I wonder what this clown's Wonderlic score was.  Ironic that the league is discontinuing giving the tests for "racial bias" when this tweet subtly proves their point.

There seems to be a massive gulf between reality and Robby's perception of his own value to an NFL team.

Given his cap hit, Robby Anderson is a net negative. 

I get it, there's a long history of NFL WRs being divas, but most of those divas are HOF candidate caliber. Robby is on his way to becoming Freddie Mitchell. I'm just waiting for him to thank his hands for being so great.

"Thank them?"  He's probably insured them.

In case of injury suffered from patting himself on the back.

I seriously doubt Kap even wants to play in the NFL anymore

Certainly not.  That would require him to actually DO something to earn a living.

At least he's willing to admit it. I agree with him though. If you don't have a QB then QB is always your biggest need and historically your best bet by far of finding a franchise QB is in the 1st round of the draft.

However, my concern remains this crew's ability to evaluate QB talent. I haven't seen much to hang my hat of hopes on there. Hell, I think they might even realize it themselves, hence their hesitancy to draft one.

It didn't strike me as a "hesitancy to draft one" at all.  More like he wanted to keep drafting one until they got it right -- or got lucky.  Kind of a crap shoot mentality.

Glad you found my comments amusing.

But as I'm celebrating my 82nd birthday tomorrow, I'm in no mood for concerning myself about you.  (a civilized way of saying, "I don't give a s__t")

IF Cam plays for the Panthers this year, I'll go on record that either he or CMC will be Comeback POY.

I say this in the context of the sweeping changes that have already been made to improve our Offense -- all of which would greatly benefit each of these much maligned superstars.

So many Huddlers wanted CMC traded ("injury prone and undependable because of it") and Cam avoided ("washed up, no arm, one-trick pony, easily defensed")

But those ways of thinking are recency-biased.

The addition of more than competent coaches (OC and OL) -- as opposed to the incompetentcy that both Cam and CMC had to abide, and the acquisition of a G and C that can actually run-block and protect -- these are sea changes that make the past record irrelevant.  Last year, we had an OL of rag-tag losers imitating turnstiles, and coaches who showed no imagination in play-calling.  As I see it, even having a C whose default move isn't 6 yds backwards would probably result in 10-14 more points a game.

I'm sure even Darnold would show improvement behind our revamped OL (and it's not done yet -- a LT is coming, either from FA or the draft); but Cam would, IMO, have a much higher upside.  I fervently hope he gets the chance, and accepts it.

Apparently, we gotta trust the Process.

Best reply!  A lineman must use his whole body.  Feet are more important, in my opinion, than arm length.  To put it another way, 'it's not the size of the apendage that matters but how you use it'.

Or, as (I believe it was Billie Holiday who sang it), "it's not the meat, it's the motion."

This will be an ol' fashioned ass-whuppin'.

Our Defense is embarrassed and angry, and the only way they can be stopped from carrying out a vengeful slaughter is with a power running game -- and Miami doesn't possess one.

There will be at least 7 sacks, as Miami gets behind and Tua has to pass  (or attempt to), and 1-2 of those will be strips and turnovers.  There will be a S/T or Defensive score, plus 3 passing TDs by Cam, and a long rushing TD by CMC.

38-0.

Again, we get our wild card hopes up.

Shaq Thompson should get his share of the blame for the poor run defense, IMO.

Maybe he's the guy Reddick was referring to.

Whether that's true, or not, there's no excuse for your "top" LB to only make 1 tackle and 3 assists, when the other team's feasting on runs up the middle.

In his presser, he says the old deflection line, "We've got to play better."  How about say "I"?

Cam really needs to play with a calm mind

Calm won't be a problem.  He is a serene, mature family man, who happens to play with energy, passion, and power.

I guess we could call him Calm Newton.

Not sure if posted before, but Chase Young tore his ACL.

I mentioned it in the OP.  One of the reasons I enumerated in calling for the win.

His absence severely limits their pass rush.

his defenses are usually great

WFT has given up 246 pts in 9 games.  That's not considered even "usually" great.

I dunno man, it looked more like the Bucs beat the Bucs and the WTF's just happened to be on the field while it happened.  I don't think it will be "easy", but our defense is on a different level.

Yeah, let's not give Rivera so much credit.  If he's so great, how come WFT has only 3 wins?  That was just a bad 1Q for Brady.  It happens.

Cam abides.

Panthers win 31-9

Not sure if you expect 3 FGs from Joey Slye, or for him to miss an EP.

Either way, that's a good estimate of the final result.  A back-to-back win of that nature would indicate a trend, no?

The ball did reach DJ's hands. He was mugged so he didn't haul it in obv. But for a 32 year old qb that has been with the team less than a full week he got us closer than the previous 24 year old qb who sailed balls over receivers heads or out of bounds consistently.

You are correct, sir.  This was NOT an underthrow.  If DJ wasn't being mugged by Wilson the last 8 yds downfield, he catches the ball in stride, and trots in; then everybody's gushing over Cam's arm.

Beneficial penalty on the DB, but he prevented the TD.  Y'all had best be alert -- there will be plenty of these to DJ and Robby, off play-action, in the games to come.

Some people never learn

Just my take, my man.  Be superstitious or pessimistic as you like -- that's your right, too.

Tell you what -- if we don't win, I'll not do it again.

But digest what I said, and tell me where I'm wrong -- about any of it.

Cam knows Robby has potential untapped in recent games, and they have had little contact before this week.

Dinners -- cigars -- sharing the podium.  Cam sometimes is subtle; all this is designed to get Robby to soak in his enthusiasm, and bond them to a QB/WR force.  Note that he didn't have DJ up there with him.

Watch for the deep ball, off play action, in the weeks to come.

It’s too inept to not laugh at 

Well, aren't you just the superior, all-knowing snot!  Bet you're fun at parties, too.

Back off awhile, and let those of us who love and admire Cam (for all he did for this team and this city) enjoy the moment.  Nobody needs your soaking wet blanket thrown on the occasion.

And don't reply with that "ignore me if you don't like my freedom of speech" BS -- I just did.
