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 here Sunday...

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.

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
