It's still very difficult to figure out. He's a mediocre bandaid veteran who has never thrown more than 14 TDs in a season and he has what is probably the most devastating knee injury possible in his medical file.

Lets hope TB plays well and if he doesn't I hope P.J. Walker does a better job if it comes to that.

So Cam "shoulders" none of the blame in your scenario? Gotta love that pun haha. 

Good one!  He "shoulders" some, but players have to be protected from themselves.  Rivera acted like he had no idea Cam was playing hurt even though it was obvious to everyone.

Cam to Patriots. Guarantee this will happen. 

yep. Not sure if it'll be anytime soon, but I think it'll eventually happen. BB would be good for Cam. I think Cam would respect him enough to follow the Patriot way. And that would be the best thing for his career. 

I think he loved Rivera as a man/mentor, but perhaps not so much as a HC. Cam knows he was misused and underprepared.

For nine years, much of the Carolinas hated Cam Newton, downplayed how great at football he was, made fun of the way he dressed, and spoke in barely coded language about him. Now that he’s gone, cats talk about him the way they quote MLK on Jan. 18 — insincerely.

This would be a lot better coming from someone who hasn't taken every opportunity to take a shot at the Panthers (and Cam) for years.

No offense, but I think most true Panthers fans understand that the bandwagoners will be gone now. Not necessarily a bad thing. I love Cam Newton and appreciate what he did for this franchise, but the NFL is a business. It was time to move on.

      It's not even a particularly nuanced opinion, yet it seems out of reach for so many.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t think he can be great. For me he tops out as starter maybe make the playoffs, stuff like that. I would have been okay with that kind of player as a placeholder but you don’t invest the time and assets we did and be happy with that.  On the cure,If a guy has mechanical flaws but otherwise is enticing, you let someone else make the mistake of taking him in the top of the 1st. If he doesn’t get taken you can pick him up 2nd or 3rd day and try to develop him (off the bench not starting).  The risk/reward with Bryce was horribly misjudged. I didn’t want to trade like that in the first place because I didn’t see the generation talent that justifies that type of move, but once it was done CJ was the better gamble. No doubt.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      That's what I mean. If you claim to possess some super knowledge about the QB position from a previous non-football but football related job, wouldn't you want to expound upon that to support this "everyone doesn't know anything about being a QB" thesis? The rest is just summed up by stating that there are a lot of variables to a QB being successful. Yeah....I mean that isn't earth shattering.  While there is certainly a lot of luck involved in all manners of success, consistent success with the variables around you also changing on a regular basis is usually fairly conclusive.  Is Trent Dilfer the same as Tom Brady? Is Nick Foles the same as Patrick Mahomes? I supposed based on the OP's arguments, they are. That's not really the way it turned out, however.  The NFL isn't unlike most other jobs or even other sports. The cream typically does rise to the top on a more consistent basis. Is it accidental that premier poker players seem to win or perform very well on a consistent basis, give that any individual hand is largely luck?
