency in being accurate as hell one game then not is more to do with his shoulder having issues for a lot longer than the injury and recovery than anything to do with mechanics.

 

 

I agree with 95% of what you said. Except for the shoulder he’s inaccurate his entire career it’s nor his  shoulder.   And it’s definitely not his work ethic it’s jusy who he is yes he has terrible games and we usually lose those games.  Cam will show out tomorrow after that performance against Atlanta if I was NO I would be very afraid

LOL. This poo again? Cam is the reason this team is 11-5 and not 3-13. A traditional qb would die in this system. 

 

Also, in regards to "antics" what exactly has Cam done that another player in the league hasn't done or worst?  Comparing his "antics" to Wentz is laughable as well. Ones from Atlanta while the other is from North Dakota.

The real question is how many QB’s this season would have won 11 games with this roster????

 

Rodgers, Wilson and maybe Wentz, I don’t even trust Brady without Belichick in this team.

 

Cam is a flawed QB but he’s asked to do more than almost every QB in the league. Why doesn’t this team just sorround Cam with a ton of talent this offseason, give him no benefit of an excuse.

What would be nice is do what Pats did for Brady. Build a team specifically for Cam with handpicked players to fit the scheme.

Because we don't have the coaches or front office that believes he needs help. It is the whipping of the whip or they actually believe Superman exist and it exist in Cameron Jerrell Newton.

That’s a great point and I’d add Brady, Brees and Watson to your list. Look back at this season and our D won at least 4 games despite our offense.
