I'm taking down names. (A Cam Newton Thread)

Does continued and repetitive use of this strawman make y'all feel better?

I would LOVE for those of you who prop your opinions up with this damned strawman to come up with ONE example of someone who opines that Cam never does anything wrong or doesn't need to work on his game.

Just one.

PLEASE prove to me that that strawman exists so I can point and laugh at him.

(I'm betting you can't.)

Yeah surely someone can shed some light on these alleged super villains that say Cam can do no wrong.

The only thing that irritates me is I should be having these arguments with Falcon, Saints, and Bucs fans.

Not Panthers fans.

Defending Cam against unfair criticism == "he can do no wrong"

So, let me get this straight, you claim that I made a straw man argument by saying the fact that Cam is beyond criticism is laughable, yet you want me to find someone who says he's never done anything wrong? Are you high, or just love the taste of irony?

 

Not once did I ever say that anyone here thinks Cam does no wrong. I think that when people criticize Cam here, there is an unfair backlash against those people. Not once did I say he never did anything wrong or anyone else said he did anything wrong.

 

So please, refrain from quoting my posts if you're just going to take them out of context for your argument.

Watching Newton today was like watching the good version of Brett Favre.

 

Have said numerous times: He's never gonna be a Drew Brees, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning type.  He'll always be a Favre-esque gunslinger type.  That's just who he is.

 

Surround him with the right cast and he'll be fine.  Brett Favre won a Super Bowl playing like that.

ATTENTION HUDDLERS!!!!

The jimmies... They have been rustled.

Cam Newton has decent game manager numbers this year...nothing more. His completion percentage is still very poor...despite only throwing 3 passes beyond 10 yards in week 1.

 

 

7 TDs and 2 ints in 3 games is "decent game manager numbers"???!?!?!?!!?

 

lololololololol

 

You do realize over a full season that would be 37 TDs and 11 ints, right?

 

Game manager... lol.

[tiger7_88]

Problem is and always been is some people on this board think the QB can do no wrong.  

 

 

And there it is again.

 

That strawman's arms are gonna get might tired after his workout this time.

[Mr. Scot]

Cam Newton has decent game manager numbers this year...nothing more. His completion percentage is still very poor...despite only throwing 3 passes beyond 10 yards in week 1.

 

His top yardage number this year is 229.

 

Cam Newton is not keeping the Panthers in every game.

 

The Carolina defense is keeping the Panthers in every game.

 

One of the best things about Newton as a QB is that he does not turn the ball over much. It is one of his best attributes.

 

Gunslinger QBs are not game managers, nor should they be.

Gunslinger QBs are not game managers, nor should they be.

Brett Favre approves this message.

[TheRed]

The problem is most of the people offering this "criticism" toward Cam automatically assume anyone who dare attempts to counter their argument is either a drooling homer, or simply out to silence their "opinion".

[Mr. Scot]

Brett Favre approves this message.

 

When Jake Delhomme was in charge, numerous people wanted the team to ditch the gunslinger and go get a franchise QB in the mold of a Brady/Brees/Manning/Rodgers.

 

Well, they went out and got a franchise QB...who's a gunslinger :blink:

 

I will admit it amuses me :lol:
