Cam Newton looking better and better!

I know we're all upset about Luck, but trust me it's not the end all, be all. Now that I got that out the way I believe it's time to focus our attention elsewhere. We can either pick Cam or Fairley with the number one pick or trade down, but as the title suggest, Cam Newton is looking better and better to me.

I've always said I'd be ok with Newton if we didn't take/get Luck. He will certainly give some life to this cardiac cat arrest franchise that we are currently feeling... There is no way he's a lethargic Russell type or a mentally unstable Vince Young Type(who seems to be really bipolar or something)..

The other players in the draft really aren't going to give fans a reason to watch as much as Cam Newton would. I'd pull the trigger if I was JR.

Cam. This franchise needs some excitement. His type of ball will be so different than we usually play. I wanted Luck, but I'd take the chance on Cam. We need a coach to use him correctly though.

I'm guessing we'll draft something other than a QB though.

    • Disclaimer:  In June, I am usually optimistic.  In October, a policeman with a bullhorn is telling me that I have a lot of life ahead of me and to think about my loved ones as I gaze down upon him from my rooftop.   Having said that, I think our offense (down the stretch) was good enough to play KC and Philly tough.  So how many games would this offense have won if they played the entire season like they did in November-January and if they had a better defense?   If you could stretch the last nine games over an entire season and put a solid defense on the other side, I see 5 wins becoming 7 or 8.  Down the stretch, the Panther D surrendered 30 points or more in 5 of the final 7 games and managed to win 2 of those 5.  If they can win 40% of games in which their defense surrenders 30 points or more, then the math indicates, had that been the case all season, the Panthers should have won 6 or 7 games with their defense surrendering 30+ points.   This season, we are much better at WR (TMac, Renfrow, Horn, and I expect XL to be a lot better).  Bryce is confident and now a leader.    The Achilles' heel of the 2024 defense, the DL, seems to be very solid.  We got back Horn and Jackson on the corners, Smith-Wade is improving better than expected, we signed a stud Safety.  Derrick Brown returns.  While the D is not there yet, it is going to be better.   So if we ended the second half of 2024 playing at a level that should have produced 6-7 wins, better WRs and a better defense could result in 9 wins or more.
