Approaching this from the coldheartedly realistic side...

It's not Matt Rhule's job to give Cam Newton a proper sendoff or to make his fans happy. We sh-t all over Ron Rivera for trying to give older players storybook endings, and rightly so.

Rhule's job is to win professional football games, and if benching Cam Newton is the best way to do that, he'd be thoroughly justified in doing so.

That's a perfectly valid argument...

...with one major flaw 😕

Matt Rhule has shown quite clearly that he doesn't really know how to win professional football games, so why should we trust his judgment on this decision anymore than we trust it on others?

Me? I'm no professional but of it were my ass on the line, I'd keep Newton as the starter through the rest of the season.

...

Course, if it were my ass on the line, I'd like to think I wouldn't have hired a college coaching staff to do a professional job 😕

 

these losses are so unnecessary , that 2 qb system works for the panthers. let pj drive downfield, and cam finishes it off however cam sees fit. but rhule is now scared of upsetting the fans by putting pj back in. they brought cam back because you guys wanted cam back and now that isn't even working.

Matt Rhule and company are incompetent at their jobs and incapable of fielding a competitive team.  Bringing Cam back was a Hail Mary by the Panthers (Tepper most likely) to appease the fans and possibly win a few games late in the season.

So you hate on the MVP quarterback but you defend the loser college coach 

make it make sense 

I took his post to mean Cam no longer has championship potential, which is about 99.9% accurate at this stage. That’s not hate, that’s reality.  
We all know Rhule blows dead bears.

Give Cam the start, put Sam in as #2 QB and just let PJ have an easy day without a uniform.

As to next season, Cam isn't the answer at QB. He would, however, be one of the best possession receivers you could ask for. Just saying the guy has the world record for most one handed catches in a row, has a distinct competitive spirit, you can't teach 6'5" 245 lbs, he knows the route tree (from QB perspective) and he is a monster to bring down when he has the ball. 

Could be a great second act for Cam. If Rhule is gone.

      Veteran CB trying out for Panthers

      I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!

      I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
