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.

    • There is so much wrong with this post it's scary. First, as it's been explained to you, the Bills call was 100% correct, he never actually had control of the ball outside of literally less than a half second of time, you're stuck on super slow mo and still frames as your proof.   And second, the refs get almost zero replay assistance on the types of calls that make people say they are terrible at their jobs.  Replay assistance is for things like catches, in/out of bounds, fumbles, and ball placement.  Fans really don't care much about those things and if refs are right or wrong, because of the replay assistance (only comes into factor when it's too close to call so the original call stands) They don't get any assistance on the rest of the penalties that are always what fans get upset about and why people say refs are terrible.  Namely, things like holding and PI, both called and missed, which they get absolutely zero replay assistance for. It's those things I'm talking about where it's really tough for 7 refs to catch everything all the time.  They can only watch so many things at once, and that's if they even have a line of sight on the penalty, so many times the ref is watching the play but the player's bodies are between the ref and the penalty, particularly PI.
    • Slowik was who I wanted as our HC when we hired Canales.  He clearly had an idea of how to maximize Strouds talent. sophmore slumps happen, but he fell off a cliff this year and I believe it can be due to getting rid of him.
    • Trey has plenty of tape standing up surprisingly. Guys like him have the technique and IQ to play the position for awhile. Cincy definitely  did him wrong and I'd gladly accept  him.  He would allow us to continue developing  Princely etc too.  Take an MLB or olineman with 19 or trade back and add more picks.  I'd assume free agent rushers would welcome the fact we have good coverage.
