Few young players in the history of the NFL have been depended on as much as Cam Newton, and none have produced more offense through three seasons. But that dependence only seems to be growing with time … and it comes with sizable risk for the future of Carolina Panthers football.

 

I can't get it to show up correctly here, but there's an interesting table in the article showing the percentage of offense generated by notable QBs, and Cam leads the pack by a large margin at 78% of his team's offense, ahead of Peyton Manning at 73%

That tells us that our running backs need to contribute more along with better run blicking.

This is actually a really good and well-written article. I agree, we need to set up a power running game, get some receivers, and take the load off of Cam's back.

Kb and turner is a great start

Just think how good the O will be once there is adequate help for Cam.

Here ya go:

 

 

Nice find by the way.  Good perspective from the mind of a Cam hater.

the issue for me is how long it took for that start to happen.

I don't understand why young writers need to use foul language in their work. It doesn't add anything and makes them sound like your typical beer swilling, loud mouth down at the bar.

Didn't click on link/read article.

 

However, writer's only telling us something we already know. However we appreciate the acknowledgement.

yea definitely. his rookie year he had a solid supporting cast, but nothing happened the next two years.

 

anyways i've begun to notice a trend in people how they view Cam irl. more people who doubted him and were calling him a "stat-*****" are starting to say, "wow Cam is doing all of this by himself, he has nobody like A. Luck, Kaepernick and Wilson"

 

and i just sit there and smile like you fuging retard i've been saying this for years.

i think we had a good start his rookie year, esp. with the TE twin towers. letting shockey go was a mistake. not replacing him was an even bigger one. tolbert was a good investment, but mainly that was because our starting RBs have been pretty ineffective and/or hurt.

we didn't have to go nuts to build around him. just adding a little here and there would have been better than letting talent walk and/or just sitting and ignoring that side of the ball like we have. last year was ok in adding ginn but still that was a feeble attempt to give cam some more help. what they've done with the OL has been just awful, though. sure, turner may be a future all-pro, but when your discussion for how to handle OT after losing your probowl franchise LT is either replacing him with a failed RT or a DT who used to be a OT who used to be a TE. that reeks of desperation and/or bullheadedness.

it's desperation.

 

bottom line. they don't have such big egos that they think everything is hunky dory at OT. it's kind of it is what it is situation. and then the cap situation on top of that.

 

these are the growing pains
