Panthers Saints Game Thread

Competent clock management would have given new Orleans about 15 seconds. Instead they got almost a minute. Oh and they get the ball first to start the 2nd.

This ones over and hopefully so is Rivera in Carolina.

Yup, 10-0 will look like a very long time ago when the Saints are up 24-13

lolll. Delhomme got so many excuses for everything he did. Even had a good number of supporters during the 09 season still wanting him to be our QB.

After the 09 season he deserved shot, he led the team to the playoffs, he didn't deserve that new contract though. He was consistently criticized for being a bad quarterback.

I like Cam just as much or more than the next guy, but come on quit being homers.

As Martz explained....Playcall doesn't give the QB that option like a traditional screen. It is a turn and throw play call thanks to the fake to the opposite side.

issue is Chud runs it every game lately.....easy on a defender to routinely use quirky plays. They can then blow them up

Regardless, you have to see what you are throwing too or else you are just asking for a disaster.

Exactly. Just a bad decision and throw. It happens to all QB's and is not that big if a deal.

I am more concerned with his continued issues with accuracy. He is throwing high on passes and than skipping them to wide open receivers.

Needs to spend the offseason working with Weinke again. Still a work in process as a passer and should spend lots of time on the practice field...and I believe he will.

I am more concerned with your uncanny ability to place blame at the feet of Cam Newton when things aren't going so well...including creating threads and making posts...

Yet when we win...You never fail not to mention one Cam Newton.

Agreed that was a bad decision to throw the ball. Unfortunately, similar to timing route passes, that play forces you to trust your target. Why not just run a normal screen, or just run the ball.

lol. I don't deney that. However, he has forgotten more about Pro football than 99% ( or better ) than us on thie board.

Valid point.

Cam just has to not spin and throw. We use it too often and the Saints sat on it. Bad decision. But, he had had very few of those in the past 5-6 games.

Not a biggie...just learn from it.

    • Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of mature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.  Just so you know, I critique and perform research in my job.  I am often amazed at how the numbers do not support my suppositions.  I learned that my impression is often wrong until I look at the data.  In this case, I have considered all the important variables and he should get a shot.  Numbers don't lie--and when you and others resort to twisted name calling directed toward the poster--it verifies my position.  
    • I don’t get this, I know that is the popular thought process but I just don’t think it’s true.  For instance head to head last year the ACC had a winning record against the SEC.  The SEC had a losing record in bowl games. This year so far the head to head is 2-3 SEC and that’s with a fluke Vandy win in week one.  I see the ACC taking another head to head winning season after next week.  The SEC is mostly hype with 3 good teams, in my opinion.  But to say any ACC team would get exposed I believe is a stretch 
    • What the hell?  How is presenting Cam's stats hating him?  The point is not to hate Cam, it is to show you how similar Jones is to him and why you take a look at him.  I mentioned Jones has the skill set to take a look--the response is, "look at his 5 years of performance."  So I compare him to the greatest QB in franchise history, and the stats are similar--while Jones was in a worse situation.  Now that is "hating?"  Come on.  This is a meritless, ignorant, personal attack because you are wrong.  Just stop it.  You all attack the poster when you have nothing.  So saying "we should consider a guy with similar stats and size to Cam Newton" is now hating Cam and making me a Jones super fan- that is just stupid.
