Worse, there’s a vocal segment of the African-American community prepared to emotionally cripple Newton with claims of racism at the first sound of legitimate criticism.

anyone who has listened to the callers to WFNZ 610 can attest to this. So bad at this point that they just hurry through the call.

Its particularly stupid when it goes into bashing Andrew Luck and asking why anyone could ever think Newton isn't better than Luck as a prospect.

I also read a QnA with Cam this morning, the editor obviously struggled trying to correct the grammar and keep the quotes intact. I'm hoping for the best, I really am. I don't want us to be the "durty pussy(-cats)" or whatever the equivalent to the Vick-led Falcons would be.

He smells like Vince Young, looks like a fit JaMarcus Russell and throws the ball as accurately as The Golden Calf of Bristol.

and told to run real fast when he played at Auburn.

:)

Has Whitlock been reading the Huddle forums? In the first few sentences, he's pretty much figured out what people that question the Cam first pick have had to endure.

This column was supposed to be about why Cam Newton isn’t on my draft board.

Yep. I wouldn’t draft the Heisman Trophy winner with the first pick in Round 1 or the last pick in Round 5. He smells like Vince Young, looks like a fit JaMarcus Russell and throws the ball as accurately as The Golden Calf of Bristol.

Whether it's mock drafts, analysis or player breakdowns . . . we have it here.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
