Does Cam have to be Lebron in 2018

I love Cam, but comparing him to Lebron is so dumb.  They use A-Rod as another example, but very few teams (I know what the Eagles did) can lose their starting QB and still be successful.

This conversation they had on NFL network was a pure filler piece. There is absolutely no correlation.

Also, WTF is Reggie Bush talking about?!

Sure they put some new faces around Cam this season but they didn’t do a great job. 

In order for this team to go far Cam is once again going to have to carry the load much like LeBron does. 

You blowhards can sit on here and jerk each other off all day long talking about “weapons” but the truth is it’s the same sh!t once again.

Anyone in particular you suggest would have been a better addition? Of course we have to subtract at the same time. Ex. Allen Robinson = No Poe, Smith, Wright and Cockrell.

In 2015 and especially 2017, yes Cam carried the team and forced some wins we wouldn't have had. Cam leading the team in rushing last year?! Insane!

This year, he shouldn't have to carry the team in quite the same way. There's more depth and diversity of offensive weapons, PLUS Norv, who should help O be more efficient.

It isn't an apples to apples comparison. In the NBA players play both ways, so LeBron's impact on the game is always critical. Rarely are great players in the NFL able to saddle up and carry their teams the way that great NBA players can. If that was the case, guys like Dan Marino and Barry Sanders would have rings. So that is already a bad comparison.

However, does Cam have to carry the offense like LeBron for us to reach the playoffs? Well, in a lot of ways he did that last year. The hope is that with a new OC and some new personnel that it will keep him from having to carry the load as much.

This is a tough comparison when basketball players play both sides of the ball. So, you really need to be more specific with this comparison.

If they really mean, will he need to carry the offense like he has in the past? Then no, that was the purpose in bringing in all of these offensive weapons. 

He will not need to do everything on offense like LeBron does - leading the team in every major category? That's why CMC was drafted last year and CJ was brought in this year. You can't have sustained success if your starting QB is also your leading rusher in yards and goal line TDs. Otherwise every team would just run the triple option.

Now I interpreted the comparison as: will Cam need to be the best player on the field every game in order for the Panther to win? I think the answer here is yes. He will need to be able to make plays with both his arm and his legs. I don't think we have the kind of weapons that will allow Cam and Norv to simply out-strategize other teams. Cam will have to make splash plays in the passing game and kill defenses with his legs - particularly on off schedule plays.

      I Think Ashton Jeanty will be the Pick at #8

      It's been a tradition of mine in FF I ignore the name of the RB and draft them based on the oline. For years, Dallas was the elite line. Now it's Philly. It's been plug and play behind those lines. Investing those day 2 picks on the interior line allows you to take a day 3 RB and get day 2 results.

      So we have Tremble, JT Sanders, and the Thomas - Franks is the 4th but mainly just for Special teams.  Sanders is a TE - on paper, on the roster, physically, and on the field.  If you are trying to claim because he is a good receiver and not a great blocker he is not a TE then you have not watched very much football, like at all.  Cause that is how a ton of TE's come into the league.  Literally the #1, most common area for improvement for the TE group every single year - especially the top 5 TE's. And for the 1 millionth time, for the people in the back - drafting BPA is absolutely not a rule that anyone follows.  Not a single team.  They always factor in multiple things, BPA being one of them but not the most important almost ever.  It is an evaluation of need, personal evaluation, pick position/who drafts before your next pick, trade offers, free agents possible.  They don't follow it for good reason. Perfect example - Bo Nix.  He was not rated anywhere near #12 by just about anyone - including the broncos.  But they drafted him because they NEEDED a QB, liked him, and had no 2nd RD pick.  They outright said that.  Do you think they regret the pick?  They drafted 100% for need and pick position. Example #2 - Bijan.  Atlanta drafted BPA.  He is amazing, had a great 2 years so far.  They were 7-10 for 2 straight years prior.  And the 2 years after they have been 7-10 & 8-9.  Do you think they made the right decision?  By the way they also spent the #4 overall pick on Pitts, a Generational TE, and he/they suck.  I'd imagine Falcon fans would not agree with your BPA theory since they missed out on Chase, Waddle, Parsons, Horn, PSII, DeVonta Smith - all positions of need in 2021. BPA is A criteria, but not THE criteria.
