So my initial reactions was.....LOL

 

But what does this actually mean? Is Cam more injured than some people want to think and they have been holding him back due to his injury? This would give some credibility to those that said he should sit until he's recovered.

 

On the other hand it could mean that Rivera and company have been holding him back because they are terrible offensive minds and don't even know how to use him so they are going to finally let him do him(let him be him).

Seriously if it's the latter then I just don't know what to say anymore because literally everyone here has been wanting him to be unleashed for the last several years and it's painfully obvious they were not calling games to fit his strengths as a player.

 

Will we finally get to see the non wannabe game manager Cam? If this isn't a bout injuries then I have no clue what the fug they were waiting for.

Funny thing is hue jackson who we could of replaced shula with last offseason is doing wonders for the bengals offense. 

 

The Panthers don't look to improve until poo really goes south for awhile....we may be stuck with our dead weight for a few years....that's the mentality that gets your franchise 0 back to back winning seasons....and we've been dealing with it going on 20 years now.

 

Name the last drastic, out of the box, or bold move the Panthers made.

Panthers coach Ron Rivera admitted there is temptation to let Newton embrace his natural style of play.

 

 

 

Think about this.  What is the converse of the above statement?

 

The converse is, up to now, they have NOT LET Cam "embrace his natural style of play".

 

In other words, Cam may be digging a hole into the pocket because he's hurt.

 

But considering the above, can't it be a possibility that he's digging his hole in the pocket BECAUSE HE'S BEEN TOLD TO DO SO (i.e. not "let")?

    • Jeremy Fowler draft intel on the Panthers: “Carolina was high on Proctor. If he somehow slipped to 19, he was a viable option.” “Caleb Lomu was on the Panthers short list too.” “Panthers weren’t totally comfortable with Stowers there at 49.”   https://x.com/panthersontap/status/2049827264972353727?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA
    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
