Newton Today

[KillerKat]

some will say this is the real cam that came out today. those people i have on ignore.

[Mr. Scot]

Wasn't an issue in college.

In college, he was facing Mississippi State and Louisiana Monroe.

Playing against the pros is a whole other thing.

[Catweisers]

Think over all was an admirable effort. Our o line not in the best health but he sure looked better in 1st half! There just no back up on offense or defense and folks get tired.

Was a Very good effort on both sides of ball

[Kevin Greene]

:lol: Good stuff.

So Cam went 19/39 for 276 with 2 TD and 2 INTs, 7 rushes for 36 yards.

The first pick the Falcons scored on the ensuing drive and the second one the D had them go 3 and out and they missed a field goal attempt and we got the ball right back where the pick happened.

I don't know, this team should have been good enough to win with that performance.

[PanthersGM305]

I just put back the game and ATL put the pressure on our OL right when Cam call for the ball what's i want to ask this ? Cam uses a snap call "180" I hear Aaron "319" hike... Their were reading it the falcons picked the line call ... Did this have a role in his hurries...?..

the problem is the 0 points in the 2nd half, I think just looking at his stat line is deceptive.

You guys can sit here and bitch about your rookie QB and his mistakes. Cam isn't the leader of this team but you seem to expect more out of him than you do those who are vets and pro-bowlers.

Are you guys watching the Broncos? That is a team who wants to win and believe in themselves and their QB. Tim cannot throw to save his life but his team does everything in their power to help him help the team WIN, while minimzinig his mistakes.

You guy sit there demanding everything out of your rookie QB, while bragging about the vets and pro-bowlers on your team. Why are they not stepping up and helping this kid? Why is his emotions controlling the the game every week? It's clear when he's "on," everyone is on and when he's off, the Panthers are off. And all one keeps reading week in and out is Cam Newton and every little fugging concern.

who are those vets and probowlers on our defense?

Gamble and CJ? 2 guys, yeah, you raise a very good point..

[Carl Spackler]

We should be able to win more than 0% of our games when our QB has 2 turnovers. It's not an uncommon thing for a team to still win games like that, especially when that QB throws for over 275 yards.

Cam was awesome in the first half, bad in the second. But still, a Mare FG and a defensive stop and we win 26-24 despite all the second half garbage throws.

[mav1234]

agree LFP.

I think Cam was a big part of this loss but he was far from the only one to blame.

[davos]

On Cam's part, he just needs to be smarter with the ball out of the pocket. As he would put it: "simple & plain"

That happens with rookie QBs...and of course there are some that tend to do that crap throughout their careers *Favre cough*

Hopefully Cam starts tucking that ball in and taking a tackle when necessary. He can still run, just needs to be more aware of consequences and learning how to slow down the game.

The rest of the team needs to keep their emotions in check and don't let mistakes get out of control
