Yeah .. he'd have to be healthy to stay or go

The question before was, will Cam get healthy?

Now it is - will we trade a healthy Cam Newton? And the answer to that question is common sense if you ask me

No one is asking you though.

Yeah because for close to a decade he was the teams leading rusher while having to make chicken salad out of chicken poo in the passing game ..

Cam, besides Olsen, and Smith for a couple years, has had trash targets

And you think Cam is going to go back to running?

[KatsAzz]

Panther fans need to condition themselves to the fact that Cam Newtons days as a starter may very well be over.

 

Cam, like all scrambling QBs, lasted about 5 - 7 years and the excessive wear on the body from being hit from his runs.

 

Lamar Jackson is in the same boat, in another 5 years he will be toast. RG3, Newton, Jackson, Vick: just name any scrambler and I will show you a short NFL career.

 

Russell Wilson has been lucky so far.

Cam has always ran out of necessity, not because he was trying to hide his passing game. He did not have a WR or RB he could throw it 5 yards to that could take it to the house for 80 .. now he does.

career 59% thrower and that is what he did in his mvp season.

Sweet Christ you are dense.  They are not going to build a franchise from the ground up on a perpetually injured qb no matter what he costs.  They are not going to play him this year and then turn around and give him a mega deal.  If they let him walk then thats one year wasted of the process.  Right or wrong they (Rhule and tepper) are starting completely over.  Why the hell you cannot see this when literally everyone is saying he is gone is beyond me.  You are either mildly retarded or a troll.

 

Cam is a 59% completion thrower and is 71-59 career.  He is good but he aint what you are making him out to be.

Cam is 71-51 when healthy. To hold the last 8 games against him is disingenuous. And he isn't perpetually injured. He started nearly every game of his career with the exception of 2018-2019. There isn't player they could draft that could be better than Cam if he's healthy. That's the dilemma. The prospect of getting Cam back healthy gets the Panthers winning quickly. Plus he would be cheap in a one year evaluation and Tepper wouldn't have to lose all credibility with the fans. If Cam leaves and balls out then that shows Tepper cares entirely too much what the media and other people think. There's a high chance we are in the gutter for a long time if we just expect to draft a star QB.

Well that just shows you that the stats don't matter with a player like Cam. We went to the superbowl that year. Drew Candyass Brees has a high completion percentage, but he chokes when the game is on the line, so what? 

Cam plays the game to win. You can't critique his passing without understanding the context of his game and consider rushing stats to effect that. Why would Cam throw a 5 yd pass to Devin Funchess on 3rd down when he know's he will drop the ball. Cam has been virtually an automatic conversion on 3rd and short. The smart play has always been for him to rack up those plays himself because it can rarely be stopped. The Panthers have always ran a high risk high reward offense with long developing plays, "set up runs", and minimal safety valve receiving options. It wasn't until Norv came along and that changed, and Cam proved he could be highly effective at it.
