Since 2011, only Brady (20) and Wilson (15) have more wins in Dec/Jan than Cam Newton (14)

They have played more games

 

I have to question that stat. Looking at PFR:

 

I count Newton playing in 20 games (18 regular season, 2 postseason) and winning 15 (including last week's win over Arizona). Newton has 14 regular season wins and 1 postseason win.

 

Wilson's only played 18 games total in December/January (14 regular season, 4 postseason), winning 15. Wilson has 12 regular season wins and 3 postseason wins.

 

Brady has obviously played many more games, 83. Not even going to bother counting, because big numbers.

so you're saying in Dec/Jan, Cam is 15-5 and Wilson is 15-3

Yes. In the regular season, Newton is 14-4 and in the postseason, he is 1-1. 15-5 total.

 

In the regular season, Wilson is 12-2 and in the postseason, he is 3-1. 15-2 total.

 

 

 

Okay, now I have figured it out. This stat has to include regular season and postseason, and it had to be put out there before the Panthers beat the Cards last week.

 

Sorry for the brainfart earlier when I was talking about Brady with 83... wasn't paying attention to the 2011 parameter for him.

 

But I still stand by the fact that Wilson hasn't played in more games than Cam.

My bad. Brain lapse and forgot Wilson came into the league a year later.

Brain was thinking since Wilson has been in the league....forgetting Cam was around before for a year. So Wilson has played in more if just looking at games since he arrived.

Last 3 years including postseason to date ....Cam is 13-3 and I have Wilson at 16-3. I wasn't thinking though and left out Cam's 2011

Wilson has the better win % career wise though

Not sure why I count 16 for Wilson though (used PFR)

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
