I will never understand the Mac Jones stans. He seems like such an obvious example of a guy that has a very low NFL ceiling. And I don't mean to say that he can't be a great #2 QB in the NFL at some point but nothing about him screamed long term NFL starting material. 

He also seems to have a drinking problem. I don’t get it either. Some people on here just wanna see Cam fail.

I think drinking problem is a stretch. He is just being young and dumb, just like a lot of young people are dumb. I don't begrudge him young, dumb mistakes. The question I always have about any of those guys is how  quickly they are going to mature.

This was recently after he was drafted. All over social media him wasted, slurring his words.  Not talking about his previous DUI’s. All of those things kinda point to a problem.

I mean.....you know he is 22 years old, right? So you never got wasted in your early 20's? The DUI shows a general lack of responsibility and very poor decision making. But, being drunk at a club? Man...he's 22. Most of the NFL players at that age are partying and doing young people stuff. 

Were all the Gronkowski partying/drinking videos indicative of him having a drinking problem?

Wait until Cam is in the midst of a second MVP season this year while we're a good QB away from being a Super Bowl team. This place is going to be a riot.

You think Cam is going to have a mvp season after having multiple games throwing below 150 yards passing? I mean are you expecting 80% of the players to get injured? Because Cam isn’t going to be mvp with guys like Mahomes, Rodgers, Allen, Jackson and Wilson. Hell you would probably have a higher chance of a running back like Henry or Mcaffrey winning mvp before Newton. There are probably 15 qbs who are better than Newton right now. I mean last year we were told how he was going to come back and be so great and how he was in such good shape and Bellacheat would get the most out of him and we saw how that went.

I honestly don’t really care about this enough to keep up the back and forth lol

I will say this for Cam.  His bread and butter was always working through the TEs.  Belichick went out and got not one but two studs at TE......plus all their COVID hold outs will back.   Plus, Cam will have a year in the books of what is largely regarded as a tough O to walk into.   I certainly wouldn't bet against him if he stays healthy.

If Cam didn't win that job is says a lot more about Cam than it does the bums behind him. No one really believed that nonsense about Mac Jones, right?

Somebody believed it enough to draft him 😕

Stidham got injured. I have a feeling he's not going to last.

Mac Jones is a turd. I'm pulling for cam.

Can't do it in that uniform, sadly. I hope he ends up somewhere that I can finally wish him the best again.

Not sure I'd copy the recent Pats draft model.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      By countryboi · Posted

      You joke, but it can always be worse. He might walk with a limp or need assistance. Different sport, but Lonzo Ball couldn't even walk up steps a year after his injury.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      By Icege · Posted

      I mean... a lot of the information that could've helped set better expectations has always been out there: There was no RB on the team under contract for the 2025 - 2026 season except for Miles Sanders. The team did not have a second round pick going into the 2025 season due to the trade for Young. Chuba's extension did not happen until the beginning of November. Jonathon Brooks was the clear RB1 in the class with a massive gap between RB1 & RB2. Example: Dane Brugler had Brooks as RB1, overall #48; Blake Corum was RB2, #81 overall. The Giants held pick #47 and had just lost Saquon Barkley to the Eagles in free agency. They were going to take Brooks had the Panthers not jumped in front of them. So if we're framing things with that context: Chuba was expected to be RB1 Miles (at the time) was RB2 Brooks was essentially RB3, stashed for rehab in 2024 with a long runway. The original injury occurred Nov 2023 while the re-injury occurred December 2024. That is right in the high-risk window for recurrence, especially in explosive athletes. The fact that it also happened on a non-contact play suggests possible biomechanical issues such as muscle imbalance, rather than a failed surgery (or bad decision-making).   NFL teams invest heavily in medically vetting prospects. If there had been a clear red flag in imaging or recovery markers, the team is going to find it. This sucks and the Panthers have sucked, yes, but this wasn't blind optimism or malpractice by the front office. It was a calculated decision based on the roster, draft capital, positional scarcity, etc.

      Clowney released

      Yep, but they can all rotate with Brown, Brown and Robinson (sounds like a law firm). Can't continue to have Derrick Brown out there for 90+ percent of the defensive snaps. An injury was bound to happen.
