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?

      Another layer to that is Ive seen Seattle has been in the market for CB help this off-season.   Michael had a higher PFF grade than Horn who got 15 games this season. He wants to be here too, that's a huge bonus for any 5 win team that had awful pass rush.  The 7th rounder Michael Barrett didn't last long on Seattle, he was cut before the season I think and ended up on browns PS. He's already been on 5.......5 teams within one year.......

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      By Basbear · Posted

      You have gave the board some recent gold via posting. Heres my poor attempt at the truthful play-by-play of the time during post- I pulled out the old laptop to do my shitposting and check on websites. Open the huddle and see this new thread. Open thread and read CRAs post, {inner thinking, oooOOooo this is my lane and I got this}. Make sure not to scroll even to the 2nd post. 23% of current neurons still firing start up and two names appear- Captain and Josh....... about another 43 seconds past "O GOD" it's July 4th weekend and I got medicine to pick up. (If the laptop didn't give away my aging, the meds should...) I need to split, think long panther careers and the hint-  Ryan Kalil was a late 2nd and Pro bowls(even all-pros too) he's got to be OLman and Mikie Minter is among the all-time Panthers career leaders. Drop my post. Scramble to get keys, wallet, and phone. Check my phone- its 17% battery.....fug I now have to raw dog the pickup line and put the phone on charge.... Flip flops, sweat ringed filled hat, and shades acquired. Get in my pos rav4 and think about not running the A/C. Pull out the drive way and reach the 1st stop light, A/C is wide open. I check my shirt to see if there's any new stains on my house shirt, bush off the Bojangles salt that I see.... Neurons re-fire and focus on the comments CRA made that no one would get this....... Dang IT, that means it isn't Ryan Kalil or Mike Minter! CVS is close, but I know its impossible I get back withing 10 minutes to change my post and my phone is on the charger. {Think you monkey, at one point you were a draft nerd}. Reach the CVS line, by some grace its not 5 cars deep during 5 o'clock traffic hell. Im second in line after the car in front of me both turn in, they have to go back and forth to line up while Im a pro for that geometry. Neurons finally reach peak performance as Ive re-thought draft classes. Think obscure and unknown 7th rounders with long careers. Some Sunday/Monday night member berry fell out of my Melon, Will montgomery during the players intros for washington. I thought he out of the league and was shocked to see him still playing around the 2015 years. I do a goggle background check and that refreshed memory. Pick up the meds and enjoy the sweet smelling cool CVS air. Driving back and check in on one of the local bums at the big stop light, wow he's got a new fancy rug. Think about all the old food I got and need to start giving it away and rethink it. Reach home and post a follow up and I know Minter is wrong too, I check the draft history and see Robert Mcclain. Too late, but that would have been my guess....open CRAs link and get "upset" at the DBs name.
