Maybe the most significant because until then he was just looked at as a QB like Stafford who could put up great performances but never win the big games. Him outdueling Brady in primetime changed a lot of narratives.

unpopluar opinion but i think his best performance ever was the wild card game at NOLA. Playing a team that kicked our ass twice already, with janitors at receiver and an injured Funchess and Olsen and Matt Kalil protecting him and he thoroughly outplayed Brees in a stadium where they had never lost a playoff game. He did everything possible to win that game and then Funchess half assed the game winning touchdown. Unforgivable

and then started the following season with MVP stats prior to injury. he was entering the prime of his career. people that say he's done are such morons

Lord have mercy, that game was fun.

Watching Brady go apesh-t at the end was the perfect capper.

Man, what was the name of that safety that made the final pick? Pretty sure he never played for us again after that season.

Its in the OP. I thought he was gonna be good. He played for us in 2014 but was cut after that. He never made it to another NFL team after getting cut.

What’s really funny is Lamar Jackson on Monday had an almost identical scramble behind the LoS as Cam did on that play. The difference was, Lamar couldn’t get any yards, had to throw the ball away (still impressive to avoid the sack). None of these young QBs people are harping on are anywhere near the threat Cam was when 100% healthy. If Cam never gets back to 100% the league will have lost an extraordinary talent and player.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      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.
