Cam is about to be on Firstake in about 2 minutes to share his opinion about the Superbowl.

 

 

Recap:

 

Cam picked the Broncos to win because Peyton Manning has been playing on an elite level throughout the season. Stephen A. Smith said that he was proud of Cam for stepping up this season because he was about to be tossed aside by the other young quarterbacks, such as RG3, Andrew Luck, Russell Wilson, and Colin Kaepernick. Skip said before the draft, he saw Cam as a extremely raw prospect and that his first two games in the NFL he set the bar unrealistically high in his first two games and he and a lot of people expected the Panthers to do big things in his first two seasons. Cam talks about how Mike Shula was instrumental in his growth as a leader. Stephen A says he appreciates Cam's demeanor and how he presents himself and that he is a role model to aspiring black quarterbacks. Overall Cam was very charismatic and I think it opened Skip's eyes. 

 

Side Notes: 

 

Cam said that First Take is one of the best shows of television. 

Cam said he loves Skip Bayless to death. Lol

Elaborate please.

 

he was just being nice to both skip and stephen a. lots of smiles all around.

 

talked about being a black qb. talked about wearing jeans and a tshirt at press conference being a certain type of culture and the way they are raised (i think he was talking about colin). stephen a talked about that doesnt apply to him cause he always dresses in suits, makes fun of his sweater. also talked about slang or the way they communicate. said he knows it makes people scratch there heads while saying sometimes what skip says makes him scratch his head.

 

but said at the end of the day its all about wins no matter what color you are but is really excited about the future with him, RW, rg3 and colin.

I think this interview really introduced Cam to the world. I like when he said to Skip and Smith "why are you so hard on me?". They didn't know how to answer so all they say is that "they're the only show that allow players to come on and defend themselves". And the crowd freaking love him. They couldn't stop screaming.

      Canales doesn't sound all the way sold on Bryce

      To rub salt in the wound when you look back to what were considered some of the most underwhelming resulting seasons in Panthers history before the Tepper's came along we still managed a top 20 passing offense with journeyman Matt Moore and the ghost of Jake Delhomme in 2009. And Steve Smith was 44th in the league in YAC so it was not a chunk play pass offense. Obviously the run game was dominant with Jonathan Stewart and Deangelo Wiliams but comparatively the run game in 2009 only amassed 500 more rushing yards than the 2025 Panthers in a down year for Chuba Hubbard. It shows just how comically desperate we have become to adjust standards that actually used to mean something.

      I wouldn't have picked up the option, to me he's that replaceable. I think the Panthers are taking a more cautious strategy, not ready to move on yet but also holding off on committing to him until the last possible time.  Basically, he's a competent NFL QB. He's bottom third in the league. That's actually not a terrible thing. You can win some with a bottom third QB. If over time he takes a few steps forward he might be a median level QB. I think those are the kinds of steps that Canales is talking about. If you've truly got a median level QB, it's probably worth keeping him as opposed to roll on the dice in the draft. But just to be super clear, I don't think he is capable of taking those steps, and I think we should and will move on after the season

      Unfortunately this is more wishful thinking than anything. The problem is the bar is so low for what they consider success for Bryce Young. I mean we have yet to field even a top 25 passing offense with Bryce Young heading into his fourth season and it's basically considered a when not if we begin contract extension talks with him.
