NFL.com Year End QB Rankings

This is maddening. I'm one who thinks Luck is vastly overrated so to see him ranked with the Elites while Cam is mid-pack despite early musings of MVP consideration is painful. Give Luck, or 90% of QB's, the OC, OL and receivers Cam was burdened with and see where they wind up.

Cam had his struggles, but he started the season behind the 8 - ball and still managed to win when it mattered most.

He has a chance Saturday to shut up some critics.

Andrew Luck is an average QB. He is a product of the AFC South, just like Peyton Manning was before him. There's a reason they both put up gaudy regular season numbers then crumble in the playoffs. Luck gets to play HOU, TEN, & JAX twice each season. Almost half of his games are against teams that have been bottom 5 franchises in the NFL for over a decade.

Vs AFCS: 16-2 W/L, 35 TD, 15 Tov

Vs Rest: 17-13 W/L, 63 TD, 41 Tov

The media has been in love with Luck since college. It's called propaganda, Luck gets the good kind, Cam, not so much.

Cam was demonized by the media for laptops and getting paid to play. They're not going to do an about face and give him some respect until he wins a ring, maybe.

Get used to it.

    • I like what Freeling brings to the table all around. If he is willing to put in the work he has an opportunity to be one of the better Tackles in the league down the line. Hunter Brazzell and Hecht are all premium additions but development from our staff are the key to unlocking them. Hopefully Lee and Wheatley will provide much needed additional depth to our secondary. Beyond that it's important not to get too caught up in draft grades. Many drafts over the years that turned out to be really good were not fawned over with praise. While some that were ended up being historical duds. Panthers fans ought to know this as well as anyone. In conclusion...
    • Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
