Seems like the classic Heroic archetype. Death and rebirth. Hero comings back to restore order

 

And I thought I was the only Joseph Campbell fan around here

really like it as well. his past ones were borderline unwatchable for me. but this was great.

i think he was humbled when he realized he wasn’t getting a nice contract through FA like he thought and had to settle for a ridiculous vet min…then again when no one signed him after released. probably had to open his mind a bit to get vaccinated, nothing wrong with that. i had to do the same. respect

i say this because he seemed very grateful and excited the panthers gave him another shot…”people keeping saying they were glad I took the Panthers back, but i am glad they took me back”.

and may favorite from the whole segment…”fortunately, my taco Tuesday was interrupted”.

even though i think this was more of a PR move by Tepper, and it’s unfortunate he will be thrown behind the worst oline in franchise history, i have no doubt this is not at all what it’s about for cam and he is going to give it his all.

i am hoping he can get that line to play better holding them accountable. would be nice if someone on this team started barking at them.

The good thing is, he doesn’t  have to do it all now. He just has to be competent   In 2020 in NE, he had to do it all as well 

I love him dearly and yes I know we will have ‘good Cam’ ‘bad Cam’  but I’m glad to just have Cam 

I’ll tell you something else, I don’t want my last memory, or his, to be that Monday night game at home against the Rams when he clearly  couldn’t move and the boos rained down. on him…more on Rivera for sending him out there. 

if there is any justice in athletics, our guy will end this season winning a few games and giving a few more footballs away.  

It’s supposed to be about joy and competing   It hasn’t been that way in awhile  here’s to its coming back

im so happy. Hope is helluva drug

While Cam loves him some Cam(as he should), he’s always cared of others more. He’s always been accountable, and shouldered any criticism that came the teams way. His comments in that presser weren’t surprising. He’s always been a leader.

What I got from the presser, was that he really loves the panthers and the Carolina’s. He said it was home back then, and he meant it. I think both he and the panthers realized you don’t know what you got until it’s gone. I’m glad he’s home

I watched his press conference and then that video on his YouTube channel.  I was impressed with his press conference.  My 1st thought was that he looked like he has aged 10 years in the past 2.  Also, he sounds different.  He mentioned several times it was not about him. He sounds more at peace with things.  He talks about being spiritual...a lot of people do, but this sounds different than before. 

He sounds like he is still playful Cam, but something seems different.  How many players would return to the team who cut him like the Panthers did?  He seems so at peace with it.  This is weird in a good way.  I really hope his shoulder is good.  I want this move to be great.

Love the perspective. We need more positivity in the world.

Oh, he’s is officially all grown up in that presser.

It was the single most impressive press conference he's ever given. I agree with EVERYTHING you said, and I'm praying for the last part. 

I mean, I know what you mean, but you have to have at least a B.A. in the language of Cam to understand what the hell he's saying with 100 percent clarity. But, he sounds positive. 

Like I said on Twitter in so many words, let's hope that his game has evolved like his apparent growth and maturation as a man.

We got to see Can grow and mature in front of us but in my opinion he has always been one decent guy. He did tons for the city of Charlotte and the communities around when he was here before and served as a great role model as well. Kids loved him and he out smiles on their faces every damn time he saw one. I witnessed that a few times in person when there were no cameras around. He was one of those Panthers that I personally felt love for as a human being. I know he had some tough times in his personal life as we all do but he still put on a smile for the fans especially the kids and that meant the world to see. He was and still is also my 12 year olds favorite player. Hell, he has been since my kid was like 5 years old. 

I so want to see him finish this season successful but I worry about him behind this line. The sentimental person in me wants to see him get back his old form and lead this team a few more years then retire a Panther. He is on any Panthers Mount Rushmore for sure. He has to be. I don't honestly see how any Panthers fan couldn't love him just by his presence he brings and what excitement and joy he brought to the kids at the games alone. Screw the other QB's, I may sound crazy but I just want Cam back and healthy and throwing some good passes to some open receivers then see him make all the guys around him on the field hand out footballs and smile. He is a leader and led by example. I don't give a damn if he had a day when he threw 4 ints, he was still Super Cam to my boy and for that I love the dude like he was my own family.

They have their… ehhh, reasons…

This is how I know y’all didn’t watch Cam in NE. He’s the same as he was there.
