http://www.change.org/petitions/nfl-the-magazine-editorial-staff-remove-tim-The Golden Calf of Bristol-from-the-cover-of-the-nfl-the-magazine-inaugural-issue

I've already contacted Kevin LaForce (the VP in charge of the mag) and Roger Goodell through email, and LaForce is supposed to return my phone call later today. Be courteous, but insistent.

The petition doesn't mention Cam because getting rid of The Golden Calf of Bristol will be impetus enough to put Cam back on it, hopefully.

I care about this greatly because I ordered a two-year subscription based on receiving a collectors' edition of the inaugural issue with Cam on the cover, and this bait-and-switch infuriated me.

Please stop.

Look, we have a player who we hope will develop into a franchise star, one of those guys we can always look to other teams and say "Cam Newton was a Panther," much like our own Steve Smith. He's already getting dogged by people wanting to gift Dalton the RoTY, posters up here who would rather have the backup QB from Miami, and a media ready to prop The Golden Calf of Bristol up one day just so they can blow him up the next.

Cam will be in this league years after The Golden Calf of Bristol is off building orphanages in the third world and maybe one day getting laid. The Golden Calf of Bristol's a great person, terrible QB, and this honor was given to Cam before being unceremoniously taken away to someone who isn't even the best player on his own team, or the most responsible for their current win streak.

If they put Von Miller instead of Cam on the cover I would have had far less of a problem, but The Golden Calf of Bristol deserves nothing more than five million reps with a hanging tire and a football.

      Yeah, Dave doesn't seem like a "muh scheme" type of coach where he wants plays drawn up for his QB to robotically go through a preprogrammed process. He seems like more the type of coach that just wants his scheme to produce opportunities for a QB to be a playmaker. It's a scheme you'd love to play in as a QB and it's the type of scheme that should work really well for the "point guard mentality" QB they tried to sell us on Bryce being and the type of QB he was at Alabama but at the NFL level all of those physical shortcomings that seemed plainly evident to many of us on the college field are showing up in a big way. Even with his bad decisions I honestly think a lot of it is that he's struggling to see the field. I don't mean that figuratively in that he's misreading the defense or missing open receivers, I mean that literally in that I think he's struggling to see the field over the lines of 6'4"+ huge men in front of him. Reich used to talk about creating throwing lanes for Bryce to see through and holy poo... if you need throwing lanes now you've massively shrunk your opportunities. Now you're trying to play QB through a picket fence. If you watched him play at Bama, you saw him routinely drop back 10-15 yards behind the LOS to gain depth so that he could see over the scrum. You just can't do that routinely in the NFL. NFL pass rushers are just too good. Your OTs can't create that deep of a pocket.

      This could be a breakout game for Kyle Pitts. I'm hoping for a miracle just so we have something to talk about besides the team sucking poo.

      No more mistakes on draft day...

      By Waldo · Posted

      I don't remember a 2018 tear down. I remember the failed 2019 failed build up of the 3-4 switch which is still stuck in the 'working on the foundation' stage. I thought 2020 was closer to that but really it was just an idiot behind the wheel doing what idiots do. Poor drafting and free agents is the main problem IMO. This team hits so little on talent it's actually amazing they don't stumble over more just by accident.   I still don't think there is anything to tear down. Just a ton of easy to dump people that should happen. It's a bottom of the roster churn that reaches 2/3s the way up this roster.
