Wayne, Hilton, Fleener, Allen, Moncrief, Nicks, and Bradshaw.

 

Reggie Wayne has 434 yards                    Cotchery has 375 yards

 

Moncrief has 216 yards                              Avant has 193 yards

 

The combo of Allen and Fleener has 544 yards                     Olsen has 539 yards

 

Hakeem Nicks has 168 yards                             Philly Brown has 113 and Bersin has 104

 

Stewart and Williams are far superior to Bradshaw. Bradshaw is just OK, nothing more.

 

Meanwhile the Colts offensive line has been very nearly as terrible as Carolina's.

 

Yes, Hilton is better than Benjamin...but Benjamin ain't no slouch.

 

And yet, while Cam Newton has 7 300 yard passing games in his entire career...

 

Andrew Luck has 7 300 yard passing games in 8 starts this season and 9 in his last 10 games including 400 + in a playoff win last year.

 

And to top it off, Carolina and Indy pass the football on an almost identical percentage of their offensive plays.

 

The only place the Cam Vs. Luck debate exists is in the deluded mind of the nuthugger.

 

If you asked the question of fans throughout the country, they would look at you like you were crazy.

 

And they'd be right.

How many screens has Cam not missed cos of his throws? We have complained about it here on this very board in game threads. Don't call those easy.

How many times has the defense got in so fast that even a screen was render impossible??

Plus again 100+ more pass attempts mean usually means more easy passes.

Again, last season, Ryan had a worse oline. You are the one saying his high completion came due to screens. If his line was worse, how did he complete those screens?

 

Screens are designed to allow the defense get in anyways...

Deanglo and Stewart both were hurt.

Also are truly trying to say Luck doesn't have a better supporting cast?? Really? ??

 

Cam had more weapons in his rookie year than Luck but Luck was able to do more. The only "weapon" Luck has on Cam the last two years will be Hilton. Dude is very good but apart from that, there is no other player on Luck's team better than anyone we had.

Since Tony only shows up when Cam has had bad games this will be a brief.

More passing attempts for Luck

Pep Hamilton is w as y BETTER then Shula.

And you're crazy if you think more talent and ability isn't a plus

Cotch doesn't demand the attention or have the skills of Wayne, Nicks or Moncrief.

The Cam vs Luck argument is really meaningless as Cam is under contract with us and Luck with them blah, blah, blah.

Sure if the Colts called and wanted to trade straight up I'd do it in a heart beat after due diligence.

It's like the Jordan vs Kobe argument a few years ago, who's better. Really doesn't matter as it relates to the Lakers then as Jordan was selling underwear at the time and Kobe was winning championships.

 

Only thing that matters is how Cam plays for us and how could he be better. Can and will the FO do that?

Let's meet the Colts in the Super Bowl and beat their asses.

Just for the record too, Trent Richardson the Colts #2 back has as many rushing yards as 28 and 34 combined.

You are smoking crack if you think his weapons aren't better. Or his coaching and the fact he plays in a week division and double Cam in attempts.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      That's fine but for every Kurt Warner there are 10 Tony Banks that don't find their spot because....it never really existed.  Jake Browning was on and off practice squad teams for years until he stuck in Cincy. In his limited action over the past two seasons, he has played well enough that the Bengals panic traded for 41 year old Joe Flacco. It's easy to point to outliers like Warner or Purdy or Tom Brady as players who fell through the cracks because....well, they are outliers. The statistics over the long term have never really borne out the argument that every QB is just waiting for their perfect spot and situation. Most of these guys bounce around the league and it just never really clicks anywhere or they become marginal backup QB's. I don't think that exactly an accident. It's tough to be a starting NFL QB and it's why the hunt every offseason is so frantic. There are just so few that do it at a high level. My guess is that a theoretical market for Bryce Young(today) is going to look a lot like that post Chicago Justin Fields market. Not a lot of interest and a late round pick value at the highest. And a lot of that IS going to be his average to below average physical traits. It's extremely tough to be in that range and excel in the NFL. And it's precisely because you DO have to be closer to perfection to make up for the fact that you can't do a lot of the things that the elite to above average starters in this league do.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By Seltzer · Posted

      Im never not impressed by how confidently wrong you are. I've watched probably 200 NFL QBs play live. This talk about Bryce's arm strength is retarded, pure and simple. Bryce can make every throw an NFL QB needs to make in any circumstance. Does he have an arm that makes you go wow all the time? No, but very few QBs truly do. Bryce has plenty of zip on the ball when he wants. That TD to XL was a frozen rope. He throws to the opposite hash and outside all the time with no problem. Bryce's arm is objectively stronger than Cam's post-injury. I've seen both live multiple times and I know. And Cam could still play QB well without his rocket launcher. OPs point remains. QB success relies on a lot of nebulous things. Obviously you dont like Bryce. But his success is not going to be bc he doesn't have the arm strength. Its embarrassing this is a thing. Go to some games and actually educate yourself.

      Where do you fall on the Bryce Young spectrum?

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      I personally think Bryce is going to be an extremely good Quarterback for a long time. If you look at modern QB development, it just takes a while. The extreme athletes can get by early, but if you look at the trajectories of guys the last 10 years, were seeing a lot of slow-cooking. Jared Goff, Geno Smith, Baker, Sam Darnold, Trevor Lawrence. The list is long.  The guys that were truly special from Day 1 is an extremely short list. The list of things that college quarterbacks are responsible for gets shorter by the day with the transfer portal, and the college offenses. The list of things that NFL Quarterbacks are responsible for seems to get longer and longer each season.  I saw an interview the other day in which a rookie quarterback and center were calling plays for the offense.  I can't remember the team or the Quarterback, but I definitely remember the clip. It takes time, even for the smartest and most gifted, and the reality is, we have no idea how good or bad the coaching may be until we hear things we aren't supposed to hear anyway.  Bryce isn't perfect, but I saw in another thread, his biggest struggle is risk/reward. That is something I only expect him to improve upon. His adjustments, ability to read a defense, and execution have been extremely good considering our rosters in his tenure here. Our offensive personnel and coaching were both so poor his rookie year that I'm not sure it's fair to properly evaluate that at all. Since that time, all we've seen from him is growth and progress.
