All the other QBs we've had since Jake have been a lot more consistent. Consistently terrible.

Very, very few can even name the QBs between Jake and Cam. 

Those of us around prior to Cam, understand the impact he left.  Denying it just looks dumb.

1st I doubt he would take the #1 jersey. That being said, is Cam in the HOF? Outside of the Carolina’s is Cam looked at as a Young, Moon, Favre, Kelly, Marino, Starr, Staubach, Unitas, Elway.... etc... 

My personal belief is unless you make it into the HOF your # is up for grabs. Now if the Team wants to do the old “Ring of Fame/Honor” and retire a # in that way. Sure, sounds great! Was Cam the best QB this team has had... Yeah! Does that mean he’s worthy of a retired number? Maybe. Cam might be popular and did great things but is he a “Jordan”? How many Rings/Championships did Cam get again?

Some of you guys are so pro or against a player you argue over everything.

I'm starting to see jerseys, photoshop, etc with him wearing #1.

 

With the new rule changes, this could easily happen.

 

Will the team veto it? Does Horn not care? Can't believe this hasn't been discussed yet...

 

He mentioned in an interview that he wants 24, because of Kobe

Can Shi Smith have 89 then? 

Cam Newton, the former league MVP, was the most impactful player in our franchise’s history.  No other player expanded our fanbase or brought national eyes and conversation to this org in the manner Cam did.   If Cam isn’t a Panther GOAT.  Panther GOATs don’t exist. 

I fully support the staff keeping that number on the shelf in the same manner they have done for other players.  You can pull it out when Cam retires.

He said in his post draft interview that he had been set on a number.  I dont remember which but it was in the 20s, but the rule change had started making him consider a single digit number but he didnt specify the actual number at the time.

The only number the team has retired is #51 for Sam Mills. A lot of great football players have been in Carolina and not had there jersey number retired. Do you really think Cam's will be? Is he more important to the history of the franchise than Julius Peppers, Steve Smith, Luke Kuechly?

Yes, he unquestionably was.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
