I'm trying to wrap my mind around the logic of because Cam got his throwing shoulder destroyed within the pocket that means if we draft the smallest QB in the NFL he'll play 15 seasons.

Tagging the wrong guy because I have huge concerns about how Young will hold up in the NFL.

TJ Watt? Ring any bells?

The shoulder was after the KB lazy route/interception and super Cam has to run and try and tackle the guy.

TJ was just another cheap shot that went unflagged. It hurt him though, but not like the shoulder ultimately did

I was referring to the post you quoted. Seen the argument applied so many times. Because Cam at his size had a shorter career due to his shoulder that means a 190 pound QB will play over a decade. It's fine to support him as the pick and like his attributes. But using Cam's injury as a validation is just lazy. One fluke hit can change everything that's the nature of the sport. It's cool that people want to assume the refs will protect our QB but consider me skeptical at best on that notion.

KB was long gone by then my guy. Cam was being talked up as an MVP candidate again when we were 6-2 before that hit. Sucks but that's it.

Actually rippadon is right about Cam's shoulder dude.

"The shoulder" happened that day, not in Pittsburgh 

The injury that resulted in the rotator cuff surgery happened that day. Cam was still slinging it in 2018. If you're arguing the Watt hit wasn't the final straw for that shoulder we'll just have to agree to disagree. No problem.

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

      By 52Beast · Posted

      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.
