So Cam has played with Ginn and Hixon? No damn excuse he's fuging Tom Brady 3x Super Bowl Champion. No damn excuse for sucking ass like he has

Ginn is what the 4th option right now including Olsen?  Hixon doesnt even see the field so not sure why he is mentioned.  This is his third year with everyone else.  Both Smith and Olsen have had some of their better years these last two, so there is some give and take.  When Cam is on, he makes the wr's better, but when he is overthrowing them, obviously they wont look as good.

Tom Brady won several superbowls with Deon Branch as his number 1 WR. Donovan Mcnabb made Jason Avant and Todd Pinkston house hold names. I happen to think Peyton Manning has always been blessed with good/great WR's. Even Russel Wilson has made Golden Tate look competent. Either way, there are two different possibilities here. Either Cam doesn't make his teammates better, or Lafell, Gettis etc really suck.

Did you see Brady on the sideline when his receivers couldn't make him look good in the poring rain? Plus, brady throws 4 yard passes. Anybody can catch those and make it 2nd & 3. We're not that type of offense. Whatever people say it's the receivers who catches the footballs. No matter what name on the jersey.

No. Cam needs "good" receivers. He's not a Manning, Brady, Brees or Rodgers who can make scrubs look like Pro Bowlers. Cam needs to be put in a Matt Ryan position with two really damn good receivers and a reliable TE. Cam will struggle if weapons are not added. Put Peyton here in Carolina, and LaFail would instantly be a 1k yards receiver. That's just not who Cam is. He doesn't read defense fast enough and decision making is questionable.

hard to make them better if you dont throw to them, but no, i dont think he is on the Brady/Manning/Rogers level where the QB makes the wr's better than their actual talent.  Of course, I can only think of three like that so it's not that common.  Schemes, protection also play a role.

QB throws ball, WR catches ball. The QB is not capable of inducing a WR with the natural ability of getting open and catching a football. It's the reverse, the WR's sole purpose is to make the QB better. Put Calvin on any team and that QB will rack up 5000 yards. Even with a terrible side way throwing motion.

Leader my a$$. How does a leader make someone run a 4.3 at 6'6 240 pounds. NFL players are professionals who's been working on their craft since pee-wee. They deserve more credit when they catch a football from brady or the likes. Give me a break!

The Pats top two wr's last year were freakin TE's for crying out loud.

 

Are you going to sit there with a straight face and compare Gronk and Hernandez to what we have?

 

LMAO.

 

Oh, and just to throw it out there. Cam Newton had a record setting rookie season when we had two good TE's in Olsen and Shockey together. No, it's all Cam's fault though. Why would we want to surround him with talent? Psh.

      This is the new thing lol. It’s all open to interpretation and it’s your fault for your interpretation. The guy saying “stop teasing” was really very upset with Bryce Young being injured, not excited. Ignore his other posts that seem to indicate the opposite. And don’t you know “Exciting not to see Bryce!” was in no way happy with Bryce Young getting injured. Again, don’t bother looking at the rest of the posts for further context. And definitely nobody was making fun of him by saying he was injured by the water boy bumping into him, or it was a gentleman’s benching, or his feelings got hurt. And the comments about him getting tackled by a finger graze or getting taken down by a stiff fart were not hyperbolic over reactions to the play that just happened, it was just general conversation completely unrelated to that play. And of course none of their views are tainted by a desire to see Bryce Young fail, they all want the best for him and the team, that’s how you know for sure that you are totally taking all the posts the wrong way. Really can’t believe you would make up all these lies. gaslighting /ˈɡasˌlīdiNG/ noun noun: gaslighting the practice of psychologically manipulatingsomeone into questioning their own sanity, memory, or powers of reasoning.

      TE group

      I mean we had more of a defensive need in the 2025 draft than we may in the 2026 draft(so far). But we took a TE. We did it in the 5th round. Also he has overwhelmingly been our best TE to date. He and the FA pickup. I think you just have an extremely skewed view of TE's in the NFL. I would implore you to take a look at some draft history, depth charts and career progressions of a lot of those players. You are going to see ample examples of lower round guys being drafted and then immediately starting at TE. The reason it isn't rare is that there aren't many TE's taken in the 1st at all.  It's the same with other positions. You think that it's impossible to find a C outside the 1st? Well....most of them aren't 1st rounders because they rarely get taken there. How about OG? The NFL is mostly non-1st round OG's and the elite tier is almost all not former 1st round OG's. How about RB's? Pretty similar right? That's not just numbers, it's positional value historically. High value positions litter the first round. It's always been that way.
