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")?

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
