NFL.com now says "completion percentage isn't everything" after Cam's 71% game.

This is pretty much parody at this point. The national media cannot make up its mind.

Only thing consistent is trying to fit whatever narrative they can to make sure Cam Newton never gets credit for anything.

Sunday's loss was a reminder that completion percentage isn't everything. Newton connected on 71.1 percent of his passes, but the inefficiently is concerning for the Panthers offense moving forward. 

This is absolute parody right now.

Oh and PFF says Cam Newton sucks. They ignore CJ Anderson's bumped interception as well because they have to fit a narrative. They also ignore the possibility of route miscommunications and drops and strangle themselves finding a way to say Cam was bad.

It was not a great day for Cam Newton, who earned his bad interception luck with two dropped interceptions coming as a result of careless throws. That inaccuracy and decision-making helped put the Panthers in comeback mode, and while he valiantly tried to rally, it was too little too late ultimately.

Like seriously this is peak PFF pathetic analysis.

They were watching a completely different game. We were in comeback mode because the defense allowed 8 yards per play and had drive killing drops.

I was very happy with cam cmc and Wright on offense. Very displeased with the Defense.

i don't care that much when the media does it but every dipshit armchair football expert on the internet's favorite talking point/hot take is "cam isn't that good i mean look at his completion percentage"

i assume we'll be going full circle back to the 2011/2012 "stats don't matter only wins and rings" angle if he keeps it up

    • I can't tell you what other's expect from him before they will start believing in him. I think for some, they will never be able to overcome his size. I think that is the fundemental problem for them which means they will never be happy with him behind center. For others, it seems he will have to be in the top 10% in pretty much every catagory and do that all seaon for them to start believing in him. Not everyone of course. There are people on this board that, while have doubts, can still acknowledge his good plays and are willing to give him another season. Those folks I would assume just want consistency - and wins. I could be off on all the above but that's kind of how I see it. And while you didn't ask, I will say I'm glad they picked up his 5th year option. He earned it. I do not think he should be signed to a long term contract yet. I do think he will develope in a franchise QB and will get the Panthers back into the playoffs and win them but I know I could be wrong. Next year will be the big test. If the offense continues to improve and they get back to the playoffs because of the offense, it will be time to sign him long term. If it's a repeat of this year, then it's time to look elsewhere for a QB. Like I said though, I believe he can be the guy so would be surprised if he doesn't make it.   
    • Well since I am so biased, why don’t you tell us what he has to do to earn the trust of everyone that doubts him? If you say he has already done it, we really will never agree.   
    • Also, do you think it a bit odd that the media has ignored it? Maybe they haven’t. But I am not aware of it being written or talked about.
