I love Cam but I think his arm is done. He can’t last more than half a season

Tepper made a bet that Cam was done.

I wouldn't bet against Cam Newton, WE knew that, HE made a miscalculation and if the Patriots start winning with this QB that was DONE Teppers decisions look more suspect.

Some of us here thought Cam had at least 3-5 years left.

Who's winning so far?

That's because he wasn't attempting many throws beyond short and intermediate.  With the same group of crappy wide receivers, Patriots went from throwing 58% of the time with Tom Brady, to only 47% of the time with Cam Newton. They went from 8th best passing offense (yds/game) in 2019, to 29th in 2020.  

Read the comments on their fan message board, 99% are shocked he was resigned. 

 And again those stats and information you're throwing out still doesn't prove Cam's arm is done. You know there are other factors at play (PERSONNEL) being one of the main catalysts in your theory. The other is Cam's time with the playbook. Julian Edleman was Tom Brady's #1 WR that year. Had a 1,000 yard season. Where was Julian Edleman for 75% of Cam's season last year? On the sideline (except for that one game where you know, Julian had his best game of his entire career with Cam at QB). Tom Brady also left town and jump shipped to go play in a stacked offense. Funny how you left that bit of information out. He didn't want to throw to the likes of N'keal Harry and Damiere Byrd and I don't blame him

Not even a debate, releasing Cam was the right decision. I would have waited another year until we could draft his replacement.

Gantt said the same.

Honestly though, I think the bigger question applies to Belichick.

Last season had folks asking whether Belichick's greatness was really due to Brady.

Regardless of what happens with Newton, if the Patriots struggle again this year, those questions are gonna get louder.

Brady wouldn't have won a Super Bowl with the players Cam was surrounded with on offense....maybe he would have made the playoffs, but that's a BIG maybe.

Pats defense wasn't anything to brag about either.

He only looked good throwing like one game. There are numerous gifs and videos out there showing just how bad his arm is now. He often wound up like he was getting ready to throw a bomb, only for him to sail a 10 yard deep duck. His throwing motion often looked like a weird technical glitch. At this point you have to be delusional to think he is nothing more than a shadow of his former self.

Yet he's starting QB for the New England Patriots.

Who sounds foolish?

A glance at message boards suggests otherwise. They are about as excited as we are to have Teddy back but not as hateful about it.

New England fans not hateful? First and only time I encountered someone that referred to Newton by a racial slur was a patriots fan.

      Yep he made the comment " I dont know what they were doing out there at that point" in the press conference. Let's be real they all got paid but they also know his system suppresses there offensive potential.

      Yup the casuals on Facebook ive gotten 85 laughing or angry emojis so far for pointing it out.  The amount of them throwing a fit because the canes were booed is insane

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen.
