You must have not been around during draft time and pre draft in 2011. I remember it like it was yesterday, nearly EVERYONE and all the experts said that Cam was a HUGE risk and reach because he just ran a one read option at Auburn and it would take years for him to be NFL ready.

Mel Kiper and Mcshay were saying (no I’m not even joking) that we should draft Blaine Gabbert or Jake Locker over Cam because they were more pro ready day 1.

Stroud, Young and even Levis are way more NFL ready now then Cam was coming out of Auburn. 

That's the typical assessment of the black QB with running ability. "He's not NFL Ready". He comes from a "one read" option offense. And of course the sub-par white QBs on the title contender that has a plethora of weapons that literally anyone could chunk the ball up to get described as pro ready.

Mel Kiper is a nut job. Mcshay, I can't even put a face on. But what the media thinks and what is reality is two totally different things.

 

See Lamar Jackson. Robert Griffin. Mike Vick. Cam Newton. Randall Cunningham. Steve McNair. Daunte Culpepper. All had the exact same assessments.

Corral is almost too short at 6'2" to QB in the NFL in my book.

Please, if you draft a QB shortsightedly instead of a someone like Myles Murphy who could make your line terrifying and probably boost sacks for Burns, draft one over 6'2" please.

Corral is your quarterback though so...

I know you are trolling and this is your shtick, but Corral cannot practice until August.  You think a new coach is going to roll with that when we have a top 3 pick.  I get your over the top style but come on man this is getting retarded at this point

 I'm looking back at you the same way. They made moves to get a QB THEY really like. You may not have picked him but they made a pretty serious investment in the kid. You actually think they're NOT going to play him? Who's retarded?

Don’t get me wrong I loved the bloke but he never had back to back winning seasons and he never won us a SB. 

Ok, doesn't change a thing. There isn't a 6'6" 250lb bulldozer QB in this draft. Is Stroud or Levi the Heisman trophy winner, don't know. Are Stroud or Levis SEC championship winning QBs? We don't know. We do know Cam was all of those things before becoming a Panther and Cam is the most singular reason we won enough to get to the Superbowl.

How many QBs have had a 15-1 season? Not very many. Cam is better than you think. If you watched that Superbowl you'd know the fix was in so give the guy a break he's the best we've had and should be respected as such.

      Snow in the high country

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I went on a solo elk hunt in the Flat Tops. It was awesomely miserable. LOL It was a late season hunt, I think third season and it was forecasted to snap off cold with highs in the upper thirties and lows in the single digits. fug it, I'm going anyway. They were wrong. The highs were in the low 20s and the lows were in the negative teens. I shivered so hard the first night I thought my teeth were going to break. It was the only time I've ever been legit concerned that I might be in trouble. Crawled out of my sleeping bag and got a fire started and suffered through the night bundled up next to the fire. I slept the next two nights literally wearing every stitch of clothing I'd brought with Nalgenes full of near boiling water in the bottom of my sleeping bag. That was the only way to have non-frozen water in the morning anyway. There was about a foot of snow on the ground and the melt/freeze crust was almost enough to support your weight but you'd go crashing through just as you went or make your step. It was exhausting travel and every step sounded like a rifle shot. Hunting was basically impossible. I never saw an elk in those four days, only saw 5-6 deer. LOL It was brutal but I loved it. Absolutely beautiful country that is never been to before and haven't been back since. I needed that four day complete break from society fighting for my life against the elements. I'm weird like that.

      Big news that could dramatically affect our offensive production for the rest of the season.

      By Newtcase · Posted

      The lack of production is especially surprising given how much effort the team put into coaxing the best from him.  In just six short years he’s had the opportunity to work with 3 different GMs, 7 different head coaches and 10 different starting quarterbacks.  There’s literally no excuse to be made that one of those combos didn’t work.  It might be time to look withIAN.
