What do you want from me. An apology? Ultimately, who cares what I think, what anyone here thinks. We're fans. We have opinions. SOme of us don't like each other. It's cool.

I get it, sometimes you're wrong.

I already knew that.

 

It doesn't hurt my feelings, it just frustrates me that you haven't yet realized that my brain does not work like yours. It also annoys me that you accused me of lying only to find out that you were wrong, and yet you're still insisting that I'm not being honest about Cam. You're the one who problems not being honest, not me.

 

No, I know your brain does not work like mine, Collin. I didn't need you to tell me that.

I said you put too much on Cam, in the interest of looking like you were right with him. Our woes in the redzone, if you go back and look at the games, were largely due to penalties that took us out of position, and even some playcalling. I mean....he's not perfect, but it was not all because of Cam Newton that we struggled there.

You're saying that to grasp onto something you can hold to make your point. It's fine, but I don't agree with it, that's all. No need to make a federal case out of it.

 

Not only am I far superior intellectually, but I'm also more honest. I don't spin and I don't pull for things to happen to validate myself. I call things as I see them, and I'm almost always correct as a result.

 

No, the play-calling has been more than fine. The main problem in the redzone has been Newton's inaccuracy and limited ability to anticipate which receiver will be getting open. As Piper said, he has been better at that the last couple of games, so hopefully that continues to improve. Newton is responsible, though.

Do you understand the significance of you accusing me of lying only to have to admit that you were the one who was wrong? You don't have any right to say that I'm wrong or that I'm lying or that I'm being unfair to any player. You don't have any credibility at all when it comes to anything about me. I am not you. I do not root against players or coordinators the way that you do. I don't spin results to support a position.

 

The depth of your willingness to delude yourself and restructure reality to protect you from conscious realizations of your own fallibility suggests that you have been deeply mentally and emotionally damaged by such confrontations in the past. You can no longer deal with your mistakes, so your mind pretends that they don't exist.

 

No, the playcalling could use work. When we completely ignore two capable running backs at the goal line as much as we do, it's not more than ok.

Chud is awesome as gold 'n' shit, but there have been some serious issues in the red zone.

 

Actually Stewart is being used at pretty much the same rate he always has. DeAngelo has seen a lot less use inside the redzone, but a big part of that is Newton being used as a runner. The play-calling has not been a problem.

 

Cam has not been THE problem. The playcalling has not been THE problem.

Both have, however, been a part of the problem. If you think how we ran the redzone offense has been perfect, I'm not sure what you've been watching. As much as you dogged Cam unfairly in the beginning of the season, you're putting equal undue praise on Chud now. He's good. He's not mistake free though.

 

Cam has been the main problem in the redzone. Really, just don't argue with me. You've proven that you can't be honest about my comments because you want to pretend that I'm not being fair so that you can act like everyone else has the same flaws that you do.
