The Panthers Cant take Newton

Recommended Posts

So we got Cam Newton supposedly going #1. We have a 2010 NFL rules set that quite possibly could be in place. We've got an owner who is heading up an aggressive movement to make sure that younger players get paid less (among other things). Aaaand we've got this dude here:

meet Bus Cook

He's famous for all sorts of things like:

per the wiki

Largest rookie contract in NFL history (Steve McNair, 1995)

Largest contract in NFL history. (Brett Favre, 1997)

First $100,000,000 contract in NFL History (Brett Favre, 2001)

Record setting contract paying out the most in the first three years in NFL history (McNair, 2001)

Largest non-QB contract in NFL history. (Randy Moss, 2001)

Innovative contract structure involving guaranteed money for record setting Rookie contract. (Calvin Johnson, 2007)

Here's a terrific story about how he gets down :svengo:

I just dont see it happening fellas. If it does I'll be excited and nervous, but I just dont see it.

    • There's some big assumptions in here - first, I think Canales HAS helped Bryce a poo ton. To pretend he hasn't is asinine. Has he fixed him?  I mean, the dude looks like he could perhaps be a backup or low-end starter now, whereas he looked like he didn't belong in the NFL a year ago. You're talking about a coach that brought one of the worst NFL QBs of all time to a point where he may actually be a low-end starter. That IS impressive. Second, the bolded. Come on - given the offense, the dude is far from "trending towards bust." He definitely needs work but he's shown an impressive ability to get open. He's contributing to an anemic offense. The dude is our leading receiver (though he'll be #2 in yardage by end of season by a little, as Thielen does better per game).  As to his coaching, he had this team competing and believing against 3 of the better teams in the NFL, despite the lack of talent, and despite our QB situation.  Yes, things fell apart vs DAL, and he was outcoached. But that will happen with young coaches IMO.  I don't think it indicates he cant' be better. The idea of "pulling off the bandage" is ridiculous. Who would want to coach here if we fired this guy after one season? 
    • Whatever they are in totality the cowboys are beat up all to hell on both sides of the ball and even that was too much for lil Bryce to overcome.  Bryce defenders have to hype up every other team and trash every other part of the panthers just because of the situation they’ve put themselves in. 
    • JB had a first round grade in the eyes of a lot scouts based on HIS TALENT LEVEL. If not for the injury he would have gone higher in the draft, possibly between the middle and the end of round 1. To get him just before the 50th pick is a steal. He'd be on a 4 year deal. You can't even renegotiate until the end of the season 3. You're basically paying him nothing for 3 seasons. I don't buy into all back are interchangeable. No they're not. You have average backs, good backs, then your great-exceptional backs. The latter category doesn't grow on trees. If a back is special it pays to keep them. The key is knowing the difference between the first two categories and the third one.
