So on one side we have every talking head including a slew or former players who all say Newton is fantastic and way better than anyone thought. On the other side we have a few Panther trolls (you know who they are) who are always taking shots at him and downplaying his accomplishments and the offense in general.

Who seems more credible?????? HMMM......................

I know who I believe. Funny how with each passing week and every mark he eclipses, the few haters who are left become even more disenfranchised and are fringe elements with no real support.

I was in favor of drafting Cam, and I didn't think much of his off the field problems either. I was one of the few here who thought that Cam would be an absolute terror for opposing NFL defenses as far as his scrambling ability was concerned. And I gave his passing ability extremely high ratings when I evaluted him before the draft.

What bothered me was all the Auburn fans who jumped on board after the draft and seemed to me to be overestimating Cam's ability. It turns out the Auburn fans were right, Cam is the most talented player we've ever had, and the greatest thing to ever happen to this organization.

Seriously, is this real life?

I can't believe Cam is on our team. I mean a player this good - going to be one of the best in the NFL for years - on OUR team!!! WTF!!!

So awesome. Such an exciting time to be a Panthers fan.

For a long time there it felt like we would never have a franchise QB, let alone a superstar who redefines the position and is an awesome guy to boot.

Bo Jackson knew about all this way before any one of us. He spoke of his greatness like hes the next coming of Jesus.

That's a good point. I thought Mr Jackson was high when I heard that interview. He was talking about Newton being one of the top two baddest (as in most feared) players in the NFL before he'd played a down. With the speed of Vick and the arm of Marino (I think).

Clearly the old saying is true: "Bo knows".

Cam is the most exciting player that ever came to Charlotte. The NFC South will be his for the taking. This is a thrill for this PLS owner. I am looking forward to the day when our defense comes back to work. I tell you, next season is going to be a lot of fun, as long as we keep the two headed monster running. Cam seems to be a great goodhearted young man that loves to play football. He will have lots of fun. (No dooky, when we were kids,we actually used to play football for fun.) Winning is fun. Call me a hater, when I critisize mistakes of any player if you want. I am a Panther fan, fully supporting the organization, PSLs and all. They are my team. But if a player screws up, any player, I will call it as I see it. (A mod gave me all this red because he dissagreed with that. That is wrong, but it really does not hurt at all.) I am thrilled to be looking forward to finnally having a winning team. Cam is a great big chunk of that.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By Icege · Posted

      "If only Bryce were <height>", he'd <insert stupid thing here>" was the bit and in direct response to multiple posters ridiculously blaming Bryce (and only Bryce) for the punt returns vs. New England. :3 I understand that folks desire balance, hence the "Bryce stans vs. Bryce haters" narrative but it's abundantly clear that the only people going into threads just to talk about Bryce are the haters. Meanwhile, daring to disagree that Bryce was completely at fault for something that happened on special teams gets the "stan" label. Shoot, I'm sure folks lump me in as a Bryce stan (Brycen stan? Absolutely. Bryce stan? Nah) just because I have the audacity to look at what the rest of the team is and isn't doing. 😛

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By CRA · Posted

      PJ Walker is the only QB in the Tepper era the Panthers managed to find wins with.  Only QB w/ a winning record.    PJ had success in pro ball before the Panthers.  He he had NFL tools.    He just is consistent and unreliable.  PJ Walker is what you call a bad/poor man's gunslinger.  He can provide highs and lows both virtually guaranteed.  He is NFL depth.  Bryce Young hasn't proven to improve a teams chances of winning better than the PJ Walker tier of QBing. PJ Walker can do things Bryce Young can't......and that a problem

      There isn’t but the thing is the team/system/staff around the QB ultimately dictates how successful that QB can be. You have Baker getting released midseason here vs playing like a MVP on another team. Darnold on the Jets/Panthers vs Vikings/Seahawks. Geno Smith on the Jets vs the Seahawks vs the Raiders. Mac Jones is looking as good as Purdy on the 49ers. You have to build a roster, culture, and system for these guys.  Obviously the QB has to be the leader and help elevate the team, but we are seeing what moving a “bad” QB to a stable franchise looks like. Daniel Jones might be doing the same but it’s too early to tell.
