No he didn't, that was a photoshop someone made with no source. Don't you think it would be all over the internet, espn, and fanbase if Rhule said that? 

People have to make up lies just to make themselves look right.

If Cam was for sure coming back they would have said it from the start. You don't remain silent on your franchise QB if he was a sure thing to return.

Tell me how Cam Newton makes sense on a "long term" rebuilding process?

Im trying to figure out why our fans would even want to keep Cam with this current roster. We have no Oline, that is just asking for another injury.

If you a fan of the Panthers and Cam you would want him to be on a better team. We wasted him the past few years, let the man find success again with another team.

It may have been tongue and cheek but Rhule was asked what he planned to do with Cam. He said win a Superbowl with him 

If I were the coach and constantly asked about him, I would say the same thing.  He is our QB until he isnt.

Our old buddy Schwartz weighs in... 

 

With as many good things Greg has said about Cam over the years, being the best thing that happened to his career and all, I just can’t see Greg wanting to play for the Panthers without Cam at this point in his career. Greg has clearly stated he wants no part of a rebuild. And I have a strong feeling that his decision was tied to if Marty could guarantee Cam would be back next season, which he probably couldn’t.

i woke up this morning thinking the same thing.   greg found out cam's not coming back, either from cam or marty, and decided to dip.   i'm thinking the cam domino has already fallen.   i'm also wondering why the team put out into public that it wants cam to have a full eval on the field in march.  why would the team do that?

It's very premature to talk about Cam's future right now.  In the NFL, you either have a franchise QB, or you're looking for one.  We have a franchise QB right now.  Sure, he's been beat up, but he's also been there.  We also have two young QBs who haven't shown a lot.  Cam can put a franchise on his back and win.  He's done it before.  Is there anyone we can get this season who will improve our QB room?  

I don't believe in the "tank" in the NFL.  Someone around here posted that most of the SB level QBs were drafted outside of the top 10.  There's something to that.  

You have to give Cam a chance because he makes you competitive, which helps keep people in the stands.

To let Cam know that if he isn't able to fully throw in March, that they will likely be moving on.  Can't wait for him forever, unfortunately.

When something like that comes out, the first question to ask is, who does this info benefit?  In this instance, it's a warning to Panthers fans of what is likely to happen next.

You can not believe in "tank" all you want, and they won't say that's what they are doing.....but it's what they are doing.  Don't expect many free agents brought in, don't expect nearly as many starters over the age of 28 either.

Time to embrace it, we are starting over.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
