When Bryce Young was benched following a tough 0-2 start, Carolina Panthers fans began questioning their young quarterback's future. However, one of the most prominent voices in Panthers history, Cam Newton, stepped forward to offer his support. On his "4th&1" podcast, Newton made it clear: Bryce Young isn't the problem.

"We can condemn Bryce Young all we want," Newton stated. "Bryce can't say how he really feels, so I'm going to speak for him." Newton went on to suggest that Young is likely dealing with a lack of confidence, but he also pointed to larger issues within the team's infrastructure. This insight struck home with fans who recall Newton's own turbulent time with Carolina.

Newton highlighted a point that many fans have echoed: stability. "The only person that I've seen some type of consistency is the owner," he said, referring to David Tepper. Newton's comments underscored how Young, like Newton before him, has been thrown into an unstable system, with a revolving door of coaches and GMs. Young's struggles, Newton believes, are tied to this lack of continuity.

Newton also praised Young's proven track record, reminding fans that the No. 1 pick has been a winner at every level. From high school championships to a Heisman Trophy and a national title with Alabama, Young has the talent to succeed. According to Newton, what Young needs is the right support system to help him rediscover his confidence.

As Cam Newton continues to champion Bryce Young, his message to the Panthers is simple: give him the tools to win.
