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

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.

      First 4 NFL starts - Tyler Shough

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      If a backup QB comes into a game down by 3 scores, they're passing. It's probably going to be 4:1 pass to run. The stats are going to be skewed. It's not going to be an accurate reflection of an entire game plan from start to finish. Pretty simple stuff.

      if you are talking game production as the discussion, you basically are forced to remove them to even get in the realm of honest discussion.  Shough has a 2 pass 4th quarter game and a late 3rd quarter entrance game.  That will wildly distort the numbers if you are wanting to talk about what he has done in games.   and the generally narrative we talk about most QBs is their starts.  Because that what a QB is.  The Bryce gymnastics and gaslighting and way worse than the "hate" around here.

      Well I'm watching every game this season so it's the same football, same time frame. I see things differently than you do. I can't tell what your actual opinion is because lately it's been coming from Joe Person and others.  For someone who doesnt believe in stats you sure as poo seem to be hung up on them. And let's not forget, Jake was a practice squad QB, not the number 1 overall draft pick. They aren't even comparable in expectations of past performance or expected level of QB play.  I didn't even mention stats for the 1st 2 years with Bryce. That would be you. What he looked like from the 1st 2 years was that same QB with the same god awful mechanics making throws squared up to the line, not driving his passes, bailing out of the pocket too early, sloppy footwork on drop backs, hopping to get his pass over the line because he's not tall enough to actually throw over a defensive player. When things aren't perfect, he looks like that same awful rookie player. That's why I said you can't ignore past performance. You go back and look to see if he's still doing those things or if he's developing.
