Will the NFL give a super bowl to an aging Cam Newton?

Many years from now when Cam is past his prime and a couple years away from retirement, having broken tons of NFL records and a consistent track record of being a good human on the field and off the field, could you see the NFL helping Cam add a SB to his resume?  They did it for Peyton.

 

*before you give me the NFL doesn’t give Super Bowls away argument, they have tons of control over teams and game flow.  From officiating calls, to scheduling, there are both small and major ways the NFL can give teams small nudges towards winning games.

 

Thoughts?

Cam called Roger G last week and had a long conversation with him. Roger agreed that he will give the team a playoff spot next year as part of a larger agreement they made with Jerry Richardson that we would have winning seasons in odd years. Other than a playoff appearance, that is all he promised to give the aging Cam Newton unless we cut Reid. 

Take this info if you choose but it is very real. My insider gave me this information last week after I paid him with an authentic pair of Daryl Worley game used and signed set of gloves. He knew he had to deliver after I gave up something so valuable.

Think this fits Elway, more so than Peyton.

NFL Entertainment. Nobody promised it would be fair. Nobody said they wouldn't meddle in the outcome of games.

It's funny how everybody will blame Ron or Cam when games such as the 49ers at BofA was obviously fixed.

They helped the 49ers into the much anticipated game with Seattle that year so the question IS valid.

      Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.

      They will still be a playoff team but they aren't contenders anymore IMO. They won't be able to spend like they have when they went to a SB and proved he couldn't carry a win at that level with a really good team around him. Now he is going to have to do it with less to spend around him. They just locked in to being a playoff bound team that's going to be a known speed bump for whoever will represent the NFC in the SB.

      Hmm. I think he'll live up to it. Last year, about half of his team was on IR it seems, at one time or another. Year before, Super Bowl appearance. Year before that, playoff run after being third on the depth chart and being pressed into service. Is he one of the greatest in the game right now? Nope. No chance of that. Is he in the top 10 going into next season? Pretty good chance of that.  Would 20 or more teams in this league love to have the guy as their starting QB. Most likely so. He's a good QB who can implement his coach's game plan to a T and has both the confidence of and confidence in his teammates. That'll take you a long way in this league if you've got the right cast around you, and he does.
