Cam Newton is the lowest rated QB in the 4th quarter this season

I think this is deceptive.

With no home run deep threat, that's hampered the offense late in games, and that's not going to leave you with a pleasant passer rating. Not to mention Newton is getting gassed toward the 4th because he's leading the team in rushing just about every week.

If he was number #1 best Q4 QBs I’d bet my left nut you wouldn’t be calling it so deceptive.

Can has blame too the amount of excuses you come up with for him all the time doesn’t make sense. Or does it?

Well if he was #1 then that would mean we wouldn't be witnessing the affecting factors I mentioned. Because historically when the offense as a whole steps up, and not just Cam Newton, we win 9 times out of 10.

The level of bitterness you have taken this anti-Newton shtick to isn't even amusing anymore. It hasn't been for several years. It's beyond time to sh*t or get off the pot.

Serious question: do you perceive Newton to have any flaws? If so, what are they? Or is he flawless in your opinion?

Absolutely. His tendency to be spotty in his accuracy can be maddening. His footwork isn't exactly ideal at times either.

Of course the reality is this staff and franchise hasn't been able to maximize his talents instead of relying on them.

For however you might feel about Newton, there is no arguing that we desperately need someone on our offense not named Cam to step up if we want to win a Lombardi trophy.

Hey now, watch out.  How is it possible to appreciate and honestly critique your QB without being labeled a Cam lover?  Not sure why Cam-haters don't realize how easily detectable the hate is versus objective criticism.   I'd rather for Cam to be the worst rated QB in the league and team 12-4....that means we're doing what the team was built for - strong D and powerful running game.   Seems the front office is moving away from power runners and moving towards a NE style dink and dunk with all purpose shifty athletes.  If so, just stick with the game plan, adjust accordingly but don't get deer in head light and waffle then expect Cam to pull out a miracle. 

Honestly, the team is changing identity on offense and not sure if the game plan is solid enough to depend on just yet.  Cam can be inaccurate at times and the dink and dunk is perfect for that and substitute for flaws in the running game but no QB throws a better down field crossing pattern bullet.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
