White-as-a-bleached-cracker Greg McElroy now thinks Cam's teammates will disrespect him

Like he pointed out, McElroy was a Bama QB (he is now a SEC Network "analyst").

Guess which Bama QB McElroy was?  He was Cam's opposite number in the 2010 Iron Bowl "CamBack" game.

And McElroy was a better NFL QB prospect than Cam according to an expert!  Which expert?  Why McElroy, of course!

But McElroy thinks he’s more ready to play in the NFL than Newton is.

Asked on the Dan Patrick Show who’s better prepared to play in the NFL of the two of them, McElroy picked himself.

“I say me,” McElroy said. “Obviously, my talent level has a much lower ceiling than Cam. That’s fair, and I respect and understand that. But I don’t think I’m the only guy in the NFL that might have that same problem — I don’t think Peyton Manning is as athletic as Cam.”

McElroy says he has an advantage over Newton because he has much more experience playing in a pro-style offense, and that he’s better than Newton at reading defenses.

“As far as understanding and processing information . . . five years down the road will he be a more productive player than me? That remains to be seen,” McElroy said. “I think with my experience in the pro-style offense, my ability to drop back from under center, make checks from the line of scrimmage without looking at the sideline, all of those things play in my corner as far as being very prepared to make the transition to the next level.”

 

 

But don't get me wrong, Bleachy MacBleachster isn't a timid guy!  He's tough as nails!  This is McElroy in his short drink of water with the NY Jets showing the defender who picked off his pass who's who (McElroy is #14)!

And when it comes to QB skills, Cam can only hope to have the field presence that Cracker McWhitey had!

 

Simply put, Cam would do well to heed the wise words of Gingery McWhitelroy!  Gingery has "big issues" with you Cam!  Be like Gingery and stop "quitting on your team"!

I don't believe that Cam quit, I think that he froze and was trying to figure out if/when/where the ball was going to pop out so that he could keep the play alive. It was a judgment call in the heat of battle.  It's not as big of a story as this guy  and others are trying to make it.

    • It’s like being on the Flyers broadcast team feed so far
    • Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.
    • I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
