I don't think enough is being made of what Cam Newton is accomplishing. With Tom Brady rewriting the record books every week, perhaps that's why Newton is being overshadowed, but this rookie doesn't blink. Newton kept his team deep into the game against the world champion Packers and proved that Week 1 was no fluke. Yes, he turned it over some and learned a lesson about Charles Woodson, but Newton was the reason the game was competitive in the first place.

Remember, the original idea was that the run game was going to support Newton and allow him to come along slowly, with DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart carrying the load. However, the Panthers rank 29th in rushing and Newton is their leading rusher through two games (Williams and Stewart are averaging 2.5 yards per carry). The quarterback is also completing an impressive 63 percent of his passes with consecutive 400-yard games.

Newton is doing things no other rookie quarterback has ever come close to, and Sunday he did it against the best and most complex defense in the league ... without his starting right tackle to boot. The wins will come, and the future looks bright in Carolina.

Wait till next season and see what happens.

We start winning, that attention meter will go waaaaaay up.

You wait. I only wanna wait until Sunday, thank you very much.

We're going 4-0 over the next 4 games then we will lose to Washington due to coming off the high of winning back to back divisional games. Win 2 more and drop on the road to the Lions....then we cruise into the playoffs for the rest of the season going 6-0 for the remaining games.

That's my script and I'm sticking to it until proven otherwise. Then I will readjust over and over until we are no longer mathematically eligible for play offs, at which point, depending how much I lose my sanity, I may decide to re-invent math ;)

    • 5 straight completions in the 4th quarter to get into the red zone and then score a stand up rushing TD and celly in one of the best defenses faces to bring the score within 1 possession against the super bowl champs is "stunned" to you?  
    • yes, if you read what I said - that was due to his record breaking 245 yard 4th quarter performance in garbage time when the Seahawks were already celebrating. If Bryce puts up big numbers in the 4th quarter, people like you are quick to call it garbage time stats but seem to get selective when other QB's do it because it doesn't fit your narrative.  also, I'm logical enough to admit that Drake is a great QB and his performance had a lot to do with his protection, play calling, and other aspects. The game does not fall completely on the QB. Just like how the Panthers were still in the game vs Seattle until Horn's penalty changed that. It is a team sport, so many factors, players, refs, coaches are involved and it only takes one thing to change the game. the obsession with Bryce is just nauseating at this point and if you pay attention on here, it's the same 10 users quoting and pieing each other. it's super weird and everywhere else you go, opinions on Bryce are trending upwards. the way the season ended, the vibe at the stadium, the performance, should have everyone excited about this next season. Idk, maybe I just look at life and my entertainment outlets differently than others.
    • Are we sure something hasnt happened to him because that seems pretty shitty to simply abandon this place
