Hates Cam at CAR. "Will totally implode at Carolina". We'll lose be 0-7 might not win any games. Blah blah.

Yes it's Colin Cowherd but that seems to be the feeling I get when listening to many pundents around the league - CAR is a small market franchise that has nothing to surround a QB and will throw a poor guy to the wolves and everything implodes. No one has ANY confidence we can develope a QB properly. We're going up against 3 potential Pro Bowl QBs in our division 2x every year. They'll pick us apart etc.

Part of this is b/c most around the league DON'T have respect for us or for alot of small market franchises in general that are fairly new. Part of this might be b/c the scenario I described above sounds familiar though (Clausen last year anyone??)

I believe the way to go is to somehow get some veteran (ANY veteran) that has some experience and let him start. If nothing else throw Clausen back out there so at least he can get another shot and KEEP CAM ON THE BENCH! For those that think we should start CAM immediately you are absolutely out of your mind. Unless you just want to ruin yet another QB you have to let him sit, mature and learn!

I believe I see his point on Cam getting destroyed here.

Cam flat out needs to sit for several seasons to learn to play QB at this level. On a team like Carolina he will not have that luxury.

Cam would be MUCH better off going somehwere and sit behind a seasoned vet.

Finally a thoughtful response...

Agreed. Buffalo would have been a good fit b/c they have Fitz he can sit behind.

Again he must sit for at least a good part of this season and learn. If not - oh man....

Cowherd's logic is flawed.....like always.

Yesterday he said he would put his paycheck on Newton being a bust for the following reasons.

Drafted by a team with a new coach

Drafted by a team with a defensive head coach

Drafted by a team w/ a weak WR corp

Drafted by a team in a tough division

That was it.

Well, if that is his sure fire way to tell you a QB will be a bust.....then his logic means he would have thought....

Matt Ryan, Mark Sanchez, Josh Freeman, etc. (ALL 4 points appled to them when drafted) would have all been busts....and those were guys he praised as recent success.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes.

      Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.

      Kinda depends how you look at it both were 3rd round draft pics.  Nico was nothing before stroud and tank came in with stroud.  If both were on the panthers would young have them doing well and starting or would their stats be low.  I really dont know the answer to that.  None of the panthers wrs have left and did well either but personally i feel neither of nico or tank would do much on the panthers.
