Re-Built in the image of Cam Newton

Recommended Posts

.. everything we have done has catered to Cam. Rhule. Brady. Snow. The inexperience. Cam is the most experienced guy in the building now. This team will be built for Cam Newton.

Why did Kuechly retire? Because this team is going to be trying to score 40 points a game. We don't need defense. Kuechly's side of the ball is being de-valued here.

It was a waste to have a team with a defensive philosophy that has Cam Newton as QB. When a team has Cam Newton that team should always be striving to be the best offense in the NFL.

Cam's back, baby!

Sad people ever thought there was a chance. This team is being built just for Cam. Jerry Jeudy in the first.

LOL at this forum .. just LOL at thinking a team would move on from a 30 year old MVP QB .. guys .. QB's play into their 40's LOL

Joe Brady and Cam Newton are going to be something else together.

I can't believe nearly everybody here thought we weren't going to give Cam a chance with Joe Brady lol .. we signed Brady (and Rhule) FOR Cam .. yet we're trading/cutting Cam? LOL

We're going to bring in a bunch of college coaches to run a college-like offense .. and we're going to cut Cam? LOL

We always said Cam would thrive in a college-like offense .. now we bring in a college-like offense and we're getting rid of Cam?

LOL connect the dots.

I feel fairly certain Luke retired due to fear of causing more brain damage. Loading up on elite LBs is insane in 2020. Never again. You build the team around the player people show up to see at BOA which is obviously Cam. O-line, weapons, it's what the fans want. It's what the NFL wants. It's what makes money. You should spend a lesser percentage of money and draft currency on defense.

I honestly think Luke retired because he's putting his brain on the line for a league that doesn't care about his side of the ball anymore.

And in terms of this team specifically .. the Panthers are de-valuing defense now. With the Snow hire and Brady and Rhule.

We want to win with offense now. It's about time.

Yeah right. This place is so anti-Cam it makes me sick.

People like you need to understand that someone being realistic about Cam playing elsewhere during his career isn’t a slight at him or “anti-Cam.”

No, because Cam playing elsewhere when he's 30 years old is asinine. It's completely unrealistic to suggest Cam not being here. Completely unrealistic.

Is it though?

Injury history, O-line status, defense as it stands, and last year of a contract suggest otherwise. Bias works too though. Stick with that.

Agreed. You need pass rushers and coverage guys in today's NFL with a couple of hog mollies in the middle to stuff the run. LBs seem to be going the way of the FB. The modern NFL LB has more in common with safeties of the 1980s than the LBs of the 1980s.

    • I'm arguing that should those supposed deficiencies, like height or pocket footwork, be as consequential as you and others have claimed, then there would be a clear, observable impact in the data. That's not unreasonable. For example, batted passes are often used as a size-related concern (see: Baker Mayfield), yet Bryce ranked among the lowest in deflections at the line. If his stature is such a limitation, why isn't it showing up there? Or are you suggesting that's why his passing yards fall short of your expectations? If the latter, I would hope that you're not discounting yards left on the field due to drops (of which he led the league in).  Also, asking for specific, measurable benchmarks isn't aggression... it's accountability. If that feels uncomfortable, it might be worth reflecting on how much of your anti-Bryce argument is grounded in subjective perception rather than objective metrics. So, again: do you have any specific KPIs beyond total passing yardage, height, and weight that you consider relevant to evaluating whether a QB is top-10? If you want to add YPA and passing yards per game to those metrics, that's fair, just be clear about it. But let's not pretend that asking for clarity is some kind of provocation. I'm simply trying to understand the actual criteria... not just the vibes.
    • Jackson actually played quite well for a #2 CB #54 in PFF coverage ratings 12 pass break ups solid in run defense..... Hes gonna be targeted just because Jacyee IS being avoided.
    • Yeah, these arguments are getting twisted to the point that it's just an airing of old grievances for the 100th time. No matter what happened in the past, no matter what the "trajectory" is, Bryce has to show why he was a number 1 overall draft pick.  If people didn't like Cam and what he did for us at QB, I hate to see what poor Bryce is gonna get if he doesn't reach Manning-esque heights.
