Cam-only segment on Monday Night Countdown


Recommended Posts

Summarized:

-Cam knows demeanor has been "questionable" but doesn't know how to handle losing

-Has a high standard for self, doesn't compromise anything. Expects everyone to hold him accountable.

-The flashes of what the Panthers can be are there. More effort needed by everyone included himself.

-Chris Carter: #1 thing that happened, NFL has a book on Cam Newton. It's his turn to adjust. The support system around him isn't strong enough. Take away smitty, no other real weapons. In the NFL you need players who make plays. That's why we're collapsing in the 2nd half of games. It's not only Cam Newton.

-Tom Jackson: If you watch the great QB's in the NFL they eat, breath, sleep the position. Don't know if Cam already does that. He might be, but if he's not living the position breaking down tape, leaving no stone unturned for preparation then he has to be. He has to do more in order to be successful.

-Keyshawn Johnson: This organization is an hourglass right now. No support around Cam hurts. Mike Shula is the QB coach, but his resume is no good. He's never tutored a QB successfully.

-Ditka: Cam has the potentiatal to be phenomenal. He's a great football player. In situations of adversity, you learn a lot about yourself. Now is when you learn what kind of leader he is in a down year.

-Berman: Gave props to Kuechly. It's not only Cam, we have *some* players. The cupboard isn't empty exactly.

Nothing we haven't already talked about here, but if you were driving home or eating dinner I wanted to make sure you all had the Cam segment and what was said. I would like to hear Dilfer and Steve Young talk about him since they were QB's.

I disagree on the lack of talent at wound cam except for Smitty. LaFell is a solid #2 (as good a #2 as many teams have)....Olaen is a very good pass catching TE...DLo and Stew are great backs (both rushing and pass catching out if the backfield).

I think the talent is there, our coaches and scheme just don't use them properly.

Dilfer has high marks for cam... glowing things to say about him. But, "I don't know if he has the 'know how to'" or knows what to work on to be one of the elites. It's the boring stuff that you do better than anyone else. Steve Young says it's the desire to get there too fast. Said his mind got filled up and overflowed, he's physically tied up because his mind is tied up. Common thing to happen in 2nd year. He said 'just go play'. Look for Cam's growth over the next couple of years.

    • 100% even if rest of team is really talented if they march young out to be qb and he plays like he has for 90% of his starts the panthers have already lost doesnt even matter how good the rest of the team is or isnt and also makes it hard to even tell how good they are.  They need true competition for young this offseason.  
    • It will be awesome to have an improved stadium to lose in I guess....   https://www.yahoo.com/news/panthers-file-rezoning-bank-america-111500840.html     The Carolina Panthers have taken another necessary step toward renovating their home of the present and future. Panthers Stadium, LLC, filed its rezoning site plan with the city of Charlotte on Monday, initiating an important — if mostly technical — step toward renovating Bank of America Stadium. The filings state that the rezoning relates “primarily to technical aspects associated with improvements to Bank of America Stadium,” and that the rezoning is required because “the current stadium zoning is out of date” for the team’s stadium renovation plans.   The planned stadium updates include new seats installed throughout the upper and lower bowls; stadium safety and security enhancements; a reimagined South Lawn Pavilion; upgraded restrooms; exterior enhancements (including LED video boards) and more. Planning for the stadium renovation project will continue through 2025, with construction starting in 2026 and the renovation’s conclusion in 2029, The Observer previously reported.
    • In my dream, we somehow luck into a top 2 pick and someone wants a QB bad and doesn’t want anyone else to jump them. Somehow we’ll probably screw up the picks anyway, but it would be nice to do even partially what Chicago did to us. We’d have to lose out, which is a decent possibility unless Tampa is resting. We need Atlanta to stay within a game because Atlanta beat Tampa twice. The rest of the draft slots are who knows because Jax plays the Raiders and then Tennessee and you never know who will rest starters. I think we are top 7 unless we somehow pull out 2 more wins. The 4 win teams have higher SOS and there is only one 5 win team with the same SOS. If we win 1 of 3, we still should stay in top 7. If we lose out and the Jax games work for us, we can easily be top 3.
