Cam was let down by his offense

Did you know that Cam was sacked (tied) for a super bowl record 7 times?! Cam's reaction is one of a person who has been let down by his supporting cast. Cam may be made for the big lights, but are those around him? It appears to me everyone around him shrunk leading to him eventually following suit (avoiding to recover the fumble). Get these guys who have no desire to be the greatest at their positions off the team ASAP.

At least he didn't throw his teammates under the bus like Manning did in 2006

Oh and a disturbing comment I read on NFL network

Kevin Alexander

What a little bitch Newton is! There he was at the after game presser lookin all Trayvon-like in his hoodie, pissed that he had to lower himself to answer questions from the media he said last week didn’t know how to handle a black quarterback like him. Then the sore loser took his Skittles and ran.

Yeah it's not about race. SMH

goodness, i knew i shouldnt have shown up here today. Cam missed a lot of throws, not sure what kind of defense mechanisms need to be derived to make people feel sorry for Cam

Yeah, I think we have established that genius.

But when your QB is getting hit within 2 seconds, especially blindside hits, it's time to alter the gameplan a bit, instead of long developing routes.

It's perfectly reasonable to criticize Cam's performance without being a hater. Shouldnt be a need to try and absolve the guy. He had a bad game. It happens.

Everything around him outside of the defense did him no favors, but he didnt do his part to try to weather the storm and let the defense get the victory which, outside of some costly fumbles, may have been possible.

Everything that could have gone wrong did. Cam included.

Did you read the stat line about the superbowl record for sacks? That's where it starts from.

Both of the sack fumbles were opposite of blind side hits, genius.

The offense let the defense down and Cam was a huge part of that. Just not fumbling the ball twice inside the 10 would have changed the game totally.  He played very poorly while guys like Ginn and Philly Brown did very well. He gets no pass in my book.

That's fair but I see it differently. He trusted his oline to protect him so he can focus on his reads. Can't blame him for any of those fumbles. Last thing you want it a QB who doesn't trust his protection enough to go through his reads.

Did I say they were blindside hits? No? But those hits attribute to mistrust throughout the game in a QB's OL.

If you can't see that, then why exactly are you posting here?

Cam didn't play a bad game. He didn't play a great one either. He missed two throws. He also made about 5 throws that should have been caught including the one pass challenged-- there was no reason for Cotch to bobble that ball-- and other Cotch drop that would have put the Panthers inside the 5. 

Cam's WRs are what they are. We need to get better and more explosive in that area.

      Ranked Panthers as the Best this year!!

      By frankw · Posted

      If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.

      it's not so much this personal vendetta against the Carolina Panthers as it is more about Bryce Young never not once been in the same conversation with the top 15 or even top 20 Qbs in the NFL ..just saying
