I was trying to look for the podcast again. Basically he was saying Cam isn't ready and is only throwing 45% in preseason so far..granted its preseason. He had a few more points he mentioned as well. I was looking for others who heard it as well to fill in the blanks.

it's preseason.

it was his first start.

it was his second game.

he's still very green

right side of the line was nothing but backups.

he didn't have steve smith.

he was facing a pretty good defense (finished top 10 in passing D and rushing D)

panthers didn't game plan.

sooo...yeah...his results aren't going to be all that great.

Bradford's real coming out party was preseason Game 3.

I expect the same for Cam.

They are "gameplanning" but really thier biggest accomplishment will be rallying the team (and the fans) behind the franchise QB.

if you look at a lot of rookie QBs that started as a rookie, their "coming out party" was week 3 of preseason. for many, though, it was their first start.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By Panthers Addict · Posted

      I do think the rating is fair given how this unit hasn’t proven it with production. I understand you have to rank off production, not potential. However, our unit is also in a position to make this rating look foolish a year from now. We have 4 guys in the WR/TE room who all could legitimately take the next step this year, and catapult our rank. A guy under a lot of people’s radar after we took Tet, Jalen Coker. Mark my words, he will become the star of this room, and be the heir to Thielen.

      Exactly. You’d think 2-7 wins a year (in a 17 game season no less) since 2017 is going to keep us bottom tier. Every year we say the same poo like we haven’t been a bad team the past 7 years. Until we prove we aren’t a bottom dweller, that’s where we’ll stay ranked. God forbid we have OL injuries like 2016.

      Breakout 2025 Candidates

      What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
