I'd much rather have a stationary QB that can throw it 15 yards on point than a running one that can throw it 30 yards in a general direction. outside of highlights he won't bring much to the table as far a winning games.

 

even in 2013 he took more of a game manager role and let the defense do all the work.

 

Keep your generic smack comments in the sub forum where they belong.

Who says accuracy and running ability are mutually exclusive?

 

Remember Steve Young?

Not in the context of today's NFL. The only mobile great passer is Wilson. and even at that he's only runs when absolutely needed.  It's not a primary threat like it is for Cam/Kap/RG3 etc. 

 

Kaepernick and RG3 I'll give you, but Newton's worked very hard on being a passer first.

 

A lot of last year's running was necessitated by OL issues.  If that's fixed this year, I think you'll see changes.

We'll see. If he can truly be a consistent passer he'll probably be the best offensive weapon in the league.

Top Whatever ranking lists pretty much always are.

 

You say Peyton Manning is ranked higher in the Top 100 than Aaron Rodgers?  Big deal.  I'd still take either one.

 

People act like it's some huge insult, but honestly so what? I don't really give a flying rip where my team's QB or MLB or WR or whomever rank on some arbitrary list as long as they win games.

 

I care a small degree, frankly because I think it matters to a small degree. This is usually where you look at me like Im crazy, but bare with me if you will a second.

 

Did Michael Jordan Kobe and Lebron get "star" fouls? Dont they get a little special treatment from time to time, more or less? Does this happen in all sports more or less?

 

Well thats directly applicable to these popularity contest lists. The more Cam becomes a household name, the more likely it is that he will get that illegal contact to the QB's head call. The more they put down the Panthers the more likely theyre willing to give that Luke/Brady play at the end of the Pats game back to the Pats and say FIRST N GOAL NEW ENGLAND. Fortunately Luke already had a growing name and the result was "Nope Tommy T.T*, your pass was underthrown"

 

The hard truth is that games are influenced by media/fan reactions. Not "decided by". . influenced.

 

So many huddlers are quick to point at others here like they have an inferiority complex. Its not a complex. These are true circumstances that we have witnessed many times. It would be very presumptuous for anyone to point fingers and claim that another is insecure for that reason.

I can buy that the' stars get the calls', but I seriously doubt professional refs pay attention to internet lists.

      I thought he started to develop good chemistry with Coker over the last half of the season.

      To put it in perspective, this is a deep ball thrower. Notice how the efficiency basically has minimal drop off regardless of range. This is Bryce Young The other QB is Joe Burrow.

      It really isn't though If you were to go out to a bar every week of the season, even to just watch one batch of games, i.e. just the 1 pm or just the 4 pm, and spent only $30 a week, you're looking at $540 bucks, $510 if you're just going for the 17 weeks your team is playing, assuming no national games. Also, from past experience, it's hard to spend only 30 bucks if you're at a bar for 3+ hours to watch the game.  Even just a small appetizer, a meal, and say 2 beers was going to run you $40ish, and that was back in 2019 when I used to go to BWW to watch all our games pre the Covid year when I just started finding streams and stuck with that until YouTube got the package from DirecTV. At $450 for a full season, to be able to watch every game, to be able to make your own quad box, to be able to switch between the sound for any game (at a bar in Michigan, I would never get to hear the commentary on our games)... It's really not a bad deal, and that's if you're only watching your team's games.  If you're a fantasy football junkie like myself, then it's a flat out steal, as depending on your TV set up, you can get every game from your fantasy matchup playing.  I do a projector with a quad box on it, a local game on the TV, and then if needed, I can put another game on my laptop and another on my phone.
