After having played just 2 games in 21 months by the time the 2020 season starts, Cam will be rested and healthy. His whole body will have recovered to an extent it hasn't been in a LONG time because of all the hits he didn't absorb this year. He'll do his usual thing of playing poorly to start the season (especially since I can promise you he won't play next year's preseason) and will go on to have the best season he's had since 2015 by far.

Don't let the pessimists get you down today. This move is best for Cam and the future of the Carolina Panthers.

Anything's possible, but this is not a scenario I would bet money on.

Why? 

I truly don't get why people are jumping off cliffs today. His shoulder will be 100% next year. We have no indication that his foot won't be 100% either. So...what's the problem here? Cam will just be 31 next year, that's middle-age for quarterbacks. A healthy Cam Newton in 2020 will obviously be our best option at QB, much better than any QB we could have at the 16th pick or whatever.

Smarter to keep a recovered cam than let another team reap the benefits.
 

the benefits in keeping cam outweigh the Benefits in releasing or trading him. 
 

kyle Allen still has to ball out the remainder of this year, and have some playoff success for the scale to tip heavily in cam not being here next year.

There's money involved now.  Ignore the talk about the cap savings and think about the security aspect both the team and Cam will be looking for.

I sure hope so. But it's not like he was off vacationing in Hawaii for 21 months. He's been rehabbing injuries to his throwing shoulder (for the second time) and his foot. Cam is a mobile quarterback with messy throwing mechanics which puts a lot of strain on his shoulder. A full recovery doesn't seem likely tbh.

It sucks, but it's true.

His shoulder was supposed to be 100% this year.

Beyond that, of the people with access to the team, there's a lot more pessimism than optimism on that front.

If Cam is healthy next year, I expect he'll play fantastic. And that will lead to a gigantic payday, no?

IF we were looking at the #1 pick, I might understand this speculation. But we're 5-3 and won't sniff Tua, so I don't see any situation where we end up with a better QB in 2020 than Cam.

His shoulder is no longer the issue though right? It's his foot. Do we think that because Cam's last big injury took a lot longer to heal than they thought that this one will too?

      In addition to Evero there's one large change that likely should happen.

      By Saca312 · Posted

      It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.

      CBS Sports brief discussion about questionable Canales decision making

      By TylerDurden · Posted

      Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
