Arron Rogers.

If Jimmy lights it up you let Cam sit and learn. You hold on to him as long as you can because with every passing month the game slows down that much more.

Beyond that, with the rookie salary structure there is no pressure to rush him into the fire. He can sit for a few seasons without breaking the bank.

Way different scenarios...Brett Favre was 37...Jimmy Clausen is 23 and can play for another 15 years...

My point wasn't how many candles go on the cake.

We've all known for years that QBs that had a chance to spend a season or 3 holding a clipboard are always better off. Give Cam that chance. Let him watch a successful QB run an offense and let him learn. With his rookike contract there is time and cap space to allow for it.

So if Jimmy lights it up, embrace the opportunity to groom our next QB and make the decision to play Cam or move on when we have to decide on that 5th year option on his contract.

So you move on with nothing instead of getting great value (as proposed in this hypothetical scenario)....didn't we already do that with Peppers...

Trading Newton is so ridiculous..

Not only noone would give you a first round because if you are ready to trade Newton for a first rounder you know something they don't and so noone will deal with you.

Anyway Newton is a Carolina Panthers QB, speaking of trading him after 2 weeks make you look like an hamburger eating surrender monkey.

Give this kid a year and let him play at time, then we will speak about him next season.

What the hell is a hamburger eating surrender monkey??? :confused:

We trade both of them so we can draft Andrew Luck, since Luck is going to be better than Joe Montana, Michael Jordan, Mickey Mantle, Wayne Gretsky, Frank Sinatra, and Al Pacino combined.

Oh wait, that was the conversation on this board 6 months ago.

Wait this thread is about trading Cam when Jimmy lights it up this year. Do you honestly think that if any QB, not just Jimmy, puts up the kind of number in the OP that any team would trade them? Regardless of who is sitting behind them? WOW

Absolutely. Cam Newton is the future of this franchise. Clausen has the opportunity to become a Kevin Kolb. The difference is that the Panthers won't pay a backup QB with starting credentials $10mm+ a year when Clausen decides to hold out for a better contract or trade in 2012. Again.. all assuming he is lights out and of course this thread has already jinxed that lol.

      Robert Hunt Practice Window Activated

      By MHS831 · Posted

      It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.

      Chad ‘Ochstradamus’ Johnson and Shannon Sharpe on Panthers

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.

      I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
