It IS the beginning of something great. And I typically don't like to play the "disrespect" or "under the radar" card...

But, to have these many people getting paid to analyze football and declare OUR QB to be a project, yet, he comes out and performs the way he did. Yet, these same guys continue to troll on national media outlets... That's just too much disrespect for me.

But, ultimately, it doesn't matter what they say. We know what we have, and we're gonna surprise some people this year... Just would appreciate it if people would man up nowadays.

Thank you! People act as if someone talked poo about their own family or something. And I will remind folks Cam IS going to have some really shitty outings that is how it goes.

And although I am really happy with what I saw yesterday, it was ONE game, his first game. Lets see how he looks in 10 years before anointing the kid :-)

Respect isn't given I.e to a kid that has tons of ? around him coming out of college, from a crappy college system and with a history of dual threat QB's failing in the NFL.

Respect is earned...OVER TIME. Not after one game. Now I have seen many media give him props so they gave him what he EARNED....yesterday.

And I gotta ask, why do you folks still give a poo what anyone in any media say?

Personally I would rather just kick ass, take names, win superbowls and not give a poo what anyone else outside of the Panther nation has to say.

I usually feel the same way, but I have to disagree with the analysis of him coming out of college.

How many times have you seen a player come out of college with national writers tweeting just a portion of what they said from a much larger interview in order to completely trash his character? Or have national writers putting stuff out there like "he's fake, his smile is fake."

You have guys like Hoge talking out of their ass and still refusing to give Cam credit for what he's doing.

What this means to me? It's not business, it's personal. These members of the media have made it a personal matter. Many of them have insulted him as a person, and therefore, have insulted me, as this is MY team and that's MY QB (*T.O. crying face*). But seriously, I take these as personal attacks, because they've attacked a player on my team, unprovoked.

For whatever reason, Cam is a guy that polarizes people. Add to the media stuff that half of this community went retard when drafting him became a possibility... I've never seen so much unwarranted "hate" on a guy that has done nothing but shown a commitment to be great and make amends for past mistakes.

It pisses me off and people should have to answer for talking reckless.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.

      No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By strato · Posted

      Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
