When you find out how this turns out,  and you are wrong, will you revisit this thread?

We don't have all the information, and if new information comes to light that shows Cam is full of poop, that our leadership was actually honest and forthcoming, then I'll retract this entire thread's worth of posts. I'm not locked down on any view if new info pops up proving the contrary.

I suspect the answer is the middle and both have a bit o poop.  I suspect There was stuff going on behind the scenes.  That coupled with the injury status probably came to a tipping point.   The winner is usually the guy with the biggest checkbook.

Cam is one of those guys who will write an autobiography at some point and I'm turning to this chapter first.

Fires Ron Rivera and does a full-court media blitz with a self imposed interview sit down on Panthers.com discussing why, etc.

He and his puppets (Hurney, Rhule) lie all offseason about their intentions with Cam until the ultimate ending that happened today. 

Now he is hiding behind Hurney and not facing the music.

Coward, IMO. Going to be a rough era under his ownership.

A team concealed their personnel plans?  You don’t say?  Geez, head outta the sand folks

I’m a huge cam supporter. But I’m a Panther fan first. I am a little surprised and a lot disappointed that he won’t be a part of the plan going forward. 

But I see this for what it is- it’s a business decision- and clearly not an easy one for anyone to make- but it had to be made- one way or the other. The thing about business decisions is that you can’t be emotional about them. You can’t always be public about the things and conversations going on behind the scenes. 
 

Here’s what I know- right now Cam is still on the team- he’s clearly on the table for trade, may even be cut if no offers come. He might also remain a panther - maybe we will cut Grier or Allen instead and let Cam heal a bit longer while Bridgewater gives us some better QB play than we got last year.

Whatever happens, you can either choose to be ok with it, choose to be emotional about it. Many here are choosing the emotional route.

      Panthers coverage efficiency

      By NAS · Posted

      Call me crazy but if you’re in the bottom 7 in efficiency using Zone 84% of the time why not try something else? You paid Jaycee top 5 CB money use him more effectively. Zone is only efficient if you can generate a good pass rush to force a QB into mistakes otherwise you will get picked apart

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Good Lord this board has become a cesspool of negativity and where fandom becomes something twisted and unrecognizable.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.
