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.

I have said more than a few times that Cam as the backup QB along with being a short yardage and red zone weapon makes a lot of sense.  Not sure Cam would want a backup role but Cam isn't the starting QB answer for any extended time IMO.

He'd be a starting QB here because of how terrible our situation currently is. But, hypothetically, going into 2022 with Cam as a starter wouldn't be much different than 2020 or 2021 was. It's again just not addressing the issue.

But, it would be a HELL of a lot more fun to watch than what we are currently watching at QB.

Just a guess, But We  won't trade for  a QB,  Had we won 2 of the games against Phi, NYG, or Minn,  we might have tried to pull a rabbit out of our hat.  But we didn't . 

With our remaining schedule , I can't see them expecting to hold on to the 7th spot to make the playoffs. So why trade for someone else's non starter.

oh we're back to discrediting wins based on who is at QB and how many points we win by I see.

yes we played a garbage azz team where the starter QB (who didn't do poo, really) is now concussed and we're heading into the actual competitive part of this year's schedule. fug off with this try hard enthusiasm.

      The Carolina Huddle

      By ladypanther · Posted

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.

      Favorite JAG 2020+

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.

      He wasn't a JAG, he's been a starter every year of his career. Didn't turn into the superstar it seemed like he might his rookie year, but I think part of that has been being misused. Guy was/is a baller.
