This decision is all upside tbh. Even if Cam doesn't perform here, most fans won't blame the team for trying.

Cam is the best option we have at QB. He also fits the new identity we are trying to emphasize perfectly. 

It's definitely all upside.

Cam comes in and makes us look competent on offense?  Win.

Cam comes in and shows that he isn't an NFL QB anymore?  Win.

Cam comes in, plays ok but the offense is still bad?  Win.

The only potential downside is that Cam comes in, plays ok to good, and then we let him walk again.  That's really the only way we can eff this up.

Side A: compare the last 2 QBs to a more known QB, even if not 100% old self. If same stick as last 2 it's damning more of the OL/Brady/WRS if same poo known entity under center with Cam. If it's better than last 2 QBs by a bunch, it's damning of all who got Cam out the door to start 2020. There is also a chance cam is no longer worth a darn and that says nothing of the team, but odds are comparisons and judging of the staff other players/staff outside Cam will get a lot of heat no matter how this goes.

Side B: win now mode/money grab for fans excited cause Cam. Win or lose it's $ that this is also about too vs crap QBs with no history with the team.

Was it the state of the QB situation? Was it the fan base jumping ship? Did Tepper over ride Rhule and make the decision?

What is your gut feelings on this? After getting fleeced by the Jets, they are back to square one. The photo of Cam and Tepper is something else (like best buddies.)

Don't  see Rhule anywhere around. What do u think was the motivation to do this?

I 100% believe the reason why it so long for cam to sign with any team cause to cam newton it was always either its Carolina panthers or bust! He's right where he wants to be.  Let's face it, he's probably the most loved player in Carolina history

I think what promoted the Cam signing is all our QB's play like hot ass on a humind day. I think Sam's arm has the accuracy of one of those t-shirt shooting air guns. PJ's arm I would lump in the same category as well. I just hate for Cam being behind this offensive line. He will be running for his life. I hope he retires a Panther also. He was a great guy for the community of Charlotte and I absolutely LOVED how good he was with kids. He has a good heart and deserves more credit for being such a good dude. His skills may not be what they once were possibly but it will be nice to see him in a Panthers uniform again.

      The Ringer NFC Offseason podcast

      By frankw · Posted

      The division is most certainly wide open. The Bucs are a problem but Baker Mayfield is and will remain his own worst enemy it's a matter of when not if he has a bad game or even a stretch of bad games. As far as the Panthers they have done an admirable job of trying to address needs as best they can without pulling a Scott Fitterer and getting desperate which has only made us worse off in the past. On the Bryce subject all anyone can really say at this point is we just have to wait and see. This is the year and despite what the Panthers may say publicly doubling down and going all in on WR is as good as any sign anyone should need that they expect Bryce Young to have a very productive and convincing season. The pieces are in place. They aren't perfect but nothing ever will be. Regardless there's honestly no excuse for this staff and this team not to be able to compete in this iteration of the NFC South. Also just want to say this because I can say the hyper defensive posts already being made in here and it's probably going to be a season with highs and lows again but hopefully more highs for sure. But just because there is dialogue about a position group or a player that challenges your preconceived notions or makes you uncomfortable does not make it "hate" or "anti" this player or that player. For some people who talk a lot about nuance you would think this wouldn't need to be stated but that's where we're at.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      If I was a coach I would preach "Don't let the refs decide the game" because as soon as you let the NFL the chance to help their bottom dollar whether it be teams that make most money or gambling then they will screw the team that doesn't fit their bottom line......is it rigged? No but do they try and make certain narratives happen abso-freakin-lutley. As I stated in a previous thread NFL players are the ones that SHOULD have all guaranteed contracts but the boot lickers on this forum disagree and argue for the billionaires in this world who own these teams, sheep

      I wont go quite so far as to say games are rigged.  You wouldnt have to work hard to convince me there was the occasional thumb on the scale but outright rigged? nah.   but collusion on the rest of the "business" of football, sure.  No one really believes that the only time the 32 owners act as one is during the negotiations of the CBA do they?
