Because why wouldnt they be... former MVP. Only decline in skill we have that is 100% evident is injury. I dont like or care for a large contingent of our fanbase fells about Newton. If he was just done I dont think so many other franchises would value you him so high. Stay pat until your sure what you have or dont have. 

Not sure I have ever seen a franchise so ready to jettison the be quarterback they have had in franchise history. It is plausible that Jake gets more love and respect than Newton dispite their accomplishments.  I wonder why that is..

Like I said before, nothing less than 3 1st rounders.

Bears, Titans, and Bills I know for sure would go after Cam. All good teams with great defenses where their QB is holding them back. But it would take a king's ransom for me to trade Cam. But everybody has a price.

I'm not saying they do but a large portion of the fanbase wants to.. its evident. And with that it creates mass hysteria and that's why we were talking about this whole ordeal.

So the fans don't run thr franchise. I don't think the Panthers want to get rid of Newton. I think they have shown to be very patient with him in giving him all the time to recover. They will also give him a chance to keep his job. All this talk is just nonsense.

They don't, and neither does "a good portion of the fanbase".

Joe Person addressed the trade question in his latest Athletic article. He gives it even less chance of happening than Freeman does (i.e. zero)

The one caveat that Person did include is this:

I’m expecting to see Newton back on the field for the Panthers at some point in the coming weeks, though I think his long-term future in Carolina is still in doubt.

Jake gets more respect now because he isn't playing.  When he was the starter he got very little love from what I remember.  It comes with the territory of being the starting QB.  

To answer the point of the thread. I doubt they trade him this season, but to say it won't happen is naive. We as fans don't truly know how the coaches and front office feel about the situation.  I do think they will trade him in the off season and mostly due to contract.

I actually think if anything, he retires.

And no, I wouldn't blame him.

People wrongly ripped Andrew Luck for his decision, but realistically speaking, neither he nor Newton should be blamed for taking care of their bodies.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      By SCO96 · Posted

      If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2024 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade.

      Clowney released

      By Waldo · Posted

      Even limited as he was I still don't think they have replaced his production, and not just the sack stats. The games Clowney missed it was very obvious what his value still was. Risky move but whatever. They only had 32 sacks last year and if that drops then it's going to get ugly. I see the improvement in run stopping but not in pass protect in any way.
