I love Cam but damn people act like he is the only person that will EVER play quarterback for the Carolina Panthers.

It’s not that. It’s just so hard to find a game changing qb. The league has changed. You absolutely need an elite qb to win the super bowl. It is very possible we get stuck in qb purgatory for a decade.

I read some stat, can remember where, but it listed every super bowl winning coach and team.  Outside the Pats, most teams win a super bowl when a new coach comes within 5 years.  If they don't win a super bowl within 5 years of a new coach, chances are they won't.  Again, this excluded the Pats.  I say the no, the true panther way, they get close but come up short again.

I see your point, but I would not call Nick Foles an elite QB. For a few seasons, he was exactly what the Eagles needed to fit with the other pieces they had. We should be able to find a Nick Foles, or maybe we get lucky and get a Mahommes (was the 10th pick). You just never know.

Nick Foles was absolutely elite in the playoffs and the few games before. that is really an anomaly for a backup to come in and do that but he did.

Hmmmmm.   I will give that some thought.  The only SB that I can think of, won by non elite quarterback,  was Nick Foles.  Eagles backup quarterback win.

Btw, that win tells me that you need to have the right quarterback in the right circumstances.   Look what happened to Jacksonville this season.

    • Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once. 
    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
