I know I know PRESEASON.... But should we be concerned about Cam's accuracy?

[BBQ&Beer]

No.

Looking at tonight, two things... 1) he was 10 of 19, I can think of 3 that were catchable yet the receiver dropped it. (I'm not counting 2 because either the receiver ran the wrong route, or he threw to the wrong spot so it could've been his fault.) 2) Turns out Brady isn't the most accurate mofo either when D linemen are all over him

[FootballMaestro]

It's an actual headline on Sportscenter

 

Amazing!

 

Flacco throws like 4 picks, and they mention Cam, who had none, and a positive completion %, to go along with the win. 

 

Almost, like some on the Huddle here. Lol

[DaCityKats]

Id bet money that Ron Rivera and Shula both have a sleepless night over this outing.

 

yeah because the OL couldnt block anybody.

The routes, weren't ran correctly on those other passes.

ProFootballFocus.com had a great story yesterday, with the stats on deep pass attempts (I would have posted it yesterday but my connection kept going in and out), a Cam Newton leads the NFL in deep pass attempts (passes over 20 yards deep, in the air) with 43 (18% of Cam's total pass attempts). Giants QB Eli Manning with 38 is the only QB within 12 of Cam's total

Cam Newton completed 43.9% of his passes more than 20 yards downfield last season, 2nd best in the NFC. More on CAR next on @SportsCenter

Yeah, we'll I guess that's what I get for not turning the channel after the game. My IQ just dropped like 11 points just from watching.

Get used to this panthers55

To a poor OLine or that every team has as good a blitz scheme as Balltimore?  I said early today that the ravens would use the whole defensive playbook and it would be tough.  What I didn't know was we were going to blitz as well.

[Everfrost]

wasn't he like 10/19 with 4 easy ass drops 14/19 73%

[BBQ&Beer]

I agree, but 13 of 19 is 68%. The point is even giving them those two his accuracy wasn't the problem tonight.

[CardiacCats]

i knew i shouldn't have made this thread lol, apologies to my overreactions

[Pimpdaddy]

Gruden said it... our lack of a legit 2nd and 3rd WR will haunt us....The Oline looks pretty bad... but we already had that concern.

[Jmac]

Cam will never be a real precision passer, he needs a complete balanced offense (running game,oline.and receivers) to maximize his game.If he had those things, he would be tearing it up. He is a great athlete that can be a very good quarterback with the right pieces around him.It is obvious that it won't work if he is expected too stand in there and thread the needle with his passing game.I don't understand how DG made the"has to win"statement knoWing that there are some major problems on the offensive side.

[carolina-chuck]

Cam's accuracy = Yes

O-Line = Yes

[CPcavedweller]

No. Looking at cams history in the preseason I'm actually pleased . Our defense never played this well and Cam always plays this way. No turnovers for the O again, if we do that we win. Cam can throw for 2500 yards and ten TDs as long as he only has 5 ints, I don't care.
