I have no clue as to why people are bitching about Cam


Sam Mills Fan

Recommended Posts

With no OTAs and with a complex offensive scheme, Cam Newton is EXACTLY WHERE EVERYONE SAID HE WOULD BE. Flashes of greatness, especially with his legs, but a lot of hesitation/uncertainty when he drops back to pass simply because of the massive transition he's making from the Auburn offense to the Chud NFL offense.

I am right, right? Were people saying during the offseason that they thought Cam would tear things up with his arm during the preseason? I don't remember anyone saying. People kept predicting he was going to struggle early on and to be patient for the payoff down the road. So why is everyone in suicide mode today re: Cam? If you want to be in suicide mode for the team overall, fine, I understand that. But the freaking out over Cam in particular when everyone, including his biggest supporters like me, clearly said over and over he was going to struggle early on is something I don't get.

Agreed. people think this is the same offense we'll see when the season starts. No cam won't be just siting around in the pocket waiting to get sacked. You'll see a lot more roll outs screen passes and dump off. Notice the lack of d-lo and stew. This was not the season gameplan folks relax. All of our starters have still yet to play and to judge the whole team when more than 7 key players were not playing is unfair.

Also, it was just two days ago that Cincinnati fans wanted Andy Dalton cut and people were saying he was going to be out of the league in a few years. One solid game changed all that. It happened for him; it can surely happen for Cam too. Just wait a few months before you freak out people, JHC.

    • Why don't we just say they can shove the late round draft picks up their ass? If they want a player they will be starting at WR in Week 1, I want a MLB in return that we can start Week 1. Starter for a Starter Not Starter for a draft pick we'll be debating whether or not they should make the final 53 man roster in 2026.
    • Why?   No. This isn't a situation of a player we want to trade because we have no use for them.  He's our starting slot WR, our leader of the young WR room, Bryce's safety option the last 2 years who he has good chemistry with. If the Vikings didn't run into WR trouble, we'd never have been even considering trading him, so why in the world should we give him up for fair market value in a vacuum for Thielen and disregard what losing him off our roster will do for us this year? A 5th round pick in 2026 is a negligible draft pick, especially with this season being so make or break for Bryce and Canales.
    • The Vikings acquiring all these late round picks has me feeling like we're about to see another CMC situation play out here. Trade a player we really like for the equivalent of what we want for them on the draft pick chart, but because of a bunch of late round picks instead of the one pick value we actually want. Which will do the same thing in the end, nothing, because 6th and 7th round picks rarely work out to begin with, or we're just going to use them to move up 10 picks in the 3rd or 4th round to take another DJ Johnson
