What a comment... When someone says, "Tyrod has nothing on Lamar Jackson..." and I reply with, "Tyrod has proven he can be successful in the NFL", you've already lost the argument. So you have to resort to these type of responses. You can't rebut the truth.

Tyrod's gone. Some are happy some are sad. The guy played hard for this team and helped win a bunch of games. I'm getting very bored by all the negativity regarding T Mobile. He's gone, you can be happy. Let's move on and show some respect. 1

Please tell me/the rest of us how Jackson fits into what Beane is looking for, especially when compared against the other QBs...I'm not being a dick either. I seriously don't see it... I mean Beane was fairly specific. He does have experience with Cam in the CAR front office and from the Washington post last year ( know beane was here, but this wasn't a cooked up plan that happened right before Beane left either). One of the absolute biggest, and one that gets swept under the rug because of Newton’s obvious drop in passing stats, is their quarterback being used as a runner. On designed runs for the quarterback that weren’t kneels or sneaks in 2015, Newton averaged 5.5 yards per carry (on 74 attempts) and scored eight touchdowns. In 2016, those designed runs netted the Panthers only 4.5 yards per carry (66 attempts) and five touchdowns. In 2017, he has only four carries for seven yards through three weeks. Put simply, the Panthers aren’t running with Cam Newton any more. And when they do, defenses have caught up schematically. They are no longer surprised when Jonathan Stewart turns into a lead blocker for Newton and aren’t leaving themselves a man short to stop the run. With added defenders keen on paying attention to the run, though, it should theoretically leave Newton with more room to work in the passing game. This is the part of Newton’s regression that is easy to see in the box score. His completion percentage dropped 6.9 points from 2015 (59.8) to 2016 (52.9), and his adjusted completion percentage – which adds in drops and takes out throwaways, spikes, batted passes and passes where the QB was hit in his throwing motion – hasn’t fared any better. He went from 71.5 percent in 2015 to 65.4 percent, dead last in the NFL, in 2016. Somewhere in the Panthers’ organization, they made a conscious effort to address that this offseason. With so many incomplete passes, it was difficult for the Panthers to sustain drives. So they drafted underneath passing threats in Christian McCaffrey and Curtis Samuel, and Newton currently has the second-highest completion percentage of his career (61.4). The switch hasn’t fixed the problem, though — it’s actually made it worse. Newton’s average depth of target has dropped from 10.9 and 11.0 in 2015 and 2016 (two of the highest figures in the league) to 8.4 this year. And those underneath throws he’s now making were actually his weakest throws a season ago. In terms of true accuracy (putting the ball on a receiver’s frame), Newton was the third-most-inaccurate screen thrower, second-most-inaccurate when asked to lead a receiver horizontally across the field and second-most-inaccurate on throws one to five yards down the field in 2016. The offense now asks him to do more of that. Accuracy isn’t a static quantity, though; Newton doesn’t struggle everywhere. In fact, he was the second-most-accurate quarterback in the NFL when aiming at stationary or slowly moving receivers exploiting a hole in zone coverage down the field.

TheElectricCompany Posted March 27, 2018 Posted March 27, 2018 Thank you for stating the obvious Coach. Yes, elite QBs in this league, even the ones that can scramble and make plays with their feet, are able to "drop back and throw". Man, you guys will take anything these two say and just run with it...

I guess it just comes w the territory. It can totally go too far, but I think that's when it hits a personal level and it's generally snuffed out pretty quick. It's an exciting time with a lot of very excited fans. Potential QB years always are. Hopefully we have fun and no panties get bunched in the mean time!

Shotgun you would have a 1-3 steps while under center it's 3-7? It can be, it depends on how you look at it. If I hear drop back in regards to the QB, I certainly think more about the Norv Turner classical under center, 5/7 step drop scheme. That's just me though. If Sean actually said that it's a passing league, that would remove the ambiguity of the statement. To each their own, I guess.

Are you okay that I look at it is drop back from either the gun or under center? I used to never ask for permission and now I do after being married....its ingrained in me now.
