3 players to watch in week 9

Cam Newton, QB, Carolina Panthers

 

Cam Newton needs to turn this contest against the Atlanta Falcons into his signature 2013 win. To keep pace for playoff positioning, Cam must lead the Panthers to a home win against a division rival that sports a weak defense and is on the ropes. If he can't, all that good will he's built up the last several weeks will be neutralized.

It sounds like people are hesitant to believe Cam.

The 3 people I'll be watching- if I had to pick just 3

 

Gross: Osi gave him some trouble last season with NY

Cam- obvious reasons

McDermott- I want to see us take out Tony G- their only real threat, even IF Roddy plays he'll be hobbled.

 

Confirmed he's out.

    • and one is lead by 3rd year starter we are debating a contract and big decisions  on soon…..and one by a rookie 2nd rounder thrust into the gig.   which is the entire point.  And we are talking Tyler freaking Shough.  Not Drake Drake Maye Maye.   Which is really the type QB that should be brought up.  Actual good young QB play   
    • Saw a mock draft where we selected this player. 
    • Incorrect, I have watched us consistently over quite a number of years. When I say Cam relied on athleticism, I simply mean his dual threat style and athleticism overshadowed the deficiencies in the passing game (his own or those created by the system).  Now I wouldn’t disagree that our OCs over that time were not amazing and arguably held him back, but correct me if I’m wrong, Cam had a habit of locking onto his receivers and overthrowing them. Gettleman even drafted two big receivers - Kelvin Benjamin and Devin Funchess - to give Cam receivers with a big catch radius.  Again, correct me if I’m wrong, but Cam had some mechanical issues. For example, the reliance on arm strength over touch and his footwork often led to him throwing off the back foot. There were many debates on these boards about his mechanics, with far more knowledgeable posters than I braking down what he needed to improve on. End of the day, I was as big a Cam fan as the next person, but he did have his shortcomings as a passer. Had he played under someone like Sean McVay or a similar offensive guru, with a high quality QB coach, then I’m sure they would have ironed out the kinks and he would have been far more dangerous and successful than he was. And that’s a scary thought of what he could have been under the likes of a McVay!
