So...thoughts?

So... why doesn't the rookie WR get the same benefit of the doubt and the same excuses the veteran QB gets on this board?

Where did I say he doesn't?

Good point, huh?

I don't expect Benjamin to catch every ball. He's a rookie thrown into the #1 position.

BUT you can't blame Cam when his receivers drop balls in the end zone. If you do, you better start blaming the receivers when they can't catch an overthrown ball.

Cam really needs to fix those damn high passes, he has that problem coming out of Auburn. It's not about OL.

 

Actually, there was not a lot of tape on him throwing coming out of Auburn because they threw very little there, they didn't have to.  Tape on his career passes didn't add up to nearly one season for most college QB's.  Doubt we got a lot from his tapes except that he had a cannon for an arm

i said in another thread,

i never thought i would say this. but if cam walked i wouldn't be surprised.

i knew the o-line was gonna be rough. but i didn't think about the full ramifications. I hope this remaining "easy" schedule builds his confidence back up. and i hope he stays with us.

I'd see him wanting to go to a place that gives him the tools and personal that give him a chance to succeed. That is not us right now. Could that be us? We have next year

This fanbase doesn't deserve Cam Newton

 

I agree with you AND Cam.  I wish he would walk.  The defense handed him the ball 4 times in the first and he threw 4 out of 6 uncatchable balls.  His rushing is his only game.  His RBs had a good start.  He had plenty of time to get the ball off.  Cam: "It was all on me."   And it was.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
