Chip Kelly: "It's like Eddie George that can throw."

Kelly can't blame defenses for coming after Newton, who's 6-foot-5 and weighs 260 pounds, like they would a running back.

"The designed quarterback runs, the quarterback counters, the quarterback powers, you know, you saw those," Kelly said of how Carolina used Newton against Denver. "You know you really have to be prepared for it because Cam is unlike any other quarterback in the league.

"He's a second running back back there. ... It's like Eddie George that can throw. You know, it's a tough task for any defense.

I think he means that it's fine to hit him and treat him like that, but just don't aim at the head or the knees. 

If Cam has the ball tucked and is beyond the line of scrimmage then hits to the head or knees are actually completely legal.

I don't like how they keep comparing him to running backs. It's annoying.

HE'S A QUARTERBACK!!!

To be fair, to the point he's making, he's right. You can't run power runs and QB draws and read options and love that it's a part of what makes Cam special but then complain that he's compared to running backs. 

If you want to blame someone, blame the staff for using him like one.

    • The OP for one. Asserting that people blamed Bryce for the loss in the title of the thread. That was not the prevailing sentiment at the time this thread was created. Very much a minority thing, I don’t remember but maybe one person if that, putting it on Bryce as the main reason. Troll thread. Did a good job too. Look at the pages.  Someone counting up the draft picks as 10 on offense and 10 on defense or whatever the number was, today or yesterday - of which the offensive ones were heavily 1s and 2s and the defensive picks were heavily day 3 and declaring that proof that the offense wasn’t favored like people claim. The obvious neglect we watched for two years. I spent time refuting that bullshit because someone needed to.  People saying we are bad horrible people and hate poor lil Bryce for no reason, as if it is a personal thing. Constantly.   Along the same lines is people saying we non Bryce fans would rather lose than have him play well and the team wins. That we are mad when the team wins   Point illustrated.       
    • Pretty sure he hasn’t 
    • Might not have been in this specific thread... As far as the other, I'm not necessarily reading every post that isn't responding to me so I don't think I saw that. Mind you, we've certainly seen the "not a real fan" stuff on here before.
