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.

    • You don’t even need 1b because Tepper is the only one foolish enough to wheel that deal.    Player wise? Jake’s elbow. JR and Pep getting sideways, no Carruth, Cam’s shoulder, Luke’s concussions, it would be a long list of stuff. You can take it down to certain plays in games. Fox chasing 2 point conversions in the SB would be on my list. RMJr slipping at the end of that same game was not helpful. 
    • Ultimately this just amounts to heavy revisionist history. I mean you aren't talking to someone that just popped out the womb a week ago. I was here all throughout the predraft process. The overwhelming majority of the fanbase felt like this was a fine situation and the best situation for a rookie QB to go to compared to Houston for example. The hype for Young and our "rockstar" staff was off the charts. No one could dare speak cautious skepticism of his abilities or they would be neg repped into oblivion. Only after he had one of statistical worst rookie seasons of the last 25 years did we get this narrative now that his rookie season actually shouldn't count. Complete malarkey if you ask me.
    • On the field? Since I guess it qualifies as multiple instances it might not count, but have the damn refs throw some flags on illegal hits to Cam's head in SB50. If that doesn't count, 1A. Cotchery caught it 1B. Kasey keeps that kickoff inbounds. Off the field? 1A. Team is sold to anyone but Tepper 1B. We have the patience not to mortgage the franchise on that Bryce trade. Stroudwpuldve been the better pick but he's not worth it either.
