Panthers having DA do the quarterback interview this week. That settles it. 

 

Cam still being in the concussion protocol means he isn't allowed to do a press conference by NFL rules. He clears protocol tomorrow and he still starts.

to be quite honest, I think Cam is healthy, but given the hits he took against Denver and the NFLPA's probe into the Panthers medical staff on how they handled the concussion protocol has put a lot of pressure on our front office. I think sitting him will show the entire NFL the Panthers have Cams best interests at heart. 

They won't sit Cam with a 1-3 record against a divisional opponent just to prove something to the league.

I think part of the Panthers showing that they have Cam's best interest at heart might be the head fugging coach defend his damn QB no matter what instead of telling the whole damn world that he would have "taken a shot" himself.

I guess the Loyal Order and Fraternity of Linebackers is more near and dear to Rivera's heart than his damn QB that sacrifices his body in an attempt to win like no other QB in the league.  

I guess, in Rivera's mind, said QB doesn't deserve his benefit of the doubt.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
