It's amazing how much hate Cam Newton still gets...

...from callers on Charlotte sports talk radio. I don't know if it's because so many other fan bases infest this city and just hate because they are asshole transplants, or if it's because our fan base is just totally misguided? It's freaking pathetic.

I think it's partially the fan base, as well as the hate he's still getting from the Auburn scandal.

Haters gotta hate.

Maybe they are afraid that he will lead us to a superbowl? There are very few real fans who have anything bad to say about Cam. He & Beurlien are the only NFL caliber Qbs this team has ever had.

Delhomme did good things for the team, but in his case it was the same as The Golden Calf of Bristol is experiencing in Denver...Foxy's commitment/insanity to stick with the run game is paying short-term dividends, but will not end in a championship.

Go Panthers & go Cam!

I think the Huddle is misguided. I don't think people are hating Cam Newton. I think most people not so obsessed with him can see he's making a lot of game-costing mistakes and it's mainly been the offense that's dropped the ball in the end.

People will stop criticizing him when he leads our team to wins and starts playing the game better. It's that simple. When we win everyone will love him. But most people aren't so damn up his ass that they don't know losing 6-7 close 4th quarter games when your offense has more tries than anyone else in the league isn't the QB's fault and the offense. Or when they see so many things he clearly does wrong.

Just people here. Dudes who expect people never to criticize him think it's hate. But in reality, it's just straight talk. And it also comes with the territory of being the #1 draft pick. And he brings a lot of poo on himself because of the things he says.

He'll be fine if he learns. He can't get better without acknowledging, being shown, or told what he's doing wrong in the first place.

Criticism is fine, it's the NFL. But I still hear a lot about his vocabulary, his mannerisms on the sideline, the f*cking towel on the head bullsh*t, his supposed inability to lead. It's a damn shame.

Unless you are winning majority of your games... fans on local call in shows tend to find anything to criticize a player for... Even A-Rod had to deal with some in Greenbay until he truely proved himself. Heck when I was in Atlanta Matt Ryan started his career strong, but that dude was getting blasted in Atlanta left and right.

Most people calling in are not gonna be your resonable fans who are content with things... it's usually more extremist either one way or the other. But call in callers should not give you the temperature of the fan base as you don't get as many objective callers.

      Greg Cosell: Bryce Young is a complimentary piece

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      As far as elite/elevate talent QB’s It’s Allen Mahomes Jackson and Burrow that’s it.  Then we have tiers and those can be debated all day Dak is a good QB but I know this board would want him out of Charlotte if he was the QB here. 2 playoff wins in 10 years. Justin Herbert no playoff wins. Threw 4 interceptions in last years playoff game. 23 TD passes last year. 20 the year below and 25 the year before that. This board loves stats without context and these stats aren’t saying they’re much above complimentary  Kyler Murray isn’t good. I’m not sure how he made this list.  Caleb Williams, Trevor Lawrence both benefiting from some real good offensive coaches right now. They’re both complimentary pieces until proven otherwise  I like Jordan Love. Always have. I wanted to draft him but he isn’t a superstar.  CJ Stroud hasn’t been much better than Bryce after his rookie season. After that Bears game year 2 his numbers very similar to Bryce I will say I think Drake Maye is well on his way to becoming the next top tier QB if I had to pick one from this entire list. I’d also say Baker Mayfield is a damn good QB and I’d take him over most of those guys not in the elite category  Now if you want to debate tools and which QB’s possess tools to put them in higher tiers that’s a completely different discussion. Most QB’s on your main list all have those physical tools that will keep you thinking he’ll become the next top tier QB. They’ll sprinkle in a “wow” play or two a game. Bryce will never look that way. Young’s game at its peak will physically always look different and I think that’s where most people struggle when it comes to seeing how Young’s can be successful in the league  All QB’s need a team around them. I think the Bills are failing Josh Allen much like the Panthers did Cam. Beane and McDermott using same blueprint with Bills team. Josh Allen hasn’t had much in terms of WR’s and it’s ultimately costing them when it matters the most
