We still get posts at an almost daily level with ppl still wanting Cam. Cam coulda saved us is still parroted. Cam could still run. But he wasn't much of a passing threat after that Watt hit.

??? He played for the Patriots in another offense he had to learn from whatever Shula put in his head.

Therefore he wasn't done after that hit. You're taking me waaaaay back with those old Cam talking points.

The huddle is in a totally different place right now.

I'm sorry dude, but Cam was basically a Wildcat QB after that hit from Watts. He couldn't throw the ball past 30 yards. And Defenses played him that way. It may be a sad state of affairs. But it is the truth.

False outdated Cam narrative. I guy who couldn't throw past thirty yards wouldn't pass a team physical and would not start for the New England Patriots.

You can continue to explain away that stupidity from Tepper/Rhule but that flew out the window when Belichick signed the man.

Tepper and Rhule were wrong as usual.

You know why we reminisce about players like Cam and Luke and Greg Olsen and Jordan Gross and Smitty? Because we fuging suck complete ass and we had some success with those guys. We miss that success. Fans only reminisce on the off-season or when they fuging suck complete ass

Belicheat had Cam throw a whopping 4 passes in a game. I'm sure if Cam could throw, that game never happens.

 

But I'm done. You obviously have a horse in this race.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
