We had an MVP level franchise QB for nearly 10 years and yet we:

1.Failed to give him an OL

2.Failed to give him proper offensive weapons

3.Ran him to the ground.

Karma is a bitch. Best to sit tight and till it clears.....

4. Character assassinated him on his way out.

What can you expect people would rather see us crash and burn with guys like Bridgewater and Darnold than ever see a guy like Cam take another snap with us regardless of how effective or not effective he would be. Dude got more hate here carrying Rivera to postseasons and the super bowl because of towels and outfits than these two “QBs” game playing who mind you have literally done nothing for this franchise to deserve appreciation by being terrible here.

We need to find coaches and management who can actually evaluate QBs and offensive line talent cause these guys are whiffing hard.

Yeah meanwhile we are free falling and what’s the pats record again ? 

trying to prove your point you made my point in the same breath, should have kept him for his last year and draft a replacement like most of the logical ppl on this forum stated 

Cam was not good in 2020. He was not good enough to beat out Mac Jones in 2021.

He was a worse option than Teddy B last year. It sucks how fast he fell, I enjoyed watching him and having him on the team, but I am a Panthers fan. Not a Cam Newton fanboy. 

There was not a QB option that they liked after Lawrence and maybe Wilson. They did the legwork. They weren't interested. That would not have changed whether the QB was Cam or not in 2020. The team still would have been QB hunting in the FA or trade market.

Its almost like whoever owns the team is more worried about big names to fill seats rather than a winning product

At this point I honestly owe Cam an apology. Bridgewater too to a lesser extent. The ridiculousness of this regime knows no bounds. I made peace with the fact that maybe Cam was done but better days were coming. I know now that we made a mistake letting Cam go. If you can't admit that, then I don't know what to tell you because this cannot be what we let the best QB in franchise history go for.

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
