REPORT: Ronnie Pitts to rape Cam Newton poster

[mraynrand]

The guy just set two NFL records in his first two games as a pro, stop being fucking nitpick. Not to mention the guy had no OTAs and did it against the World Champs. Of course your going to have INTs when you ask a rookie to throw it 40+ times with no help from the running game.

It was an impressive start for a rookie, but 3 INTs is not nitpicking. Guy also is behind a pretty good O line. It's exciting, but don't overdo it. If I were a Carolina fan, I'd be excited about the future, but I'd want my coach to call fewer running plays for my QB so the dude can last.

HA!

Losing the game and throwing three INTs (and several other errant passes that hit defenders) is "nitpicking?"

But throwing for a buttload of pointless yards is "great?"

Someone's got a case of the fansies!

They aren't winless because of him. The coaches need to do a better job of having a more balanced offensive attack instead of relying on a rookie to throw it 40 times a game.

I agree to an extent. they are winless because they aren't a good team. Cam is a typical rookie thrown in with minimal camp experience. A few WOW plays and many WTF plays. He may get better, he may not.

You and all these gabas are hella racist. I didnt see you or the bitch ass announcers say anything when ARod did (they showed him real quick on the sidelines with a towel on the exact same way). Im thinking it was just fucking humid and that felt good on their domes.

I thought he had some negative body language going on when things weren't going their way. He's not as bad as Cutler. But guys still don't want to see their leader tightening up like that on the sideline when you're a little up against it.

I'd give him a B-. He might be doing better in a different system. Carolina is clearly putting the whole thing on his back.

The yardage really doesn't impress me. There are a lot of guys who could rack up way more yardage than that if they don't have to stop chucking it till they hit 4 INT's for the game. Cam got bailed out of his 2nd INT by the refs last week. He threw at least 4 this week, with 3 of them being caught by Packers. I didn't see him throwing balls away when the coverage dictated it. Though I saw nothing that isn't correctable. He looks pretty promising.

Cam could check down more. He's not consistently accurate enough yet to be throwing into tight windows. Take what the defense gives you, and throw a couple away when guys like Charles Woodson are daring you to throw at them when he's got help over the top.

Overall He has 3 td's 4 ints and a shit load of yards. What indicates a high potential, higher than I thought he would have, is a completion % of 62.7 with a average of 10.3 yrds per. Those are good numbers for a rookie. This does not make him an all star yet, but if allowed to develop he has a lot of potential.

This. But as SC says, its all pretty standard fare for a good quarterback with a cannon for an arm. Stafford might be a comparable case.

How bout a comparison to Favre?

Can you imagine Holmy letting Bert go hog wild and chuck it up like that during his first season as starter? Remember how often he was right up in his grill after a bad play?

Who's doing that on the Panther staff?

Actually, during games I remember him being pretty calm, considering. I know he explicitly turned over day to day management to Mooch so he and Favre didn't butt heads constantly. But everyone talks about Holmgren's temper in these situations. So I suspect the real blowups were behind the scenes. I do remember one occasion (think it was discussed during that Mike Holmgren coaching tree show on ESPN) that Holmgren was all but threatening Mooch with new job responsibilities if he didn't get Favre on the correct page.

And there is more than one way to do this, McCarthy, despite talking about having a pretty good temper himself, has done OK with AR, Flynn and Harrell. I don't think a strong arm means you are as stubborn as a mule.

The guy broke the NFL record for most passing yards in the first two games of a season not just for rookies but ALL-TIME! Then 4 hours later Tom Brady broke that record but that's beside the point. The guy got picked off twice by Charles Woodson, that's going to happen when you ask a rookie to throw it 40+ times but every play he knew where to go with the ball and never threw into double coverage. He has to work on his accuracy but you have to give the guy an A rating so far for what he has done. BTW dude also lead the Panthers in rushing that game.

You are a racist fanboy.

I added it to my "quickster" cue earlier today. Thanks for the memory recall.
