Right or wrong and regardless of circumstances, this is going to become a needless story now.

JR is not going to be happy with his GM, and Gettleman is going to have to clear this up.

 

That is exactly why I said what I said earlier, ie, this is going to be another thing in the media!

He actually makes a very good point...

 

The only problem with the article is that no one really knows what Gettleman meant except Gettleman. The writer is clearly speculating that Gettleman was referring to Cam... however, it's very possible that Dave was referring to the whole team when he said "it's time to start winning".

guys, think about it, if fans are upset cam is getting the blame, and news reporters are upset cam is getting the blame, how do you think the rest of the team feels when its basically their fault.  This wasnt DG taking a shot at cam, this was DG, trying to get the rest of the team to take responsibilty and elevate their game.  Its a bit of mind manipulation but should work..

Hello David Gettleman's brain, can you tell us if you are thinking of o-line help.

Either (and i hope) this was taken completely out of context.

 

or

 

Gettleman doesnt beleive that Cam has the leadership abilities to wins Lombardies after his youthful  abilities diminish. 

 

 

 

OR.. maybe this is a ploy to get more pressure on cam to MAKE him more "in charge"

 

i dont know but these comments sound a little personal and to me sound like they are based on something other than talent. we all know cam has talent.

Am I the only one who took the "elephant" in the room to mean the team's record (13-19) is what is holding cam back.  Why is it that reporters and the media are saying he said that was CAM's record.

 

Gettlemen didn't say that.  He said that they need to start winning, that they have the QB of the future and he's really good but that's been overshadowed by the team's record over the last two years.  What's wrong with that???  ITS TRUE.

 

People are making this into something that it isn't.  And its idiotic.

I'll tell you what the elephant in the room is its the damn defense. Since drafting Cam the focus has been about 70/30 building up the defense. I've never seen a team draft a qb and do so little to help him. Is Cam perfect hell no he's only played two seasons.

I think we sometimes forget how young Cam is because of what the other young qbs are "doing"

RG3-Kirk Cousins steps in and throws for more yards in a game than RG3 had all season!

Russel Wilson-was on training wheels while playing with a stellar defense.

Andrew Luck- was asked to do a lot and that team had a magical season or maybe their schedule was magic.

Colin Kaepernick- Alex Smith was having a career season behind that line and defense. Lets not forget that.

Cam Newton- horrible offensive line with a secondary that might be taking bribes.

      I consider last year Bryce's rookie year.....and I expect some regression/D adjustment in his second season in Canales' O.  Film is film.   So yeah, I agree....he won't be the dude that opened up the year week 1 or closed the door week 17.  We will get some dude in between it all most likely.  Which IMO puts us in a really awkward no man's land with Bryce.

      The question is which Bryce shows up game 1. Do we get week 2 (2024) Bryce, or week 18 (2024) Bryce?  I will say that his progression after the benching last year was amazing. He literally got better every game - sans Dallas. Like every week he did something we hadn't seen him do before. And it wasn't luck, toss it up for grabs plays like Penix did against Carolina. Penix was just throwing the ball as hard as he could in the direction of a receiver and hoping they'd make a play for him. What we saw from Bryce was different. Decision making, reading defenses, recognizing blitzes and where they were coming from, knowing his hot, avoiding pressure and manipulating the pocket, throwing with anticipation, taking shots downfield, and running the ball surprisingly well. Stats don't always tell the story. Did he miss some throws that he should have made - sure did. But the clutch gene is strong with this one. One score game and Carolina has the ball with 2 minutes on the clock - I'm confident he'll give them a chance to win more than he doesn't.

      I really like David Moore. He's a reliable WR. Smart, doesn't drop the ball and he's where he's supposed to be. Now, he ain't gonna route up a DB. He ain't gonna 50/50 ball a DB. He ain't gonna run by a DB either. But he runs a good enough route and catches the ball - definitely an NFL average WR. Every team could use a David Moore. Now if this receiving group can force Dan and Dave to let him go, then this team has come a long way since 2023. A LONG way. But I will say that Horn's speed is a big deal. They don't really have another guy with speed and quickness to blow the top off the defense and make guys miss in space after the catch, though he is still a rookie and hasn't done it in the NFL. If he and Renfrow push Moore out, then we might actually have something gents. Plus I see Renfrow as Thielen's replacement in 2026. I just don't think Coker is the reliable, move the chains guy like Thielen. Could be wrong.
