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.

      Statistical reasons to Scratch Ickey from returning as a LT--Even in 2027

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      Sound write-up MHS, as always.  Agree that the smart move that forward thinking franchises make would be drafting a tackle early, if not for sure in R1, depending on who's there. Based on early predictions we're choosing between Fano and Proctor. No brainer here...Fano all day. Proctor does not move the needle for me. In my mind, Icky has less future here than Brooks does. I love Icky, but he has been average as a top-10 pick, one good year where you saw the potential...and that was this year. He's built like a RT and his strengths are there, but he's always played left. I also feel like part of what has held him back from being elite, was his work ethic. He was known for it coming out, but feel like he fell right at home in Carolina and maybe didn't push himself as hard as he needed to. Throw in a major crucial injury that will take time to recover and a historical low return rate to current form, and the outlook is not great. Fano can play both sides and we need to also plan for Moton's departure. Either way, delaying drafting a tackle early this year will hurt us down the line. Our current OL is overpriced and needs to start adding draftees to start balancing out the inevitable changes coming in the next 2-3 years.  As others have said, maybe Icky can replace Hunt or Lewis in a couple years when he's fully recovered....IDK. Also not a guarantee, but then you have to figure out his contract and it becomes even more clouded.

      It's past time to just eliminate it in terms of an event. Just do the voting, name the roster, and move on. When you get down to 6th and 7th alternates it's just absurd. It doesn't mean anything.
