1. Aaron Rodgers, QB Packers

2. J.J. Watt, DE Texans

3. Tom Brady, QB Patriots

4. Aaron Donald, DT Rams

5. Khalil Mack, LB Raiders

6. Rob Gronkowski, TE Patriots

7. Luke Kuechly, LB Panthers

Kuechly has established himself as the best middle linebacker in the league, and he’s constantly evolving his game. His instincts have always been top notch and, over the last few years, his blitzing and pass coverage has steadily improved.

13. Cam Newton, QB Panthers

Even after an MVP season, people are still sleeping on Newton’s quarterbacking skills. Yes, he’s the biggest run threat at the position, but he’s much more than that. Newton is excellent in the pocket, comfortable working through his progressions and one of the best and most active quarterbacks before the snap. He puts all of those skills on display here:

 

 

 

 

Meh.  Not going to post the link.

Bleh. MVP season with no receivers at the time whatsoever, and still went 15-1 with the whole offense on his shoulders. Cam doesn't make it to the top 10 in most of these rankings. But Rodgers somehow still manages to get to the tippy top. If I remember correctly, his season last year wasn't the most stellar for him at all. But oh well. 

When Cam makes his MVP season this year look like child's play next year, the media pundits will still manage to find some silly excuse as to why he's not the clear number 1. It's their job after all.

Still don't know how Donald and Mack are ranked ahead of Luke.......        Both are basically one year wonders,  and do not deserve to be ahead of someone like Luke,  that has been at the top of his position since he came into the league.

 

That is the logic most are using when it comes to not including Cam in the top 10 of these insignificant lists.         Oh well,  at least these lists offer up some form of a talking point.

Im guessing their sack #s is whats pushing them so high.  The media loves SACKS.

Come the fug on bro #13?

Cam doesn't have to be the best "QB" in the game yet to be the best "player". Those are two different things .

I mean they put overrated piece of poo Drew Brees at #9. What in the actual fug?

Connor Orr step on down bro

Cam had a MVP season (15-1) wjth a Super Bowl run with weak WRs and weak OT in a vertical offense.  No other QB in the NFL could of done that because no other QB physical could of survived and made it work.  

13?....smh

I like how the author praises Cam as unrecognized for his greatness and still puts him at 13. What bullshit. 

 

It's like the media had a mindwipe to the things Cam did last season. 

It's a mindwipe of the last 5 years. Let's face it, Cam is going to have to prove himself every year.

Pretty stupid article, attempting to rank players based on how they'll be in 2016 before training camp.

For the record, there are 6 Panthers on the list:

Luke #7

Cam #13

KK #23

Kalil #52

TD #60

Greg #65

[for the curious: J-No ranked at #67]

no Stewart or Turner even though they were pro-bowlers in 2015.

      Carolina Panthers a Wild Card Team?

      By pantherclaw · Posted

      It's just a talking head.  Talking about gambling. If anybody takes the under on 4.5 wins, they're most likely losing their money.   So he's only saying if you want to bet on a possible sleeper, take the over.  It's not rocket science.  Pathetic that so many on the huddle have reduced themselves to posting purely trash every time they hit the submit button.

      I mean I think the best case scenario has to hit for the Panthers and everyone else in the NFCS has to hit their worst case scenario.  Personally, I think this is the year that NO finally collapses and I think they finish 4th in the division regardless.  ATL is overrated but still likely a 6-9 win team. TB plays tough football, their defense will be there but their success depends on the offense, they too are a 6-9 win team.  The Panthers are probably 4-6 wins at best. If they find some sort of momentum during the season and get 7-8 wins, and TB and ATL struggle then maybe but I find it very unlikely.

      2025 QB Draft Class

      By 45catfan · Posted

      We screwed up a couple years ago taking Bryce in the first place.  Nobody held a gun to our head to jump from #9 to #1.  Most people who keep up with draft news knew this 2024 QB class was loaded and we should have waited, which I advocated. It was a dumb move and I knew it.  Now we have to roll with Bryce another year.  That's fine, because this 2025 class isn't that great.  I like Ewers, but not super high on him.  If Bryce shows improvement, which I think he will, that should get him at least one more season before we have to decide on if he's the permanent answer or not.  I've said before, the 2026 draft is the next window for a franchise QB if Bryce isn't the answer. Bryce gets this year and next at a minimum.
