If you knew Newton would hit his upside

Physically, Newton is far more talented than Luck. If he reaches his potential, then he could be that game changer people oft refer to, something like what he did in college.

SO yes, I would prefer him over Luck, especially since Luck scorned us to finish his architecture degree. A degree I can assure you is highly useless unless you're extremely talented at it. NCSU has a highly lauded design school that offers architecture and I know many graduates of the program that cannot find a job and work in coffee shops and such.

Damn you LUCK. Bad Luck, bad.

Plus you didn't ask if people preferred a Newton who has reached his potential over a Luck who has reached his potential, so it would be a bigger risk at that point.

Boomshakalaka, I just logicKED yo asses.

If both lived up to there maximum potential newton would surpass luck. That said newtons floor is far lower than lucks.

This is kind of what I'm wondering. Do you guys in general feel like Newton's upside is higher than Luck's?

If you maxed out both players, you'd have an interesting choice but that's kinda like a Batman vs Spiderman type argument.

In that situation though I'd take Cam because I know we can since we have the first pick the year he's coming out.

Prep-time Batman is one of the most difficult heroes to beat.

Interesting question. I know people like to think I am a blind huggernfor cam but if Luck would have come out I would have been hugging him even more.

But if both maximized their potential I woulf prob go Cam becaue of his running ability. But like someone else said it would be like picking batman or superman

With Newton coming to town this week I wonder if the Panthers staff have locked away their computers?;)

Eh, I wouldn't worry, since he didn't steal the computer at Florida, he bought it from someone who had stolen it.

So unless they already have a thief amongst them who would be offering Cam great deals on laptops that he couldn't pass up, I think it'll be OK.

Can't lose with either one honestly feel like both have the potential to be one of the best young QB's in the NFL along with guys like Bradford, Freeman, Ryan etc.

Luck could be a more mobile Manning and Cam can't really be compared to anyone he's a freak of nature like a mix of a few QB's with his size, arm strength and athletic ability win/win. Would lie if I said It would be easy to pick one or the other.

      Games been a snooze fest of sloppy play

      The Charlotte Observer's Mike Kaye 2025 Carolina Panthers 53-gayman roster prediction spectacular

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      ESPN's David Newton: QUARTERBACKS (2): Bryce Young, Andy Dalton A preseason muscle injury to Dalton's right arm could force the Panthers to keep Jack Plummer if the issue gets worse, but that currently doesn't seem to be a concern. For the first time since going No. 1 in 2023, there is no question that Young is the starter after winning two of his final three games last season with 10 touchdowns (7 passing, 3 rushing) and no turnovers. RUNNING BACKS (3): Chuba Hubbard, Rico Dowdle, Trevor Etienne Selecting Etienne in the fourth round out of Georgia makes veteran Raheem Blackshear a likely cut. Etienne has shown in the preseason that he is a capable option as a runner, in addition to being a returner, which has been Blackshear's primary responsibility since 2022. WIDE RECEIVERS (7): Tetairoa McMillan, Xavier Legette, Adam Thielen, Jalen Coker, Jimmy Horn Jr., David Moore, Hunter Renfrow This is the most improved group on the team, so keeping seven initially makes sense. If the Panthers go with six it could make coach Dave Canales' favorite, Moore, expendable with Renfrow showing he's close to the level he played in 2021 when he made the Pro Bowl with the Las Vegas Raiders. Brycen Tremayne, who's had an excellent preseason, will be a tough cut. TIGHT ENDS (3): Tommy Tremble, Ja'Tavion Sanders, Mitchell Evans There is anticipation Tremble (back surgery) will be ready for the regular season after coming off the PUP list before the preseason finale, though he could still miss a game or two. Keeping him on the 53-man roster makes sense so she doesn't have to miss the first four games. OFFENSIVE LINEMEN (10): T Ikem Ekwonu, G Damien Lewis, G Robert Hunt, C Austin Corbett, C Cade Mays, T Taylor Moton, T Yosh Nijman, T-G Brady Christensen, G Chandler Zavala, G Jarrett Kingston Injuries to guards Lewis (strained shoulder) and Zavala (knee) plays a factor in keeping 10 instead of the nine predicted going into camp. The starting five returning from 2024 had a solid preseason, but the lackluster play of backups showed depth remains a concern. DEFENSIVE LINEMEN (6): DE Derrick Brown, NT Bobby Brown III, DE Tershawn Wharton, DE A'Shawn Robinson, NT Cam Jackson , DE Jaden Crumedy A shoulder injury that has kept fifth-round pick Jackson from making an impact means Crumedy could make it here. The biggest cut will be Shy Tuttle, who has 32 starts the past two years but little to show for it. Moving on from him will create $2.4 million in cap space that can be used elsewhere. LINEBACKERS (10): OLB D.J. Wonnum, OLB Patrick Jones II, OLB Princely Umanmielen, OLB Nic Scourton, OLB Thomas Incoom, ILB Christian Rozeboom, ILB Trevin Wallace, ILB Claudin Cherelus, ILB Jon Rhattigan, ILB Jacoby Windmon The release of ILB Josey Jewell (concussion protocol) at the start of camp required immediate attention, but Rozeboom has stepped up well. Depth remains a big question, particularly inside. Moving on from draft pick Bam Martin-Scott means he'll likely end up on the practice squad. It was time to move on from OLB DJ Johnson. Look for turnover beyond the starters here. CORNERBACKS (5): Jaycee Horn, Mike Jackson, Chau Smith-Wade, Shemar Bartholomew, Corey ThorntonJackson has played well enough at times to ease the concern opposite Pro Bowler Horn. Thorton's play during camp has been a big surprise, but the overall depth of this group means there likely will be turnover. SAFETIES (4): Tre'von Moehrig, Nick Scott, Demani Richardson, Lathan Ransom The big question is how long it will take fourth-round pick Ransom to replace Scott as the starter opposite Moehrig. Also, don't rule out another experienced player being signed. SPECIALISTS (3): K Ryan Fitzgerald, P Sam Martin, LS JJ Jansen Big-legged undrafted free agent Fitzgerald out of Florida State may have solidified his spot over Matthew Wright with a 52-yard field goal in the second preseason game against the Texans. The other two spots are solid, but Carolina likely will keep an eye out for dependable veterans who end up being released.
