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

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
