Panthers offense article by Geoff sharwartz. Makes sense

Good article and pretty much agree with all.  A wild horse that looks like Cam Newton needs to run free... let's stop asking him to be Tom Brady and let him do what comes naturally.

I totally agree with this.   The one thing that bothers me is defenders are intentionally creating helmet to helmet contact with Cam.  It started with the Atlanta Game in 2015.   Until the refs start calling this, which they won't because Cam is a RB. From what I have heard the rule is they don't call helmet to helmet for RBs.  Nature of the beast.

So every time Cam runs they go for the head.  They damn sure can't bring him down any other way.

Sounds like even had we fired Shula at the end of last year like everyone wanted, we'd still be in the same spot because Cam has not been able to get reps with the first team.

Question for me is, do you stick with a running Cam for 4 years knowing he'll be broken down by then or do you try to stretch Cam out to 8-10 years not really knowing if he'll ever be a top 10 pocket quarterback?

Basically what I said during the off-season, Panthers are a run first team and TEs are more valuable than WRs. We need to use Samuel , Shepard , & Byrd when we have TEs on the field to stretch defense out on PA ,bootlegs & roll outs .

Stop trying to force feed to oversized WRs

You have to take your chances not running him. As he gets older he'll be more injury prone and things will take longer to heal. Even if you run him and he plays great, one bad hit could kill the entire season. You can't take that kind of chance every game. You have to hope he can change or draft another QB.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
