PFF: Cam rated higher than Jimmy G and Brady. Because our receivers can't catch a cold.

Top offensive grades:

G Trai Turner, 79.2

FB Mike Tolbert, 79.0

QB Joe Webb, 78.7

TE Marcus Lucas, 77.5

QB Cam Newton 77.3

This was a rough game for Newton, who was off-target early and ended with two interceptions, although neither throw was egregious. But across 46 snaps, there was more positive about his play than negative, which unfortunately isn’t reflected in box score due to the play of his receivers. Carolina’s pass-catchers dropped five of Newton’s passes (eight for the game), including multiple drops from Ted Ginn Jr. All five of those plays would have resulted in either a first down or touchdown.

And the teammate Cam is, he took it upon himself post-game when questioned by the media.

Even after his coaches benched him in the middle of a game and then put him back in.  I've never been more shocked by Rivera and Shula than last night.  That was a farce.  If you're gonna pull him, pull him.  If you're not satisfied with his performance, bench him.  There's no need to attempt to embarrass him.

If I remember right and thats a big "IF".. I think Cam initially sucks in preseason!! Nothing too worry about..He seemed pretty amped which can make him off for a bit.. But then it doesn't help the receiver drops a 5 - 10 yard pass that is in their hands especially after Cam ran his ass off from getting a sack..to only have the receiver have stone hands..goes both ways.. receivers need to help..no worries on Cam here

Ron said it was planned, they put in Daryl Williams in at LT and CAP at RB, they wanted to make sure Cam wouldn't get blown up after those changes.

Gettleman likes him some dropped balls. As long as the receivers dropping those balls are big freaks of nature who typically have a short career.

I have never put anyone on ignore here. But dammit, your shtick is just really getting old. So welcome to the ignore list. Don't bother to reply because I will not be able to read it.

Well that's good to hear.

Cuz looking at it without the inside knowledge made me question their goddam sanity.

Two things to take away from the game last night.  

1. The Patriots secondary is better than people give them credit for.

2. Our offense was very watered down from what we will do in the regular season. (Ex: Design runs for Cam near the goaline, Stew running the ball, more read option, Greg Olsen's presence, etc)

    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight 
    • There's a reason Greg Maddux was never a flamethrower but still one of the most feared pitchers of all time, because accuracy beats velocity far more often then vice versa. Once you exceed a certain minimum capability, you can thrive with extreme traits elsewhere, its not strictly about power in any sport but powerlifting.
