Coach, put it in my hands

“He’ll come up and say, ‘Coach, put it in my hands, Coach. Trust me,’” Rivera said, via Bill Voth of the team’s official website. “It goes back to a little something I learned from Michael Jordan when we were in Chicago. Michael used to say, ‘Certain guys want the ball when it’s crunch-time. Other guys just don’t seem to come off the picks the way they’re supposed to.’ I’ve told that to Cam, and Cam has always wanted the ball.” - https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2018/10/22/ron-rivera-sees-michael-jordan-traits-in-cam-newton/

Why is Newton having to beg the coaches to trust him? These statements seem to support the idea the coaching staff isn't putting enough trust in Newton early on in games, and only turning it over to him when all else has failed.  I don't understand this, especially with the 4th quarter results against WAS and PHI.

Simple, Because Ron coaches scared unless his seat is melting hot.

Way to take praise from Rivera about Cam and turn it into a negative against Rivera to fit a narrative.

So now the narrative is, Ron doesn't trust Cam. 

What poo are y'all going to make up next?

If we can somehow win 10-6 then Ron gets all of the credit. If we win 35-31 then everybody knows who is the hero. 

Why does one person have to get all the credit? why can't multiple people get credit? considering its a team sport and all?

Are we really insinuating that Ron Rivera trusts Heinecke over Newton?

Ugh. Huddle staaaahp.

Same thought.  Throughout the game you can always find someone(offense or defense) who made an impactful play to change the momentum or attitude.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
