What if games are for kids. 

What ifs are built into the very fabric of language, specifically the one you are typing in. 
 

A foundational characteristic of human beings is the concept of future and past, so what ifs are used consistently for analyzing the past (such as this thread) and for theorizing the future. Such future what if thinking might be eating less food today so you have some for tomorrow (or so you won’t gain weight over time, etc) and other planning.
 

So what ifs aren’t just for kids, but are used by every person, many times daily, all the time. 
 

And that includes you.

 

Now if you are saying we are all kids no matter the age, I might agree with that.

How could anyone say, "Releasing Cam?"  He was coming off surgery and has never recovered.  He would have commanded a $100m salary.  I mean, if he went on to take NE to the Super Bowl and was still starting somewhere, I might agree.

It was not Rhule who disrespected Cam.  It was Ron Rivera (the way he used Cam and the way they avoided spending on an OL).

 

Just my 2c,  but signing Cam would have been terrible.  Not a Rhule supporter, but there is no room for blind loyalty in the NFL.

What if games is a child's game. Meaning immature.  

I don't care how you look at it. 

 I don't play such stupidity.

I dont think cutting Cam was an issue. Remember Cam had 1 year left on his contract and was coming off an injured shoulder and a poor season. Reports were that Cam wanted a new contract.

So with all of that I think the coaching staff had to go look for an alternative. 

Cam was never going to come back on a 1 year contract. 

Should have called his bluff. I’ve always thought that. If Cam was willing to risk his career holding out when everyone had valid concerns about whether he still had it; let him. Instead they pulled the plug so they could move quickly on Bridgewater.

100% punt the 2020 coofus season. 

Never sign Teeddddy2gloves

Come to terms with cutting Cam after 4 cry sessions

Dont trade tri"got my bag now I quit" turner for okung ""giimmie bitcoins""

Stock pile picks for 2021 

Stack cap space for 2021 

Go hard in 2021 given 100+ million in cap space and 13+/- draft picks.

Cutting Cam and hiring Bridgewater.  I consider them both part of one decision.  Best to let Cam play out his final year, see if he has anything left.  If not, draft a qb and more on.  

The Cam/Bridgewater thing was the first of several baffling decisions at qb that still make no sense at all.

    • Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
    • That's why I say we have to keep looking. Even if you believe Bryce is the guy, KP and Grier are not and who knows if King is anything more than a gimmick player, we should be active in improving our 2nd QB spot. Season ending injuries happen, and you don't just want to roll over and give it up. How many starters have we seen come from the ranks of backup? Having 2 potential starting QBs is one of the best problems we could have. 
    • Eh, it’s more on how bad the refs are. Some of these calls against the canes are no calls
