Does Newton get it?

Golic, Wingo, and McShay didn't think he got it either.

Seems if you are a Camther fan, you think he obviously gets it.

If you aren't, you have questions about whether he gets it or not.

He got the question. It was Golic and co. along with the rest of the dummies that dont get Auburns offense. Whats better and quicker in the huddle "36" or "xslant,zright,49tdibberdabber,tyz72go"

I didn't realize all reality went out the window when we drafted him and it's all rainbows and unicorns now when discussing him.

Would you rather it be dark clouds and second guessing?? Those are what are commonly referred to as Cubs fans.

I would like reality. Extreme optimism is for girls soccer. I didn't know Cam's fans were as unable to deal with criticism as he is.

Wouldn't you like to get as real and as accurate an idea about Cam since he is now on your team as possible?

Weren't you mad when you were fooled by the hype around Clausen and no one told you what was really going on with him (If you knew who the Panthers were back then)? It was only "Finally our franchise has found us a Franchise QB we can build around!" "Jimmy should start from Day 1, he's the best QB the Panthers have ever had!"

If only there were more Debbie Downers back then like you. :rolleyes5:

The only "reality" there is are simple facts that you can actually draw on from his past.

When Cam faced extensive criticism from the media last year he not only did he continue to perform at a high level he actually elevated his game.

That's reality. The rest is just conjecture.

I thought we were done talking about his college career and were focusing on what he could do for us in the NFL?

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
