They just signed Cam Newton to a one year deal, too bad for Jarrett Stidham he is demoted from starter to backup, but I'm sure their fans will cheer that they have a seasoned quarterback in the starting line up.
I'd consider it a good thing for Stidham. I think he's a solid guy, but probably not quite ready to carry a professional team. Let him sit for a bit and learn. Even if he's behind both Newton & Hoyer. They can reevaluate a week or two before the bye and see if its time to throw the kid into the fire or not.
He's not my favorite guy, but I'd have been happy to see him come to the Fins on a similar deal.
Assuming that injuries haven't rendered Cam non-functional, I'm sad to see him as a Patriot. I'd rather see him on a team that is making an attempt to field an offense.
Meursault: Funny, what team exactly offers Cam Newton a better "one year" opportunity to showcase what ability he has left behnd a formidable offensive line (when all their lineman are healthy). If he had a better offer, he didn't take it!
It is a shame that Belicheat suddenly forgot how to get a team to achieve after the departure of the savant and the retiree.
They picked him up for the league minimum with incentives. Sounds like they are taking a flyer in the hopes of finding some former magic. Sorry to say but Cam Newton is hardly exciting.
