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

    • You can't keep around a former #1 pick as the backup to his replacement because he wasn't good enough. I think he has two career paths he can take.   The first is as that guy who signs with a new team every year to be the gap starter and/or backup depending on that team's situation.  Think guys like Jameis, Wilson, Brissett the last few years, as he'll be a game manager for them while they try to re-build the roster. The other is as a really good long term backup QB for one team.  He's smart and will make for a great addition to the QB room in film study and game prep.  He won't be a stud replacement if the starter goes down, but he'd be better than most other backups and you know he'll be ready to play when called upon.
