Cam Newton: "They gave up on me"

[CatTower]

Really sounds like Cam is in denial.  If he believes in himself, then prove it.  Carolina wanted to go in another direction, he needs to accept it and move on.  I will say it sounds like it's good we're cutting a lot of these players just based on how quickly they are rushing to speak negatively about the organization.

Maybe they didn't think he was worth 30+ million a year even if healthy.

Close. With Tepper being the investment minded individual that he is just sold all his stock In Cam and reinvested it in Ted, for now.  That's the bottom line.

Just curious. How would you compare Cam's 2018 season to other QBs? After all its all relative right?

well Cam's 2018 was better than any year of Bridgewater's entire career so there is that.

Teddy's best year, 2015: 3231, 14 TD, 9 INT, 88 rating

Cam's 2018 (played injured, considered a bad year):  3395, 24 TDs, 13 INT, 94 rating

Where did Cam speak negatively on the organization? I'll wait.

You can go look in the media, everybody speaking negatively on the Panthers organization after what happened. Who has this organization NOT screwed over? fug this organization

Throwing shade is speaking negatively.  This organization has the most dead cap by far and we are the ones screwing over players?  Get a grip.  This is a business and we just happen to be paying over 40 million dollars to people who won't even be on the team this year.

Its almost as if this team is managed terribly.

 Not that same management has hired a coaching staff.  WHEEEEEEEE!

This "organization" David Tepper practically had to beg Steve Smith to retire as a Panther instead of just a Raven cause he was screwed over.

Am I lying?

You taking up for the "organization" and "owners" when it's the players you watch. The players that bust their ass. Cam injured for a year and a half, cut him boo-hoo get real

How about TBs stats from last year? Are ANY of Cam's stats better than those? And granted it was a smaller sample size. And most elite QB that put up those kind of numbers would be considered a down year. You know that right?

Yep. The performance should only count when you have at least 3 all pro linemen, at least 1 pro bowl WR, a pro bowl RB a HOF coach and you are healthy.

Ask Joe Flacco if Super Bowl rings matter in free agency.....

True but Flacco was older, underperforming and the Ravens had Lamar Jackson waiting.

He was waived by the Broncos. Ravens at least got a fourth round pick for him.

Flacco was always a JAG other than that SB post season.

??? Teddy's stats from last year were garbage. Every year played in Cam's career was better than Teddy's 2019. hell Cam's 2019 was almost better than Teddy's 2019 and he only played 2 games vs Teddy's 9.
