One thing Cam needs to do when he runs

He needs to stop all of that unnecessary juking. There was at least three times where he could have powered his way to moving the chains, but fell short everytime because of that juking, causing him to fall flat on his face inches short of a first down. Cam, when you see the first down marker, run straight ahead and get the first down!

I dissagree. That juking as you call it is him avoiding power shots. I don't want Anyone getting a clean hit on my franchise qb and if that what he's got to do to not get hurt fine. See if you can make someone miss to get the first but dont go payton hillis. The kid already has a sore shoulder don't want that turning into separated. Point is if u can make someone miss and pick up the first on a broken play great. if not live fo fight another day.

I understand that, but if you look at the tape, he jukes a lot of times before the defender is even in his immediate area. Most of the time, he falls flat on his face because of it, probably because his body size can't handle the change of direction. It's just embarrasing to watch at times when he falls flat inches from the first down marker. Look at The Golden Calf of Bristol. Cam should take some notes from him in the running area.

I would agree about 90% of the time; But, in a game where nothing is getting done of offense and you NEED to get first downs just to get anything going, it is disappointing to see him slide down, like, one yard from the first down when if he had just ran straight ahead he would have had it easily. I know he did that at least once that I specifically remember.

Also, someone needs to teach him to slide. He looks like a floundering bull when he goes down intentionally.

i've never once been embarrassed watching our QB try to make plays

i'm more embarrassed by the fact that he has to do damn near everything by himself tho

Are you COMPLETELY insane?

Under no circumstances do i want my Franchise QB "powering" his way to being tackled. That is a great way to see him end up on IR.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
