Cam is shell shocked.

My worry when it was said that Byron Bell would be the starting left tackle going into the season was that Cam would become shell shocked. I convinced myself that Cam was too far along in his career to get that way. Low and behold, he's shell shocked.

What is shell shock for a QB? Well, watch David Carr play. When he played with Houston, he had no time to throw. Every play, there was a defender breathing down his neck. eventually, he seen ghosts of players who weren't there.

Cam is there now. His footwork is suffering because of the constant pressure, his confidence is suffering because his offensive line is so bad. He's rattled. If we're not careful, it could have long lasting implications.

it's a disgrace watching this happen, Cam has so much talent and we're so lucky to have a QB like him, O-line shouldv'e been addressed before anything. I would rather have mcnutt and king out there running routes if it meant we could've had one more decent lineman

A player like Cam will last longer than "staff". Stop ur bullshyte

riiiiiggght......

 the reality is Getts knows what "HE" wants and its clearly not what he has allowed RR to display. 

Cam must test the market if he is demanding paper as some are saying. BTW, last time I checked, he liked winning. sadly he changed his on camera image and is clearly biting his tongue so only a fool would think he's all good with what is going on here. btw the smitty situation was NOT a good look in terms of considering this team long term under Getts/RR. Brace yourself.

oline was as solid if not better when it mattered tonight vs recent weeks. offensive play calling is the issue. oh boy has no clue what a 3-4 is. its like he does what he didn't do last week every week. smh...and that kills us early every game. we are playing for close games not to go for their throat and wrap it up. we will not serve up a meaningful blowout this season at this rate.

Our offence as a whole is fugged this year. I think as Zod pointed out when he was promoted Shula has taken every offence he has been given and drove it into the ground.

No doubt the Panthers are treating Cam newton the same way David Carr was treated by the texans.

 

Only hope is, and I'm sure of it.

Cam Newton is twice the man carr ever was.

Cam will never sign a 2nd contract with the Panthers unless management pulls their heads out of their assholes.

If they don't there will be contentious Franchise Tags and more failure along the line of Julius Peppers and Hardy.

      BREAKING!!! Panthers signing Packers LT Rasheed Walker

      By frankw · Posted

      The OL has certainly been better than the trainwreck it was three or four years ago. As far as competitiveness let's apply some realism and clarity here. Quite a bit of the competitiveness in 2025 came from the defensive side of the ball which gave up the most points in league history the year before and was one of the bottom 5 units in terms of salary cap allocation for 2025 while the OL was top 3. We had the 26th passing offense last year. And if not for a herculean couple of games from Rico Dowdle we don't back our way into the division title or make the playoffs because we went 4-6 in our final ten games including being swept by the Saints who were starting a rookie 2nd round pick most of us mercilessly mocked when they selected him. In conclusion yes we've seen a difference. The question now is will the investment pay off the way we want. But the only way that happens is if we field a top 15 offense. If we can't even crack the top 20 then there need to be some very warm seats across the board. And I would hope just about anyone here should agree with that.

      These Spurs are lowkey loaded.  If healthy, they could win it all this year (#2 in the West right now). I still think we’ve gotta keep Kalk on Wemby; he’s not getting completely dominated like every other NBA center.

      Am I the only one who doesn't understand this fan bases infatuation with adding a high end TE? Especially when we have some bigger bodies in T-Mac and Coker who can slide into the slot at times and provide the big dependable target over the middle that most teams use their TE for. I mean, sure, it would be nice to have one of those elite TE's, but I feel like that's a position your better off going cheap with a committee who each bring something different to the table while spending our cap room on the more important positions. I like the potential we saw from Evans this year, Sanders could be a best if he can stay healthy, and Tremble has improved as well.  Just feels like spending high draft picks or cap space on other needs and more important positions is a better use of our resources than splashing on a TE in the draft or FA. Are those guys on the level of the Bowers or McBride's of the world?  Of course not, but we also are paying a fraction of the cost on our TE room than they are, and we're able to use that money for other needs.
