Always easy to put blame on anyone like Cam. It all goes back to the coach. I put the blame on him and poor game management. Especially opting not to kick a field goal at the end of the half for a hail mary. Give Medlock a chance. He has a better chance connecting on a fg than a hail mary. He misses, so be it, at least you gave him a chance.

Yep, I've been a member of this forum since 2008 and I'm a Camwagoner....you got it bud! How about you ask KT what he thinks my opinion of Cam is???

Whoop dee doo! I've been a member since 2005.


I clearly wasn't referring to just you.

The point is a lot of the people you're referring to as Camwagoners have been here a lot longer then Cam, and just know more about football to realize that the pick 6 was in no way Cam's fault. I've been really critical of Cam when he makes a dumb mistake, but I'm also not going to blame him when his receivers falls on a timing route....

Unbelievable... simply unbelievable. This is the worst snake-bitten team I've ever seen in my life. Nothing goes our way, ever.

I agree 100%. Unfortunately these close losses are only going to make this franchise's losing culture worse. It's going to get worse (maybe a lot worse) before it gets better. But the next step in that direction will be firing Rivera at the end of the season. I remember someone on the Huddle saying the Steelers hired Tomlin over Rivera because Tomlin had the killer instinct that Rivera lacked. We're seeing that lack of a killer instinct in our 4th quarter collapses.

I don't blame anyone for this one. Rivera's group had the team ready to play, imo, against the best team in the NFL right now. I thought we'd get blown out of Chi-town by halftime.

Unfortunately, Rivera isn't getting it done. So... he really should be released. It's not personal. Doesn't mean he's a horrible coach. Just means he's not what this team needs right now. And yes it's okay to move on in the middle of the season. Dallas did it a few years ago and it worked out for them - for a couple of weeks anyway.

BTW can Joe Adams come back already?

Why

[MadHatter]

Anyone who thinks thus loss was the defenses fault in ANY way is a complete blubbering fool.

They:

1. Held Chicago to 210 total yds
2. Allowed 79 yards rushing
3. Sacked Cutler 6 times
4. Forced 2 fumbles and an interception
5. Allowed 1 TD and 3 FG's...while the ST coach kept giving Chicago the ball on the 40.

Plain and siimple fact us that the offense did not get done again.

We are struggling to score TD's all season and again today.

1. Only TD was a Cam fumble that we were lucky to recover.

2. We're repeatedly in the red zone and had to settle for FG's

3. Gave up a Pick 6

The offense played better, but still cannot finish drives.

[Ken]

Why

Pilares and Captain are doing nothing. Yeah they don't fumble but we get zilch in the return game.

[Navy_football]

Agreed... have to score more TDs when in the RZ.

[lineal89]

I prefer zilch than a turnover.

[mgilmartin3]

Only TD drive that Cam lead was his fumble that we were lucky to recover in the end zone.

We are as far from clutch as you can possibly be.

You just know that there are several NFL teams that would have converted for TDs on all of our drives into the red zone. The Patriots and Giants are the first two that come to mind.

I don't expect TD's on every red zone appearance. But, this offense just can't find that ability to finish drives off.

Part is play calling and part is execution. They are just missing something.

Unbelievable... simply unbelievable. This is the worst snake-bitten team I've ever seen in my life. Nothing goes our way, ever.

This team has a loser's mentality. It seems like even they feel like they are going to blow games at the end. I think that's is the most harmful thing. Until this team get's a winner's mentality and goes out there knowing they will hold onto a win at the end, they are going to continue to lose.

[JawnyBlaze]

Excluding the full retard mode (coaching) on the last two Bears drives, today was easily the best defensive performance I've seen from a Panthers team in half a decade probably. Maybe more.
