You guys got your wish. That was the easy part... getting drafted. Let's see if he can put his money where your mouth has been.

I havent really been opposed to Cam, he just hasnt been my favorite.

I will acknowledge that, if there was a single player in this draft that could possibly turn this franchise around quickly, it's Cam. Do your thing kid!!!!

Cam Newton is NOT going to turn this franchise around 'quickly'.

He has a LOT to learn, our schedule is brutal, and there is less to gain by throwing him in too soon than there is to lose. Clausen was thrown into the starting position too soon and under less than favorable conditions and couldn't pull it off. Cam is an 'investment' that needs to be brought along and not played until ready. Aaron Rogers sat 3 years before taking over and winning a super bowl. If Carolina succumbs to the 'instant gratification era with Newton, he will be a BUST.

It's time to stop saying "huggers" and "haters". He's a Panther now. Let it go.

I wont argue that, I used it to classify all the guys clamoring for Cam just get him, without acknowledging other needs/faults.

He does have the potential to be great, will he? Thats up to him. Looking at other top QB's drafted recently, they have made immediate impacts on their franchises, we could expect him to do the same. I dont think we would have picked him if the staff thought he was a 2 or 3 year project.

I did not think that Cam was the best option due to his vast learning curve, but now that he is drafted.. I am looking forward to all the posibilities that he will open up for our offense. I hope he is everything that our FO thinks he can be. At the very least, panther football will be extremely exciting to watch.

Its going to be a bigger Vickish version of Pickles. Wait and see. I've got my I told you so ready. Anyone who says.. give Cam more than 1 year to be what he needs to be... what about Clausen. Dont get me wrong I dont like Clausen either, but I am really upset we drafted Newton #1 overall. I will support him, but he doesnt make us better. He makes us worse right now... I've never heard every one of the analysts saying we made an awful decision going with him #1 overall. Im not buying it. Im going to Support him, but I dont like it at all. I hope he does what he has done the last two years to the NFL if we play this year. Lets get to work.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      You guys remember when the narrative on here was that Bryce would be chronically injured in the NFL due to his size and Anthony Richardson would be super durable due to his? You remember when the narrative was that Bryce was physically incapable of throwing a ball further than 20 yards in the NFL? You remember “I’ll stop complaining when he throws for more than 200 yards and looks like an NFL quarterback”? You remember when 60 sacks was his fault and not the offensive line, slow WRs, and terrible scheme? Pepperidge Farm remembers. It will always be something for some people. Whatever insanity they come up with will be quickly dropped to move on to the next thing. Bryce could have an MVP Super Bowl winning season and they would complain that we can’t run the tush push with him. It will always be something.

      For the Panthers fans still low on Bryce and demanding that he be a top-10 QB this upcoming season: What stat(s) will you need to see? Not the vibe you want, but rather what does he need to be top-10 in specifically? Passing yards? Completion percentage? Win-loss record? PFF grades? EPA? CPOE? Asking because this was asked before and... well... it ended up that the folks down on him didn't care about the numbers as much as they cared that they just couldn't get passed his size regardless of how he performed. It would be nice to get a straight-forward answer to that without the usual deflection and redirecting.
