We cant win with PJ but Cam isn't the answer

I mean, that depends on the question. Cam is an answer to the "What available QB's are much better than PJ Walker?" question. Cam isn't the answer to the "What QB is the future of QB for the Carolina Panthers?" question.

If I was magically the coach today, I would absolutely be calling Cam Newton. He elevates our rushing game immediately and he can be an upgrade at QB over Darnold. Do I think that leads us to a playoff spot? No. But at least we would potentially have an NFL caliber offense to go with our elite defense.

This is all theory, however. There is no chance Tepper wants to see the guy he jettisoned come back into the building.

He's not better than Darnold.  He's straight trash but better than PJ. See above ^^^^^^

He is better than Darnold. He was better than Darnold last year and he is better than Darnold this year.

We get it, you hate Cam. For the rest of us, we can see that Darnold stinks.

Did you watch the video? Do you see how bad the passes and decisions are?

The guy hasn't been good in 5 years.

I watched a lot of Cam last year. He was terrible in a stretch after COVID, but not bad (better than Darnold for sure) before and after.

On top of that he is still an effective running threat, moreso than Darnold.

Buuut... He's not coming back. Even if the coaches wanted him I'm not sure he'd want to be here.

No. I wouldn't come to this situation either. If I were him I would come if the Saints called. 

As a Panther fan, I genuinely hope Payton decides Taysom The Golden Calf of Bristol is the answer the rest of the year. I will enjoy going 2-0 versus them.

we aren’t trading for anyone.  That would just be flushing resources and picks down the toilet.  

we aren’t a good football team.  That’s with Darnold starting.   That’s with anyone else starting. 

I agree, lose with Darnold or lose with PJ...does it really matter?

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
