ESPN: "Cam Newton is at top of his game"

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton didn't sound like the winning quarterback on Sunday at Bank of America Stadium. 

"I feel like I was erratic on a lot of things, checks, a lot of things,'' he said. 

He later added, "The sad thing about it, I really feel I could have played a little better.'' 

 

It should be noted here these words came from a player who had only two incompletions and compiled a passer rating of 136.3 in a 30-15 win over theSt. Louis Rams

It should be noted that this performance came a week after Newton had only six incompletions with a career-best rating of 143.4 in a 35-10 victory over Minnesota. 

It should be noted Carolina evened its record at 3-3 this deep into a season for the first time under third-year coach Ron Rivera. 

If Newton can do better he should change his name to Peyton Manning, whose best two-week stretch this season had a rating of 135.8 and 146.0 against Oakland and Philadelphia.

It should be noted one of his incompletions was a drop by Steve and the other was a bizarre downfield pass with 10 seconds left in the first half. He could have been perfect.

 

Cam is playing well these past two weeks, he's making smart decisions. Our offense is limited by our protection, we can't go down field the way we would like. That might bite us later in the year but winning with 15 passes is fine by me.

lol david newton is related to cam this article is biased

 

 

David Newton, not ESPN lol

 

 

I'm assuming that you're being sarcastic SMF, because he's a fuging white dude who was formerly a fuging Nascar Correspondent for ESPN.

 

As to you Chuck.....you're just......special.

This team is gaining steam, fast.

They are playing aggressive, confident, and expect to win.

Dear NFL,

Prepare your anus.

Love,

Cam & friends

    • Not sure I completely agree but it's a pretty accurate list 
    • If Reich or Fitterer were still around I think the need to extend Young because of what he cost would be stronger.  And yeah Morgan was Fit's right hand when the call was made but there an equal chance that Dan will see it as a chance to move on from Fit and shake off that stink. Holding out some hope that 3 years and clear eyes will allow for an honest appraisal that Young just aint the guy
    • As far as elite/elevate talent QB’s It’s Allen Mahomes Jackson and Burrow that’s it.  Then we have tiers and those can be debated all day Dak is a good QB but I know this board would want him out of Charlotte if he was the QB here. 2 playoff wins in 10 years. Justin Herbert no playoff wins. Threw 4 interceptions in last years playoff game. 23 TD passes last year. 20 the year below and 25 the year before that. This board loves stats without context and these stats aren’t saying they’re much above complimentary  Kyler Murray isn’t good. I’m not sure how he made this list.  Caleb Williams, Trevor Lawrence both benefiting from some real good offensive coaches right now. They’re both complimentary pieces until proven otherwise  I like Jordan Love. Always have. I wanted to draft him but he isn’t a superstar.  CJ Stroud hasn’t been much better than Bryce after his rookie season. After that Bears game year 2 his numbers very similar to Bryce I will say I think Drake Maye is well on his way to becoming the next top tier QB if I had to pick one from this entire list. I’d also say Baker Mayfield is a damn good QB and I’d take him over most of those guys not in the elite category  Now if you want to debate tools and which QB’s possess tools to put them in higher tiers that’s a completely different discussion. Most QB’s on your main list all have those physical tools that will keep you thinking he’ll become the next top tier QB. They’ll sprinkle in a “wow” play or two a game. Bryce will never look that way. Young’s game at its peak will physically always look different and I think that’s where most people struggle when it comes to seeing how Young’s can be successful in the league  All QB’s need a team around them. I think the Bills are failing Josh Allen much like the Panthers did Cam. Beane and McDermott using same blueprint with Bills team. Josh Allen hasn’t had much in terms of WR’s and it’s ultimately costing them when it matters the most
