Cam won't hold us hostage like former #1 overall picks have done if they flop......the new rookie deal came at the perfect time.

Not financially but there will be no other person to play QB for the Panthers in the next 4 years barring injury than Cam Newton.

He will have literally every single opportunity to show anything that resembles legit NFL QB play and will be rewarded when he does.

Cam could be the worst QB in the NFL for the years leading up to his option year as long as he shows improvement in that year he will be rewarded furthering our hostageness.

People don't need to try and rationalize Rivera's & Hurney's decision to play Cam because it's not based on play, it's because he was drafted #1, plain and simple.

Sure it is.

With the QB roster we have.......it is based on play. Not that Cam needed it b/c even if Clausen was better he would gotten sat down for Cam this year.

Nothing wrong w/ them wanting to roll w/ Cam regardless....it makes sense. Our QB roster unfortunately is what it is.....being that you gotta pull for Cam. Personally, I wanted them to draft Cam....cut Clausen and Pike. Make a move for a legit vet and then bringing another player to groom with Cam if they didn't keep Moore......BUT none of that matters. We got what we got. Cam is the best we got looking at the season as a whole.

B/c the fundementally sound guy can't or won't make the throws required for the offense to move.

but he did make those throws in the preseason... so I'm not sure what you mean. We don't really know how he would play in the regular season yet.

you can go to a Colts game and find retards booing Manning after a pick....I don't recall BOA being filled w/ boos for Moore in week 2.

i think people were even chanting for clausen at the half, but I could be mistaken, lol

First practice Cam is being treated and prepped in the #1 role......

Steve Smith claims it is the best the team has looked all preseason. Good to hear.

I am glad you pointed this out, I had seen the quote and was about to post it before I saw you had. I'm excited to see the offense with a gameplan behind it on Thursday. I think having the QB issue sorted either way makes practice smoother, and obviously having Smitty out there is big... plus the beginnings of the gameplan etc... It's good stuff, glad to hear it is going well.

Furthering our hostageness?

You are reaching new lows on a daily basis.

Clausen would play in the regular season just like he did last year.....just like he did in Spartanburg and just like he is in the preseason. Safe. Look to checkdown to soon.....and have no pocket presense which will ultimately doom the entire team.

I hope Chud and Rivera put together a gameplan that gets the offense some momentem heading into the regular season and not make it about just Cam improving. Pull the RBs out, design some plays for Cam to use his legs to create some opportunity, etc.

thanks for that nugget of wisdom Captain Obvious.

Summary....those who did not want Cam still don't want him. Those that loved Cam still love him.

Kind of funny how you think this is some great deduction of logic that you had.

lol...

And thank you for the nugget of stupidity you just displayed Captian Idiot, my post was not really a revelation at all but a subtle sarcastic response to a previous poster who was trying to rationale ginuine haters such as TRD and I assume you could be included as well lol... Who are overly critical of Cam and his preseason performances so far.

and p.s. those who "love" Cam only do so because we feel he has the highest ceiling available for us to be succesful, but what I'm really still trying to figure out is the reasoning for those who are dead set in hating the guy, considering the lousy Quarterbacking we have had the previous seasons. So my question is, if they hate Cam how did they feel about those other guys?????
