I mostly agree with you but what kills me is when he either decides to back into the tackle because he’s afraid of an impact from the front or he does his version of a spin move. I can’t tell which it’s supposed to be, but he backs into tackles losing precious yards every other time he’s tackled.  Has cost us what would be a first down a few times. But, with that said, he’s moved the ball with his legs better than I ever expected him to and that god tier TD scramble a couple games ago buys him some rope in regards to running the ball with me heh

I gotta cut the guy a little slack here. If I had basically internally amputated my own leg a few years ago I probably wouldn't be running with reckless abandon on an NFL field either.

From what I hear Hurney wanted to extend Cam.  Didn't hear any numbers mentioned but that seems to have been a consistent rumor around BOA.

This would fit Hurney's historical M.O. I definitely wanted Cam here this season, but I definitely didn't want him extended. We had him under contract for what was basically middle of the road starting QB money in 2020. Perfect opportunity for a prove it year, but extending a veteran battling injury issues over the past few seasons would've been a really dumb move

It fits Hurney to a T.  That's why I believe it.

I'm honestly not seeing that. He ran hard on Sunday, he just ran awkwardly and slowly because he's not a very good runner. I don't think anyone expected him to be much of a threat with his legs.

He did have a few indecisive hitches Sunday where it looked like he wanted to run after his read wasn't there.

But then the pocket collapsed. 

His best runs he had time to giddyup.

I feel fairly certain that if Jerry Richardson still owned the Panthers, Newton would have received a mega extension.

Can you see Cam coming to the sidelines in full pout-mode......and how Rhule deals with that? 3 towels on heads, frown, and ignoring surface pad. Teddy fits better for what Rhule wants here for sure.

I honestly doubt Rhule would care as long as Cam was coachable and a good teammate. Never heard anything about Cam not being coachable or being a bad teammate. Ever seen Aaron Rodgers or Tom Brady on the sideline when things go sour?

I always hated the rah rah "leadership" BS guys in my playing days. How about you just STFU and play? Oh, you just turned it over? How about you STFU and quit fuging up while you're at it?
