I think Cam might make a good position coach. He's got the energy and the positive attitude.

No

I love Cam, was thrilled when we brought him back and will always support him.

But he was never the best at reading defenses and his style of game was the exact opposite of fundamentals, how's he going to teach any QB that isn't a replica of himself?

Love Cam, but he's really sticking to the "aint 32 better than me" thing? He's probably not wrong, but look at his last 1.5 seasons. Idk, at this point just comes across salty. I'd love love love to see him get a chance somewhere and prove it, but I doubt he ever does, and I'm not entirely certain he could prove it.

Cam fell into the Kaepernick and The Golden Calf of Bristol trap. It's not that he isn't good enough to play a role in the NFL. It's just that teams deem the role he would likely play for them not to be worth the attention and ultimately the distraction it would bring.  Cam is a big personality and would bring a ton of media attention and players and coaches would constantly be fielding Cam questions. Teams probably don't want to deal with that.

If Russell Wilson wasn't coming off of such a disastrous season I could see Payton bringing Cam to Denver to play the role of Taysom Hill but given how awful Wilson was last year I can't see it. If he started out rough again the calls for Cam would grow louder and louder.

Cam was never the sideshow like Kaep and The Golden Calf of Bristol were. His personality isn't why he hasn't been signed yet.

His arm is shot.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
