Cam didn't step up.. but nobody else did either

As much as I hated Cam's performance tonight, I have to give this loss the the O-line for the lack of protection and not controlling the line of scrimmage. And the rest of the blame goes on the whole Defense. Is our Secondary even competent at the NFL level?

Maybe Cam doesn't force those throws if the O-line is doing their job. No excuses though, he should have played better.

I hope this is not the level of play we are going to get out of Cam from time to time.. that will be sad.

Another apologist. We get it. You like your shiny Cam Newton jersey. More power to you. Doesn't change the fact that Cam Newton was an abomination tonight.

And, actually, his protection was okay. Not great by any means, but good enough that he shouldn't have played THAT poorly.

That is so funny. You calling someone an apologist. Did you even comprehend the topic? Moron.

What the f*ck do you want Cam to do? Run all the routes and throw the ball to himself?

The Giants were playing the same style of defense they used to beat Tom Brady in the Super Bowl: rush four elite pass rushers and spread the rest of the defense in coverage.

When our running game disappeared the game was over, and the running game disappeared because we fell behind early, and we fell behind early because the defense played like SH|T. If Cam had gotten the same time to throw that Eli Manning did he could have done something, but Eli wasn't lining up across from Tuck, Umeniyora and JPP.

Well Cam doesn't force those balls if he has a D.....and the O isn't put in desperation mode.

Until Cam gets a D....he will turn it over. Game got to the point where he threw that 2nd pick.....where a punt wasn't a good play. He had to make throws even if it wasn't there

We get it. You're douche who would rather have Clausen at QB because he loses humbly. Being a bitch, doesn't make you a great poster it just makes you a bitch.

Cam held the ball too long. Period. Was the protection perfect? No. But he could have made more plays quicker. He couldn't decide where to go with the ball until the windows grew smaller and it cost him. He doesn't have the clock in his head set correctly. He played like an arrogant athlete instead of a competent and humble NFL QB. He thinks because he has all of this God-given ability that he is an exception to the rule. He isn't. Tonight proved it. He forced throws, did a poor job of anticipating the rush, lost all of his mechanics, and didn't even bother to change a thing. It was an arrogant and stubborn performance by him and he should be embarrassed.

Is this a joke? Cam has to control what he can control from beginning to end. He shouldn't start forcing throws in the 1st quarter (which he did) because "we have no defense". He still has to do his job, and namely not dig a deeper hole for the team, but rather settle the team down and get it done. He has to change his mental approach to being on the field and playing this game. He plays with passion when things are good, and plays like a toddler throwing a tantrum when it's bad. He has to play on an even keel. The offense surrounds him entirely. He has to bear that burden better than he has, or he will continue to fail at winning games.

    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field. 
    • At least we don't need to hear overreacting about towels ...
    • Actually there is, try being a Charlotte Hornets fan. I mean the team fuging moved at its peak and hasn't recovered since and that was 25 years ago
