The other NFC South ESPN staff writers agree on Julio being the divisions best offensive player......except for David Newton.  While trying to temper your Panthers homerism, what say you?  Agree with Newton or the other writers?  Or a different player all together?

Best WR?  Yeah I see that.

Best Offensive player?  idk... is he a better offensive weapon than Cam?

Probably not, but its hard to say. Cam has spent most of his career running for his life with no one to throw to. 

 

Who knows what he can really do?

The Panthers are winning because of Cam, how are the Falcons doing with JJ?

and yeah, Luke is the best players on field in most games. Amazing for as young as he is.

It's almost like there are 10 other guys on the field at one time that help determine how well a team does...

Kind of why these positional comparisons are kind of dumb imo...  can you really compare a WR to a QB?  QB has a lot more chances to impact a game.

First, fug you guys for getting me to click a ESPN link.

 

Jones is probably a top 4 WR in the league. 
Outside of the game where he killed Green Bay, what other games has he taken over? (honest question)

 

Hard for me to say there is a harder to defend player than Cam Newton.

I agree with this.  It's apples to oranges.  DN might be a little loony sometimes, but he has a solid argument here.

Also known as the game where Green Bay dropped like 38 on them in the first half (38-0 IIRC) , and then just sat back and coasted the rest of the game where Julio tore up a defense that quite literally wasn't even trying anymore.

Falcons and Julio fans have turned that performance, and game, into some sort of myth.  It was annoying how big of a deal they tried to make that game out to be afterwards... lmao I've literally never seen garbage time and stats get bragged about so much.  A game they lost.

They even tried to use that as a reason they were going to whip our asses week 17 last year.

      Steelers Trade WR Pickens to the Cowboys

      By Toomers · Posted

      My feeling on Howard is that’s he has everything Dart has. And has played in different offenses. Dart only knows where Lane Kiffen schemed up. I think y’all experienced Corral enough to know. Good value even if he can become backup at any time.

      Steelers Trade WR Pickens to the Cowboys

      By Toomers · Posted

      I wanted to see some thoughts on the trade and got some insight on my Steelers. A lot of it I can’t argue with. In the horrible position of not good enough to compete but too good to tank. With no QB plan for present or future.      Signing Fields would have bought them one-two years to search and if he continues improving like last year, then problem solved. And he doesn’t prevent them from taking a 1st rounder who gets in the range of their pick. But Tomlin screwed him over and he bolted. Now Rodgers is probably coming, and they will finish 9-8. It’s time to move on from Tomlin or they’ll be in same position for a decade.     Pickens was gone the second they gave DK his contract. Thought of the Panthers but y’all took care of that and he’s the last thing Bryce needs. Offense should be fun to watch and defense….well.. I think if defense is average you win South.

      If Rodgers doesn't sign "I fully expect him to do so", watch Will Howard go out and throw for 3600 yards with 25td and 10int and the Steelers are 11-6 and in the Playoffs with a QB and having not spent much on him. lol
