Re-visting a "Cam will bust" article

This is simply amusing to read now, especially in hindsight, to realize how wrong people can really be. I never saw this article before the draft, but after reading it I literally lol'ed.

I think we should hold this guy to it:

Cam Newton is a sure-fire bust. I am so certain of this that if he is the Panthers' starting quarterback in 2016, I will buy a Cam Newton jersey and stand in the stadium parking lot in my underwear when the Panthers come to Tampa Bay and hold a sign proclaiming that Auburn rules over Florida and Carolina rules over Tampa Bay.

Also, this was my favorite line:

In five years, when The Golden Calf of Bristol is leading Denver into the playoffs and Cam Newton is riding someone's bench, remember this article.

Okay....

He's only led his team to 2 wins so how has he not proven to be a bust? Get this dreadful team to 0.500 then we can talk.

Besides his very first game as a pro, the combined records of the team's Cam Newton and the Panthers lost to:

20-8.

Of those teams, two have won the Superbowl in the past two years, one was in the NFC Championship last year, and the other was 13-3 and won their division. Dreadful team??? The schedule has been BRUTAL...A bunch of close losses to playoff experienced, veteran teams. What else could you ask of a rookie? He gave the extremely young Panthers a chance to win every game but in the end, experience won.

Have you watched a single game this year?

I'm prepared to switch my allegiance to whatever team most resembles Reeses Cups.

Congrats. You are now a Raiders fan :eek:

Cowboys had baby Ruth with this tagline.

Like the Cowboys’ fanbase, it serves classic tastes, but it’s mostly made up of nuts.

Jets were Jawbreakers with this...

You get a lock of mouth crackling for not a lot of payoff.

    • Yeah the only way current set up is fun is if every year a different tiny school builds a super team and makes a run. You just need 1 rich guy to say you know what would be funny, if I drop 30 million and my school has a shot at a national championship.   They won't ever do it but put some sort of tiered salary cap in place and sign them to 4 year deals. You can only transfer up or down tiers no lateral moves because mean ole coach at texas doesn't play me enough so I'm going to Tennessee. So a player at prairie view can transfer to texas and get paid more or a player from UNC can transfer to UNCG because he isn't getting playing time. If a guy is transferring "up" he can get a salary bump if the team has salary cap space. A guy transferring down has to stay at the same salary as he signed his 4 year deal for so the lower tier team would have to have the cap space to sign him. It would stop the money chasing for lateral moves but allow guys who improve massively at lower schools to make more money as juniors and seniors and hopefully keep more guys in one place because the contract is for 4 years.
    • Bryce youngs first starts for 3 years   51 of 103 49%     153 yards avg 6 ints 2 tds   But this is the year he turns it around
    • His third year was worse than Bryce's third year, significantly so.  And he had a game where he threw for 120 yards, two inteceptions, and had a fumble.  He had multiple games where he threw for more int's than td's.
