They seemed convinced Cam Will Not be a Panther in 2020

Said.  

"He doesnt look happy anymore"

The reoccurring injury that seem to not heal

Said the Panthers will save 20 mil next year without him

 

 

Not just a local guys, even the national guys seem to think Cam is about dome

Can has one bad game (where he still throws for 300 yards and nearly has a game winning drive) and people act like he’s had the Peyton Manning 35 yard, 5 int game.

It’s because some of them hate him. They were so wrong about him predraft that any chance to jump on him they do it immediately.

He still has yet to show that he has touch beyond 15 yards (you know kind of like last year)

Yes he did look alright throwing 5 yard passes to CMC or 10 yard in routes to Samuel.

But you cant do that forever.  In the NFL if you cant put a ball beyind 25 yards on point, teams catch on. And bring everything in shutting down those close hits.  Exactly like the Bucs started to do.  

He hasnt put a good game yet.

 

@Jeremy Igo showed WEEK 1 where Cam had guys open downfield but he wouldnt even attempt 

Teams litterally can leave only 1 safety back and put every single person in the box because Cam has shown he Can NOT hit guys DOWNfield even open in single coverage.  Teams put everyone in the box to shut doen those short routes, the Only routes he has proven he can hit.  And its game over.

It is far too soon to make the determination about his future here on anything other than pure money/cap considerations.

I am very hesitant to draw any conclusions on the on-field product based on the month of September.  The way most NFL teams prepare, it is just phase 2 of the preseason, with wins and losses counting.  Rivera might be right, his inaccuracy could be rust.  We'll see over the course of the next few weeks.

He doesn't look like he is enjoying himself out there, but running a stagnant game plan and struggling against what was on paper the weakest team in the division, at home, is not going to give anyone great pleasure.  The one thing that I do find disturbing in the first five days of the season is the preparation and coaching do not look like they have changed one bit.  They are doing more of the same and expecting different results.

That’s their opinion. Everyone has one but we don’t know what’s going to happen until it does. This is only week 2. Let’s see how the year pans out. Cam has a lot of rust so give him time to catch up to game speed and then we can see what happens. Until then, I’m staying positive and enjoying watching my guys play.

It's tough to take, but I honestly believe if Cam doesn't turn it around, specifically with arm strength questions, I think he will retire just because it will be impossible to play up to his standards. It's sucks and it's a sucky take, but I don't think it's unrealistic.

Look how serious Tom Brady is about the game. It doesn't look fun to him. He looks like a stone cold killer in the 4th quarter. He only looks happy holding up the trophies.

IMHO Cam has lacked that consistent killer mentality. Brady has it. Rodgers has it. Jordan had it. Kobe had it.

He has to look himself in the mirror and tell himself this isn't fun. This isn't a game. You sir are a professional and this is WAR.

We really do need to see what happens in the weeks ahead.

If he rebounds and gets back to his normal self, then we can talk about moving forward.

But if he continues to look like he does now or if it's inconsistent / up and down, then yeah you really do have to question his future here.

If you've stopped believing in the QB then just stop watching. Follow another team. It's that simple.

I Hope he comes back

But right now he has shown nothing to believe.  Heck national writers and some local writers are in the same boat

 

 

Im guessing you just kept on keeping on believing in Jimmy Clausen until Cam took over?

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      fuging Christ dude this isnt hard.  Like at all.  I get you simping for this poo team is your thing but sometimes you have to look at reality.   Even removing his bum knee from the equation, none of this made sense.  He is 31.  He has been paid handsomely for his service here.  He was currently under contract for this season.  Why in the holy fug did anything have to be done 2 weeks before the season started.   The people for this move, in this thread are saying A) He deserved it (this is the nfl it doesnt work like that  B) It frees up cap space (then why in the fug didnt we do this in Feb or C) You logic (We are getting a deal at 53 million guaranteed for the next 3 years.   You realize with this deal we cannot cut or trade his ass for 3 years.  You understand this right?   So in my opinion we should have let this ride into the offseason and go from there, what he is going to threaten to walk, big fuging deal he would be 32 on a chronically bad knee, what other moronic franchise is going to give him 40 million up front?  It wasnt going to happen.   And you are acting like its impossible to replace a 32 year old RT with a bum knee.  Just go and draft someone, move Icky to RT.  There are tons of options instead of extending this dude 2 weeks before the fuging season.  The truth is Morgan and the shitheads in the FO fell for this dudes crying act and got all sentimental and shelled out another ext.  We are a poverty ass franchise that doesnt act professionally

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      By HPPantherzfan · Posted

      5 Im glad football is back but after the embarrassment that was the browns pre season game where our starting D made Sanders look like a serviceable NFL QB, I lost hope again for a successful Panthers campaign this year.  I do hope I’m wrong!
