He's back.

The Panthers on Thursday agreed to terms with quarterback Cam Newton, bringing the former No. 1 overall pick back to Charlotte, pending a physical.

Well sh*t.

The Fat Lady has sung after all.

It's raining Frogs.

And the Earth is flat apparently. 

 

Never  would I have expected THIS to happen and that's no joke.

I love Cam so I pray all this works out for good!

Me too, but I've been of the opinion for a while that fuggin' "Coach of the Year" MO-RON ("Yes, I care about da community and da peoplez!") Rivera ruined him physically and he's not able to do it anymore.

And I'd be thrilled as fug if he can show me I'm wrong... and, dear lord, what a wonderful FUG U to the goddam NFL if he does! 

Yeah, even though he does still have a nasty scar in his back from a black, blue, and silver dagger.  Dude has just shown he's bigger and better than that, so I may as well follow his example.

Falcons fan perspective [albeit one with a soft spot since i) he’s a local kid and ii) he and I have the same favorite team ;)]: Very good move. Cam is definitely still one of the best 30 QBs on the planet even if he’s just 75% healthy. Darnold may not even be in the top 50.

Fortunately Cam is not 1/100 the whiney wuss you are.

Just watching some old highlight reels and feeling pretty nostalgic tonight. We really did have something with this guy, didn't we?

My favorite Cam moment: the 2013 last march down the field and TD to Hixon to beat the Saints, and win the division. Because he made everyone in that stadium believe he was going to do it (including most importantly, his teammates), then he did. That was some special energy. Just a quarter of that feeling would blow anything that's happened this season out of the water.

Cam never should've been released. We were mostly excited to see what he could do in Joe Brady's system since Cam spent so long in the same basic philosophies of Mike Shula and Norv Turner. This system is something unlike Cam has run and he has a full compliment of skill position players he hasn't had since 2013.

If the Panthers could build a quality offensive line around him, one that could keep Cam in the top half of the league in QB hits, we could see a Renaissance for him here at home. I thought cutting Cam for Teddy was to tank for draft picks and it turns out I was wrong, they really thought we could win with him.

Now I'm not convinced we can win this season with Cam, considering we can only be as good as our weakest link, and our weakest link ot once of the worst in the league. 

We have a Top Quarter defense, a top 5 running back group, a Top 15 receiver Corp, a top 15 QB, and a bottom 2 offensive line. If Cam can show something, and we can be in the running for a Wild Card, the Panthers need to consider giving Cam a shot in this offense, in his city. Do not do him like you did last time. Cam built the culture that persists today, let him continue that. 

We saw where he was when we had CMC his rookie year. If they can adapt the playbook quick enough, it should be exciting ball.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
