so, cam, how do you feel about this situation down here in carolina?

I have not listen to much.  Skipped around.  Bit I heard, you can tell he isn't ready to talk because he was to be employable.  He did hint at the rest of folks upholding their end of the bargain is crucial to success but he wasn't going to get into all that.

Former NFL linebacker Channing Crowder, one of the hosts of The Pivot Podcast, pushed back against Newton.

“You are 33 years old,” Crowder said. “You done got old. You’re one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world right now? Cam, I cannot accept that. I can’t accept it. I saw what you did in New England. When you went back to Carolina, I saw what happened. Like, the proof’s in the pudding.”

Crowder remained very aggressive regarding the notion that Cam isn’t who he used to be. Newton nevertheless disagreed strongly with the idea that he doesn’t have it anymore, ultimately citing the “fuged up situations” mentioned above.

He basically acknowledged Cam was techincally better today than some of the bottom 32.  But the league doesn't carry about that.  Nor does he. They have to develop guys with bigger ceilings and long term potential.  

Which is true.  A full prep going into a season, Cam would increase your odds of winning over some of the young QBs.  But developing and playing those guys outweighs whatever edge Cam would have snap 1 of week 1.  Id want to start the rookie and young players over Cam.

The Washington game was just a handful of cherry picked plays for Cam.   That basically has a one week shelf life.     Rhule also admitted the plan wasn't to keep him out there that long w/ such a limited set of plays but it was working. 

So his next start he didn't know the offense and their was tape on the hand picked Cam centric plays he could run without knowing the playbook, verbage, etc.  

I mean, Cam is done.  But what he says makes sense.  Rhule used him to stop the boos.  Once the magic was off his return and folks got a lot at what Rhule was going to do with him it was ballgame.   

And what about his next three starts after that? His performance as a passer basically got worse and worse as the year went on (if we exclude the Miami game in his 2nd start which was one of the worst QB performances I’ve seen, although I’d put that mostly on the o-line). If the problem was that he was thrust into the QB position before getting a chance to learn the playbook, then I would expect him to look more and more comfortable under center as the season progressed and he had more time to learn the playbook. But in reality, it was the opposite.

What are you arguing? Cam is done as a starter.  I don't think he is good.  That doesn't mean there isn't truth in what he says.  It's the whole 2 things can be true factor of life.  

Matt Rhule gave Cam Newton 3 games as the guy and they weren't consecutive.  The rest were all QB platoons.   There was no actual time for Cam to learn and show what you wanted.  And on to top of all that? The rest of the offense was going from Brady to whatever Rhule stooge they inserted.  

I mean, it was a bad spot.  That can be true.  Cam can also be washed.  That can be true. One being true doesn't make the other false.

Personally before anyone says he’s done, it would be nice for him to have an entire off season with a team that has a good identity for him to play for.

the panthers are a dumpster fire and quite honestly anyone would have looked “done”

They were a dumpster fire because the line couldn't block now the line is great, on paper.

The Washington game was one of the better QB performances we saw last year.  That game still had similar Cam returns juice that AZ had. 

that L was on Phil Snow and Jackson IMO.  Waited way to late to put Gilmore on Scary Terry on passing downs.

No doubt.  The fact that it took so long to put a DPOY corner on their best WR is a bit embarrassing.  Terry was stealing Jackson’s lunch money and mooning him through the church windows on Sunday morning

Read the quote again. It clearly says the opposite.

 

 

they kept talking about it though.  He went into the fact the league sets the best 32 because what they need and want.  So being a little better than Justin Fields doesn't matter.  His ceiling and potential is higher than Cam's.... and they need to get to figuring it out.

    • Running a business is like driving a car. You need a clear view of the road ahead, a handle on how much gas you have left, and the knowledge of where potential bumps might be. Accounting is like the dashboard of your business, providing essential information to navigate towards success. In simpler terms, accounting tracks your business's financial health. It helps you understand where your money comes from (income), where it goes (expenses), and what you have left over (profit). This knowledge is crucial for making informed decisions that keep your business on the right track. Here's a breakdown of why accounting is important for businesses of all sizes: 1. Evaluating Business Performance Imagine making business decisions in the dark. Accounting sheds light on your company's financial performance. By analyzing your income and expenses, you can see if your sales are increasing, if your costs are under control, and if you're making a profit. This information helps you identify areas for improvement and track your progress over time. For instance, accounting can reveal if a particular product line is a money-maker or a drain on resources. This allows you to focus your efforts on profitable areas and potentially adjust strategies for underperforming ones. 2. Making Informed Decisions Every business decision has financial implications. Accounting empowers you to make smart choices by providing the data you need. Whether it's deciding to invest in new equipment, hire additional staff, or launch a marketing campaign, accounting helps you understand the potential financial impact. Let's say you're considering expanding your business to a new location. Accounting can help you estimate the startup costs, project potential sales, and determine if the expansion is financially viable. This way, you can avoid making decisions that could put your business at risk. 3. Budgeting and Forecasting A budget is like a roadmap for your business finances. Accounting helps you create a realistic budget by analyzing your past income and expenses. This budget becomes a tool for planning your future spending and ensuring you have enough resources to achieve your goals. Accounting also allows you to forecast future financial performance. By analyzing trends and market conditions, you can make educated guesses about your future income and expenses. This helps you prepare for potential challenges and identify opportunities for growth. 4. Securing Funding If you need a loan or investment to grow your business, lenders and investors will want to see your financial statements. These statements, prepared by an accountant, provide a clear picture of your company's financial health. Strong financial statements with accurate and up-to-date information demonstrate your creditworthiness and increase your chances of securing funding. 5. Staying Compliant with Regulations There are government regulations that all businesses must comply with regarding taxes and financial reporting. Accounting ensures you keep accurate records and meet all filing deadlines. This helps you avoid penalties and fines from regulatory bodies. For tax purposes, having well-organized financial records makes filing tax returns a breeze. It also reduces the risk of getting audited by the tax authorities. 6. Managing Cash Flow Cash flow refers to the movement of money in and out of your business. Accounting helps you track your cash flow and ensure you have enough money on hand to cover your expenses. This is crucial for avoiding situations where you can't pay your bills or meet your financial obligations.
