If Cam has an MVP type season, what will be the reason?

It will mean:

He will be #27 on the top 100.  They will start the clip by saying. ... he is alright but he isn't Andrew Luck.

Someone will make a top 10 QB list and leave him off just to drive website hits.

The people who hate him will hate him more.

There will be endless articles about his TD and first down celebrations.

Some report questioning his commitment will come out of the blue.

Someone will say he has better pocket awareness and clearly ignore that it's probably the most stable pocket he has seen since his rookie year.

Aaron Rodgers, Luck, Either of the Mannings, Drew Brees, Matt Ryan, Flacco, Roethlisburger, Kaep, Wilson, RG3, etc.. would have to have had a horrible year for Cam to win it over them.

   Well, I think he played pretty well for an injured player. I also believe he has had MVP caliber seasons (just without wins) even though he hasn't had a great supporting cast. I think a competent o-line will help as well as weapons, but I think the only way he gets MVP recognition is if the team produces wins. He could have the same stat line with a 7-8-1 team as he does with a 13-3 team but he wouldn't receive recognition with the 7-8-1 team because the wins wouldn't be there. No matter how valuable he is (and has been) to the team, he won't win MVP until the team wins. For an individual award it requires team success......that's just how it is. So, none of the above.

My answer: Wins

There won't be any one REASON. Everything you said would factor in. Plus his development will continue like it has every year. I think, despite the bad stats and what looked like bad play on the surface, he improved a lot last year and it was a big learning year for him. He was in the MVP discussion early last year before the line went haywire, even with the busted ankle and ribs and poor overall "weapons." I really hope this is THE YEAR for Cam, and I don't see any reason why it won't be. He has the ability physically and mentally to be an MVP-caliber player, and I do think it'll show this year. Only possible hinderance is Shula, but I'm willing to give him a chance now that we have better personnel to run his offense. It seemed to work well down the stretch last year, when our interior was shored up, Philly was inserted and Stew was healthy. That was evidenced by our game against Seattle where our offense was actually carrying the team. If the defense played like it should have (or we had Hardy and Star...) we scored more than enough points to win that game.

      Is Charlotte the worst sports city right now?

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I went to Canes games back in '04 & '05 when you were probably still a swimmer waiting to make your dad a father. There was no one there bc they sucked. Some of the lowest attendance in the NHL. As a Panthers fan coming off a SB season (03-04), I couldn't even believe they put a hockey team in Raleigh, and given the attendance, a lot of people speculated they would be relocated somewhere back up north where they would be supported and not "Mayberry." Seriously, educate youself.  That is reality. That being said, comparing that environment to 2024 Canes would be disingenuous. I was at PNC last year and know how great the current environment is. Comparing the current environment at BOA to 10 years ago is just as disingenuous.  Just bc you didn't witness how good BOA is when the Panthers are actually decent doesn't change reality. Seriously, surely you see that coming from such an elitist environment like the globally renowned world-class city of Raleigh, NC... I guarantee you if you went to a Canes game and a Panthers game in 2005, the difference would be unreal bc the Panthers were awesome and the Canes were (at the time) a moribund franchise. I have been in BOA when the whole stadium was rocking. You simply are young, don't know what you're talking about, but want to portray yourself as having knowledge about things you simply don't. You have a lot in common with modern day politicians and televangelists Like I said, Idiocracy has prevailed... Have a great day too!

      Let it all out bro.   At the end of the day Charlotte fans just aren't that passionate as other fans. The Panthers and Hornets crowds are wack.    Go to a Canes game and you will understand this. Tell the family I said hi and Happy Father's Day.

      Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!
