Too much pressure on Cam Newton to win

Sooo, some mod found it necessary to ban me because I opened a thread about Chip Kelly? And I see other similar threads on here? Power drunk much?

 

 

Anyways, according to Ron;

 

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Is too much pressure being put on quarterback Cam Newton to win for the winless Carolina Panthers?

Coach Ron Rivera believes so, and he makes a valid point.

"Too much hinges on people thinking it's all about just the quarterback,'' Rivera said on Friday. "Yeah, he's got to play well, but so do the other guys around him. One of the things I try to tell the players is we need 11 guys doing one thing at a time, not one guy doing 11.

Maybe the pressure is getting to Cam. Which is not a bad thing.

That shouldn't come as a surprise. Carolina linebacker Chase Blackburn, who started at middle linebacker for the Giants a year ago in a 36-7 victory over the Panthers, said the goal then was to make Newton and the offense one-dimensional.

In other words, make Newton beat them with his arm.

 

 

 

It looks like he is getting a reputation in the league as not too good of a passer. I dunno.. He needs to step up and prove doubters wrong.

If a QB is pressing help him out with some simple reads and easier throws.

Just because Cam is usually very good throwing down field doesn't mean we have to chuck it every play.

Everyone bitched about the play calling in the Seattle game but I thought it was pretty good and would rather see that then what we did against Buffalo

      Sounds encouraging.  I agree about the LB....I was CERTAIN second round would be a LB.  I would also like to add that, on paper, DL looked solid--but only 1 performed well in 2025 (2 if you count Robinson, who is now gone).  I am guessing they feel that the LB play will improve with the improvement up front--logical.  Remember the old rule (not sure who said it first) "You build from the inside out, front to back."   We drafted, in my early opinion, a starting NT and C this year.  inside out, front to back.

      Agree--I think a mid-level tackle but he could prove to be an elite G--not sure how he would do at RT--or maybe Freeling---lotta moving parts--but I would look at him at G if mid-level T is his ceiling--he has been improving, but the injury..

      Worked an event that many players were at including Ickey. Talked to him, looks and walks around good/normal. Taylor Moton released a new Tequila with his partner Matt Kahlil. Taylor looks great and is psyched for the season. He's such a good guy. Even Derrick Brown, very focused. It's like a quiet, calm I'm gonna rip through you confidence. Building his forever home and sticking around CLT. Bryce stopped in, but was upbuilding talking to the guys, not drinking, smoking cigars like others. There was little different aura with them, almost a quiet confidence, some fun. Reminded me of the 2013-2018 era. Had an event Tuesday with TD (he was there last night too) and he thinks the team looks real good, maybe just needs an another LB. He loves the Devin Lloyd pick up.  No negative comments, just giving a nice update on some players.
