Thinking out loud

Plus it would be hilarious to retire in a couple of weeks, & see how many of the people insisting the organization needs to let him go right now & that it's just business, suddenly howl about how he's disloyal.

I wouldn't be one of them. If your body is done, it's done. I don't want Cam playing hurt, risking further injury, just because of some misguided sense of loyalty. It wouldn't be good for him, or the Panthers. If Cam is hurt, and I'm not sure he didn't reinjure or further that foot last night, then he needs to be benched until he is healed. If at that point he says, my body is done, I can't do the rehab and constant pain anymore, I'm good with it. Thanks for the many years you've given to this organization, time to move on.

Your not the only one

Kyle Bailey on WFNZ just said he saw the same look in Cam's eyes and face last night during the game and after that Luck had at his press conference 

Definitely concerned about Cam's mental state. He really hasn't looked like he was having fun on the field in a while and he has admitted to battling depression last year. I hope that doesn't come up again.

Actual football question...

I don’t really watch other NFL games than the Panthers.  So, for those of you who do...

Does Cam hold the ball longer than most QB’s?  I know our OL isn’t great, but would guys like Brees, Brady, or hell, even Dalton, Goff, Stafford get killed if they were our QB?

I’m wondering if it is even at LEAST in part because Cam takes longer to go through his reads, and his set up to throw, etc.

I used to only watch the panthers too. Spending time watching other teams that are good was eye opening. It changed my opinion of Cam and they way this entire team plays. This team looks lazy, slow, soft, and directionless compared to NE, chiefs, saints, etc.

Yes, in short (through his entire career) Cam waits until his guy is open before he starts his throw. The good QBs will very often throw before their target is fully open. This is a well documented limitation with Cam. This causes Cam (historically) to hold the ball longer.

Last night it looked like he has laboring a bit to get this long throws out too.

It will be the end of a era if Cam gets released or retires. He has been our greatest QB yet. Just like it was sad to watch Jake in 2009, it is just as sad to watch Cam since November.  Hardly anything to celebrate.

That stadium last night, had sadness that was measurable.   It was desperately trying to will Newton into a performance he could no longer give 

i think it was Golic today who sad ‘Newton has the look of a QB1 who is in pain and tired of all of it and what that brings’.   

He then went on to totally slam the Panthers for ‘patchwork’ offensive line  surrounding him

Yeah we all kept pulling for Cam to just finish one drive. Nobody wants Cam to struggle. We all pay our money to see the team win and pull for everybody and anybody wearing blue. We all watched in dismay as the Williams experience on the left side came unglued. Then to get stopped on the 1 yard line with 1:20 left and only one time out was totally deflating. I haven't seen this many somber exhausted faces as we all trudged out since Cam got here.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
