If you knew Newton would hit his upside

Like I said if both are going to develop into elite passers which is what you implied then yes' date=' Locker has the same ability to be a dangerous dual threat QB that Cam does. Is it really that hard to understand....[/quote']

I think locker is a bigger risk than newton. And saying he is going to be an elite passer is a long stretch. If were going to just be throwing random names out tyrod Taylor is goingto be elite because he is fast 2.

You implied that Cam had the potential to develop into just as great of a passer as Luck, that is asinine. I just assumed we were playing fantasy world where (insert favorite QB here) would always develop into an elite passer and the running ability was the X factor....

So newton in your mind can't be a great passer? What is it that luck possesses that newton could never achieve? What trait does luck have that no other quarterback can achieve for it would be asinine?

You have no idea what kind of NFL QB Andrew Luck will be. And hopefully it won't matter to the Panthers. Hopefully we will be in a position where we won't even have a chance to pick him.

Can I have the patent to your time machine since you've obviously traveled through time and discovered that Cam Newton will be a great NFL QB and "change the game". That must be what you're implying by telling me I have no idea what kind of NFL QB Luck will be....:D....

The ability to read defenses, look the safety off, put touch on the ball instead of just slinging it down field and throw a receiver open instead of just throwing to a wide open receiver to name a few....

I never said he would. I gave a theoretical way that he could help change the perception. Again that leads me to my second question.

What if they are both great yet neither are on our roster??

That can't be taught? It's not like newton had below average human intelligence.

I'll continue rooting for the Panthers but want out scouting department updating their resumes....

It's not all about intelligence, if it was there would be 32 elite QB's all from ivy league schools in the league....

Look I have nothing against Cam, I fully expect him to be the pick and I hope he does "change the game" I just have my doubts about him.....

Apparently front offices and GMs think so since he/will be a top ten pick if he isn't number one overall.

But those guys are fugging idiots that just bought the hype

Changing the game was something that was hypothetical and theoretical. I am not sure that anyone really believes it he will do that. But I don't close thw door on anything.

If he misses on changing the game and ends up just being a culpepper or a mcnair I will be okay with that. :p

    • I would heavily push back on the notion of Tomlin and Cowher inheriting "collapsed teams." From 1980 to 1991(prior to Cowher and after their Super Bowl victories) the Steelers experienced just 4 sub .500 seasons. In fact the winning percentage for those years was 0.505. At most that was relatively mediocre, something fairly akin to the pre-Tepper Panthers. From Cowher through Tomlin(1992 to Present) it has been the NFL's best franchise. 22 playoff appearances, 4 Super Bowl Appearances, 2 Titles, 15 times winning the division. In fact they have only experienced 3 sub .500 records in that 34 season span.  That isn't ever a scenario where rebuilding happens. It's constant and consistent retooling so that your franchise floor is always high. It's smart business decisions, exceptional drafting and quality personnel moves that create a situation where that floor STAYS high.  It was precisely BECAUSE we opted to go through a complete teardown and "rebuild" without any of that competence being in the organization at all that led us to where we are currently. A situation that will more than likely continue for well over a decade longer.  Long term successful franchises do not "rebuild." They are in a constant state of competent flux that sustains them through some leaner periods without ripping the foundation completely out that led to that success in the first place. 
    • Houston's OL sucks but Stroud has also definitely regressed. Similar story to Jayden Daniels in Washington. Both guys looked like future MVPs as rookies but sustaining success in the NFL at QB is hard. The more tape there is on you for opposing DCs to study the harder it gets.
    • So I was curious and remember seeing a tweet but here are Young’s numbers vs Strouds number since that time  Stroud since week 3 2025. Bryce since coming back off the bench and playing in Denver
