...will idiots on ESPN shut up about it and stop with their incessantly face-value offerings on cam's play?

...will idiots on the huddle shut up about it and stop with their incessantly face-value offerings on cam's play?

i vote yes for the former and no for the latter, because the average huddle poster makes less sense than skip bayless, but if you are neither a moron poster or skip bayless you should be excited about what this team did tonight. cam newton led his team down the field with the game on the line and took the lead in a situation when they've fallen short in the past, and then the defense responded accordingly.

we have a football team folks. get excited for the rest of the year, because it's an antecedent of what's to come.

Eagles gave up... But Cam regained some momentum in his development. He is well on his way, but I'm waiting to see him play this way in the big game. He obviously can.

Media guys arent going to get behind him until he comes back and wins the big game. Tonight wasnt the big game, but great to see Cam back on his game.

Glad to see he accomplished it, but you won't see anyone changing their mind until he does so consistently. Not agreeing, just pointing it out.

I'd like to see him overcome and fix the "turnovers = almost automatic loss" perception more myself.

Team still hasnt won a game that Cameron has turned the ball over in. But another 4th quarter comeback in the books is sweet! Hopefully we can start getting more blowout wins under our belts in the next season or so.

Getting ahead of yourself again...

I think we would all be happy with wins...

Chiefs up next Cam should roll them too.

KC actually can play D. They have no O.

As we saw against Philly, Carolina still puts Cam in situations where he has to play flawless to get a win. Watch the KC offense come alive forcing Cam again to have to play perfect to beat scrubs.

It's not so much he needs to be flawless as it is winning the turnover battle, when Cam makes mistakes they tend to come in bunches.

We need new coaches.

Id be even happier with blowouts. I understand we dont have the talent or coaching for that. One man alone cant blow out an NFL team. But itd be nice if we applied pressure more than we feel it.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
