Tre Boston On Cam Newton - "Why does Cam get to have just average lines..."

Tre isn't wrong about this. 

Our offensive lines for the vast bulk of Cam's tenure have been criminally bad

Look at Grier yesterday. He got absolutely rocked and knocked out of the game.

Over the past 2 years alone, our offensive line has gotten Newton, Heinicke, Allen, and now Grier hurt to the point of having to leave the game.

It's embarrassing.

I'm honestly glad Tre is saying this. I dont think he's worried about being back next year

It is the truth. I can't think of any QB in their right mind that would want to play behind this offensive line right now.

Allen and Grier aren't the answer, but they never had a chance behind this atrocity.

Both those guys are better than other backups that have taken snaps this season.

This is why I get so angry with uneducated national media ever question Cam's toughness.

Heinicke, Allen, nor Grier were wussies but they got injured getting hit bc this team couldn't assemble a unit capable of proving not dominance but not even q baseline of protection

Tre has always spoken his mind.  Sometimes to his own detriment.  But can't lie, I appreciate him speaking up on this to continue the momentum to rebuilding the OL first and foremost. 

Based on some of the comments today, really felt like the offense and defense were two different teams at times and didn't support each other.  Or at least players lacking support in decision making (cough Hurney cough). Defensive group chats about playing elsewhere, defensive support of Cam, almost feels like some outright shots at the offense or decision making there & personnel there. Might just be frustration boiling over, but a lot of honest feelings being spoken instead of the usual "we have to get better" blah blah.

    • But that's the point, if the locker room feels that way, then you're going to upset them by still keeping Bryce around and playing him over the Top 10 pick. Again, it goes one of 3 ways... 1. Bryce plays well enough to earn an extension 2. Bryce still sucks and we draft his replacement who starts Week 1 with a new QB as his backup 3. Bryce still sucks, we draft his replacement in the 1st, but they start the season backing up a new vet QB who was brought in to be his mentor. With an OUTSIDE chance at a 4th option where Bryce plays well enough to convince the team to let him play out the 5th year option and then make a decision.  Which I can't see it happening, but there is still a non zero chance of that happening I guess. The only way we draft a QB next year and still have Bryce on the roster, is if we're taking someone in the middle rounds hoping to develop them as a long term backup to Bryce.
    • I hear you. But I am not absolving Legette just because he is from my neck of the woods or anything else.  Tge comment was more about the fans uneven application of blame.  I do agree that there is a noticeable disconnect between him and the QB and that he might do better with a more polished and capable delivery man.  Abd don’t feel that they used XL right, or at least how I expected it to look.  And that could be a function of a reticent WB that shies away from that style of attack. I mean it was either him or Canales that pretty much eliminated downfield from the playbook - even while we see guys running free at times. It Could work if they commit to it.  Whoever isn’t committing. 
    • Lot of passion there.  Look, if Bryce plays down to the level that we feel the need to draft a QB high, you don’t think the locker room might be ready for anything that helps them win?   There are s lot of angles to this that could come into play depending on what happens this year.
