People want Cam to fail, I really don't know what's with the hate towards Cam.

I haven't seen anybody saying they want him to fail. The poll wasn't asking who you want to succeed but who do you think will. A rookie RB is way more likely to look great than a rookie QB.

and you're surprised because...?

i guess i coulda said surprised rather than saying that i found it interesting

I'd pick ingram too. I sure want Newton to be the opposite but rookie RBs can have phenomenal seasons while it's considered acceptable for a rookie QB to have a rating of 70.

the poll was for their careers, not just rookie season. maybe people voting couldnt distinguish the two either.

Any article I see online about Newton is filled with hate comments.

I'll probably catch a lotta heat for this but fug it...

I believe that Marc Ingram may be the second coming of Emmit Smith...

My logic tells me that Ingram will be better...

My heart says, no FUGGIN way, Cam will be the best QB in NFL history...

My logic wins this battle... I hope that Ingram busts though, and Cam supersedes even his own expectations that he places on himself.

Time will tell...

P.S. It's good to be a fan... But I'm a firm believer in... Just because you're a fan doesn't mean that you have to be blind.

ingram is going to be phenomenal, it sucks the saints picked him

especially against small weak DLs.....which until we prove otherwise we got. We desperately need to improve at the DT spot and you can't count on rookies to help right away.

      fug the HATERS

      Going from the 32nd to 27th ranked QB is a huge achievement indeed.

      Bryce Young is the first Panthers QB to throw for 20+ touchdowns in a season since Cam Newton in 2018.

      I do expect the offense to fall back to earth next year if everything stays the same.  It is kinda like how the Panthers and even now the Chiefs won in the past.  Winning many close, coin flip games.  It never lasts from season to season usually.

      I'm sold on the NFL being fixed.

      Biased is one way of putting it. The NFL is an entertainment product in the strictest legal sense. Although I might yell it out on game days, I do not believe the games are outright “rigged” meaning there is one team that is going to win no matter what happens. It’s impossible. There’s too much variance in the game that can prevent a truly rigged game from happening unless there was cooperation from many parties involved. What I am thoroughly convinced happens is that the NFL and referees “manage” the games towards certain outcomes. And that is done primarily through referee crew choice however I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s more going on behind the curtain.  The NFL uses the officials statistical tendencies to call penalties is to keep games close to drive user engagement. For example, If a crew tends to call more false start penalties, and there’s a game between a heavy pass offense where the NFL would like to manufacture a close game where it might have potential to be a blowout, then they’ll assign a crew that will slow that offense down and keep the game close.  There is an insane amount of marketing and now sports betting money that is married to the NFL economic ecosystem. To think this whole system is fair when the referee union has no outward accountability structure for poor performance is just naive. It’s closer to the WWE than outward appearances suggest, but it’s not a fully scripted outcome either. So for those who say “stop watching” if you don’t want to watch a “rigged” game, it’s an entertainment product. You can still be entertained by it, even if it’s not as fair as a truly merit based sporting event.
