He knew Cam was injured. He didn’t run all week 1 and had a foot injury and was in a boot during pre season. I guess he ignored that. Some rams player said Cam is one read after they beat us. Good for him. Eagles LB who played with cousins in Washington said the same thing about him this week and ended up roasted and got mad getting questions about it after the game. It’s just poo talking and bullshit. Cam showed he couldn’t run week 1 bucs knew it. Cams foot got worse and caused his plant foot and throws to be seriously fuged up. Shitty LT play and ignoring Barrett week 2 caused too much pressure. We dropped the ball on what we were up against in that match up. Bucs lucked out Cams foot was even worse because we still almost beat them.

This is just spinning context to make it seem Cam isn’t respected and Kyle is. fug off with it

I dont believe for a second that any DC would rather face Kyle Allen or a Healthy Cam. Bowles is just adding to a fire in hopes the Panthers do something dumb like bench a healthy Newton and the "Fans" on this board eat it up. 

Two things can be true. 

QB 1 > QB 2 in a vacuum. QB 1 can have a rocket arm, run and do all sorts of stuff QB 2 can’t. 

An offense can function overall better however with QB 2.  

All things equal and healthy.  While Cam can make throws Allen can’t....Allen throws better short to mid range passes.  Much more consistent with those throws.

Too early to tell about Allen.  How about let's take a wait and see approach instead of knee-jerk nomination for the HOF.  Until then, Cam is the started QB till his health and performance shows otherwise.

Cam is 2-1 against Bowles. so all Bowles needs to do is make sure Cam is injured and he has it made

He has at least 2 losses to Bowles as a DC. 1 in AZ and 1 in Tampa.  Think his only win was that playoff game vs AZ

Man, this fanbase is becoming the Falcons fanbase circa 2004-2006. That fanbase had a contingent that pulled for Michael Vick above all else and constantly implied extremely negative things about anyone who spoke critically of his performance. The same is true with the Cam contingent in the current Panthers fanbase. It's tiring reading such drivel.

The fact is this: current discussions do not include 2015 MVP Cam. That Cam threw one of the best deep balls in the NFL (albeit Ted Ginn often dropped those balls). The current discussion involves a Cam Newton who has not shown the ability to unleash an accurate deep ball for two-plus seasons now. I hope Cam can finally come back in 2015 form, but I'm not counting on it. Cam's 100% percent health billing has been promised over the past few offseason, but it has not materialized.

At this point, you have to approach Cam's future with caution. If he can achieve full health, especially in his shoulder, there is no question he is the better QB. If he can't, hard questions, including what to do with a a $20+M contract next year, must be asked. Personally, I could not care less who plays QB in the future, so long as that man gives the Panthers the absolute best chance to win each and every week. 

Two absolutely ridiculous takes circulating on the board right now...

Newton is still 2015 Newton: Afraid not. Maybe he can be 2018 Newton, but sorry guys, he's not actually Superman. Age and injuries tend to take a toll on even the best players.

Allen will never be anything but what he was against the Texans: "Kyle Allen fumbles all the time every game." actually, he's only fumbled once since that game and didn't fumble at all yesterday.

And here's a hint, it's not at all unusual for players to improve with more playing time.

I know this seems like a radical concept, but I've seen it.

it isn’t knee jerk  to say Allen throws better short to midrange balls though.  Cam has never really thrown a good catchable ball IMO.  WRs got to really work hard.  Kinda like Favre.  Cam basically has one speed regardless of the route.

Favre has always been my go to comparison when it comes to Newton.

Taking place right before our eyes.  His on-field composure has improved dramatically in the last 4 games.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      They're examples of denying reality. Here are some others: ,- Bryce is the worst QB in the NFL right now (no he isn't) - Bryce is the worst QB in NFL history (no he's not; that's stupid) - Well then Bryce is at least the the worst QB in the league over the last three years (nope, he's actually improved a lot since year one, which was a turbulent year anyway) - That's not true, he hasn't Improved one but since his rookie year (oh come on) 🙄 - Well, even if he did, we can't win with him (obviously we can) - Yeah but not unless everyone else is damn near perfect (think the game film from our wins this year would back that up?) - Even so, we won those games in spite of him (officially the stupidest argument available) And no, those are made up. You can find those quotes and other equally moronic statements in various threads around the board. I know some folks always need to characterize whatever they're against as the worst thing in existence. It's hyperbole, and it's hypersilly. Likewise, you've got some who are so absolutely emotional about it that even if you think Bryce isn't good enough (which I do) they'll still call you a stan if you don't agree to label him the lousiest passer in existence 🙄 It's just dumb, and it's not realistic. But on the flipside, here are some statements which are; - Bryce is indeed capable of both playing in, and winning, an NFL game. Not on a consistent level though, and consistency is huge. - He is also capable of completing mid-range and even some deep passes; hell, he threw a beauty this past Sunday  - Yes, he has improved over his rookie season and over last year. Arguing against that is disingenuous. - Believe it or not, other players are the roster do make mistakes in games also.  - And lastly, while I know it hurts some people's narrative and arguments, Bryce does indeed deserve credit for the winning games he's played in this season. ... Every single one of those statements is true. And since i acknowledge all that, I must be in favor of keeping him in place then Except I'm not 😕 ... Don't know of anyone who doesn't think he'll get the fifth year option. Not ready to guarantee anything beyond that, though. So bottom line: Yeah, Bryce is fully expected to be our quarterback through next year. If there were a logical, realistic path to acquire a more capable starter and transition Bryce to a backup I'd be elated, but that's a pipe dream. This where we're at  I don't **** it, you don't like it, others don't either. But here We are so let's make the best of it that we can.

      Let's be real. Signing Matt Kalil who was at the time inconsistent at best was always an extremely risky move and largely initiated by the fact he was related to one of our most prominent players Ryan Kalil. Memories get fuzzy the longer time passes I guess. Go watch some old Panthers games with Ted Ginn nearly losing us games. Then watch Cam Newton keep going back to him again and again and again. Then read all the Xavier Legette criticism while making excuses for Bryce being swept by rookie 2nd round pick Tyler Shough. Throwing TMac under the bus is just further proof how deranged the Bryce Young defense force has become. Bryce Young can barely compete in this gutter iteration of the NFC South. Let's see him take this WR core to the playoffs in an NFC South with Drew Brees and Matt Ryan
