Large, mobile quarterbacks do not last in the NFL. Let's just start right there with that little bit of knowledge. Ben Roethlisberger is nearing the end of his career at an early age, and he is probably the best example of big quarterbacks with durability. What does that tell you?

Although Cam Newton is only 27 years old, Jason Smith believes that we are much closer to the end of his career than we are to the start of it. In three years Cam Newton will be done as a quarterback in this league.

While I want to flip and out call this stupid and rant for days there is some truth to this if the team keeps letting Cam get beat to hell pretending to be a battering ram with the entire offense strapped to it's back. A human can only take so much punishment before they breakdown and while Cam is more super than most he is still just a man.

The Panthers have done a terrible job surrounding him with talent and the NFL referees have done a terrible job of protecting him as a QB and the Panthers are complicit in that because they just sit back and accept it as an organization. Could you imagine the hell that a Robert Craft or Jerry Jones would be raising if their star QB's head was treated like a piñata every Sunday with nary a flag in sight?

      TNF: Rams/Seahawks

      I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
