With paragraphs like this:

Questions about maturity dogged Newton for years. But he has largely put that to rest over time, and the Panthers were confident enough to hand him a five-year, $103 million contract extension in the off-season that made him among the highest-paid players in the league.

I'll pass on this article, and had to stop as soon as I read the above paragraph. Just rehashing the "same ole, same ole" regurgitated, hyperbolic nonsense to cover themselves before complimenting.

hillary strikes me as the archetypical power-hungry politician and i can't distinguish her from the establishment of the past 30 years on much of anything besides social issues (and even there she sways with the wind.)

but that's tinderbox fodder

“I think Cam has taken a pretty typical path toward leadership,” tight end Greg Olsen said. “I think he did it naturally. I think he did it both by his play and by the way he does things off the field. I think when you come in as a young player, as he did, with such expectations and such high regard with what he accomplished, first overall pick and all that, obviously there’s a lot of expectation placed on you. He’s done everything and more to surpass those expectations both from his performance and his development into a leadership position.”

Because the truth of the matter, the only expectations that need to be raised are ours. The only standard we need to play to is ours. The thing that you have to be careful about is the outside noise. People are going to talk — ‘16-0, 19-0!’ So that’s one of the things you try to tell everybody: ‘Hey, manage the expectations.’

“I think we’ve gone through enough in my five seasons here that certain things we’re able to cope and deal with.”

 

Worth the read.  Thanks for the link.

Have I mentioned I love this team?

    • It was a team loss, because it's a team game.  I even admitted so in the above post.  That does not deflect or shield a player or players for their role in that loss. Horn's penalty and Hubbard's fumble were super costly.   What was your intent on starting this thread with an All-22 pass play?  Did you honestly think there would be no controversy around Bryce?  Then go on to say if anyone disagrees they are 100% anti-Bryce.  Really?  I've stated over and over again my position on Bryce.  At this point, he's not the pre-benching '24 Bryce, that guy is largely gone.  However, his ceiling is game manager level for like 80% of his outings, that being middling...10% really good and 10% awful.  That's not my idea of a franchise QB.  The notion that we just have to maximize everything around him to nudge him above game manager level is not only unrealistic, but one sided...literally.  The defense has taken a back seat as a priority on this team, yet we complain about it.  How many die hard NFL fans can name anyone on our defense outside of Brown and Horn?  Heck most fair weather Panthers fan couldn't either.
    • People have genuinely ignored the fact that Horn is having a very underwhelming season overall. The INT's are way up but a lot of the other metrics have not been very kind. He has had a disappointing year overall by his standards.
    • their pass defense is good but not that good.  they are giving up on average 198 yards passing per gamd which is higher than byoungs average per game.  their pass defense is basically the same as the panthers pass d
