Cam is good and he is a very gifted physical specimen that still has room to grow and improve. He is without a doubt much better when the read option is a part of the offense. It (the read option) never again needs to be the base offense but just sprinkled in because Cam runs it so well. This was a very good win today...

The problem is most of the people offering this "criticism" toward Cam automatically assume anyone who dare attempts to counter their argument is either a drooling homer, or simply out to silence their "opinion".

I don't think that is true, but often cruel, rude remarks are these "counters" to arguments. I also think that people get really defensive when someone critiques Cam, like he is off limits, just all kinds of bent out of shape. It's really silly (my own actions included) that we go through this every Sunday. This thread was an obvious troll thread by Growl incited to start a small stage riot on a damn good Sunday. Because it was a damn good Sunday as a Panthers fan, I am going to bow out of the Cam discussion and will try to enjoy last last 2 hours of Sunday. If another Cam thread pops up two weeks from now my ass is steering clear, huddlers (myself included) be trippin'.

When Jake Delhomme was in charge, numerous people wanted the team to ditch the gunslinger and go get a franchise QB in the mold of a Brady/Brees/Manning/Rodgers.

Well, they went out and got a franchise QB...who's a gunslinger :blink:

I will admit it amuses me :lol:

Lets not forget that before Jake was "the gunslinger" he was the guy that won an NFC championship game throwing only 7 passes. He was a game manager too.

Cam really outplayed traditional pocket old school no-towel wearing Eli Manning today. Was the much better player. Completely outgunned him.

I can't believe it took this long for someone to point this out. I'm a little ashamed that I didn't say it first. Cam punked Eli like a prison bitch.

Disagree.  Jake was a gunslinger from game one against the Jags.

 

Dan Henning tried to change him into a game manager.  Didn't go very well.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Actually that 4400 was based on a 16 game season to match Bryce's 16 games this year. Your offense has to be to drive the ball when it matters. Bryce doesn't do that with any level of consistency. If you're building a team that isn't focused on your QB, then fine. Then there's no need to pay Bryce as a franchise QB because literally anyone else will do. If you're going to pay him 50m plus per season, you have to be able to put the team on his shoulders and know he's going to carry the load. So far, when the pressure is on to get it done, Bryce has fallen miserably short of the target. 4-6 to finish out the season and 0-2 when all we need is a win to secure a playoff spot isn't stepping up and proving yourself as a franchise QB. I'd say it's quite the opposite.  There isn't a single coach in this league that would take Bryce over Burrow and very few if any that would take Bryce over Prescott. Hurts didn't have to throw in 2025 because Philly's defense was disgusting and Saquan had a MVP season. But then again, Hurts has shown that he can when it counts, and then there's his signature. Philly runs the tush push to lethal perfection, but that's a play we can't even consider with Bryce. You used 3 QBs from teams that had no defense to show QB stats don't always matter. When we had the worst defense in the NFL, we didn't see Bryce step up and carry the offense and put up gaudy numbers in a losing season because we were playing catch up. It was pretty much the opposite.  What have we seen from Bryce consistently to consider offering him a top 10 NFL franchise QB level contract? At the end of the day, that's all that matters.

      Post-Draft: Gantt sets A stage, not THE stage. Perhaps Reset Your Expectations

      I mean, what fanbase has high expectations when you have a QB like Bryce leading your team?

      If you pay Bryce $50M a year you greatly limit your ability to put the type of team around him you need to have to have a chance to win. THAT is the problem. Hell, we can't win with him on a rookie contract. How the hell are we supposed to start winning with him paying him like a franchise QB and having to make tough roster decisions to accommodate his cap hit?
