Put Cam Back On the Cover of NFL: The Magazine!

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.

    • Like I said, it doesn't matter how far he can or cannot throw the ball. Most (95%) of the game is played within 20 yards of the line of scrimmage anyway. Having a big arm is plus for sure but not completely necessary. Height and  weight is up there and I would argue more important than arm strength. Accuracy and being able to function under pressure is priority number 1 if you ask me.
    • A serious mid-week question:  If you were forced to pick who'll win straight-up for this week's game, who's your choice?  Carolina or Atlanta? Pros for Carolina:  finally, a home game. Carrying over some of the excitement from last week's last 5 minutes. Division rival, chip on our shoulder to prove we can win, etc.    Cons: some key injuries, XL.  And, well.... (waves hands around) all that other stuff Pros for Atlanta: uh, they won last week? (reason for the question: weekly office football pool has the matchup on the sheet and I'm debating which to go with)  
    • we have the same OLine and 2 1k rushers from last season. Is the run game bad because teams are stacking the box because there is no fear of Bryce beating them deep?
