Cam Newton is a TRUE Leader!

The past couple of games have been the same script, by the same director," Newton said. "It’s kind of getting boring. This taste, this vibe — I’m not buying it, man. And I don’t know what it is, but something’s going to have to change. Something’s going to have to change real fast

--Cam Newton post game today

This guy might not make the best decisions, or snap the ball when he should... But this is LEADERSHIP at its finest Ladies and Gentlemen! Most may pick him apart for these comments just because they hate him and love adding fuel to the fire... But ANYONE who knows ANYTHING about the game of football will agree with him to the fullest! This guy is our Franchise, he just echoed all of the fans' sentiments and spoke out for every member of that team... Sometimes being a Leader is difficult, and sometimes things must be said to make positive change. He just proved why he is the real deal with that one statement. He will learn how to be an Elite QB, but what he did today can not be taught, let me assure you of that. I for one applaud him for making the statement, and if he hurt someone's feelings, then so be it! This team has hurt more than just feelings over the past 7 weeks... He just let everyone know that this is unacceptable! You can't put a price on this type of Leadership... I've seen it several times in my Military career, and it saves lives in my line of work. Can't praise the young man enough! Balls of steel Cam, and way to stick up for your teammates and fan base!

On Fox Sports Radio just now someone was talking about how the Panthers have Cam Newton and an aging Steve Smith but they need another superstar to really succeed. I know that is just media jabber, but I do feel like there is no one there making the really big, possibly, game winning play on offense for us this year.

I think we should be destroying teams. We have in fact been given the chance to succeed. Many games have been within grasp but it hasn't happened.

Maybe it is a personnel problem... of course I'm still pretty shaky about all the zone read plays.

Immature to take a shot at the coaching staff in public. It's the antithesis of being a leader.

Shut the hell up. Nothing will get done about it UNLESS he goes public. He's saying what all of the fans are thinking. To sit up there and not say anyting would be suicide.

What's the worse that can happen to him? They sure as hell aren't gonna bench him. If you're gonna lose, at least lose while trying to get better. That option bullshit was luck last year; he knows that the defense has exposed it.

You adapt or you lose out. Chud needs to be called out by somebody, and Ron Rivera is too scared to call out anybody but rookie players.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
