Chris Weinke talking Cam on ESPN2 (ESPN 32)

Ok I'm sure I missed a lot. I stopped typing this paper I'm working on to give a brief summary for those that couldn't watch:

* Cam's mental capacity is bigger than what people give him credit for.

*He met Cam right before he won the Heisman and his dedication and desire was evident then. He is even keel.

*Watching him play he was most impressed with his footwork and him throwing from the pocket.

*Level of intensity was different in the preseason and regular season. He performs well when the bright lights come on.

*Praised the coaching staff on how well they worked with Cam

*It doesn't take long to see he has a certain presence when he walks in. He has an outstanding work ethic, and he gained respect from his teammates because of it as soon as he came in, which gave him a lot of confidence.

*He wants to win and is willing to do anything to get it done.

Chris Weinke - the savior of the Panthers.

Irony at it's finest.

No joke...I'm also still in a little bit of shock that Cam was one yard away from the Panthers all-time passing yards in a game mark of 423 yards held by Weinke.

I guess his failure as a QB blocked my memory of that game....

Isn't it funny how those around Cam has to keep speaking of his intelligence and work ethics simply because the media acting as if it's hard to believe that he actually can be....Hmmmm, I wonder why?:leaving:

Unfortunately, this tendency isn't going to stop with Cam Newton. gonna take time for this to change, if it even does in our lifetimes.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
