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")?

    • yeah, I can get a little of that.  But that's not what he is posting in his argument just now though.   He said people wouldn't even concede to the literal ability to do it when pressed on the literal ability.  I have never seen that.  He maintains it exists somewhere.  I mean, using anomaly games to make arguments about players just isn't the way.   There wasn't a defender within 10 yards of our guys on 2 of those 3 throws Sunday.  No one within 5 on the 3rd.   That's not Bryce Young answering questions about his play downfield..  That's Bryce Young taking advantage of coverage busts by a bad D.  Which hey, that's part of the game too.  Recognition and seeing the field.   It can't totally be dismissed.   That's still good play.  You want your QBs to make those plays.  But it's not getting into the long standing critique of BY IMO.   
    • Deserved, I wouldn’t use that word. Asked for? For sure. Am I upset over it? No.  People forget that AT was throwing his helmet in frustration last season over his QB’s ineptitude. The same QB was pretty inept to start this year, no guarantee AT would have helped him in those games any more than he did last year.  Just sayin.  And Dan doing him a solid probably did not go unnoticed by players around the league. I think it increases his rep with potential FAs. It sure can’t hurt it. 
    • You think that was the fault of the guy that was lighting it up or maybe the bums around him? Funnily enough, those bums are still being bums in his absence. Who would have thought!
