Kyle Allen. Despite being written off already, I still see potential there.

Deep passes require more time---I wonder if it is possible the OL might be determining the quality of the QB play? 

And let's not let facts get in the way:

Ranked 29th:

Cam Newton CAR 14 7 29

24.1%  (18-19)

So it seems a majority of us has already written off Allen as just yet another footnote QB for the Panthers like Matt Moore or Jimmy Clausen, I’m not so sure I’m ready to throw in the towel myself though. Yes, he has looked inconsistent and has had some piss poor games. But there is one key thing I still think Allen has in spades.. Intangibles. Stuff you won’t see on film or can see in stat lines. He just seems to pass the eye test, he is calm under pressure, the work ethic seems to be there, he doesn’t seem to let bad plays weigh him down, he sees the field well most of the time and despite a few fixable things here or there he seems to learn from his mistakes and learn.

Besides all this I go back and look at his game against a good Houston team in a hostile environment and his game against the Saints this year in the dome, even the AZ game where he didn’t crack despite his first start this year in front of loved ones and friends. The bottom line is this, most of us have written off Allen as just another forgotten QB but I am very intrigued to see what he can do with a whole off season with a new offensive minded head coach and one year wiser with all the experience he has gained this year. Keep in mind as well he is just 23 years old, only two years removed from being able to drink legally for god Saale. 

Hating on Allen doesn’t bring back healthy Cam. Thanks for being somewhat objective.

Way too early to write off a second year QB. He's actually had some success in the NFL, so he could fix his biggest flaws and be a good starter. Heck, every QB has shortcomings and issues. The elite ones just have positives that outweigh the negs. 

We wrote off Clausen after one year

 

 

Allen is a backup

Remember that time when some posters, even some in this very thread, starter threads about how KA was the future and we should trade Cam immediately? 
 

this fanbase dumb as hell

every team has idiots that want the backup to be the future.  it rarely works out that way.

this fanbase is no different on that front.

treatment of Cam aside, the treatment of Allen is quite similar to most backups that win a game or two early.
