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")?

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
