This Has Been A Terrible NFL Season

4. The Carolina Panthers are 9-0. I’m less mad about the Bengals being 8-1 than I am about the Panthers being 9-0 because the Bengals actually have a quarterback who can throw the ball on a dime. (Until there’s a modicum of pressure. Then he’s Blaine Gabbert.) The Panthers, to be honest, do not. Cam Newton has a worse completion percentage than Nick Foles, Jameis Winston and Colin Kaepernick. He’s not a good passer at all. He brings so many things to the table and improves his football team, but it’s not because of his arm.

Look, Carolina is a fine football team. They might be a good football team. There’s the slightest chance they may a very good football team. But this is not a 9-0 team. Since 1990, 19 teams have started 9-0 and if you’re telling me the Panthers are one of the best 20 teams of the past quarter-century I’m laughing in your face, heartily, while still appreciating Cam Newton’s dance moves because I think we all wish we could move like that, yes, even you, lady who complained about it. You know you do.

So this is NOT a 9-0 team.....except for the fact that we ARE a 9-0 team.

This hack should never be allowed to write again...most pathetic example of crap that I have ever read.

It's so painfully obvious when they try to write articles when they haven't actually watched the games.  Ironic that this is coming right after Cam goes 21/26 for an 80.8% completion rate vs. the Titans.  The next NFL game when Dalton completes 80+% of his passes will be his first ever.  Cam's career best single game completion rate is 88.24%.

      TNF: Rams/Seahawks

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
