Stephen A Smith: Cam Newton will be better than Andrew Luck this season.

The Panthers in general are not going to get much respect until they start stringing together winning seasons. Inconsistency with our franchise is well beyond Cam Newton .

Remember when we were winning in 2015 and people kept making excuses as why we were winning? And these same nfl fans were so quick to jump up and down and proclaim how much we suck in 2016? Yeah some of that is Cam haters but alot of it is they don't respect a franchise thats known for its inconsistency and 7-9 or 6-10 seasons

Lol, excuses excuses excuses...

Cam came into the tougher division and talent deprived team but this moron had the audacity to pull "well, if they switched teams" angle. Luck is not a precision passer and has suspect decision-making. Say what you want about Cam, but he won't throw for 4 interceptions in back to back games. He's overcompensated for his teammates too.

What would luck do with the 2015 team? One could wonder..

And this is why I didn't click on the video. They're so damn predictable and boring. Hell, I've been critical of Cam at times too but I believe he's going to light it up this year. He just needs to let those playmakers do a little more of the work.

Probably go 6-10 or worse. Yes the defense bailed us out a few games but Luck isn't running or extending plays like Cam did that year.
Not saying you do but a lot of the talking heads fail to mention the Colts made sure he had weapons to throw to. If the O-line excuse doesn't work for us why does he get a pass?

Anybody can look these stats up, but here ya go:

(and yes I realize Cam has been in the league 1 year longer and ppl still want to knock Cam for his completion %)

I mean when you consider the stats and the fact that Cam has achieved so much more with less up to this point in their careers.....I don't really see how it's even very close. 

Oh well, it's ESPN so who cares and as has already been mentioned; we won't get respect (the team as a whole or Cam) until we can win consistently.

    • I'll be honest.  I'm not sure I want to see any those guys returning right now given what others are presently doing.... minus Coker.  Hubbard returning likely messes the run game up (I mean, it's going to come down regardless but he still), Tremble and Evans actually are doing well, Corbett seems to make us worse up front, and the D has made some strides.  I'd like to just keep that whole lot on the shelf this week.  
    • I don't think people know that Icky is still only 25 years old. Panthers signed UDFAs older this year and drafted DJ Johnson. Heres a fact, a deep fact.... Its easier(much) to find a good-great QB than good-great LT. Another fact there's only 12-15 true LTs and the others are larping as LT.  SO....(I'm not a fan btw)......you nearly must resign him at all cost even with him being around the 12th best at times. Its the hardest spot to fill and he's still awful young with 4 years as a pro. Carolina already got 4 years of "cheap" service as well, that's invested time and effort.  The fan-side of me hopes he signs some top 5 at best top 3 big money deal. Just the cap keeps growing and LTs, young LT with experience are rrrrrrare and unique. Tag him if needed and tag him again, then trade him. I think he enjoys being/living in NC.  I hope he's stays on a team friendly deal, but those are soooo rare these days.  Only two options- pay him whatever, even if it's top $$$$$(uggggghhhh..) or tag him for 2027 and keep trying to pay. Worst outcome is trading him for couple 1s, 3s, and 5th maybe a player too. 
    • I always loved DJ Moore.  I don't see him wanting to comeback here.  He seems to be tired of inconsistent QB play and you finally see that bubbling over in Chicago.  or maybe he just doesn't like the people.  He actually seemed fine with Fields.....and lobbied for them not to draft Caleb.  So maybe it's just a Caleb issue (and I think Caleb might have tons of baggage/issues that rub folks wrong)
