Saw what Newton was made of today


Recommended Posts

With it all on the line, all the pressure in the world he pushed his chips to the middle. Dude showed up. A lot of people should eat a poo sandwich talking about our QB like that.

That's what made me sick about today. Cam had them. Had them beat. But a QB in this league cannot become a great with a sad sack coaching staff and makeshift D. It takes a lot for the stars to align.

The kid played unreal. Just a shame. This was Cleveland Browns style of loser

People are quick to forget that he fumbled when he had the 1st down to seal the game against the back of his own player.

The panthers still got the ball back, there are no guarantees that another quarterback would have gotten the first down. Rivera should of went for the first down plain and simple.

It's absolutely mind boggling to me that we did not go for it on 4th with some combo of Cam, Stew, and/or Tolbert.

Just mind blowing.

Cam can get a yard by bending over to tie his shoe. He did all he could today, but again, our coaching staff shined through with their genius and wasted it.

    • no doubt but flip that.   The current system insures that there are "regional" games in the early weeks. maximizing the reach of playoff football.  If all of the WC weekend for a conference took place on the west coast they are reducing the "reach" of their hype machine.
    • Hard to say with London--he never ran--combine or pro day.  Here is what AI says, and it is always 100% accurate: Drake London's 40-yard dash time at the NFL Combine was not recorded because he was dealing with a fractured ankle at the time. While he didn't participate in the 40 at the Combine or his pro day, his coach said his 40 time was estimated to be between 4.4 and 4.53 seconds. Some sources also list his 40 time at 4.58 and 4.6 seconds Unless you are running 9s all day, top end 40 speed is rarely reached.  I have always looked at the 3-cone drill.  At his pro day, TMac ran a 6.86--pretty good, actually.  For context, it is faster that Rome Odunze (6.88) who ran a 4.45 40.  Odunze is 6'3" and weighs 216, fwiw, and is considered a very good route runner with no wasted motion.  Mike Evans 3-cone was 7.08.  To put it in a broader context, through 2022, with all NFL prospect 3-cone drills combined, a 6.86 puts TMac in the.89th percentile-  Now consider the fact that he is 6'4" and 220.   We might have something here.  '
