Being its the offseason, I'm not sure if this is acceptable to post here. I just wanted to send out a fair warning to all my fellow panther fans looking for jerseys. I was given a jersey on new years. It is supposed to be an elite black cam newton jersey and well...its a fake. It was not ordered off any foreign website. To the casual fan, it may look legit but it couldn't fool me.

I have posted pictures so you can see yourself. Some stuff is just like the elite but there isn't any Keep pounding logo inside it. The "w" in newton looks weird lol, best way I can put it lol Its a "nike" jersey with the panther logo screen printed . I appreciate the thought of someone trying to get me a jersey but I wouldn't be caught wearing this anywhere. I'm going to ask where he go it from so I can spread the word. In the meantime, anyone have any matches....sigh

That W rocks haha.

I know yours was a gift, but I don't get why so many people look for deals, or overseas websites to save money. If you want a jersey, pony up the money for a real one. They're not THAT expensive.

I agree man! I would feel so cheap wearing jerseys like this. I will get my own in time for next season ...from nfl shop lol

The real deal jersey will last you a long time as well. The fakes wear out, and you look like a fake fan. I had a buddy who bought a cheap Ronnie Brown dolphins jersey. It was right in front of BOA right before the game two years ago. Well the jersey was cheaper because it had the wrong number for Ronnie Brown which he got riddled during the game. We got kicked out because he got in some people face about it. That cheap jersey ended up costing us a lot more than we bargained for!

Back a few years I bout three Fake authentic jerseys a smith black a pro bowl smith and a black peppers. All three looked legit. All the right colors and even came with NFL tags and patches. I was quite happy with them. The peppers jersey was the least of the bunch with shoddy sewing on the name and numbers but fug it. 50 bucks a pop. Couldn't beat it.

the "1" looks like a kid cut it out. maybe the photo distorted it....

the first and only Panthers jersey i bought was #89 that cost I think around $180 right before the 04 season(i blame myself for the jinxy on that monday night football game which was the first time i wore it). nice piece of cloth and if i had bought i phony balogne, the screen printing would have worn off by now even tho ive only worn it about 5 or 6 times.

i have a high quality fake Cam Newton reebok authentic jersey, retail price on the real one $250 I paid $40, the only way you could tell it was a fake is something that is actually nicer on mine then the real ones and you would not know it unless I told you.

Unlike speed's jersey mine is a very nice fake and I would never be able to afford the real one anyways, i just have better things to spend money on instead a product license because that's all you are paying for when you buy the real one.

Now with that said I do have a legit Signed Steve smith authentic jersey but I bought that back when I didn't have bills to pay and was still living with the parents 6 years ago.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By frankw · Posted

      I'm not saying it shouldn't be a part of his game it should be present yes. But expecting 500/10 in the rushing category is not sustainable IMO. All it's going to take is a defender to be willing to sacrifice a penalty or a fine to send a message just as the Falcons did with Sam Darnold. And even as big and durable as Cam was defenses eventually started to try to send a message to him too. We have to be realistic about not putting our QB at unnecessary risk. Especially given the fact we aren't even willing to run a QB sneak with him. We've also invested a good bit in our backfield that's what they're there for. And furthermore ultimately whatever QB  tier Bryce Young ends up landing in over the course of his career it is going to be defined by what he does as a passer not his rushing ability. That's all I'm saying.

      Bryce had 191 yards 55% completion 1 td 1 pick.  That's an amazing performance?   Come on people

      His footwork has been discussed many times over related to not just within the pocket but the quality of his drop backs and how while his receivers have been an issue his own footwork has created issues with his receivers. It is a mutual give and take dynamic after all. As far as his deep passing goes I will happily admit I saw some very impressive long throws from Bryce later in the season and I said so at the time and I'm still saying so now. That doesn't mean that there still aren't issues and beyond some instances of him flat out missing receivers deep that he knows he needs to get corrected I think there are still some throws to the sideline that defenses are going to test Bryce on early and often and until he can prove he can beat defenses on those throws consistently they will play him the same way. As far as talk of Bryce being top ten and the metrics that define that different people are going to have different answers and I've said before after the conclusion of the 2024 season that I'm going to try to put yardage aside in some cases and just focus on what Bryce is doing both between the 20's moving the ball and how our redzone scoring percentage is looking. The biggest thing I'm looking for this season is scoring points. Not just field goals. Touchdowns. If the offense is moving consistently and reaching the end zone more often than not and not squandering drives and settling for field goals then I am going to be content for the time being. I do not expect miracles this season. I expect development and competiveness on both sides of the ball but particularly the offense trending upward given the investments we've made. And no blowout losses. I don't think that's an unreasonable ask do you agree? 🫡
