Take the Cam Newton pledge...

TRD won't be able to get behind any or our QBs until he gets out from behind Matt Moore.

PS yes I realize bugging you over Matt Moore has become lame but I have nothing else to add :thumbsup:

Seems like the kind of thing Zod mentioned wasn't going to be allowed anymore.

Be careful...

I do hereby pledge that Cam Newton has my full support as the Carolina Panthers starting quarterback. The fact that I did has no bearing on my decision to live in reality and realize Cam is the biggest hope for a franchise QB that we have ever had.

In addition, I realize Cam will at times struggle, and promise not to throw him under the bus at any given opportunity. I understand that Cam is here under a multi year plan, and not a 6 week plan.

By accepting this pledge, your Matt Moore pledge started by some knuckle head last season is null and void.

If he starts, he has my support. I will go on record as saying that it would have been nice for JC to have this kind of support.

Also for the record, what I want more than QB play right now is OL and DL play. If the preseason games are any indication, it won't matter who lines up behind center. Color me severely disappointed by the big uglies so far

I support him as much as I supported Frank Reich, Kerry Collins, Steve Buerlien, Chris Weinke, Rodney Peete, Jake Delhomme, David Carr, Matt Moore, Jimmy Clausen...

Wow, we've had some really mediocre-to-awful quarterbacks in our history. I mean, I knew we did, but just seeing them in writing makes it soul-sucking.

I pledge my support to the TEAM. I disagree that Cam Newton is the biggest hope for a franchise QB. I do agree that he is the LATEST hope for a franchise QB. I will pull for him and earnestly hope for him to improve and develop into the QB we all hope he will become. I can not promise that I will not have an 'I told you so' moment at a later date, but I will do my best to ensure that moment is short-lived. I can promise that I will provide both praise and criticism of Cam Newton as appropriate but point out that criticism does not mean that one is not pulling for an individual. I promise not to heap undue criticism or praise on Cam, as well. Finally....I, by the way, did not take any Matt Moore pledge, either.

    • Agreed. This is why I believe we should get a veteran Inside linebacker. The market is prime to pick one up. 
    • My big issue with Mesidor in the 1st is that he's a 6th year college player who will be a 25 year old rookie. I mean, we're talking about a guy who's as old as some guys are when we're talking about second NFL contract. A literal man playing amongst boys. Will that translate when everyone else on the field is a grown ass man too? I get really nervous about these older prospects who blow up in their final year of college play. He's not quite XL level where XL did practically nothing before his final year but Mesidor's final year was definitely the anomaly. He went from solid college player who might get an NFL opportunity to being talked about as a 1st round prospect. That's a HUGE red flag for me.
    • Every player can't be a top 20 at their position. We have to get out of that mindset. The good key players at key positions will fill in the gaps for them AND help them improve over time. Bring in FAs that are good enough. Not the best FA at his position or a great player or even a particularly good player. Just an NFL level talent. The good key players that fill in the gaps should be acquired through the draft. That is why you get the best player available unless it's a position you already have a good key player there. Exception is if your team is on the cusp of having a super bowl team, and a few plays a game will actually make the difference. Then you chase the big time FAs to get you over the hump. You don't spend on big time FAs when you know you're 3-4 years away from competing. The cap and average length of NFL careers aren't built for that.
