Shameless by fox

Commentators ragging on cam about leaving field after fumble with Murphy recovery td. There's plenty to criticize about cam n his demeanor but nothing wrong with jogging off the field. He was disappointed and its not like he can jump in the pile. They need to stop over analyzing him. Go panthers

His behavior was not horrible, but it was also not smart.

This team is fragile right now and needs strong leadership on and off the field. Cam is the guy that can rally this team together. But he needs to try and be the consummate team mate. He needs to be over the top rah rah right now. This team needs it.

The only time I have taken issue with Cam Newton was a game this year where the Panthers were down by like 30, he had played really poor that game, and he got a meaningless TD with I think about 2 or 3 minutes to go and proceded to do his Superman pose.

If he celebrates after a fumble, he's immature.

If he goes to the sideline, he's immature.

Basically, Cam is screwed in the media no matter what.

Their issue is that he either celebrates by himself or goes to the sudeline by himself. He needs to be the ultimate team mate right now. This team needs him and he could be HUGE in bringing this team together.

You saw how the announcers were giving him praise for talking with Smitty the last time they were coming off the field.

I hope he realizes how big a deal a small change in his demeanor is likely to be for this team right now.

i think we were down 20-0 in the beginning of the 2nd half and that td brought it to 20-7. you could tell by his body language that cam was doing it to get the crowd into the game.

Except it was the middle of the third and we were down by 14.

Don't let the facts get in the way though.

    • I mean it's not even like this was his worst game of the season... I'm not done with him by any means but this feels more the norm for him than the exception:/
    • I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...
    • Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.
