Despite all this "sophomore slump" blah blah, cam actually has a higher quarterback rating as of now than he did last year (not qbr) 85.8 > 84.5.

He is also averaging more yards per completion. I think if we can get some more talent on the OL and a WR we will be alright.

Also new coaches.

I just think it's funny how everyone has been bashing cam for having a down year. I know quarterback rating doesn't say it all, and he has struggled mightily in some games/situations, but overall he is having a very similar year as last year.

At this point last year, his td-int ratio was 13/14 (14-10 now) and EVERYONE was slobbering over him. What changed?

Over the last five games Cam is completing 58% of his passes for 1,232 yards, has 9 TD's to just 2 INT's, and has an average rating of 103. Plus he has ran for 214 yards and 3 TD's. Cam had some struggles earlier, but has been playing very, very good football lately.

Can't knock him because the rest of the team consistently shits the bed.

expectations changed

Last year we were coming off a 2-14 season and we were all talking about how 4 wins would be huge.

This year, most everyone was expecting 8-8 or better (except for a few). Unfotunately, the easiest person to target when expectations aren't being met is the QB (outside of the head coach). Even if he is having a decent year.

unfortunately the most attractive talking point for pundits is "over the last five games cam newton has completed just fifty-eight percent of his passes. that's abysmal. is it the towel? ego? it's safe to say there's a really bad sophomore slump going on here blah blah blah"

The issue still lies in the fact that we just can't seem to win close games.

Neither the defense nor the offense seem to be able to stand up and make a play when we really need it.

The defense was weak yesterday. But, the offense did have the ball twice in the final 8 minutes needing a TD to win....and could not close the deal. Now, the play calling sucked as usual....but you still gotta make plays when the game is on the line.

Until this offense can demonstrate the ability to do that, Cam will continue to be questioned by the media....unfairly a lot of times, but it will continue to happen.

I would leave off the completion pct in that debate, that's pretty low. I wouldn't have expected it to be that low....

If you are comparing it to quarterbacks that run the spread of wco then it would be low. For a qb running a vertical passing game like coryell air its decent. He is throwing a higher percentage of deep balls which will naturally hurt completion pct but help ypa.

      Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways.

      Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season.

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
