Congrats to Cam for officially making the Pro Bowl!

[The NFL Shield At Midfield]

i enjoy the pro bowl.

particularly because it's been the only time i've gotten to watch panthers players after the first week of january over the last several years.

people are sobbing over Stafford not getting in..

[Brandon]

We have a Pro Bowl QB.

...

Sorry, had to see that in writing.

We've sent 4 QBs to the Pro Bowl... Not that uncommon for us. Getting them to continue playing at that level or not benching them for Jeff Lewis has been our problem.

:cam:

Stafford fans can suck it

[rayzor]

the only thing i think this is good for is if cam and smitty use their swag to help a couple indecisive quality potential free agents say that they would be willing to take a discount to be a part of what carolina is building.

When was (if ever) two rookie quarterbacks made the Pro Bowl in the same season?

go read some of the comments in this PFT thread if you need some laughs.

Some idiot wrote that we no longer have to worry about "blackouts" and "extensions" thanks to cam.

LOL!!!! When was the last time the Panthers had a blackout? over ten years ago?

A city like Charlotte will NEVER have to worry about blackouts based on how much corporate money is in the area.

Cam Newton's historic rookie season will get one final act, as the Carolina Panthers quarterback will replace Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford, who is not able to play in the annual all-star game due to a sprained labia. Stafford had replaced New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning on the NFC's Pro Bowl roster.

Newton was the second alternate among NFC quarterbacks after Manning, Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, and Matthew Stafford. The Giants overtime victory over the San Francisco 49ers in Sunday's NFC Championship Game made Manning unavailable for next Sunday's Pro Bowl and opened a spot for Stafford.

Newton, the first overall pick in the 2011 draft, threw for 4,051 yards -- the most by a rookie in NFL history -- and 21 touchdowns with 17 interceptions this season to post an 84.5 quarterback rating. He added 706 rushing yards to become the first player in league history to pass for 4,000 yards and rush for at least 500 yards in a single season. Newton also set an NFL for most rushing touchdowns by a quarterback in a single season with 14

Fixed for the Stafford fanboys

Cam throwing it up to Fitz will look so good.
