Over 100 avg rating for the first in his career. You can argue he is having a better season so far than 2015.  Half way through 2015 his numbers were not this impressive. It was the amazing second half of the season that propelled him to MVP status.  If he continues to get better, he may not get MVP but he will have his best season, and Panthers will be primed for a return to the SB.

What I like best about 2018 CN1 is that the success he's having now is reproduce-able and sustainable.  It's not a bunch of low percentage deep shots, it's high percentage short and intermediate stuff that the players around him turn into gold.  Yes, he's still running the ball, but he's a lot smarter about it now.

This CN1 has a chance for a longer career than 2015, and that should have Panthers fans really excited.

Its not over yet. He really got hot the second half of 2015 like always-- hes getting hotter now.

Its very probable that like 2015, Cam starts having 4-5 touchdown games and gets into that 45-50 touchdown bracket like 2015 or better.

He needs to be in the 2018 MVP discussion when that happens.

The biggest difference between 2015 and 2018 is we now have players that can bail Cam out of a bad situation instead of the other way around, like CMC's miracle touchdown grab last week and DJ's dribble bobble off a bad throw. Cam's always had to bail out the offense, and now we have players like Samuel, DJ Moore, and CMC that can work magic. Norv and the skill positions have taken so much pressure off of Cam, and now he has the scheme and protection he needs. I don't see him being in the MVP discussion unless we go undefeated the rest of the season, however.

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
