Cam Newton is The Real Deal

[Proudiddy]

I think there is a huge difference between admitting you were wrong and embracing how wrong you are, thus becoming a troll.

I may have just lumped you in with others the same way some of the haters have done with me since i have been here.

I certainly thought he was a project (but not the "sit on the bench for 3 fuging years" version, just the "needs a lot of work" version), and he looked like it early in the preseason etc - but he's clearly a quick study, and ups his play for real games, and he's certainly changed my mind. Honestly, I was expecting a breakout game midseason if he was going to have one - not his first game of the season :D

TRD is lurking BTW. He was logged into the chat and logged out after the game.

I don't know how you can be anything but excited for what Cam might bring to us in the future. I know it's just a game, and I know he hasn't won anything at all yet, but at least we had exciting offense even in the loss. I want wins as much as anyone, but at least I feel like we can actually score when we have the ball now.

This team is a project, even if Cam is waaaaaaay further along than I thought he was. This is only the first game of the year... We'll improve. Whether that will translate into many wins or not, I don't know... but I'm excited to watch and find out.

Couldn't agree more. Loss, but we might have something here.

The surprise to me is how competently our defense played. I really thought we were going to get trucked.

I didn't respond to Grit's comment, others did. I respond to nearly everything I disagree with, and I don't think we need to rag on Dalton to make Cam look better... Cam's performance speaks for itself IMO.

Only 1 person responded saying "Gradkowski won instead" and then you responded right after Grits supporting how Dalton played. I know your response wasn't meant to overshadow Cam, but all you did was make the discussion bigger because your arguement was actually in argeement with the troll (or at least on his side). And that didn't help matters.

The first week (not sure about second) there was someone logged in to chat pretending to be TRD that wasn't.

Again, i wasn't trolling. I was called out (post 6) and i made a response.

Dalton did play well, and I don't really care if me confirming this somehow reaffirms whatever point Grits was making. I saw a post saying that their backup won the game, and while he certainly was instrumental in the victory, Dalton has been playing well and I don't mind giving people credit when they deserve it...

My response wouldn't have mattered if other posters hadn't then brought up other stuff. If your point is that I shouldn't participate in discussions started by someone you deem a troll, then you should widen your net and throw it around some other posters here, too.

Congratulations on your QB's play. You've got a lot to look forward too. What a great game.

someone was logged in as therealdeal but never posted once in the chat. If it was someone pretending they never said a word.

No idea, it very well could have been him, just saying that in the past people have trolled with his name before... and based on the fact he and Grits are mentioned in virtually every thread here relating to Cam within the first 10 posts, I think it's safe to say there are some with a big enough obsession to go a little overboard with it.

I couldn't care less about whether Dalton had a good game or not. This is the PANTHERS board dammit.

Exactly.
