IT'S LITERALLY THE SAME FROM THE LAST GAME MINUS ONE PERSON JFC

BC was an upgrade at LT the last 2-3 games. Starting BC keeps Erving from LT which makes it an upgrade, the guards were our weak spot and now we got a solid one to replace 1 of the 2. Elf was serviceable at C (also different as we started Paradis until he got hurt). So 3/5 would be new starters that what we started with last year (BC, Corbett, and Elf at C) and Moton is solid at RT. Throw in an OL coach that knows what he is doing and yeah it’s an upgrade. Still have a weak spot at LG with C and LT able to be upgraded, but instantly better than what we trotted out last year.

Yeah for now, BC-guard-Elf-Corbett-Moton. Deonte played LG in college so that's probably the placeholder

Cam is not coming back

If we don’t get Watson I think Cam is very much in play. 
 

To be honest it’s possible we field a better team this year with Cam, a rebuilt o-line, and  all of our draft assets vs Watson and stripped bare defense, and likely no CMC or  DJ.

Newton has looked worse and worse every game since midseason of 2018.  He is not reversing that trend.

I love Cam.  Favorite player.  But I'd much rather watch Darnold continue to suck than Cam outstay his welcome.  It was fun to have Cam back and get the closer both sides needed, but it is time to move on. 

If Cam wants to play, he should do it in a Taysom Hill kind of role for a contending team.  Lot of value for him there.  But as a starting QB?  He sucks.  So does Darnold but Darnold is already signed to the roster.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
