Cam Newton was the best offensive player in Super Bowl 50

Breaking news at 11: Older white guy on the internet posts a dumb ass comment.

Let's be honest, I have heard with my own ears older black dudes say the same sh!t. 

That's fine that you think you need to be some kind of defender...but, fans like me, did immature crap and see the same in Cam, and don't want that for him. I'm tired of the grow up crap surrounding Cam. We are always growing up, and tbh Cam won't react the same way again. So I'm over it and let it go...

Well, for me personally, there was nothing to "get over" regarding the entire matter.

The face of our franchise was very upset about losing the biggest game of his career, and the biggest game in the history of our franchise? Oh the horror!

Yet the same people so worried about this conveniently forget to mention how classy he was toward Manning after the game.

Maybe so, but as leader of his team he still lost the game, no excuses.

you have no idea how bad i wish i could travel back in time to 2014 and make a bunch of bets with guys like this on whether andrew luck or cam newton would play in a super bowl or win league MVP first

This exactly.

PFF gave him a +1.6 positive grade. He ran effectively, threw some great deep balls, and had a ton of drops plus tackles that were playing poorly. All things considered, he played about as well as you'd expect anyone to in that situation.

Honestly I did think Cam had a good game in the flow of things. He didn't have anything to work with and still moved the ball quite a bit. He did fumble twice but we had other turnovers that cost us as well from the running backs and a tipped ball by Ginn that was picked in the redzone. Overall I thought Cam could have played better but still played well. It felt like he wore down running the ball. I kept expecting him to make something happen in the 4th quarter and he looked done as a runner.

This pisses me off more then the lost tbh, you have your qb still playing at a high level even with the defenses t'ing off on him and the guys around him can't make one play or hold on to the ball. Besides Philly and ginn occasionally no one bothered to show up offensively and guess who gets all the blame by dumbass haters, Cam does. Can't wait for Sept to get here, and I hope we go all out getting some guys in here who can catch, most costly and consistent thing holding this team back 

 

 

We we reverted back to 2011 panthers during the SB where cam has to play a damn near perfect game to give us a chance at winning.

So anything other than "Cam sucks" is an excuse, got it. LOL

I actually think Cam should be flattered by the Broncos defense thinking they "shut him down". If they consider 265 passing and 49 rushing a "shut down" that tells you how much they respect and fear what Cam can do.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
