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.

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

      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.
