A little Cam Newton praise....

24/35

 

250 Yards

 

1 TD

 

0 INT

 

Completed passes  to 7 different players.

 

 

Considering how absolutely terrible the offensive line played yesterday, I feel like this may be one of Cam's better performances in a long while.

 

He has made great strides in making his progressions this year. When he gets healthy again and is able to run like the Cam of old, he is going to be the complete player we all knew he could be.

I think it's the silver lining in the dark cloud of his injuries. He can't rely on running anymore so he has had to focus on his passing game and I believe when he is 100% he's going to be more lethal than ever. I just hope he survives the season. At this rate he may be only playing 1-2 more games before he sustains a serious injury if his protection doesn't shore up.

I believe last week he completed passes to 7 different receivers, as well.  

He's gotten better every year since he's been in the league.  When he gets back to 100%, he's going to be an absolute terror for opposing defenses.  Not only can he break out and run on you, but he can also surgically destroy you from the pocket.

He probably won't ever be 100% healthy this year.

 

I was just talking to my sister about this. Eric Staal from the canes had a knee injury in 2012 and couldn't do preseason workouts for the 2013 season. He never really played up to his full potential the entire season.

 

I am expecting something similar from Cam. I think this ankle will take longer to get back to normal than he thought.

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      I'm probably one of those posters, but I make those posts because there are too many things going on that don't make sense. For instance, how does a RB that does something that hasn't been done in 14 years immediately get reverted back to 2nd string, and it takes a leadership council to make him the starter when he's averaging 3x the YPC? Your average fan shouldn't be screaming that for 2 weeks before the coach sees it. And that's one of many.  What you're seeing is frustration that we could be better, that we should be better, if our owner, FO, and coaches could do things that are so painfully obvious to even the most basic fan

      Cowboys. Patriots. Couldn't ask for two bigger villains.

      I think we're all struggling with what things are right now and what they have been. It's like getting ready to have bandages removed after a long period of injury. The healing, the new growth, they aren't going to be pretty, there's going to be some ongoing issues for a while at best and there's every chance that we're going to have to go back into the bandage situation all over again. And that sucks. But it's also a place where maybe, just maybe, the recovery is going to finally start happening. The bad days will be getting behind us.  It's not going to happen this year, but I believe from what I see that this year is showing that improvement. We focus on the QB because that's what all the pundits focus on, because it's the flashiest and most heralded position on the field. No one wants to put out a tweet about how a center is holding down their job and anchoring a line. They rarely celebrate that blocking tight end or special teams gunner. That fourth CB on the depth chart? Not a mention. And yet, those guys are the kind that we've been building here, we're building the lunch pail guys AND finding some future stars.  Is Bryce one of them? Might be a cornerstone of the team in the future as the second QB, might somehow just show out to end the season. Might flame out like many expect. But if that uncertainty is all we concentrate on, we're just going to miserably look at this team and maybe miss out on some solid green shoots that are finally beginning to poke through into the sunlight.
