Guess what grade PFF gave Cam?

Seems fair in all honesty.  The entire offense was bad save for a few plays through the first 3 quarters, even though Cam was responsible for pretty much all the offense we were able to eek out.  Then Cam played at like a 99.9% in the fourth.

So if you average Cam being about 65 (slightly above average for 3 quarters) and 100 for the fourth, you basically end up with ~74.

Anyway, I don't have a clue how they do their math but it seems reasonably representative of the overall body of work for Cam yesterday.

In the end, he was unbelievably clutch in the 4th and got the win.  A 100 in my book.

There are QBs throwing 350+ yards and 3+ TDs regularly. Our offense is tepid compared to some of these 2018 stick-moving machines.

I don't think clutch offense and carrying an offense are factored into PFF, which is how you get the grade above. It's not meant to be subjective like you apparently want it to be.

Cam goes 25/39 (64%), 269 yards, 2 TD, 0 INT . . . and rushes 7 times for 49 yards . . . and wins?  On the road?  Against the champs?

I get you don't want subjective, I respect that.  But it should definitely take winning and losing into account.  There's nothing subjective there.  Same with being on the road vs at home.

This is exactly the Cam we - and all the experts - wanted to see for years.  Limited mistakes.  Good completion percentage.

No worries, winning is the key.  He get's an A from me.  We won, solid stats.  Let the trolls quibble over the other 3 quarters.  Coaches finally adjusted, Cam got into a good rhythm.

      Not looking good for TB. Buffalo and Habs fans are the worst so I will be cheering for the meteor.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Arguing about who had what and who did what with more is just going to end in the same charades. If we're going to waste a lot of hot air arguing then make it about something that cannot be denied. What you are seeing with your own two eyes. Cam Newton was a tremendously talented athlete albeit flawed in fundamental aspects. And although he played poorly in and lost a Super Bowl you cannot deny him that more often than not through his prime his teammates knew they could count on him to hold up his end of the bargain usually and be a key driving force for keeping them in games. Giving his defense much needed rest and motivation in wanting to match his grit as a competitor. That aspect is just not there with Bryce Young. Yeah he's dumped on the Falcons in a dome twice but what about his other 44 games? When has the Panthers defense the last three years ever looked at their starting quarterback and thought to themselves "man I'm so glad he's my QB"?

      Rico walking is no big deal. I'll take a healthy 2024 Hubbard over Rico any time and losing Mays is, again, no a big deal.  Young is signed for what, $35M for the next two years? Say he wants $50M but the FO doesn't. If they put the franchise tag on him, that would be around $55? So basically they are getting Young for the next 3 years for an average of $30M per year. Putting the franchise tag on him wouldn't be my first choice but it gives them an option that wouldn't be locking him into a long term, $50M contract. I'm not suggestion they do that. Just that the option will be there should they get to that point. Hunt is on a 5 year deal which is done in 28 so he either restructures or is gone anyway. Moton will be 35 by then and will either be gone or have diminished playing time. Neither of those players has anything to do with getting Young a contract. The O line is way overpaid anyway. Hopefully by the time they are gone, Freeling and Hecht will be developed and Ickey will be healthy. Young was benched his second year and only got his job back because Dalton was injured. Not sure how you can call that entitled. And I would NOT say putting a rookie QB on a team with no receivers, tight ends or O lineman and then being put with a coach who never wanted you and is fired mid season, is a definition of luck. As far as competition, no team is going to bring in competition for a QB picked first overall - especially given the capital that was given up to get him.
