Cam Newton should be done as a starting QB in this league

He just doesn't have the ability to throw the football anymore with any consistency.

Yes - Brady sucks

Yes - offensive line sucks

Yes - the wide receivers can't get open consistently.

You still expect your starting QB to put up better stats than 5/21, 92 yards, 0 TD, 2 INT passing.

Perhaps he can still be serviceable in goal line or short yardage packages but they need to just let PJ start and draft a QB next year.  Hopefully, we'll have a new coach by then too.

The odds of a career resurgence were not great but it's all we had. Whenever we go from here my hope is that we seek a head coach with both real nfl experience and a new philosophy altogether. We've been doing the defensive identity thing for many years enough is enough. Get someone in here who wants to build up the offense into a threat with a real offensive line instead of wasting whole drafts on the other side of the ball and acting shocked when the wheels fall apart on offense.

That 64 yard pass play was pretty good and I’m  Pretty sure he checked out of whatever Brady called to that play based on the defense 

he also had two passes to start the game In DJs hands dropped

The truth is, he has issues, but so does every other player and coach on that field 

the shallow crossing routes called in certain situations with routes too close   to the oline ….simply unbelievable particularly when as a OC you can see the defense crowding the line and sitting on those routes 

ask yourself, there are three capable running backs plus Newton against a blitzing Miami defense that isn’t great against the run, why were they throwing so much

We used him correctly against Arizona - red zone QB who's a threat to score with his arms or his legs, especially when you're running Play Action.

As evidenced by his 5.8 QB rating yesterday, he's toast as a starting QB in the NFL.

Honestly I just can’t comprehend how shitty of an OC brady is. He was genuinely putting any qb we put under center in serious danger. We have no o line and his play designs are atrocious and so slow and he doesn’t even bother to keep the rb to block or add an inline blocker. He owes this team an apology after that poo show we just watched.

I'm surprised we haven't seen PJ more in the past two weeks honestly. Cam can still obviously play a part in the offense, especially in the red zone. But I just can't see how he's a full time starting option after less than 3 weeks on the roster. If they bring him back next season and he has a full offseason in whatever offensive coordinator's system they have, I'm sure he'd look better. I feel like they ran the same 3-4 formations and ran the same plays over and over because he only knows like 20% of the playbook at this point.

Just yet another reminder that the WFT had both its DEs out. Both those DEs are 1 - elite the other very good.

There's a reason we had time to throw last time. This OL makes any our QBs look like poo and then Brady on top makes it look like something we'd need another vocabulary word invented for.

Honestly…it’s just insane to me that the coaching staff didn’t see something in practice to say they needed to bring him along slower. As fans we of course want to see him start. But FFS this is the NFL…they didn’t see ANY downside of playing a guy 100% of the snaps who can only deliver 50% of the playbook??

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best

      I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.

      I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
