Cam Released

[Brick27]

Pretty content not having that cringe, “£oOk @T m€“, king of the check-down bounce pass QB on this team.

10 of their 16 games were vs teams 18th or worse in scoring offense.

Their D is very average.

Do your homework.

You could probably say that about most teams.

 

[Brick27]

How long until race bating piece of sh*t Rob Parker blames this move on race? He’s probably hovered over a computer right now convulsing in rage while editing his 4th draft as I type this.

 

[Tony2046]

Mac is better so 2-0

I like your position previously posted. Paraphrased: He's a rookie and we need to give him time.

My position:

I'm giving him the entire season and all I want to see is growth.

I'm not expecting Tom Brady or a trip to the playoffs just be competitive and give us something to hope for.

That's fair. This team won't go far with a rookie QB even if the kid is high potential. And even if they spent a ton of cash. Anything beyond 10 wins is likely gravy.

Well they were not going to go far with Cam either, so you might as well go with the one that actually has a future on the team.

Eh he hates Brady, not really anyone else, but yeah race stuff has come up and I always tell them. The pats were the only team in the league that gave him a job. If race was an issue, why would they do that? Well that and the other 40 players that are black on the team. Considering money is involved, I doubt any coach or GM cares what color a player is if they can help their team win, and its really a stupid comment if anyone were to say it.

I said that too, and he got upset. I can go through and cherry pick any team and tell you how everything is not true. lol

When did Patsfans become BBWfans?
Doesn't do it for me

Joy Taylor or Matt Patricia?

Makes sense. He predicted it and other didn't.

As the dust settles, it occurs to me...

I once met someone who worked as an "interim rabbi." Her job was to go to a synagogue where a long-time, beloved rabbi was retiring and take over for a year while they conducted a search for a new permanent replacement. The gap year was deliberate. The idea was to give the congregants a chance adjust to the old rabbi's departure, so the new rabbi wouldn't have to fight against a tide of direct comparisons, resistance to change, and feelings of loss.

Many thanks to Cam Newton for being our interim rabbi.

That's hilarious. Except this time we're replacing Jesus with a young Billy Graham. The young kid is charismatic, he's awesome, he's mesmerising, he gives us hope and he could blossom into something amazing. But let's get real. There is only one Jesus.

I like the theory.

I was thinking about BB's well documented history of cutting players he effusively praises to the media. Cam would seem to be another chapter in that book.

BB has also said, repeatedly, that he typically tries to cut veterans he respects but sees as fringe at best players early in camp, to give them an opportunity to shine elsewhere.

When was Cam's cryptic tweet about deserving respect? Before philly IIRC? I wonder if BB gave him the option of being cut then?

I guess we need more mods here @Ian

i understand people talking bout the vax as it relates directly to Cam, but it’s ridiculous how so many scientists come out to debate studies and offer their expert-opinions in so many threads. It is impossible to ignore and it is ruining the board. I can’t read any more tonight, which sucks because this is a big day.

Not more mods. The ones that are here haven't been taking care of business if we're be honest. We don't need a mod-state by any means.

This isn't a free speech forum. It's a Pats forum. If you can't do that, you probably shouldn't be here with respect. Enough Covid talk. I haven't listened or read one post. Again some people have a hard time talking football but want to be taken seriously about Covid? Automatic scroll past. Idc what you're saying. There's 10000 other places to take that.

We should all probably try to be a little nicer to each other. Lots of tension here lately. It's not that serious.

Well they were not going to go far with Cam either, so you might as well go with the one that actually has a future on the team.

This is a point I hope people understand and one I've been making. Our ceiling wasn't SB with Cam, 6-10 with Mac. If that were the case the staff wouldn't care if Cam were drinking Covid.

Our ceiling, short & long term is higher with the better QB, Mac.

 

[Deus Irae]

I don’t get the sudden pumping up of the Dolphins either.

They're not anywhere close to the 90’s Dolphins defense.

They went 10-6 while grooming a rookie who was recovering from a career-threatening injury. They've since added 4 players chosen in the top 42 of the draft. They've got a tight end who's had 50+ catches each of the last two seasons, and have 3 WRs who, if they are anywhere near their potential this year, are each better than the best WR the Patriots can put on the field. And they had the #6 scoring defense last season.

So why would you not "get" it?

But he said he would come again

 

[DropKickFlutie]

You're way behind, this was posted a dozen times in April. Better late than never. Steal of the draft.

[NormZauchin]

Very surprised and disappointed. The kid needs time on the bench to learn the pro game. Aaron Rodgers spent 3-seasons as a back-up! 3-seasons!! He is the best QB ever and also has also hosted Jeopardy.

How many QB's have hosted Jeopardy AND won the Super Bowl?! It is an unworldly accomplishment that all NFL quarterbacks should strive for.

So I would had thought Jones would be on the bench as a back-up this season and at least into 2023 before being promoted to starter.

BB is losing it in his later years.

The Matt Patricia era can't get here soon enough.

Well, I think if Mac sat out this year he would have clearly improved his chances of hosting Jeopardy, but he probably would not have gained the experience he needs to be a better quarterback.

 

[PatsFanSince74]

Everyone should be happy. It means that we have a QB.

Anyway, back to what I was doing since I heard the good news...

From your lips to God's ears...
Long road ahead.
