Cam Newton: A Franchise QB?

[rayzor]

It's only 'edgy and contrarian' on this site.

To some, that means something.

If cam had this Oline or these weapons or that coaching or played in this division...

Jesus Christ, we get it...it gets old, no one cares outside of the huddle and it makes everyone look like whiny bitches.

Sorry I don't mean to be so 'contrarian' or 'keep it real' to the point you can't handle it.

Get a grip.

 

talk about whining.

i get the feeling that most commenting in here didn't read the article and are only reacting to the thread title.

very true.

the pats and colts have always had their records inflated because of the weak divisions they were in. i mean they were talented, but i don't think as talented as their records would lead you to believe they were.

we might find ourselves in the same situation for a while.

Yeah, but at least the Patriots win in the playoffs. They're playing in their 6th Super Bowl & looking for their 4th championship since 2001. Indy gets blown out annually in January. Peyton lucked into playing Rex freaking Grossman in the SB, otherwise he'd be Marino 2.0.

To me, when he gets the help and the mechanics fixed, he is going to be one of the best.   He needs consistency.  Can he play with the best?  YES.  Does he consistently?  No.  This year (and offseason) needs to be eliminating the reasons he does not play consistently and find the support to help him overcome that label.

That was a nice well writen  article and the writer had his stas down pat. I was a little suprised that Cam compared favorably with Luck and Wilson stat wise,considering the lack of talent that has surrounded him and his injury ridden season this past year.

[MadHatter]

Short answer is yes... yes he is

Based on the stats listed for a QB, the answer is yes.

I want to give Cam another weapon or two at WR and a better rated OT duo. Then, I think you can use wins as another valid metric.

Funny how the topic becomes "tired", only when an independent, third party lays out a very well reasoned and fact supported argument SUPPORTING our QB. Lol I'm starting to think certain posters are seriously not wrapped too tight.

[WOW!!]

Very good article.

It's crazy how a third party person with no agendas.

Can see things so clear. While some Panthers fans who have watched him carry a offense for 4 years can't.

I wouldnt complain and i also wouldnt use that as an execuse for luck or brady or past qbs in those divisions. They dont choose their schedules the nfl does and it really doesnt matter who you play in the nfl they are all pros. Not to mention that is only 6 games out of 16, granted it makes it easy to reach the playoffs in a weak conference but if they were truely bad they wouldnt win 10 or more games consistently.

The more threads of this nature appear, the more it begins to look like a bunch of Panther fans desperately trying to convince themselves or someone else.
