Didn’t say any of that. I was all in on Cam, hence my picture on here. If one of you could detail one facet of the game that Cam was better at than Josh Allen, I’m all ears. Just one. I’ll wait.

Dude I have a Cam jersey and was a massive Cam fan. I literally got in a fight at the Saints NFCS Championship game in 2013 because people behind me were yelling “Sir Cameron Newton: Leader of Men, Lover of Puppies...Esquire”. You cannot watch Josh Allen and tell me that Cam ever approached anything close to what you see from him on a consistent basis. Cam did it for one season and Allen has done it now for four. Cam was set in his ways. As much as I liked watching him, it was painfully obvious that he wasn’t improving and, if anything, continuously regressed following his peak in 2015. I can be a fan and also recognize a persons shortcomings. Cam was always at the top and didn’t have to put in the same amount of work as a lesser, physically talented person has to put it. He got comfortable and he fell. That mountain top is sharp and you either keep building or you teeter and fall. Sure, he was an alpha, but what did that lead to? One great year. Aside from that, he was average at best.

I don’t care if he wanted to leave. You sign a contract, you play, period. No one forced you to sign the contract. Hes going to get there and go for over 100 yards tonight, guaranteed, while Bryce looked lost yet again.

What do you mean? This makes zero sense. Would the Jets trade Garrett Wilson to see what they had in Fields? Would the Dolphins trade Waddle to see what they had in Tua? That is the most ridiculous take I’ve ever heard on this board. You don’t trade your best receiver to see what you have in a QB. You go find a younger version of that receiver and build your QB up.

Cam could have been there but his lack of desire to truly improve killed his shot. That comes from always being the biggest guy in the room. Allen had to come from JuCo, through Wyoming, and then to the NFL where he was terrible. He was forced to work. Another guy that has followed a similar path, that has a big arm and I’ve seen in person, is Joey Aguilar now at Tennessee. I wanted us to pick him up out of App as a late round pick but he got one more year of eligibility, and he’s taking advantage of it. He’s got potential to be an NFL QB and is used to the work required to constantly elevate.

Can we officially say that losing Thielen was impactful to this team? Every time he was out last year, we sucked. Then Coker goes down and we are left with a rookie, a first year guy, and Renfrow. Our tight end is stiff and unreliable in the passing game. We gave up the glue that pulled this offense together. I have zero faith in this program working. Bryce can ball, but he needs more receivers like Thielen and less like what the Buccaneers have, which is what it seems that Canales is pushing for.

Cam was a poor man’s Josh Allen, and it wasn’t particularly close between them. He was a guy with all of the talent in the world that didn’t want to put in the work or take his coaching which is why he never had sustained success.

Cam was notoriously set in his ways, too. I would be surprised if he put in 10% of the work to improve his mechanics and ownership of the game. Josh manages to get to the line with 20 seconds on the play clock. Josh knows how to set-up the defense. Josh can throw on a rope 65 yards downfield in year 8. There really is no comparison to be made between Cam and Josh anymore. It's sad to me but it's true. Josh is what Cam could have been had he put in the same amount of work, which I'm fairly confident he didn't.

I think Richardson could succeed but the Colts tried the Allen method without realizing that Richardson was even less advanced than Allen was coming out. They should have gone the Green Bay method. If they did, he may be ready to play by now. it all comes down to player development. I don’t know that he will ever truly develop but if he doesn’t, he would make a great tight end.

Anthony Richardson is the closest thing to Josh Allen as you could get, if he could get the right staff. He played 12 games in college, he should have sat for three years before ever starting in the NFL, period. I’d be fine trading for him if it was for a late round pick. Sign a bridge QB, let him stew, hiring some offensive people from the Bills who knows how Josh’s development took place. that said, Josh is one of one period. He’s a good human being, great teammate, great leader, intelligent, big, fast, physical, and he can throw a ball 65 yards on a rope. It really is crazy considering how he looked coming out of Wyoming. The crazy thing is that most every player you see in the NFL, the Panthers have had the ability to draft at one time or another. No one to blame for sucking other than Tepper, in my opinion. This has been the worst stretch in franchise history and it began with him.

He’s the best QB in the NFL right now. I’ve been saying that going back to the end of 2023. He has done more with less. Give him what the Ravens have and I think he’s got multiple Super Bowls at this point. I know Ravens fans and other people thought Lamar deserved the MVP last year but Allen, and really their last two match-ups, showed why Allen won it. I don’t know if the Bills have the team to win a Super Bowl but they are good, and that’s because of Allen. Watching them makes me realize the Panthers will never compete so long as Young is the starter. He just doesn’t have “it”. Maybe it’s a bit unrealistic to compare but Allen’s arm strength is pretty demoralizing. He threw for 251 yards, in the 4th quarter. Bryce has thrown for 251 yards once or twice?

His intellect? I can see who lives in the city or suburbs just from these comments. A lot of prejudice is oozing through here with this idea that everyone from the country are a bunch of bumbling idiots. As I learned from my boss who was recently fired, pretending you’re the smartest person in the room doesn’t make you the smartest person in the room. You’ve literally never met the guy, yet make presumptions based on select publications of him and what he does in the offseason.

We also aren’t a “QB grave yard”. Sam played fine once Rhule was gone and instead of doubling down on a .500 team, Tepper opted for yet another full rebuild.

It really doesn’t matter. Bryce isn’t an area thrower, he’s a precision passer. You need guys who run precision routes and gain separation. This organization is constantly trying to fit a square peg through a round hole and it’s to the point that I just don’t care anymore. we should have taken Golden or Warren, period.

It wasn’t all on Bryce but you’re not winning when you turn the ball over three times and throw for 154 yards. We are lucky this game wasn’t 42-3, because that’s what it felt like. I watch a lot of football. I am convinced we should have taken Matthew Golden and kept Thielen. Bryce needs a quick hitting offense to function.

28-3.

That’s a good decision. I think Brown will have a bigger impact than Parsons. Without Brown, Parsons would have been a JAG, and an injured one at that. Backs don’t usually get better in this game. He may go to Green Bay and be great, or he could fade into injury obscurity.

He’s going in to Year 2. What is your issue with him? What are the other options? Develop who you draft.

You think Parson's has that much more of an impact than Brown? Did you watch the Panthers defense last year? Brown is a perennial All-Pro candidate.

UNCG’s campus signs are burgundy?

Guilford College is a meme?

I remember people here saying it was ridiculous that we didn't draft Hooker, and that he would be someone we regretted passing on.
