FAN UP! Time for the Fan to step up

Rarely can a fan base directly affect the future of the talent on a team, but today only you may have the chance.

Send Cam Newton to the Pro Bowl!!

Today (19Dec11) is the last day of voting, and for once, vote early and vote often.

If Cam could spend a week in Hawaii rubbing elbows with the best of the best, I don't doubt that his personality and drive for success could influence one or two to consider making the jump to the Panthers.

I know that most of these guys are under contract and would probably get hit with a franchise tag when they come up, but it doesn't always work out that way. Some will be going back to teams with new head coaches next year and others may have large contracts that teams may not want to match.

So, even if he can't convince anybody to move this year, I'd still love to watch Cam to Smith passes in late January :)

It's kind of sad watching a fan-site that spend so much time talking and criticizing their QB despite what he's brought to this team be so reluctant to support him where when it counts.

I'm sure The Golden Calf of Bristol's fans are doing their very best to get Tim to the Pro-Bowl with every little accomplishment.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
