Also, FWIW, Jonathan Alexander Doesn't Think It's a "Strong Possibility" That Cam is Coming Back

I asked him on Twitter yesterday, and I was a bit surprised by his response in contrast to the rumors we were hearing that he already had an offer from us and was just waiting to let everything else play out...  the whispers in the other thread sounded like it was likely.  Can't say I blame Cam considering who we have as coach, but I would've loved to see what he could do behind a legit OL with a legit OC calling plays.

to be fair thats just a blue check mark's opinion

 

we like to use blue check mark's opinions around here like they are nuggets of fact when in reality these people don't know a whole lot more than we do. 

Ehh, Alexander seems to be pretty knowledgeable and I believe has a good "in" to Cam's camp.  If anything last week taught me, there's a whole lotta garbage on Twitter, and I lost a lot of confidence in what the blue checks are supposed to signify, but Alexander is a legit, very good reporter.

Not at all surprising. The Washington game gave us hope. Sadly Cam was still bested by Taylor Heinecke and then the Dolphins game happened. It's time to acknowledge reality. But this team better continue to do right by Cam when the time comes. Which does not seem far off as I don't think he wants to be a clipboard holder. He has numerous off field opportunities ahead I wish him luck and success.

Everyone needs to understand Cam is not the same Cam. His career is probably getting close to being done. He don’t want to be a backup on a team not going to the playoffs. I could see him going to a contender to backup someone and have a chance at a SB. His time in Carolina is over, everyone else needs to see that.

Cam is awful…not sure why that’s so hard to accept

suuuuuurre he could prolly make something happen with some legit weapons, legit HC, legit OC, legit Oline, legit defense keeping him on the field, and refs who call fair games, no doubt.

but people need to realize the more you rack up all these requirements the less it sounds like he can still play because that’s just not reality

You didn’t really say anything. Those are required for nearly anyone to “make something happen.”

Teams were teeing off on our offensive line.  Once we were in obvious passing downs we didn't stand a chance with that line.   Cam still had the pocket awareness and tried to make thing happen but when those defenders are right on top of you there wasn't much he could do.  You make it sound as if the problem was Cam.  IT CLEARLY WASN'T HIM.  We all know this.

Comparing him to any opposing QB is ludicrous.

he's not awful, he's just not who he used to be. his running ability is still a great asset. if he was just used as a goal-line weapon he's still extremely effective.

as a qb he is awful. he is still not on a team for a reason, as the case was last year. no one in the NFL seems to need a good to great FA qb and/or extremely effective goal line weapon

i am sure there are a billion reasons and excuses for it no doubt tho

    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.        
    • My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
