Two really quick questions that you need to be honest about.

1. If you are the Carolina Panthers do you give Cam Newton an extension?

Absolutely not

2. If you are Cam Newton, do you step foot on a field under a 1 year contract?

Could understand his position, but he is under contract.  I love Cam and want him to be here, but I also don't want another Josh Norman situation.  I guess if he holds out, then maybe a trade is inevitable, but I hope it doesn't get to that point.

1. Currently, easy No

 

2. Thats tough.

Its easy to say no.  But its not out of the question that he may need that 1 year to prove to teams for the next contract.

Whats to say teams arent going to offer him a 1-2 year deal even if we release him because of what he's shown the last 3 years, with his age and injuries. 

 If im a team, im sure as he11 not investing more than 1-2 year prove it deal on current Cam.

1. Not yet

2. He has no leverage to do anything else, so that question is moot. What team is going to give us what we would ask for a trade demand *and* extend Cam to a Jared Goff-level extension?

I sure hope there is a way to trade Cam and get something for him rather than just releasing him.  

I could see the Bears going hard after Cam or perhaps the Dolphins just to put fans in the seats.  Desperate teams will do desperate things and if I'm the Bears, I'm on the phone with Carolina now.

1. No. You have to see what he's got and if he can stay healthy in 2020.

2. I'm going to say yes. I have no idea what Cam is thinking, but he seems to truly love the game of football. I think he wants to get back on the field, and he needs to get back on the field and light up defenses.

His game relies heavily on his ability to run.  He is NOT a pocket passer.  He's not Drew Brees nor Tom Brady.  He turns 31 in May and his body is falling apart and he's going to want $40/yr just like Dak Prescott wants.  These players have egos and are not going to settle for a lesser contract.

There's NO WAY you extend him after his contract is up.  Not sure about question #2 but I'm sure about question #1.

Many here can’t put logic in front of their emotions. It sucks to lose your favorite player and I get that for so many fans here. He’s been my favorite (along with Luke) for years now. But it certainly seems like parting ways is the only logical outcome as of today. Things may change come April. But right now, this era seems to have run its course

      I really like the way this team is trending. Morgan and Canales rookie campaign saw them do some questionable picks but, they also did some really good things. Especially addressing the offensive line.  Young had such a disastrous rookie season where his confidence was nowhere to be seen.  You can attribute part of this to a terrible offensive line.  So, we focused on the O-line.   We then brought in several defensive free agents that were supposed to compliment Brown.  Once Brown went down those players could not hold the line.  2025 we focused on defense in Free Agency and brought in several good players.  We then added more talent in the draft.  I think we have competition in several areas where Vets are not guaranteed to be starters.  Our offensive line is pretty set with some good backups.  Our defensive line is going to be a war for who comes out to be the starters.  All in All, we are leaps and bounds much better than 2023 roster.  Canales made some rookie head coach mistakes but grew as the season progressed.  He got our QB, who was starting to look like a huge bust, playing with confidence and poise.  Now it appears Young is moving upwards.  Maybe he is a QB whisperer.  After Young started to play better our offense was fun to watch.  Morgan knows football and knows what he wants in his players.  It appears to me that not only are these players he's drafted really good and got great value for them, but they are also high motor, intense players. Our defense, in the past, was always the key to our success.  I think Morgan is building a great defense. I know it is too soon to tell but I believe we may have a tandem that will be around a long time.  It would be nice to see Morgan/Canales be in the same class as Lynch/Shanahan and Beane/McDermott.   I know many Huddlers will overreact, but I truly believe we have a tandem that will be around a long time. TIME WILL TELL. Go Panthers
