To the "yes we Cam" people


Recommended Posts

He has gone home due to the lockout. He has a playbook to learn, and working out with teammates would help him learn that tremendously. He went home instead, using the lockout as an excuse. Unless I don't know the whole story, and I am sure someone who doesn't know the story either will jump in to defend his actions, this could be the beginning of the work ethic criticisms. Do you want to be great, Cam? If you all want to crown him because he won 14 games in a simple offense in college do so, but not in the name of the Panthers. He has done nothing for us yet.

I mean I could go on about him sitting on the beach reading his playbook, which is much nicer than sitting at home looking at his playbook but naaaahhh. I could make the argument that before he works out with teammates and because he doesn't have use to team facilities(film room) it would be more beneficial for him to learn the playbook and go over the things Rivera/Shula laid out for him. Then I thought whats the use of defending him? So people like you can tear down everything he does next week? He is a panther now. Go ahead an spew whatever you want in my opinion.

Wrong thread. Stop hatin on my boy, I was once a hater but now I'm on the train, because I'm a true fan and not a skeptic. Be a panthers fan or gtfo.

What I'm saying is that Newton does not have any ties to politics, keep it that way. Why relate a franchise player to a political failure? Doesn't make sense to me. Get a new slogan please.

I guess it depends on if you believe the yes we can guy is a political failure. Just because you or your circle of friends believe that doesn't mean everyone feels that way. To each his own. If it makes you feel better you can say Cam isn't a citizen and was born in Haiiti or something. Then you can spend the next 3 years asking for his birth certificate :biggrin5:

Would anyone else care to explain this thread?

Well, you see, the thread creator doesn't want Cam Newton associated with a political failure.

A political failure. You saw that part, right? The political failure part? I mean, he just wants you to know that he doesn't want Cam Newton associated with a political failure. That would be bad if Cam Newton, our new quarterback drafted with the top pick in the 2011 NFL Draft, was associated with a political failure.

    • BPA comes with the caveat of positional value and roster need included. Never let the latter two completely overwhelm the first, however. Our FO seems to lean heavily into "WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE POTENTIALZ!!!" as a fourth category and often it seems as the #1 overall pursuit. With as many needs as this roster has, I am not going to get upset over a real roster upgrade at WR versus some reach at EDGE or whatever other extreme needs we have. Overall, I want to see the roster get better. There is far, far, FAR more than one offseason of work left to get this roster into the top 10-12 in the NFL. That should be the goal. 
    • I would say we are more likely to get smoked by Tampa, blast Seattle and then perplexingly lose to Tampa again. 
    • In general, Dave Canales tends to target his TE's the least frequently of any position group(WR/RB/TE) during his three years of running an NFL offense.  However, if you notice this percentage has crept up over time. 2025 is the first year that TE has eclipsed RB in target percentage. Production has also gone up in 2025. This is a percentage of total output in each category. Canales has always used a very TE heavy offense. In fact, on average his offensive formations are 2 or 3 TE sets roughly 80% of all offensive formations. So, the question may be, with this uptick in total TE output, could an elite or top tier TE make a significant impact? I believe there is some evidence this may be the case. Here are a look at TE snaps and Cade Otten specifically. These are the snap percentages for all rostered TE's in every Dave Canales offense. The bolded cell is Cade Otten's whopping 96.46% of total snap counts in the single year he was in the Dave Canales offense in Tampa. This was overwhelmingly his career high. His production was higher with less utilization in 2024, however.    In conclusion, while I don't anticipate ever seeing a top 5 producing/Pro Bowl caliber TE performance in a Dave Canales offense, there does appear to be some evidence that an actual upgrade in our TE room would actually lead to increasing overall offensive efficiency. I think Otten's utilization rate does indicate that the splitting of time between our relatively even TE group would cede significant snaps if a far superior option were available. I believe this is an area we could(and should have this past offseason/draft) made a more concerted effort to get a dynamic TE threat, after the apparent failure that J. Sanders appears to have been.
