You either do none or you got to do 90, 1, 89.  

89 - I am good with

A maybe

90- could see it either way

Then the no's

59 - great, then injuries made him just good, and then gone too early

1 - incredible performances sprinkled with lousy ones,  injuries and gone too early

58- good story with the 3 ACL's ,but had 3 shortened seasons

17 - fiery player for way too short a time.

Nope retire Cams jersey ASAP just to be sure 

I personally think that should be done. This franchise changed for the better while he was in Charlotte and while he was polarizing for some, his overall impact was incredibly positive. His stats, 55 TD's in 2015, speak for themselves.

I personally wish the talking heads wouldn't gloss over his stats from that season as it really was one of the single greatest individual performances in THE MODERN ERA.

Yes... I think the concept of retiring jerseys is stupid unless you are an absolute all time great in the history of the sport (MJ, Gretzky) or you so impactful you must be honored (Jackie Robinson). The Ring of Honor (or similar recognition) is how you memorialize your all time greats. 

I believe I remember seeing that Notre Dame has a sign in the lockler of each player with the names and feats of players who wore the number before they did. Might be the best way to keep history alive and well. 

Cam being a world beater wearing #1 shouldn't keep another guy from wearing it. Same goes for 89, 69, 80.. etc

I'm sure if you ask there are a number of members who "loathe" your general poor attitude around this place also. Look in the mirror before judging others mr enlightened and woke.

i'll be sure to ask around

      "Floor, not Ceiling" - between the hashmarks

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

      Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
