Cold Hard Truths About This Team and the State of The Panthers...

The cold hard truth is that Cam is not mature enough to be a successful QB in the NFL, at least not the way he looks now. It's time to bring in Anderson and hope that Cam grows up in a few years.

I still can't get that stupid superman thing at 26-6 or the eyes closed during the press conference thing out of my head. My brother, who went to an SEC school, called it correctly when they drafted him--- an immature egomaniac who talks about himself in the third person and is great as long as things are going well.

This is exactly right. Listening to the radio this morning they were praising Jerry Reese the Giants GM for building a team that had such great depth in that their REPLACEMENT PLAYERS destroyed our starters. That's the difference in a good front office and a bad one.

Just imagine if our top receiver (Smith), third receiver (Louis Murphy) starting right tackle (Byron Bell), starting running back (Stewart) all went down with injuries and were out of the next game on the road in primetime. You think we'd be beating anyone 36-7? Hell no. poo, we were missing Stewart and Bell last night and our line and run game was atrocious.

Thanks to Hurney and his "management" of the roster we don't even have quality starters much less backups who would even start for most good college teams. Would Armanti have been a 4 year starter at a Division 1 school?

Funny that JR wants to emulate the Steelers but runs his team nothing like that.

There is a reason the top handful of teams stay the top handful of teams. Why do Pittsburgh, New England, and the NY Giants stay good year after year? Those teams always find gems in the draft, don't give mediocre players huge contracts, and cut players when they decline or get injured. Some teams stay very good for a long time due to a great QB...Colts, NO, and SD but once that QB is gone they'll decline. Those teams must capitalize while that QB is in their prime.

For all the bone headed moves this organization has made, benching Cam for Anderson would be the biggest. Cam is the least of this teams problems. He has no offensive line, the defense can't stop anyone forcing the offense to throw to much, outside of Smith, who is a shadow of the player he once was, the receiving corp never gets open, special teams suck and never get us the ball in prime scoring position, and the coaching staff calls bazaar plays.

You're blaming Chudzinksi over McDermott for this? The offense was down before they even stepped on the field. The defense couldn't stop anything...yes the O couldn't keep up but damn...when the D is just an open sieve it really puts a damper on the original offensive game plan. I'm not defending him but you've gotta take that into account.

I think you are right. There are many other problems, but having a grown-up quarterback on the field when things aren't going your way can make a big difference. I'll bet the other Panthers just cringed when Cam did his Super Man thing-- I know I did. You hand the ball to the ref and your tell your guys -- "that's number one, lets get out there and do it again".

Every time I've seen Anderson on the field he's seemed in control and he has looked like a pro. I don't think it will come to a point where they would bring him in, but it does cross my mind when I see things like last night's performance.

I didn't like the Superman thing either when the game was pretty much over. I would have rather Cam walk just walk over and hand the ball to a kid with no celebration. Same can be said for Smith acting like a raging Hulk after catching the ball every time. Its one thing to get your team and fans fired up, another when your getting embarrassed

Funny thing is, Jerry Reese made some questionable moves, but he put his neck on the line for moves that had huge risk/reward implications and it made all of the difference - namely FA signings. Meanwhile, Hurney spends the offseason sitting on his hands just to keep them warm.

He lacks the intestinal fortitude to make moves to put us in a perpetual state of success. He's strictly inclined to keep his job and be consistent at being inconsistent. That is all.
