s.Cam Newton has now lost 12 consecutive starts as Panthers QB. I guess wins don't matter if you're a minority QB. 

and yet inbetween that….Cam won 7 games with the Patriots with what was the worst roster in all of the NFL last year. 

but NE has good coaching.   The problem right now isn’t Cam.  It’s Matt Rhule’s created shitshow.

But for some reason Bellicheck decided to move on.  Maybe he realizes this is a passing league and Cam is not a good passer.

Yeah, because to an extent they are rebuilding the offense.  Cam isn’t a long term add.   They drafted a first round.  And yeah, Cam is too big of a personality for a young QB to deal with.  That’s not a knock on Cam.

He's not a HOF QB.

Nowhere close to being a good enough passer plus zero rings.

He has better passing numbers than some HoF Qbs have and he has an MVP, plus he is the biggest rushing threat at QB the game has ever seen. 

Im not saying he is a 100% lock, but he has a chance.

Cam Newton is a good quarterback but is he Hall of Fame worthy? That is a great question that will only be answered in time.
 
There’s no debating that Cam was a good quarterback because he was. Not only was he a good passer, even though he often had problems being accurate, but he really frustrated defenses with his legs, rushing for over 500 yards in six of his first seven seasons.
 
He was a lot of fun to watch, but with his career winding down, many of us on the Huddle are now asking the famous question — " Is he good enough to get into the Hall of Fame someday?"
 
For one, it’s not the end all, be all, but championships talk, especially for quarterbacks, and Cam has zero on his professional resumé. He led the Panthers to Super Bowl 50 in the 2015 season but they lost to the Broncos and he was heavily criticized for not diving on a loose fumble, which proved costly.
 
Secondly, Cam's numbers aren’t all that impressive in all honestly. He’s only thrown for more than 25 touchdowns once in his career and he did so in the 2015 season where he threw 35 touchdowns and rushed for another 10 . He won the league MVP in 2015 for his efforts and he definitely deserved it, but that was the only season where his numbers really popped.
 
Third, as good as Cam was in his MVP season, he didn’t even throw for 4,000 yards that year and only threw for 4,000 yards just once (2011, his rookie season). He’s also had double-digit interceptions in every season except for 2019 and he only started two games that year.
 
There is no doubting that Cam is a talented player and was a big name when he was playing at a high-level in the NFL, but when it comes time to discuss if he belongs in the Hall of Fame or not, that will remain to be seen by those doing the final selection..

I think he went with who he thinks is the best quarterback now.  Cam was a force early on before he got beat up, but he is not a good passer.  Consistent accuracy has always been an issue and always will be and now with diminishing arm strength it is even worse.

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
