Didn't see this discussed before.  I know my opinion is going to be a bit biased but I have a hard time believing there were 86 better plays than Cam's 72 yard TD run vs the Falcons this year...

 

The poll has that play comfortably in the lead as the best play of that block of 10, I would guess most agree with me that it should be ranked higher.

Yeh, it prob should. However, rg3 did the same thing and from a few (very few) more yards out. Plus he did it before Cam. If he didn't it would be ranked higher. Because we all kno how much love they are giving the rookies from last year because their team made the playoffs. But Andy Dalton was in the playoffs cam's rookie season, but no one considers him better than cam. He has just been overlooked this year, but that will change soon.

Damn guys.....stop with the fuging pity party every time you feel we are slighted.

 

You guys care WAY too much what the media thinks.

 

We shut them up on the field.  With a 6-10 and 7-9 season the last two years, we are not going to get any love or respect.

 

Laugh at the media now....and it will be even sweeter when we prove them wrong this year.

Cam's TD run was 10 times better than Bob Acronym's run yet Bob's run gets all the hype as the worlds greatest football play.

Heh yea, Cam's dancing and weaving at the end to ensure he got into the end zone was a thing of beauty.  Almost as beautiful as Smitty's hustle and blocking.  A lesser man (with a lesser WR as his wing man) would have been tackled at the 20 when the defense caught up.

The coolest thing about that play was that Cam didn't even look like he was trying.  Its like he knew what he was going to do and knew that they couldn't stop him.  I don't know if I have ever seen a player be able to just do whatever he wants to do.  Peppers was the closest but he didn't want to.  Cam wants to and has that Peppers like athletic ability to dominate.

I'm not whining, it doesn't matter where they rank it. I just think they would have ranked it higher if rg3 didn't already do basically the same thing from 76 yards out. They are giving lots of love to the rookies, which is mostly deserved. They played great. But they have thrown Cam to the side right now, but like I said as well as others, that should change pretty soon.

    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
    • Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
