Cam's throw to Shockey was amazing!!

[chef17]

It wasn't an incomplete...Check ur video again. The ball was right at shockley's gut. It looked like the Steeler grab his hand, not knock the ball down.

The ball wasn't caught, but you say it wasn't an incomplete. Seriously do you know anything about football?

[footballisasport]

You have a seriously sick obsession with what the media says about Cam...you need to let it go, it's not healthy.

Hmmm....It's clear u don't know me. I observe the way all these athletes are treated by the media because we now live in a time where u're more bombarded with opinions based articles passing themselves off as legit news, than actual news.

Sadly, today's sports media is clearly filled with folks who are no longer afraid to show their baises. Why should I blindly accept what they say as fact?

I could sit and comment about the way the media treats Mark Sanchez or The Golden Calf of Bristol but this is the Panther's site...;)

[TheRealDeal]

This isn't a Panthers only talk about Cam Newton and the media site.

Seriously, try talking about football instead of how upset you are about what others said about football.

So you agree with me but call me clueless. smh

No, I called you clueless because of why you considered it to be a bad play. Because it "wasn't" caught? So it would have morphed into a "good play" had it been caught? Ridiculous.

Every completion is not a good play, just like every incompletion is not a bad play. Cam's pass to Naanee at the beginning of the drive wasn't a good decision. He had a defender in front of him and one behind him. Just because it was caught, doesn't mean it was a "good play". He lucked out, because the defender didn't expect the arm strength getting it pass him. Most of those are going to be picks, so how can it be a good play?

Same thing here. Whether it was a good play or not had zero to do with whether it was caught, to anyone who thinks. If Cam tried that 10 times, how many times would he get it to Shockey where he could make a play on it? If the answer is "most of the time", then it's a good play for him. If the answer is, not most of the time, then it's not a good play.

Actually I would consider every completion a good play. It may be a stupid play, but still caught so I would call it good.

The only reason that pass was close to being picked off was because the LB was hanging on shockey's back.

[koolkatluke]

Their is a pass that most QB throw called a back shoulder pass. Where the defender is runing with the wr and the QB with throw it short and near the sideline and let the wr stop short and catch it. I've see Rodgers make that kind of throw all the time. Where a defender has his back to him and the wr makes a play on the ball.

It was a safe throw the defender had his back to the play and the ball was thrown to the sideline where only Shockey can make the catch.

I agree, it will get ugly when he pulls a Josh Freeman 5 INT game and everyone is ready lynch the guy. I realize he's a rook, in that play,Cam was already on his way down. (which was the impressive part that he actually threw that far close to his knees, which is very awesome.) Why try to do TOO much? If it was a play off game or the super bowl, ok fine. But in preseason? That's my opinion on that.

i'd actually rather he treated every situation like it was clutch time in a playoff game.

it wasn't necessary, but the thing that sets the guys at the top from those who aren't is the willingness to go big at every opportunity.

with fox, the goal was to do 'just enough' to win the game. this regime has a desire to go overboard. like what mixon said in that other thread, these guys want to bury the other team. we are going to be seeing a lot of that kind of thing...i guess what you would call giving 110%.

not trying to argue. just stating why i like it and think it was appropriate.

[TheRealDeal]

:lol: that was not a back shoulder pass as it's used by most NFL QBs today.

I knew you would have somthing to say behind the safety of your computer. :seeya:I know it wasn't a back shoulder throw but it's the same Idea. Defender with his back turned away from the QB and a sideline throw where only the wr can get it.

[TheRealDeal]

Nope, completely different

[Zithers]

yeah when i saw that throw i almost poo my pants

most impressive incompletion i've seen in a long time

[koolkatluke]

Nope, completely different

No it wasn't all that different.

Isn't it funny when Jimmy threw that pick in the first game many convinced themselves that it wasn't mainly his fault. Yet, we're now assuming a throw made by Cam that clearly looked like it should have been called interference is now being argued that it could have been a pick and it was reckless of Cam. Are some of u folks for real?

As I've stated before, some of u have seriously rationalized ur hate for Cam as nothing more than concern for him and the team...REALLY????
