He played like what he is - a rookie with insane potential. Rookies make rookie mistakes - even number one overall picks. I am seriously upset about the loss given that we basically beat ourselves but I remain excited about the potential for this team.

It is possible to be upset about a loss and still see the positives that came from it you know. Yes we have poo to work on but we are far from as destitute as we were last year and frankly I see this team laying it on some people later in the year.

[...] have said no numerous times.

I bet the women have said that numerous times too.

Joking.

I don't think you can blame Cam or give him too much credit. If we ran it more (and more effectively) he wouldn't have gotten the yards passing that he did (either week). But on the other hand I don't think you can blame him when we should've ran it at least once when we turned it over on downs.

Some of you guys act like we were in the playoffs last year instead of being the worst team in the league. Of course a lot of improvement is needed, but if you can't be encouraged by Cam's performance and two games where we were actually 'in it', you must be disappointed by life on a daily basis. Ask yourselves how we would have done so far with last year's QBs and Fox's offense.

I think Cam has the potential to be one of the best qb's in the NFL. I am pleased with the pick so far.

But 432 yards with only 2 td's and 3 int's is not a great game. Its not a terrible game, but its not great.

For a rookie playing in his second game against the defending Superbowl champs, it actually is great. The problem is that they're putting it all on his back right now when we need to be more balanced.

      You don’t even need 1b because Tepper is the only one foolish enough to wheel that deal.    Player wise? Jake’s elbow. JR and Pep getting sideways, no Carruth, Cam’s shoulder, Luke’s concussions, it would be a long list of stuff. You can take it down to certain plays in games. Fox chasing 2 point conversions in the SB would be on my list. RMJr slipping at the end of that same game was not helpful.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Ultimately this just amounts to heavy revisionist history. I mean you aren't talking to someone that just popped out the womb a week ago. I was here all throughout the predraft process. The overwhelming majority of the fanbase felt like this was a fine situation and the best situation for a rookie QB to go to compared to Houston for example. The hype for Young and our "rockstar" staff was off the charts. No one could dare speak cautious skepticism of his abilities or they would be neg repped into oblivion. Only after he had one of statistical worst rookie seasons of the last 25 years did we get this narrative now that his rookie season actually shouldn't count. Complete malarkey if you ask me.

      On the field? Since I guess it qualifies as multiple instances it might not count, but have the damn refs throw some flags on illegal hits to Cam's head in SB50. If that doesn't count, 1A. Cotchery caught it 1B. Kasey keeps that kickoff inbounds. Off the field? 1A. Team is sold to anyone but Tepper 1B. We have the patience not to mortgage the franchise on that Bryce trade. Stroudwpuldve been the better pick but he's not worth it either.
