I really like our ESPN writer David Newton.

 

Cam can: How impressive are Cam Newton's consecutive passer ratings of 143.4 (Minnesota) and 136.3 (St. Louis)? No other quarterback in the league -- including Peyton Manning, who is having a career year -- has had consecutive games of 136.0 or better this season. Newton was 15-for-17 for 204 yards and a touchdown against the Rams. Both incompletions were in the first half, and one was a drop by wide receiver Steve Smith. In Carolina's three wins Newton is 50-for-70 for 669 yards and seven touchdowns. He also ran for two touchdowns in those games.

 

Safety Mike Mitchell stood on the St. Louis sideline after Bradford out of bounds in the fourth quarter with his arms spread wide. He called that his "lurk," meaning he's always lurking in the secondary. Mitchell said he didn't realize Bradford had injured his knee, which would sideline him for the rest of the game.

 

 

Rookie first-round draft pick defensive tackle Star Lotulelei had a career-best six tackles, including two for losses. Second-round pick Kawann Short had three tackles, including two for losses. End Greg Hardy had four tackles, including a sack. Considering the Rams only ran 21 times, there weren't a lot of other opportunities. This is a sign the defense as a whole is playing better, not Kuechly playing worse.

 

Good write up all around.

Not sure if I should post this here. But, I just happened to pass by their last segment on ESPN first fake ( I don't watch their show, remote slipped), and that idiot says. " those 400 yard games are a thing of the past, and that Cam has become a game manager". Coming into the draft hw said Cam, " would never be a .more accurate thrower of the football then the t-blows". This guy takes cheep shots at .Cam every chance he gets. Same goes for bill polian, whose opinion also sucks.

gotta remember, point of those shows is ratings....not being objective.

 

Game managers don't have 4 TD games...he already has 2 this year.  He had 2 in 2011 and 1 of those games in 2012.  He isn't even half way through this season.

What was Cam's record in those games?

now they all-of-a-sudden dont care about wins and losses as much, kinda funny right?

[ForeverPanthers]

How much of the actual games do they even watch. Little to none I bet. They just read the stat lines.

Your right, I bet they don't watch any of those games, just the national ones. They're just "box score analyst"

[Jackofalltrades]

I'm sure they just watch their own highlight clips.

 

God forbid professional analysts do any actual analysis.

Cam puts up huge numbers, but it's not good enough because we still lost.

 

Cam is one yard away from have a perfect passer rating but only 200 yards, forget the win, now he is not capable of putting up big numbers.
