38 page thread on the Giants forum - Who would you rather have? Cam or Eli?

[MVPccaffrey]

I honestly can't think of a single thing Eli does better.  Didn't he just have a 27 INT season like a year or two ago?  Not to mention for such a great QB he's missed the playoffs extremely often

Isnt that what we said we would do when Cam blossomed into the MVP we thought he would be?

Oh yeah. Of course. Like I said, I'm doing the exact same thing. I have a folder of bookmarks just to NFL team message boards that I check every day on my lunch break. Sad? Maybe. Fun? Yes.

a 35 year old qb or a 26 year old qb about to win the MVP award

 

why is this a question?

[LinvilleGorge]

Maybe after Cam wins the MVP and hopefully has a ring our fanbase can stop being so insecure about Cam.  Let other fanbases talk, who cares?  We have the best young QB in the game.  That's the most valuable asset you can possibly have.

The only knock on Cam (and it's a big one) is that one season does not a career make. The respect won't come until Cam repeats his success year to year.

Even then, there are plenty of fans who refuse to change their mind about Cam because they can point to the defense and run game and claim he's "carried" by his team. It's a lazy way to avoid admitting they were wrong.

It's not a coincidence that all of the pieces came together for Cam in the first season that the Panthers put an NFL caliber OL in front of him.

Who gives a fug about them.

rofl  

 

ELI  years 2 -6  ( omitted rookie year only started 9 games)

 

17,601 yds   119 TD  79 INT   3 rushing TD

 

Cam  years 1-5

18,263 yds  117 TD  64 INT   43 rushing TD

 

yeah......some of them are right ......*sarcasm warning* ELI is SO MUCH MORE OF  A PURE PASSER  Much more refined. Just plain ole better.........LMAO

[pantherclaw]

Eli would fail here.

[Semaj]

Wish I didn't hit the link. Same old haters different day.  To be fair there is a small presence that is pro Cam but I am not going to read through all of those pages.  And yeah as one of them said, once they get game tape of Cam and the Panthers its over.  Apparently, Next year is going to be a rough one guys.

Cam can do anything that Eli can do, do it better and still do things Eli could never dream about.

Whoever started that thread over there is not very smart.

Cam played better than the greats this year, including Brady and Rodgers, and he has less weapons than either of them.

I truely think that Cam reinvented himself this off season. I dont know what he did, but he clearly has practiced a ton and has dedicated himself to greatness.

We all knew he had a high ceiling, that he just had to attain it... but I dont know if I ever would have considered him the best QB in the NFL. It is unreal.

I agree with you. I was just referring to what was protecting Eli in NY. (Nothing)!!!!

Yes, something has really changed Cam, and it for the good!!!

[rippadonn]

Cam has passing and rushing records already.

What Eli does best is only one component of Cams whole game.

of course no one here would take Eli over Cam, especially considering their ages. but let's not pretend if we did have Eli, we would try to run the same offense either.

Even if you took away the Run component, you can make an argument Cam is/has been a better QB than Eli.

Note: I'm including Eli at his best, and Eli at his worst (for the past several seasons, except this year). Why are we always so quick to default to the run component when comparing Cam?

However/of course, those who would take Eli will do so because of his two Superbowl's titles, and rightfully so.
