This is a foolish debate to still be having. Yes I am as worried as anybody else about Cams injuries. But if your wrong on this you lose one of the most gifted and unique talents not just the Panthers but the NFL has ever seen. We have been spoiled by years of Cam to think hey we will just find another one next year or Allen is a franchise qb. These guys are extremely hard to find.

A guy who can ar his best not be just top 10 but the best qb in the league? Are you kidding me?? I know it's a risk but I say like he said let him write his check.. I can stomach the potential loss of guaranteed money at the quarterback position vs say what we wasted on Matt Khalil and DeAngelo William's and Jonathan Stewart and add in Jake. We have made plenty of bad signing in the past that look like no brainers now.

This is not one of them. None of those guys were MVP face of the franchise among the best to ever play the game. This guy is.. sign the MFin contract...

Yeah, it was a different story when the Chargers let Brees walk. They already had Philip Rivers waiting in the wings. They'd spent the #4 overall pick on him and he'd been in the organization for two seasons and they pretty much knew he was going to be really good given the opportunity.  Same type of story with the Packers and Favre/Rodgers. Similar story with the Colts and Manning/Luck. Ditto for the Niners and Montana/Young.

We'd be parting ways with Cam with no known successor and we'll be holding likely a borderline top 10 draft pick. Not great.  That's a recipe for some flailing years to come. The teams that make the seamless transitions generally find the next guy before parting ways with the old guard.

No one is irreplaceable.  But Cam has been a good qb for us, and anyone who thinks we will be able to draft a QB like Tua or Burrows and that qb will automatically be as good as Cam has another thing coming.  

I think most of this ganbase is still living in 2015. Cam lost 30 pounds of muscle and cant stay healthy. He cant run the ball effectlively anymore and his accuracy issues prevent him from being a successful pocket passer.

I understand peiple ha e an attachment to cam because he was our first superstar franchise qb... but you gi e a contract based on the future, not based on what a player did 3 or 5 years ago. Cam was special because he was a dual threat. Now that he cant run he is average at best and cant stay healthy. The team is rebuilding. It is time to move on. You guys can poo me all yoi want, but i have seen this show before. He is gone.

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      I'm probably one of those posters, but I make those posts because there are too many things going on that don't make sense. For instance, how does a RB that does something that hasn't been done in 14 years immediately get reverted back to 2nd string, and it takes a leadership council to make him the starter when he's averaging 3x the YPC? Your average fan shouldn't be screaming that for 2 weeks before the coach sees it. And that's one of many.  What you're seeing is frustration that we could be better, that we should be better, if our owner, FO, and coaches could do things that are so painfully obvious to even the most basic fan

      Cowboys. Patriots. Couldn't ask for two bigger villains.

      I think we're all struggling with what things are right now and what they have been. It's like getting ready to have bandages removed after a long period of injury. The healing, the new growth, they aren't going to be pretty, there's going to be some ongoing issues for a while at best and there's every chance that we're going to have to go back into the bandage situation all over again. And that sucks. But it's also a place where maybe, just maybe, the recovery is going to finally start happening. The bad days will be getting behind us.  It's not going to happen this year, but I believe from what I see that this year is showing that improvement. We focus on the QB because that's what all the pundits focus on, because it's the flashiest and most heralded position on the field. No one wants to put out a tweet about how a center is holding down their job and anchoring a line. They rarely celebrate that blocking tight end or special teams gunner. That fourth CB on the depth chart? Not a mention. And yet, those guys are the kind that we've been building here, we're building the lunch pail guys AND finding some future stars.  Is Bryce one of them? Might be a cornerstone of the team in the future as the second QB, might somehow just show out to end the season. Might flame out like many expect. But if that uncertainty is all we concentrate on, we're just going to miserably look at this team and maybe miss out on some solid green shoots that are finally beginning to poke through into the sunlight.
