Cam Looking For More

INDIANAPOLIS -- Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton may not have had the best Pro Bowl anybody can remember, but it's hard to remember anything else that didn't come up roses for the 2011 first-overall draft pick. With a Panthers team that may have had the worst aerial attack in modern NFL history before he arrived, Newton became the first NFL quarterback to throw for over 4,000 yards and rush for over 500 in the same season, and he also eclipsed Peyton Manning's rookie passing record with 4,051 yards through the air. The threat he presented as a running quarterback opened things up for Carolina's running backs, and veteran Steve Smith had a renaissance season catching passes from one of the more impressive young quarterbacks we've seen.

    • Also, while the discussion is fun, I'm going to ask the original question in the OP again as nobody has mentioned one way or the other if they know..... Are they selling these in the team store yet? The timing of when these will start to ship out is really the only thing keeping me from putting my order in yet.  If I'll get it in a month or less, I'm ordering it now, if it's going to be a while, I'm going to wait to see if they offer the blue and/or the better version of them.
    • I'm not sure Hunter is some super conditioned athlete that stands out among professionals.  I think he was afforded opportunity that just doesn't happen in football.  That's the most unique aspect.  He plays relatively light contact positions.  I mean, I might wager there are tons trash players on MLS rosters better conditioned than Hunter.  but I also saw Travis Hunter get absolutely cooked late in a couple games.   That's why I don't think he can play both ways in the NFL.   It was largely a sideshow IMO at Colorado.  If you are getting cooked late in games because you are tired at Colorado......you can't pull it off in the NFL outside of some situational package.   
    • Yeah but our recent history is probably less than a 20% "panning out" rate on Rounds 1-3. I am firmly in the prove it stage as far as that goes. Don't get me wrong, I like some of the guys we drafted a lot but I still need to see them develop and produce.
