Norv Turner on Cam Newton: "He hides a lot of deficiencies."

[Saca312]

If you want to know what I now think of Norv Turner, I think he's churning into something special.

Why? Well, it helps that he knows how to self-evaluate properly. And given his recent comments on Cam, he's done something very few of our coaches have been willing to say about Cam.

Halle-freaking-lujah. An OC who understands and respects Cam's game. I imagine him watching tape and just shaking his head in disgust at how Cam literally is the only reason some of our coaching staff still has a job.

About time. He’s just saying what anyone with a brain has been saying for the past 7 seasons.

This gives me hope we will make moves to shore up our OL next offseason. We can win a lot of games with an average secondary. We can’t win as many games with a terrible offensive line

Not trying to be snarky, but if Cam can cover up all the deficiencies on the Panther offense at the moment, I'll be impressed.

Ahhhh ...Wham Bam Thank You Cam...

Not what I meant at all. If you don't know I think Cam is a good QB by now, then you haven't read any of my previous posts here.

The Oline is down 4 starters from last year, Olsen, Samuel and Byrd are out. That's a lot for any QB to overcome.

We were calling those deficiencies "Mike Shula" but to each their own. 

[Byrdman4real]

Cam was hidding Shula's deficiencies, just as he hides Rivera's

Guys, the 1st pick in the draft should hide a lot of deficiencies.  Thats the expectation.

Well said! I personally think next yr, where  going to be really deep at every position.  A lot of young talent going to get plenty of playing time this yr. which will only help for next yr. No, I’m not giving up on this yr either lol

Yes this line is still light years better than the bell, chandler, amini line Rivera trotted out there.

Turners favorite WR is free with the Browns releasing Gordon but he probably did something besides being late for yesterday's meeting. 

[Moo Daeng]

It sounds like he plans to depend on Newton like Shula did. Like OC do when they have a special QB

Is it though? I’m worried it’s going down the same path...more of the season will tell. Just looking at the panther oline depth chart on panthers.com scares me. Feels like 2015 was the peak Oline and we’ve slowly been sliding back to Chandler/Bell status. Still have Amini which is dumbfounding.
