...will idiots on ESPN 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.

    • Saints trade WR Shaheed to Seahawks Seahawks get: WR Rashid Shaheed Saints get: 2026 fourth-round pick, 2026 fifth-round pick Seahawks' grade: A- Saints' grade: B+ One of the NFL's hottest passing teams just got better. The Seahawks currently rank third in EPA per dropback (0.25) and first in success rate on dropbacks (53%). And now they are adding Shaheed in a move that makes sense both on the field and in terms of where the Seahawks are as a franchise. Shaheed, 27, is averaging 1.8 yards per route run this season. But I think that sells him short because that number is down a bit from his career average entering this year (2.0) and he's been playing a role that includes running fewer vertical routes (34%) compared to last year (44%). Shaheed also has consistently posted above-average open scores in ESPN's receiver score metrics, including a 63 this season that ranks 28th among wide receivers. As a complement to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, I expect Shaheed will run downfield more often and be a bigger threat in that role than rookie Tory Horton was. When Cooper Kupp returns, he and Shaheed will make for a nice pair of secondary threats behind one of the best receivers in the league in Smith-Njigba. This is the time to strike for the Seahawks. FPI gives Seattle an 84% chance to make the playoffs and a 5% shot at winning the Super Bowl. This addition helps boost their chances without mortgaging their future the way the Colts did in the Sauce Gardner trade. Shaheed is a pending free agent but given the leverage of the moment for the Seahawks and their need I think they ought to be plenty willing to pay the cost. Shaheed is young enough to where if Seattle doesn't retain him he should sign a free agent contract that would yield Seattle a compensatory pick -- if the Seahawks don't nullify that pick with signings of their own. Because the Seahawks currently have $79 million in cap space next year, per OverTheCap, getting that compensatory pick is not guaranteed. The Saints are not rolling in cap space the way the Seahawks are -- and thus would land a compensatory pick for Shaheed -- but they got more draft capital this way than they otherwise would have. Considering New Orleans' 1-8 record, this should have been an easy decision.
