Already we are seeing what impact the Smith release has had on the team. Cam has been upping his leadership role all morning long in interviews. Cam sounding a bit more like the man in control of this offense.

I am excited about this season. Things were shaken up a bit ( I won't lie the smith release hurt) but I am excited to see how we respond next season. I believe we are going to have our first back to back winning season. That is what Gettleman is setting us up for. Repeat sucess and not just a run every couple years.

^ yes but Cam is a little bit different then other athletes/politicians/ect.

in other words he has been rising to the occasion since he was in high school.

Of course he's different and I pray it actually happens. Im just thinking back to the thousands and thoysands of times athletes have said this same type of thing in press-conferences and post game interviews.

Cam is unbelievably talented and obviously wants to will this team to victory. Now is his time. With Cam at the helm, a top-3 defense, and Gett's out of cap hell (soon), im in love with the future potential of this team

Very possible.  Sometimes you get two ultra-competitive, alpha male types on the same project, you expect it to go well but they don't completely click quite like you'd hope.

 

I've been waiting for Newton to have his 'takeover' moment when he placed himself firmly in charge.  For Delhomme that occurred on his first drive in the Jacksonville game.  Jake came in, took charge of the huddle and led them down the field for a score.  From that point on, the team would have followed him through the gates of Hell.

 

There have been a couple of moments where I thought that might happen for Cam, but till now I sill haven't really felt it.  And it may indeed be that Steve's presence made that difficult.

 

I guess we'll see what happens this season.

Steve smith was a cheap excuse..

 

You don't become a leader by eliminating the strong egos, they must be convinced.

This is the difference between a leader and a shepherd..

 

A leader will lead both the sheeps and the wolves.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      More so than the stats it was against that killer defense in their own stadium, the same defense that made Mahomes look like a total JAG in the SB. The way Bryce handled adversity all game was simply phenomenal , the off script play in the end zone, scrambling out of a sack/safety to find XL deep was one of the best plays we have seen out of a Panthers QB on what should have been a game winning drive

      He’s about to be 0-12 in the conference finals and we’ve been outscored 16-4 in this series after only losing 2 games the previous two rounds and looking really in control of the series. There’s major red flags here as to why he seems so overmatched once he gets to a certain level. There comes a point where “just getting there” isn’t good enough. We are at that point.

      RODS gotta GO

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Listening to the post-game, and holy poo! Has Rod ever said, "this one's on me." When asked about composure, he threw Staal and Martinook under the bus. "Those 2 can't be your best players." Disregarding that he didnt answer the question, does he realize how that sounds to professional athletes? When asked how you prepare for game 4, "I'm not even thinking about that." Clearly, Rod.
