Is it wrong that I actually like Cam?

The guy looks like he is playing a video game out there each and every week...I couldn't hate him at Auburn and I can't hate him now. I think his kid like personality is much more genuine than Favre and it's just fun to watch him play. It doesn't hurt that I have him for fantasy. :cool:

No, I'm a fan of Drew Brees anytime he doesn't play us, and then it becomes more of a hate/respect thing.

I actually tend to like a lot of players from other teams, because I long ago realized that appreciating good and talented players, and good teams, doesn't take away from my Panthers fandom. It helps me keep perspective on elements and skills I'd like to see at work on my favorite team. I'm going to love it when Cam distills Brees' ability to papercut a defense and makes it his own :)

daren is always fun to watch. I still remember that PR for a TD against the Colts in 2008(I think? maybe it was 2009). either way, someone on another forum had some in depth explanation on how Rivers losing sproles is the primary reason for his regression this season. pretty much said Sproles made Rivers look a lot better than he actually was.

it's ridiculous how many weapons brees has fuuuu

I will ask you this, does Brees rising int totals in the past 2 seasons concern Saints fans at all? it's not normal for QB's to suddenly throw back to back 20+ pick seasons(although Brees isn't there yet, he's on pace).

no. a lot of him really aren't his fault. for ex. ronde barber jumped a hitch pass this week but our WR didn't break fast enough to make the grab. he also gets a lot of balls tipped and in all honestly the complexity of our offense can cause for confusion on routes which = picks.

      Thielen was a "dawg" like Dan Morgan likes to say. And they replaced him with puppies.  The analytics are probably saying this is more targets for younger receivers they are hoping to develop, specifically the first round pick from 2025. The eye test is going to show a very inexperienced group of WRs that are going to have some serious growing pains, for a 3rd year QB who has not yet proven to be the guy going forward.  It's crazy how in the literal first game of his NFL career, Cam Newton showed everyone he was a star QB and there was never any doubt about that. It almost didn't even matter who was around him, although he definitely had a serious lack of talent at WR for most of his career. Bryce is going into his third season and there is still a ton of doubt, and who is around him is seen as crucial for him to have success. I don't like it.

      Everyone says AT was old and slow but the one thing he could do consistently was get separation. That takes skill and it's been a huge issue in our WR for years. And while Moore may be a great locker room guy and our WR coach may be a 12 year vet, he's not playing in the game. Vets like AT do what they do because they can see things others don't and exploit it. The DB interview I mentioned before was with Stephon Gilmore after his DPOY season. He was pulling the younger DBs aside showing them things you wouldn't even think you'd be able to tell from the way the receiver was standing.  Seeing what a DB or LB is biting on in game that can give you that half step advantage is huge and we don't have that experience in our WR group right now and I think it could end up hurting us. None of our receivers have lined up against NFL corners successfully on a regular basis. Having someone that can walk over and give you a tip to get a half yard separation can be a difference maker.

      We only fielded about 4 NFL calibre players on that unit last year.
