Lost in the big news today.. are we suppose to read into this as he expects cam to be back with the team next hear? I'm seeing him say more things that point in that direction than the more overwhelming hes done and out the door-already talking to Chicago nonsense from earlier. Just based off the comments I have heard him say, not based on what the"experts" are hearing.

In terms of Cam long term here the more telling thing to me is actually the "5 years to be consistent winner" comment....

Yea...that's not a thing if you have your franchise QB already in place....that's the writing I see on the wall. With Cam and a competent draft we're back out and winning. But it also does seem to me like Tepper may like the idea of Cam on a cheap 1 year deal to see what it looks like with S. Turner at OC and if it works out then great.

Maybe the reason he retained Hurney is for not making the 36 million dollar mistake? Who knows at this point, but everyone is under the microscope from this point forward.

Here is how I look at it:  If Cam were playing on another team and was released or put on the trading block, and he had not  been healthy for 2 seasons + and has not won a game in in his last 8, would I offer him a $20m per year deal to play for my team?

That would be a big ole bowl of NOPE.

Cam is not a pitcher in baseball.  Wins and losses is not a QB stat.

The Franchise is very doubtful that will be the case.

 

These two things are not mutually exclusive.

Yep.

Best chance we've got of winning is a healthy Cam. They know this. 

The chances of Cam coming back healthy are slim. They know this too.

As to his comments regarding Newton, I'd agree that they're based more in hope than in reality. If I were applying them to real life, I might say I sure hope this lottery ticket I bought gets me a million dollars but I'd better keep working at my job just in case.

On the flipside, the comments about Rome not being built in a day, a new head coach not being a savior and that maybe it takes five years to build a consistent winner all sound like Tepper is prepared for a rough stretch of rebuilding. And no, that likely doesn't include Newton.

it really does suck to think that crappy Bucs game is gonna be the last image we have of him in a Panther uniform, but unfortunately that's probably true.

Precisely where I stand.

Hope is great and all, but it don't win football games.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
