Do they re-sign Cam now?

There’s no downside to bringing him back. The offense is legitimately awful. Cam can at least put a couple TDs on the board a game usually. He’s better than any of the QBs on the roster, yet again. 

100% facts.  I think it should be a matter if Cam wants to.  If so, let's ride!

They aren’t signing Cam unless they just want to fill seats up. Please don’t tell me Cam is the answer to our offensive issues because he isnt. 

This.

I don't think he's the cure to our offensive woes. And frankly I think he deserves better than to spend the twilight years of his career getting abused by this line...again.

But at this point I think Cam coming back is the only thing that would spark fan enthusiasm to turn out. I mean, I sure wouldn't shell out $200+ to see a Panthers team with an interim HC and QB. But I might to see Cam.

Otherwise, our home games are just a fire sale of tickets for visiting teams' fans.

People who constantly chirp "re-sign Cam", I have to ask, do you understand football? 

He's the greatest Panther QB ever, but he's shot. I don't understand why people are blind to that. If he took care of his body and didn't have the mileage, then that's a whole different story.

Not really. RPO doesn't mean the QB is the run option. It means run play with option to pass.

See the eagles superbowl season with Wentz and Foles

lol... you literally just supported my statement. That year Wentz had 64 rushing attempts, and was on pace for over 100 total carries before tearing his ACL.... Successful RPO offenses leverage the QB as a rushing weapon as well. 

 

ironically, Wentz tore his ACL on a rushing play.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
