Cam Newton Respect (Ruiz gets it)

Havent seen this article posted or referenced yet. It's not just another "Cam is best" read. It tells Cam's ascendency story in a way Panther fans will truly appreciate. It's not just that he's good--it's that he's becoming well-rounded. Even though he won't get credit for it by many. But Ruiz sees it, and he has a good idea on how Cam will maintain his competitiveness long-term. Really loved this write-up.

Nice article. I have to think that as Cam dominates again this year that people will start to see him as the amazing QB he is. Sure there will always be the haters but I think Cam can prove how much he is in command of this offense this year. And people will still be baffled and won't have seen it coming.

Lol

I actually like the article linked to this phrase as much as the #1 article that the post is about. Spoiler alert: If you don't like Cam (or anyone for that matter) because of their race...you're a frikkin racist prick!

 “Coordinator Mike Shula will send in a formation and a handful of play calls, and then it’s up to Newton to adjust the alignment of the skill-position players, call for motions and pick the play he thinks has the best chance of success against the defensive look. ‘It’s not much different than what you have seen with Peyton Manning in terms of being out of the shotgun, having to look at defenses and make determinations,’ Rivera says.”

At 27, Newton is already showing the characteristics of the quarterbacks we deify for their minds and total command of an offense."

 

Love it. Just love it.

Love it. Just love it.

The only QBs that really orchestrate their offenses like that are Manning (now retired) Rodgers, Brady. That is next level poo right there. You must have complete control of the offense and really have a good grasp on what the defense is trying to do to even try that.

    • The reset worked with proton.me.. wouldn’t work with my Gmail, Yahoo or Verizon email accounts 
    • Wish they started at 5:30 or 6 at the latest so I can watch it. I have to be in bed by start time.
    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.
