QB Controversy Brewing in Carolina?
#1
or just media hyperbole?



Has Cam Newton Lost the Carolina Panthers QB Job to Kyle Allen? It's POSSIBLE
What I can tell you with certainty is that no decision has been made about what happens when Newton is healthy again.
What one Panthers team source said Sunday after they beat Tampa Bay 37-26 was this: "No one really saw this coming, and now it's a tough decision."
One AFC general manager tells me he believes the trade market for Newton would be robust, and maybe as many as 10 teams would be interested. The concern teams have, this GM said, is Newton's health.
There are other teams, however, that think Newton has little left. Front-office personnel for these teams also believe that the Panthers privately think this as well.
Allen's play is why the speculation about Newton's future has dramatically intensified. NFL Network's Willie McGinest said during the pregame show that this is now Allen's team and that Newton won't be back this year or next. Ian Rapoport of the same network reported (also during the pregame) that if Carolina keeps winning, then Allen could keep the job. Well, the Panthers won again.

Well, maybe Cam launches his career as a fashion designer sooner rather than later...

Lol. He would have a corner on a certain market.

Maybe Cam will be working on his accuracy during his down time.  Wink

Why would they to bench Allen unless they want to start losing again?

I think the QB "change" already happened. It's Allen's team now.

I'd be shocked. Newton is still the guy but it shows what can happen with a more traditional style QB. Allen was a very highly touted high school QB.

Todd Bowles told us in our pre-broadcast meeting that the Allen-QBed team presented more of a challenge to defend than the Week 2 Cam QBed team. Said, among other issues, Allen finds his outlets better

Cam's a running back dressed up as a quarterback.  Or maybe just dressed up in funny hats.   10 teams are interested?!   I doubt it.
