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.

    • I'm not sure how much I'm changing mid year, especially when we are seeing some success.    Most Pass Rushers are physically gifted. Scheme and personnel help, but you gotta have the Jimmys and Joes, especially at that position.    We will likely lose games when the other team can throw for 400 yards, and has multiple high level receivers, but I think at this point in the development of our franchise, we have to be ok with that. You can't address every single issue at once. Really looks like we have plugged some holes on offense, and definitely in run defense. In the next draft, if we hit on a CB, an ILB and a Pass rusher, we will be pretty dangerous.
    • No, stay the course, add via FA / Draft.
    • His route running was not very good in this game, especially when compared to the previous week. There were at least three playactions ran where I couldn't tell if he was going to be pass blocking or running a route with how little effort he ran with. They also dinged him for the fumble on the play where XL lateraled to him. 29.8 fumble grade, 6.1 pass block grade, and 40.0 receiving grade really hurt his overall score. Personally, I'd have put him in the mid-to-high 70s on the day. I don't think his receiving grade should've been 40.0 but can see an argument for in the 50s. Maybe his pass blocking grade could've also been in the teens since he did win on the final rep handily.   Just re-watched the receiving TD for Rico and it was a hideous route. DaRon Bland left his zone to cover over top of TMac though which left the area wide open for Rico to get to. Very surprised that they gave Bland a 66.5 coverage grade as I recall him getting picked on a couple of times (and giving up the 4th down throw to Renfrow by giving an incredibly soft cushion).
