don't be shocked if there are people who never come around to liking cam much. don't assume it's based on something racial. I live in Mass., and I know many patriots fans who don't like Brady either for whatever reason. They acknowledge he's a great player but they think they could win with someone else... and also seemed in love with Cassel for god knows what reason.

Not shocked here. Nor do I expect it to change. There are plenty around here who hate Smitty, DeAngelo, Beason, Stewart, etc. It is a team. I don't undersand the hate of a player especially a newbie who hasn't really established much yet other than one amazing regular season loss. Question FO decisions, second guess the management and coaches, etc. In the end, if we get to the Superbowl with this kid at the helm, some folks are still gonna hate. I am happy to ride the Cam choo choo train.

So the rookie didn't win this one although he showed a tremendous amount of poise and surprising maturity on the field. My bad i had a shitty day. fug.

No Athlete is going to receive 100% love from everyone but the hate towards Cam is very telling...

Maybe it's not racial but it does make one wonder for the times we're live in. Way to many excuses as to why Cam has to prove himself in the NFL while QBs like Andrew Luck are given a free pass and told they belong and they are barely doing better than Cam.

A lot of people do think Andrew Luck will be great, but you can't make a direct comparison between him and Cam because their situations are so vastly different. Even if we had drafted Luck, I can guarantee you there would be people here picking apart everything he does... because that's what forums do. You may think these people are unfairly targeting Cam, but that's because he is our current quarterback. Those same people often did the same thing to Clausen and/or Moore last year (Not all of them, but many did).

I dunno, I've been reading a lot of media stories lately and following this forum and I really haven't noticed any sort of racial undertones to anything at all. The last time any of that came up was in the draft process with Moon vs Narwocki or w/e.

Thats a reflection of society at large. Luck is a privileged kid so to some he shouldnt have to prove or earn anything, it should just be given to him. Nobody ever gave Cam anything, he's had to earn everything he's won, including the respect of this fanbase.

Sorry, but that is a joke if Cam does not get that award. Really? He just broke a 1st game rookie passing RECORD held by Peyton Manning. Hello people? 422 yards passing for a ROOKIE QB in his FIRST game! Wake up!!! I thought for sure Cam would win this in a landslide.

      Tom Pelissero: Ejiro Evero name to watch when coaching cycle commences

      By SteveSmithTD89 · Posted

      Respectfully, I completely disagree. Last year we were:  32nd in Sacks. 32nd in Turnovers.  32nd in Rushing TDs allowed  29th in Scoring.  We were absolutely atrocious on defense last year and that was with a full stable of weapons in Derek Brown, Frankie Luvu and Brian Burns that played all 17 games.  Using yards per game as a metric to guage our success lacks the context that because our offense was so inept teams were not driving the length of the field, they were starting at their 40-50 yard line.  This year, our Defense ranks:  31st in Sacks. Tied for 19th in Turnovers  31st in Rushing TDs allowed 32nd in Scoring  His defense fails to get pressure, fails to turn the ball over and fails to stop the run. Three things you absolutely have to do to be successful in the NFL.  Denver meanwhile has not missed a beat without him.  If another team wants to hire him as a HC and the Panthers get two 3rds for it I'll wish him the best and pack his bags myself.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Ah, the ol Cam Newton hating.  I will give you credit, the week of pretending to be a Daniel Jones super fan is a very clever way to disguise your hatred of Cam.
