Re-Built in the image of Cam Newton

[(ATL'ien)CamNewton]

.. everything we have done has catered to Cam. Rhule. Brady. Snow. The inexperience. Cam is the most experienced guy in the building now. This team will be built for Cam Newton.

Why did Kuechly retire? Because this team is going to be trying to score 40 points a game. We don't need defense. Kuechly's side of the ball is being de-valued here.

It was a waste to have a team with a defensive philosophy that has Cam Newton as QB. When a team has Cam Newton that team should always be striving to be the best offense in the NFL.

Cam's back, baby!

Sad people ever thought there was a chance. This team is being built just for Cam. Jerry Jeudy in the first.

LOL at this forum .. just LOL at thinking a team would move on from a 30 year old MVP QB .. guys .. QB's play into their 40's LOL

If we keeping Cam im not mad with Jeudy in the 1st. Only if we address the Oline in FA first.

Might as well build a powerhouse offense. Defense will suck without Luke anyway. Use the first year on offense. Next year focus on the defense.

Joe Brady and Cam Newton are going to be something else together.

I can't believe nearly everybody here thought we weren't going to give Cam a chance with Joe Brady lol .. we signed Brady (and Rhule) FOR Cam .. yet we're trading/cutting Cam? LOL

We're going to bring in a bunch of college coaches to run a college-like offense .. and we're going to cut Cam? LOL

We always said Cam would thrive in a college-like offense .. now we bring in a college-like offense and we're getting rid of Cam?

LOL connect the dots.

We don't need defense?

We were pretty good at getting Sacks on defense this year ..

When we force teams into passing situations because we jump ahead with early leads, Sacks will be our best-friend.

Do we even need 11 on offense?  I am thinking maybe 8

Mods, I know we tend to side with the overly zealous Cam leaning folk around here, and that’s fine. But can we please, for the love of Batman, shut down this record in particular?

Yeah right. This place is so anti-Cam it makes me sick.

I feel fairly certain Luke retired due to fear of causing more brain damage. Loading up on elite LBs is insane in 2020. Never again. You build the team around the player people show up to see at BOA which is obviously Cam. O-line, weapons, it's what the fans want. It's what the NFL wants. It's what makes money. You should spend a lesser percentage of money and draft currency on defense.

I honestly think Luke retired because he's putting his brain on the line for a league that doesn't care about his side of the ball anymore.

And in terms of this team specifically .. the Panthers are de-valuing defense now. With the Snow hire and Brady and Rhule.

We want to win with offense now. It's about time.

People like you need to understand that someone being realistic about Cam playing elsewhere during his career isn’t a slight at him or “anti-Cam.”

No, because Cam playing elsewhere when he's 30 years old is asinine. It's completely unrealistic to suggest Cam not being here. Completely unrealistic.

Is it though?

Injury history, O-line status, defense as it stands, and last year of a contract suggest otherwise. Bias works too though. Stick with that.

Agreed. You need pass rushers and coverage guys in today's NFL with a couple of hog mollies in the middle to stuff the run. LBs seem to be going the way of the FB. The modern NFL LB has more in common with safeties of the 1980s than the LBs of the 1980s.
