Has there ever been a time that a rookie QB, who has broken so many records and made such an impact on the offensive production from the previous year, has been chastised the way Cam has? By the "fans" of said team?

It seems there were so many people who thought we made the biggest mistake by drafting him. And, I admit, I bought in to it. I was made a skeptic by you guys. I can understand that teams will be trying to take Cam out of the game next year...and some will succeed. But after watching him throughout this season, I'm glad we have him on this team and I think we can be playoff contenders next year. Just one's lowly opinion.

these threads are for the oblivious. its been apparent that cam has been a top 5 qb this year regardless of category you speak of (except wins). this "oh cam is so good" realization every week is getting old.

Cam is legit. And hes a panther. Realize it, love it, accept it. total qbr rating thread not necessary for persuading

He isn't top 5 in passing yards, passings TDs, yards per attempt, or INTs

He's top 5 in putting butts into seats, bringing attention to the Panthers......who really cares about the stats.....I feel confident when the ball is in his hands that something positive is going to happen.....

Really? Being that winning is a stat, you prefer attention over winning?

He's 8th in passing yards, Top 5 in Total TD's, and 7th in YPA.

Not bad for a first year player who you didn't want as a Panther. Perhaps you should send the Panthers an email and tell them what future AllPro you don't want in the 2012 draft. It would really help out.

My most important metric to measure Cam this season? I watch every snap of every game, usually several times, and have had way more holler and yell with joy than scream what the fug were you thinking at my tv moments. Haven't had that in years, so I am happy with where he is at right now.

IMO, What you miss in stats is the feeling of hope that this guy generates from folks who are passionate about the team and I am sorry there is no stat out there that can measure that. To me, everything else is irrelevant. On this board we constantly debate Cam, whether he is better than this QB or that QB, who cares really, at the end of the day what matters is the change and hope that he is bringing to the team. Bottom line, I support that, stats be damned

He would crash outside of this style offense, playing in an NFL style offense, at this point in his professional career. The Air Coryell offense takes a lot of pressure of the quarterback doing complex mechanics.

It has a very complex offensive scheme as a whole, but what a QB actually does to throw the ball, is much simpler.

Wait so you don't consider a coryell based offense to be an "nfl" style offense?

Guys. Why are we letting a few trolls take over threads and cause endless debates about Newton and the offense.

Here are the facts that matter- the offense after last week is top 10 in all yardage categories and the most important one which is points scored.

Newton has accounted for 26 touchdowns and 3800 yards in 12 games. That is over 2 touchdowns and 300 yards passing and running. That puts him 4th in total yards and 5th in touchdowns scored. If folks want to say there are 30 quarterbacks who can pass the ball better than him or have a better QB rating, I don't care. At the end of the day it counts as a TD no matter how you get into the endzone. Does it take away from the running backs? I just listen to opposing coaches talk about how hard it is to defend Newton in the redzone and that is all the answer I need.

If trolls want to analyze obscure stats or make obtuse arguments, be my guest. But honestly I don't care. Newton is a game changer just like The Golden Calf of Bristol is for Denver. When our defense catches up to the offense we will be very tough to beat. Until then I am just enjoying the ride. As for the trolls. Ignore them, after all they feed on people arguing with them. They have no play if we don't give it to them.

1. 8th and 7th aren't top 5, so I was correct.

2. Would love to see where I ever said I didn't want Cam or where I even stated a preference for who I wanted to draft.

Football is a team sport.....Cam has contributed in varying degrees to wins and losses, just like everyone else on the field and sidelines each week.

I wasn't placing blame on Cam for the losing, simply replying to someone that implied attention is more important than stats when winning is a very important stat.

He doesn't have a clue so let it go. How you can have a very complex offensive scheme with multiple reads off of every play yet require the QB to do very little is beyond me. Arguing just feeds the troll and PFFL has shown he will stay at it for hundreds of posts changing alts as he gets banned 6 or 7 times a day. He will change the conversation going down different bunny trails to avoid being wrong. If the point of this message board is to discuss the Panthers and share information, you are wasting your time. He won't benefit from others or change his point of view . You might as well argue with a stone.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By carpanfan96 · Posted

      Rumors are the team is in fact done with Ikem. So it was going to be a LT, just depended on which one got to them at 19.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By The Third Reich · Posted

      I have not read the entire thread, and I realize this is fluff to a degree, but it was recorded in real time.  Here are 10 things that stood out to me: 1. Morgan wrote down (before day 3) the first three day 3 picks.  (Lee, Hecht, and Wheatley).  I was never fond of the Morgan hiring as GM.  I thought he was a lazy selection and I questioned his ability to match wits with some of the best GMs in the NFL.  Not any more. Morgan OWNED this draft.  He knew which players were good fits and when they would be bargains, and he got bargains.  I am thoroughly excited about every player. 2. Canales said (about Hecht, a 5th rounder):  "He has a real chance to start."   Morgan said the same thing about Freeling. While I do not expect either to start day 1, it looks to me like we drafted 40% of our starting OL in 2026.  I think we will sign Ickey to a deal and play him at RG, allowing us to escape the Robert Hunt contract in 2027.  Of course that is conditional, and Ickey could replace Moton instead, but if he fully recovers, we are looking at a better RG/RT than he was a LT--which was average.  3. When Morgan said to second-round DT Hunter, "Ready to play beside Derrick Brown?"  Based on personalities, one calm and soft spoken (for the Most part, Brown is) and the other talkative and openly enthusiastic, it reminded me of Brentson Buckner and Kris Jenkins.   4.  Perhaps the steal of the draft was Tennessee WR Chris Brazzell II.  Clearly the Panthers felt that they passed on him when they took Hunter in round 2.  They mentioned his skill set (able to attack on "all three levels.")  This sent me back to watching film. He has speed, hands, and he produced without a great QB. I think he could be great in the NFL.  When  5. Tepper was a bit more involved than I would like, but he seems to be very confident in Morgan.  If I were the owner, I would be doing the same thing.  Canales was also somewhat of a background character--everyone understood his role and stayed in his lane.   6.  I am also very interested in the quantitative analytics aspect of the draft room.  (something like, "He has a 94% chance of being there at pick 55, and a 38% chance of being there at 87). I would like to know their formula, because it seemed to be spot on. 7.  BPA?  Not really.  They had a shopping list and seemed to be targeting the players they selected. I realize other players were edited out, but I was impressed how they knew, by round, who they wanted and if there were multiple options sitting there, they traded back. 8.  Evero (I think) called Lee a candidate that would serve as the "#3 CB."  Morgan describes his size as a plus (Long). Strong praise for a 4th rounder.  If so, we have Thornton coming off injury who played well as an UDFA rookie and they will battle it out to become Jackson's replacement after the 2026 season, assuming the Panthers do not extend him (he turns 30 in 7 months.O 9.  I think we could realistically see every one of these draft picks play this season, and I believe most could start by next year--Realistically, Freeling, Hunter, Hecht, and Brazzell could all be starting or key rotational pieces this year.  I see Lee and Wheatley getting special teams reps and both could be used this season more than expected.   10.  Kuwatch seemed to be predetermined with the final pick, probably because he can add something special to special teams.   He and Bam Martin Scott will fight it out for the 4th ILB position, so it will probably come down to special teams--and Kuwatch stands out there.  Imagine an ILB with a 46.5 vertical (not a typo) on the FG block team.  Kuwatch has an 8.85 RAS score vs. Martin-Scott's 7.5.

      They did mention Bain as the pick if he fell but didnt seem confident that would be the case.
