Watching NFL live and they agreed with Smitty's comments over Cam being more of a complete player, but then the underachieving Tim Hasselbeck starts to say Cam isn't a leader and goes to the bench and puts a towel over his head. These analyst just won't stop.

that towel over the head is WAY WAY WAY WAY overrated!!!! the Fox crew did great on explaining it when they said that he wears it like that because of Michael Jordan, so in my book that thing is overrated, the only thing i would agree with on The Golden Calf of Bristol being better is that The Golden Calf of Bristol makes better decisions, but with accuracy, arm strength, that's Cam. as a leader, i think both are similar.

I'm pretty sure they both agreed that Cam was the most complete player of the two. In fact, that "underachieving" Tim Hasselbeck said Cam had a much higher ceiling than The Golden Calf of Bristol.

I think he had a valid point about leadership. It's not like he said Newton is incapable of being a leader. He just hasn't shown it.

I know different guys have different leadership styles, but Cam does look a bit distant and dejected on sidelines, not even talking about the towel but losing seems to have gotten to him. I probably miss a lot of it since my stream quality is low and I can usually only see what he's doing when the camera is actually on him, but he doesn't seem like the kind of guy who fires people up on the sidelines all the time... maybe that is part youth, too. Dunno, I'm not worried about it yet and I think it's premature to decide on anything relating to Cam's "leadership" abilities.

the one thing is that The Golden Calf of Bristol isn't very good during most of the game, but the fact he is avoiding turnovers during that period is slightly redeeming. It's not like he's failing to move the offense and consistently turning the ball over... He just fails to move their offense outside of 2 minutes.

I honestly think The Golden Calf of Bristol & the broncos offense have bought into "a punt isn't a bad play."

they have shown they CAN move the ball when needed, but they seem to want to keep the game as close as they can by not risking turnovers or whatever by actually, uh, moving the ball. I dunno, it's weird, but it's been strangely working so far. It has to stop working at some point..

The best way I've heard it described is " He's a non factor for 58min. For 58 min he doesn't help the Broncos but he doesn't hurt them either. The D keeps it close & then The Golden Calf of Bristol helps."

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      By dep · Posted

      Watched the recent Mic'd up which had the Bucs game. This angle makes that fumble look so much worse, pretty sure it was inbetween Bryce's hands.   bbb.mp4

      The ickey ekwonu question...

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Here is what you did not mention (and I have not read the thread--but will--it is a needed) and that is the MAFF.  He is in a contract year (2026-5th year) and we will not know (in all likelihood) how the knee is healing by the time we have to decide on a mega deal.   If you consider the time it takes to fully heal is 12 months if all goes well, the injury is known to shorten careers.  Of course, a man of 330 lbs who needs agility to perform at a high level makes the injury a bit more serious than it was for Jimmy Graham, for example, who recovered in a remarkable 9 months.  Having said all that, I think he should be moved inside to guard.   While many NFL linemen can return to play after patellar tendon surgery, studies show a significant failure rate and reduced performance, with return-to-play (RTP) rates often cited around 50-56%, meaning roughly 44-50% don't make it back, and even those who do often see reduced careers and statistics, highlighting it as a devastating injury for linemen." I think you have to go after an elite OT, and I think it should be a first rounder because you don't sign elite LTs in free agency.  Ickey is already going to get paid $18m or so in 2026.    However, the money you save by not locking him down long term could go to a free agent edge or ILB.  It is very complicated if you start factoring in contracts, risks, cap, and the odds of recovery.

      Evero and the pass rush

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      Yes, we played the 2nd most cover 3 in the NFL behind the Raiders.   The flats and seams are the areas you want to attack it so its soft spots are areas qbs can hit quickly which can definitely hurt the pass rush.
