Is Cam Newton Washed?

Yeah well you aren't special or more deserving of a winning franchise any more than anyone else. Truthfully with how fickle you and others are being you deserve losing and more losing.

Also. Seeing as how you are apparently a DWill fan, you should be used to that. You and him seem eerily similar in personality.

Cam didn't look bad. I'm not sure why people are saying that. He missed some throws, but not that many. Only two really stand out to me -- the interception and the missed deep ball to Samuel, but we also shouldn't have needed a deep ball there if we don't run a QB keeper on first down for no gain. 

That drive was a bummer. Made it a 3-point game and then did nothing. That's where you dink-and-dunk to make sure we get in FG range to tie.

I felt like we've definitely won games playing worse than we did yesterday. We just couldn't win that one without being close to perfect.

I created my name about 12 years ago on this forum and just never used it. I did like him when he played for us, but he's a douche now. I also think you're a pretty big moron to assume to know anything about my personality from a few dozen posts in an internet forum.  I'll ignore that complete stupidity, however, and focus on our conversation about the game.

And who said I was "special or more deserving"...? I just want to see changes when I don't think my team has the right pieces in place.  I think any fan of any team on the planet would feel the same way.  Your statement doesn't even make sense.

Not bashing Cam only read the first couple posts in this thread. Where is his fire? He used to be full of energy. Now he acts like he hates himself and his job. 

 

And wtf. If the communication goes out does the QB have no authority at all to call a simple play and move the ball? Why would he shut down and take a penalty? Just execute something- quick pass, run up the gut. Anything 

[Silent Majority]

The play calling was f*cking pedestrian. The "certain types" love to give it to Cam with both barrels but have NOTHING to say about Norv (I have my own opinions as to why). The plays aren't designed to get guys open. They have to win 1 on 1s every time. When they do Cam has to be money. He missed a few. Those plays are glaring because the WRs getting seperation for an easy pitch and catch is rare. So instead of people calling out the shitty RR/Norv game plan they are more than willing to bitch about those misses. Create more opportunities so Cam and the offense can get into a groove. Mcvay adjusted to the flow of the game. Uptempos, hurry ups, stayed with what was working, etc. RR/Norv are dinosaurs. The play calling was some 90s dallas cowboys bs.

I agree with this one. Cam should have just called a play. Was an opportunity to run his favorite play.

Yeah I agree. Cam missed some throws and that's definitely on him. Offensive coaching on this team is questionable but Rivera as a head coach is straight garbage. He routinely gets outcoached
