Tonight was Newton's best completion % performance ever in a preseason game 3.

2011 - 31%

2012 - 40 %

Tonight - 52%

Cam will be fine... worry about the OL. One that has Williams running at an all time low this time of year. Newton will be the same big play machine he has been.....and we are running the standard Rivera preseason plan of running a vanilla O that takes away all his comfort plays.

Cam is fine. He produced record offense here each year following those all important game 3's

Two things after I've watched the first half

 

- If we make it to next Thursday without adding a legitimate player on the OL, there's a dent perception wise in Gettleman's armor. I just watched our star QB get hurt because our "starting" RG missed an assignment because he's also the backup at LG and very clearly has no idea how the position works. Unacceptable.

 

That huge Lafell drop is also unacceptable.

 

- I've decided on willing to part with something important to legitimately address the OL. I feel strong enough about the rest of the roster that I believe we can make a run and it's worth making a move to insure that that crucial spot on the team does not hold us back.

Yeah dude. You of all people cannot make a thread like this. Either you think cam is going to be fine and the offense will still produce or you think gettleman isn't sold on cam and he's gonna be gone soon. Pick one

I think Cam will be Cam....put the team on his back and be a monster. Same ole, same ole

Do I think he has the pieces around him to be consistant and for the team to turn all these close games into wins? Not with what is around Cam currently. Weak cast around Cam will keep the O too hot and cold and too much on Newton....

Those thoughts don't contradict each other. No need to pick one. Cam will be the same guy he has been for the last 2 seasons.

The offensive line is a problem, and the reason isn't that they're getting manhandled physically, they're simply blowing basic assignments and playing like retards who have no clue what they're doing. Maybe it's the vanilla playcalling, but I'm definitely worried about the line calls.

 

As far as Cam is concerned I'd actually give him props for not committing more turnovers under the kind of duress he's been under.

      You're assuming just as well.   Morgan and Canales were hired 3 days apart.  I believe it was partially due to their connections in Seattle.  i believe Tepper wanted some familiarity with his GM and HC.  It is so easy to sit back and arm-chair QB over draft picks.  You don't know what the philosophy was going into the 2024 draft.  I believe Canales and Morgan were drafting for the future.  XL and Brooks point to that philosophy. Name me one GM that is 100% on draft picks.  Just one.  You're not going to find one.    I think year one picks weren't for what can you do for me now but Potential.   XL hasn't lived up to the hype of a 1st rounder.  I think we all can agree on that. However, there still is hope he comes around.  What I believe they saw in him was his speed after the catch.  He needs to get more consistent but when he gets the ball you kind of hold your breath just a second because if he gets free, he's gone.  The Brooks pick was a signing for the future, and no one could have guessed he would re-injure the same ACL.  This makes the pick look bad but Dallas was ready to draft him later that same round.  IMO we'll have to see what happens next season before we can call this a bust. Wallace has improved each season and for a third rounder has done well.  Sanders has shown flashes and considering the pick in the 4th round it wasn't a bad pick.  His sophomore season IMO was a little bit more productive.  Smith-Wade has been a good addition and has played well.  For a 5th round pick to get as much playing time as he has.  Most picks below round 3 should take a couple of years to get up to speed.  He's been a decent player.  Crumedy, no comment We turned Barrett into Jackson.  This was an amazing move and basically got a starting CB for a 7th round pick.  Pretty shrewd if you ask me. Coker, maybe the best Free Agent signing of the 2024 draft class. So, in short, you can't say that the draft was a bust.  It isn't a home run but all but one are still on the team and outside of Brooks have made contributions to wins.  2025 draft class has been much better with almost every pick making contributions this season.  Now take Fitterer's two years and compare them to Morgan and tell me that they have the same philosophy.

      Bryce Young is the first Panthers QB to throw for 20+ touchdowns in a season since Cam Newton in 2018.

      He hasn’t led crap, he’s on loaded teams and a piece of the puzzle. And he’s he has improved drastically but it took the ultimate QB whispers in Shanahan and KOC. You put him on this Panther team and he’s back to normal Darnold

      Slavin and Jarvis week to week. Florida cheap shots took out our two best players.  I’d start KK so he can beat the brakes off someone.
