n Charlotte, Cam Newton has his Carolina Panthers undefeated and eying a Super Bowl. Just two hours down the road in Clemson, South Carolina, Deshaun Watson has the Tigers at 10-0 and atop the College Football Playoff rankings. It’s been a wild ride for both quarterbacks, and as the season has unfolded, they have relied on each other for support.

"I know he’s been up there grinding and working hard," Watson said, "and I’m the same way. We’re both watching each other and making sure, at the end of the day, we get the Ws."

The quarterbacks have been close since Watson played in Newton’s All-Star seven-on-seven camp during his junior year of high school in 2013. Watson was a rising star in the recruiting world, but it wasn’t his talent that caught Newton’s eye. It was his approach to learning.

"He was always eager, just like a sponge," Newton said. "He’s quiet, but always looking to see how he could make his game better."

The pair got to talking, and Watson soon found that Newton had the same approach. He wasn’t much of a talker, and he liked the grind, and he loved to learn. They clicked, and the friendship blossomed from there.

I really don't care to tie the Panthers winning streak to any other team or any other sport. 

I have heard the same thing about Cam and Steph Curry of the Golden State Warriors, who are 19-0. 

They have absolutely nothing in common except the L column.  Let's let the Panthers do their thing being the only undefeated team in the NFL and leave it at that.  No need for anyone else to steal the spotlight or some of our thunder.

I LOL'd

I heard from a very reliable source that Cam and Steph had a deal that if The Warriors set a record at 19-0 in the NBA, that the Carolina Panthers would have to set their own record at 19-0.

That reliable source is as reliable as they come btw, it's me. If it sounds good andbriefs  well, then just go with it.

This is pretty cool. Maybe since i don't follow other teams i don't know this, but how many young QBs are Brady, Rodgers, or Manning mentoring like this? Cam is impacting so many young players, by time his career is over half the QBs in the NFL will have been mentored by Cam. Plus, think about all the other positions Cam will influence, like Kelvin being head over heels for Cam. More and more it'll be like a prize to come play with Cam.

    • These are the three deep throw attempts that Will Levis made in week 12. His first one is a beauty; Levis and Westbrook-Ikhine gets the safety to bite on a deep dig only to go over the top for the score. His second throw is another beauty: a crosser to Calvin Ridley reminiscent of Bryce to XL (though Ridley has noticeably more separation on his route). His third and final deep shot was an incompletion from his own endzone on 3rd & 14 with pressure coming down on him (to me, this seems like a solid throw).   Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-02.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Levis took half of the deep shots that Young did. The differences are: Ridley had much better separation than XL, which is why his deep crosser turned into a 63yd play since he was able to scamper for another 15+ after the catch. Westbrook-Ikhine holds on to his TD pass. Bryce had to throw one away to preserve time for a field goal. Bryce had two more throws that were incomplete due to the WR Are we really holding the three WR errors and clock management decision against Bryce in order to say that Will was better throwing deep in week 12? That's not passing the eye test nor is it confirmed by the data.
    • If you go on the PUP list before the season starts, you are gone for the year. If you start the year on the PUP list then you can get off of it. Kind of semantics, but we are putting him on the PUP list now which is before week 1, that’s why people who come off of it aren’t really on the PUP list until week 1, hence you usually hear right before the season that they are “starting the year” on the PUP list. I think PUP list and IR may basically be the serve the same purpose now because you also sometimes hear that if a player is added to the IR before week 1 that they aren’t eligible to come off the IR list for the entire year. Now, everyone added to IR (post week 1) can come off after 4 (or more) games so the PUP list is meaningless since it’s 6 games and starts at week 1. Anyone added to PUP or IR in the preseason is gone for the year.
