Yeah, that career comparison though :lol:

 

It's not bad when you consider it's comparing his short career to longer ones; the 'year' category is comparing his first three and four years to the first three and four years of other QBs.

cam is the most underrated player in the nfl by far.  he is also one of the most hated , other then panther fans people hate on cam big time , i cant even count how much times people tried to tell me hes a bust . every fan base hates on cam and some of these so called panther fans hate on him. 

 

personally i dont understand the hate , i believe if you take someone skills and make him have a personality like wilson or luck he would get all the respect but it comes down to this people hate on cam because his personality

I kind of forgot that Aaron Brooks existed.

He was put in the Saints Hall of Fame last year. They had a little ceremony for him and John Carney at the Dome during halftime of the Superdome. Carney got a pretty warm welcome. Brooks, not so much. Some cheers. Some boos.

The sad part is, he was a pretty decent QB who took the franchise further than they had ever been. His don't give a fug attitude just rubbed most people the wrong way. He'd throw a pick and go back to the bench laughing.

Wasn't he like a cousin to Michael Vick or something? I feel like the talking heads  said that all the time..

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
