Always liked his fire. If he had just a bit more in terms of physical tools he could have been an all time great. 

That's what his career always was, really... what could have been. If he had the ball last in 2003, he could have won. If we had found a way to keep Moose in 2005, he could have made another Super Bowl. If he hadn't had that injury in 2007, he could have made another great playoff run or even an MVP push. For a guy who was so good in the clutch, he might be the unluckiest QB we've ever had.

Ill always have a special kind of man crush on Jake.

The way he bled for us, gave us every ounce of his skills, and never gave the Panthers any less than his very best...

Sometimes it was a train wreck and sometimes it was just plain magic.

 

Love the guy and wish 90% of our guys today had half the heart Jake did.

Dats mah coonass QB!

    • Incorrect, I have watched us consistently over quite a number of years. When I say Cam relied on athleticism, I simply mean his dual threat style and athleticism overshadowed the deficiencies in the passing game (his own or those created by the system).  Now I wouldn’t disagree that our OCs over that time were not amazing and arguably held him back, but correct me if I’m wrong, Cam had a habit of locking onto his receivers and overthrowing them. Gettleman even drafted two big receivers - Kelvin Benjamin and Devin Funchess - to give Cam receivers with a big catch radius.  Again, correct me if I’m wrong, but Cam had some mechanical issues. For example, the reliance on arm strength over touch and his footwork often led to him throwing off the back foot. There were many debates on these boards about his mechanics, with far more knowledgeable posters than I braking down what he needed to improve on. End of the day, I was as big a Cam fan as the next person, but he did have his shortcomings as a passer. Had he played under someone like Sean McVay or a similar offensive guru, with a high quality QB coach, then I’m sure they would have ironed out the kinks and he would have been far more dangerous and successful than he was. And that’s a scary thought of what he could have been under the likes of a McVay! 
    • It's true that we are not scoring at a much higher clip than the Saints. They're averaging ~18.4 with Shough and in that same span we're averaging ~19, so pretty close, despite Bryce having better TD numbers over that period. Both our teams are a far, far cry from the NFL average of 23.3...
    • I like when this big kat is going crazy panther fan and not the pat jersey betting against persona.
