That's great for him to say. It's painful for me. I have been a long time Vikings fan and love Panthers fan too. 0-6 . I am over it though. Still love them! But, I thought we got out coached that game and knew it the first drive. Sometimes you have to grab opportunity by the throat.

I can deal with the loss in ‘03. I cannot deal with the loss in ‘15, so I block it out. We were supposed to win that shyt. Thankful Von validates that.
 

I remember at the start when the refs missed the call on the cotchery catch, my child’s mother looking over at me, saying the game was over. Refs weren’t going to let us win this game. She was right. That opener in 2016 was a travesty, and I still haven’t fully recovered after it.

Yeah I can agree with that. I also feel like much of the BS calls came from the refs and the league having bias against Cam. I think the fact that Cam wasn't an awe shucks try hard traditional QB rubbed the old crusty zebras the wrong way and chose not to protect him. Which just shows the lack of integrity on the official's part. Cam should have been able to be as unabashedly himself as he damn well please and you still call the game fair and square. 

And if anyone thinks thats a tin foil hat theory, just look at what the refs did when they finally made PI challengeable. They essentially boycotted it and turned down every challenge despite the clear evidence overturning PI. These people don't like being told their wrong because they get high on power trips. 

Believe me when I say the NFL didn't want a black QB that wasn't a Russell Wilson "uncle Tom" type of person being the star of the NFL. They just want their yes sir and be thankful for what you have type of minority QB.

I know I'm biased being a Panthers fan, but I don't think I've ever seen a QB get so few calls on penalty worthy hits in my life... The fact that Cam stayed healthy as long as he did is truly remarkable. I really wish he had a halfway competent staff while he was here 😩

Preaching to choir here. I've said the same thing for years. It's a real shame too. Cam deserved better and was ahead of his time. 

I loved Cam's confidence and his ego. He brought pride and arrogance to the Panthers for the first time. He made us feel like we deserved to be winners and not have to ask for it. Shame on the NFL for allowing such a piss poor display. I hope Cam speaks out on it one day.

Well said. I hope he does too.

It always amazes me how so many white guys (as a white guy himself) absolutely hated cam because he was a kid at heart. The dude literally gave his all every single play and should deservingly have celebrated every first day on after all of the hits he took. Yet, every old fart hated him because of it...

 

I will say... I teach and it amazes me how many kids loved Cam from 2013-2018ish years. It really sucks that TJ Watt broke his shoulder 😡

I literally said the entire time that the Broncos were so CLEARLY the worst team we had played all playoffs. They didn't have any semblance of an offense whatsoever and were led by the worst QB in the NFL that season. 

But, we had an inflexible coaching staff that couldn't stop beating their heads against the same wall.  And the absolute jobbing the NFL was giving us.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
