What is better for Cam's chance at stardom


Recommended Posts

I've been getting flamed on another post...I'm assuming it's your turn.

But to answer your question, he should logically sit for a year but with my heart, I want him to start day one. Huge Cam fan here and don't care who knows it.

I think he should sit and play the later half of the season. He going to have to play anyway because we got to see what we can get out of him. I dont want our team to be in a position were we have different QB playing ever week.Once Newton get the job he has it for good.

cam's stardom? seriously? that is what is important?

i guess if you are a fan of the player first, i guess it's understandable and welcome aboard the bandwagon.

but as a panthers fan, i don't care about anyone's "stardom". i just want to win games.

i liked cam the most in this draft because i thought he would be good for the team and help them win. how he is perceived doesn't really matter to me all that much as long as he helps this team win. thats all that matters.

you concerned about his stardom? winning games...thats how he's going to do it. doesn't matter when that starts, just as long as it does.

meh...

Yea and if you take the right steps with the guy you took #1 overall at the QB position you will win a lot of games. Don't get your panties in a bind, we're just talking football.

I want him to come in and run some plays and have a set right off the bat assuming that there is a better option in Anderson. Otherwise the best choice for the Panthers is to put the best guy out there day 1. If that is Newton then let him learn right away. If he can sit back and learn from a better option who knows the offense then I am fine for him to do that.

But to sit him protecting him while someone is awful makes no sense at all. Based on the last 5 years there is not a clear precedent to suggest that playing or sitting is more detrimental or helpful than the other.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
