In Just a Few Hours...

[CRA]

No way in hell Cam starts this season for the Panthers.

No coach in his right mind would do that. Waaaaaaayyyy too much work to do.When/If he catches on however I like the lineup a lot. If he can make the jump he will be a real game changer for sure

not the entire season, but he could easily start late.

The Golden Calf of Bristol is a prime example.....The Golden Calf of Bristol looked just as good as Bradford late in the year.

jimmy clausen started 10 games because no one else could stay healthy.

sooner or later people will come to grips with the fact that it was never carolina's intent for clausen to see the field...despite the drama the media cooked up over the offseason.

Matt Moore was benched in week 2 in a WINNABLE game for Clausen. Clausen was then given the start week 3.

The facts don't mesh with what you claim imo.

The best expierence is game expierence...

I agree, but only to a certain extent.

No matter how smart he his or how motivated he might be to prove his detractors wrong, I think it's nigh impossible for him to be ready to run that offense against come Sept. 11 against the Cards. Couple this with the fact that the labor dispute could easily drag on for awhile, putting Cam Newton on the field becomes a serious risk from my view.

[Jackofalltrades]

According to Moose Johnston and Tory Holt, who played in the same/similar offensive system it requires precision passes and Moose actually thought Clausen was better equipped.

So I don't feel too good about Newton in an offense that demands high accuracy.

[nosuchthingasapanther]

Thats true he was kind of forced in. But he was so called pro ready.

But you cant tell me they then want to see what Clausen had in him.

i'm not buying it.

keep in mind, clausen didn't stand out in OTAs, training camp, or practices...and as much as people hate fox for holding back players (rookies) he knew clausen wasn't ready. he didn't need to see him in games to know jimmy wasn't going to carry the team.

Thats rite Matt Moore did struggle. He didnt play as well they thought he did coming off the year before last. He might get a chance to play this year. I believe we go into camp with Moore Jimmy and Cam.

If you consider 50% completion rate as good as 60% then you might be right.

[carolinarolls]

He has tooo much to learn guys. I get it. There are some big time cam fans here and I understand he feels himself that he has a lot to prove.

This is just a huge jump for even the most intelligent of athletes. He may start late if everyone else sucks ass again but I hope for our sake and 50 million dollars that he holds the clip board all year at the very least.

If this is what you believe, why don't you advocate for the Panthers to trade for The Golden Calf of Bristol and save a bunch of money and pick up a DT? Foxy would send him packing in a heart beat.

winnable?

maybe you need to rewatch the game.

btw, let's not ignore the fact that moore suffered a concussion in the season opener against the giants and had limited practice for the bucs game.

with the way moore played against the bucs, it's possible he came back too early.

Tell that to David Carr.

[GotSwag?]

Absolutely love the potential of that offense. Its going to be a diff feeling now that we have a QB that can beat you with the run or the pass. Cam will fit in very well with the vertical offense Rivera wants to install and the running backs that we will have.

Not only Cam, but Shockey will change this offense as well IFF he can stay healthy.

Im starting to sound like a huge Cam supporter. Whats happened to me? I think ill be pissed if we dont get him now.

[Mother Grabber]

Agree, Fox/Davidson would have no idea what to do with a guy like Cam.

The only position on Offense that Fox understands is the fullback.

[nosuchthingasapanther]

Tell that to David Carr.

funny you should mention carr...

i just saw a piece on nfln, if the texans knew their oline couldn't protect carr they would have never put him on the field.
