Why would Cam Newton want to stay here?

I love how no one here is capable of having a conversation without flaming. I'm asking a serious question.

What makes you so sure Cam wouldn't be willing to take a little less money to be in a much better situation with a better chance of winning.

Because he knows if we suck it will be at least partly due to him. We have receivers and running backs to help him and our defense was top 10. Truth is he was as much the reason we struggled as anyone else. He knows it as well. Besides where is he going to go?? Most teams who are clearly better than us already have their franchise guy on board.

Ok really!! Why are people bringing up this crap. Cam was drafted by us and he will get paid. End of story. Do you think that the Panthers will just draft him at number 1 overall and let him walk that quick. LOL No. Unless Cam all of a sudden starts playing like Pickles. Then he is going to be here for years to come and will get a nice contract. Depending on how well he plays and how far he gets team in the playoffs in the next few years. Bottomline stop bringing up this crap about leaving when his rookie contract is up. He will not be going any where unless we franchise him trade him for a few number 1 overalls pick. If Cam wants to go to another team in 2 years. We will tender him and we will get some very nice picks for him.

Honestly, I'd say just things play out a little. We have a new FO regime going into their first offseason, so give 'em a chance to leave their mark.

Also, I doubt we'd just let Cam walk that easily. There are ways to keep players in place i.e. Franchise tag and QBs rarely just up and leave their teams unless traded. How many big name QBs have you seen hit FA in recent memory?

because we thought enough about him to draft him #1 overall. Because the fans adore him here. Because JR will make sure he is paid ridiculous money to stay here for his career. Because by the time that time comes, we will have a great young defense, young talented O-line, and young talented play-makers. He will stay a Panther. No way a team ever lets a franchise QB just leave like that.

I stopped reading here. Well done, sir.

I'm not sure... Having said that, there is evidence that he won't leave the second his contract is up.

1) Franchise tag. That pretty much seals it right there, but let's continue...

2) JR will pay him well for his efforts.

3) Which teams do you see as missing the proverbial "final piece of the puzzle in 2 years?

4) Of those teams, which ones' "final piece" is OB?

As a side note, the reason people are flaming you is that we don't have "just two years to get the pieces around him" as evidenced by point one.

      @PantherChrisgrow the fug up.  We read you whine and bitch about so much all the time, let someone have their own take on things instead of being a petulant child.

      RODS gotta GO

      By Rocky Davis · Posted

      Florida is the only team that would be doing that to us, and it happens when we are down Chatty, Walker isn't 100% and our top players are being molested in plain view on the ice. Florida is bigger and just as fast as we are, they have the two biggest agitating arseholes in the NHL in Marchand and Tkachuk, have a solid coach and a lot of nice pieces that make that team the best in the East by a good margin this year and possibly back to back Cup champions.  I fail to mention Zito who has been aggressive in getting Marchand and Seth Jones plus other players at the deadline to fill in any weaknesses. We have taken the long term, we have a shot every year approach and keep coming up short.  This is the summer to come away with the last needed pieces and if that takes sacrificing some prospects and picks we have to do it.  We have Freddie who is a very good goalie, but I still think young Kooch needs more time - he shows flashes but he still isn't right between the ears yet. This is definitely it for Orlov, not sure about Burns although he has looked it the last half of the season.  It would be nice to be able to get rid of KK somehow.  Svech has never become the guy I thought he'd be so a pure scorer would be nice.  I still like where this organization is EVEN with RBA coaching.  Do we discredit everything the guy has done in years where we weren't supposed to make the playoffs let alone win some series etc??  We need a bit more size, but I like we added Walker, Carrier, and Robinson who all had some good experience and didn't mind showing some grit.  Who's Back:    Forwards:  Aho, Svech, Jarvy, Blake, Hall, Carrier, Staal, Marty, Stankoven (need to sign to a bridge at least), KK  (really need to trade him this summer or next year for sure, his NMC kicks in 26-27) Defensemen:  Slavin, Walker, Chatty, Ghost, Nikishin, Morrow Goalies:  Freddy, Koochy Potential: Forwards:   Nadeau (he was like a -20 in Chicago so he'll have to really earn Rod's trust), Robidas, FUS didn't have a great season, Bring back Roslovic?, Jost for cheap?? Defensemen:  Technically Nikishin and Morrow, but I have them replacing Orlov and Burns above, Honka, Probably will sign one who plays good D and doesn't break the bank Goalies:  Khazheyev?, Sign one possibly?? tl;dr:  Bottom line is we are definitely going to need to sign a Defenseman or two, and 2-3 Forwards with 2 being scorers and hopefully taller than 6'0".  We have really good depth at forward, we are thinning out at D, and our goalies.....I am just not sure.

      You never really know when a team is going to turn a corner and make a deep playoff run.  I say take a swing, this could be like Tillman in 2015
