Cam's stats will not be as impressive next year...

I truly believe Cam wont reach the 3,400 yard passing mark...That said his efficency will go up, our run game will be even better and we will win more games just based on defense alone. Dont look for Cam to break 5,000 yards, we don't need that and with how our team is built we don't want that. We want to beat teams up on the ground. The only wr we added was Joe Adams, (yes we get Gettis back) but a key move to show what Rivera wants this team to be like was the addition of Tolbert to an already crowded backfield. Last year we showed off our new toy this year we want to win games...Dont take Cam in the first round in fantasy and draft Stewart and williams back to back in the middle rounds lol..

thanks for sharing?....that said i don't buy it. by that i mean i don't think we'll see a significant drop in his production. maybe rushing TDs and rushing yardage, but beyond that everything should improve. i do see the defense helping out, but i don't think i see this offense backing off just because they think the defense has the game in hand...at least it shouldn't. any offense in modern football who takes the foot off the gas at any point in the game, regardless of what the scoreboard looks like, deserves to lose the game and very likely will. that is the mindset they need to have.

the defense will help preserve leads, but the best defense is a great offense that just won't let up. all the defense needs to do is slow up the other team.

all that said...i don't think that people will be as blown away by cam as they were last year but that's because by now the secrets out just how good he is. excellence is expected in a way it wasn't last year. only the littlest of minds expect anything but greatness next year.

I'm with Razor and CRA on this one. His stats should continue to improve.

As to the running game, many of Tolbert's touches will be through the air, so his addition may not have a big impact on Cam's stats. Also, running games always start slowly. It takes a while for O-lines to gel and the RB's to get in gear. Cam should continue to have big numbers in the 1st few games.

    • If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.
    • Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
    • it's not so much this personal vendetta against the Carolina Panthers as it is more about Bryce Young never not once been in the same conversation with the top 15 or even top 20 Qbs in the NFL ..just saying
