He's not satisfied with his performance:

“I always give the same response about, ‘Cam, are you really surprised with your performance?’ Whether it’s a reporter, whether it’s whoever that’s asking me, I’ve asked this question to them: ‘Have you ever put a large body of work into something and expected it just to be OK?’ … So why would I be surprised with my performances right now. If anything, I feel like I’ve failed myself due to this game is about wins and losses. And I’m not hanging my hat on no 2-6 season and we still have an opportunity to change that.”

Love it...I expect us to go 4-4 to finish the season.

With comments like this, I can't understand why there's about 5% of our fans out there that don't support this guy. How can you possibly question the guy's will/atitude/work ethic at this point?

Someone has to say it.

It's because he's a black QB.

He so young, hope he will be getting better for awhile.

Other than the games we should be favored

@Detroit I think we could pull an upset..

@Tampa may as well be a favorite here, I think we have a better team

@Houston lets just hope its old school choke late in the season Houston, cus they to good for us right now

@NO We gonna get them this time!

I hope we flip it.. started 2-6, ended 6-2.

It's because they're really not fans.

yep

[Luke Cage]

Bauss smashed the nail right on the head. I expect us to finish 5-3 but hope for 6-2, 7-1, or 8-0 for the rest of the season.

The detroit upset is very possible...I think we play them before or after their game against GB. Its a perfect trap game. We can beat anyone on our schedule. I expect at least 4 wins but I hope you are right and we flip it.

[Montsta]

If we go 5-3 in the second half I'll be happy. Foxy got us to 7-9 in 2002 and we all know how 03 went.

who doesn't support him?

There are a few here on the Huddle who have to take their shots at him whenever they get the chance. This morning, there were callers on WFNZ(who were apparently too scared to come on the air) who apparently were calling Cam a "one hit wonder", saying that defenses will destroy him once they get more film on him, which is all garbage. You can go read any Panthers related article in the Observer and find commenters who STILL bring up the laptop incident in Florida as evidence that he will not succeed, etc. I just wonder how many Colts fans did this for Manning in his first year when he was clearly playing on a bad team.

The people here who do it, just do it to get under peoples skin. The wfnz nerds are likely fans of other teams.

If you are a Panther fan and don't support your new QB who's playing damn well....then you probably don't have the correct number of chromosomes.
