Even if he sucks, it's gonna be hard not to like him

Newton’s focus right now is not on money, but rather proving to his teammates he's the right guy to lead this team.

He already has veteran wide receiver Steve Smith convinced he has the skills to play.

When asked what he thinks of the 6-foot-5, 248-pound kid quarterback, Smith simply replied, “Rave reviews.”

The two worked out several times before the start of training camp and got to know each other on a personal basis. They often exchange text messages. And while Smith ultimately said he chose to stay because that’s what his family wanted, some close to him say Newton’s presence ultimately convinced him to stay in Carolina.

“Man, I don’t know what I did, but it worked,” Newton said, flashing that million-dollar smile. “I was going to have to call all of the fire marshals in the state of North Carolina before he was going to get out of here.”

      Do You Agree With These Excuses?

      By Saca312 · Posted

      Extrapolate that with every QB for that matter. I guarantee you there's quite a bit of missed opportunities and yards left on the field for everyone. Many NFL QBs deal with WRs not putting in A+ effort, subpar o-line play and other deficiencies. The great ones are able to rise above these issues and create opportunities for plays. Guys like Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes can both play in and out of structure, as well as find ways to get yards when things break down and mask mistakes by throwing guys open, creating opportunities from nothing, etc. Bryce Young has only shown he's able to make things happen when the rest of the team picks up his slack. Very rarely does he create those opportunities himself. When this is a consistent pattern year after year with Bryce where he shows up lackluster, it's a concern. This is year three and he should be elevating the team as a first overall pick this franchise traded up for.  He was far from elevating anyone against JAX. In fact, he needed others to elevate and create for him. Excuses may be fine for a rookie, but this is year three for the first overall pick. Not looking good so far.

      I think the worst issue is coaching. Countless bad snaps, XL not getting his feet in or trying on runs plays, our centre being down field when he didn't need to be. All seem to be from poor coaching for me. I believe Canales is to soft to rip the players a new one when the fug up. Plus I honestly believe that Canales is slow getting his plays in giving Bryce less time to diagnose and adjust to the defence. Don't worry I could of head butted Bryce for that fumble and the 4th down throw aways but the other plays are explainable to me

      No We have been making excuses for him for 3 years, and we have gave him a hundred chances  Bryce is a bust, and we need to cut him now and stop wasting everyone's time
