Ron Rivera: “Cam is the Starter, but right now we are going to depend on Kyle going forward”

The “dressing funny” line was dumb on RR’s part. Taking a cheap shot at your QB1 (for now) won’t endear you to him, especially when he’s chiefly responsible for your success, Ron. Cam may have looked and felt disinterested in playing for RR before, but the chances of him busting his ass for the Panthers now seems highly unlikely. Well done, Ron, if your plan was to alienate Cam. You’ve likely accomplished that with your attempt at humor.

That would be pretty pitiful if that comment made him feel that way. Have some respect for Cam, jeez. You portray him so poorly.

he must be one of those who makes cam playing bad about race and not the fact that he has played lack luster so far this year.

There was once a time when a lot of Huddlers loved Gantt, and used to esteem his journalism. I used to tell them he was full of poo. Breaking a story doesn't mean good journalism.

When was the last time Cam had a 4 TD game?

4 TD's in his last 6 games combined.

Last year he had two (2) 3-TD games, nine (9) 2-TD games, and three (3) 0-TD games. 

His last 4-TD game was week-14 of 2017 against the Packers.  He had two (2) 4-TD games that year, the other one was week-10 against the Dolphins.

Here’s Jim Miller. He played in the NFL for over a decade. He’s the host of one of the biggest shows in the country, and they do some of the best analysis in the business. Here is what he had to say about Cam tonight. I would follow his lead. Don’t make this more complicated than it is. Or, tie yourself in knots over it and knock yourself out. Either way, it’s highly likely nobody in that locker room is worked up. Including Cam.

Its been confirmed that Kyle Allen wears cargo shorts, I doubt Rivera needs worry too much about that changing.  I wouldn't mind seeing him wear one of Cam's hats with those shorts though.

If I was Allen, I would conspire with Cam to don a Newton-esque get-up postgame to fug with the media and Ron.

Lol it’s a fuging team sport now? Sure as poo didn’t sound like it when Cam was starting; unless we won.

The OL is ass still (Little is an upgrade) and the receivers are okay at best. Defense is still wildly inconsistent. We refuse to use any other running backs.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
