Give Cam some top notch receivers and that Career Passer Rating goes up.  I would like to see drop rates of all of these QBs.  I would be willing to bet Cam is near the top of WR drop rate.

Why would a ‘Top 5’ QB need ‘top notch’ receivers to succeed?

Last year the Panthers had the 5th fewest drops in the league with 16. The only time they were in the top 10 in total drops oddly enough was 2015. Take that for whatever it's worth, no idea what parameters were used. 

another huddle fallacy/misconception that only Pathers receivers have drops and that affects only their QBs completion percentage. you can definitely make a point for overall quality of receivers but thats fairly obvious.

I'd like to know what Cam's passer rating is when he's finally allowed to play uptempo/nohuddle instead of 1970s football. Of course we only run it when we're down 10- 14 points in the 4th quarter. Go watch Favre's games in Minnesota when Childress was trying to make him a game manager and hand the ball to AP and see how he looked until they'd take the leash off at the end when they were down and pray he could pull it out...very similar to Cam. He plays best when he's allowed to play fast and aggressive. I don't get why that's hard for the coaches to get. Cam balled out vs New Orleans our receivers let us and him down...I don't get how anyone that looks at Cam as the major problem with our team. He's not perfect...but he's asked to carry the whole offense more than any QB in the league. Norv even said his take was the best way to help Cam improve was to get everyone else playing higher up to his level.

Of that list.... I only see 7 or 8 legitimate Hall of Fame Quarterbacks. And of those Hall of Fame QB's, Cam is not the worst.

Numbers don't lie, but people do lie about numbers. 

That’s my line,..

Yeah, QBR and evaluating Cam just doesn't really tell the whole tale of the tape. And you can't really compare him against Vick and Cunningham as a mobile QB because both, in effect, played in completely different leagues with different types of athletes (yeah, Vick's heyday was 2001 to 2006... things have changed a lot since then).

In the end, all that really matters is wins vs. losses. Cam rates pretty highly there for his career. We're darned lucky to have him and hopefully the new OC can bring him up to a new level. Basically, he has every tool you could want from a QB except reliable consistency in the passing game. If they can coach out those two to three games a year where he's just throwing wild, he'll be remembered as one of the greats of this era.

If not, then down the road he'll be lumped in with the "mobile" QBs, which is a cool subset, but not a subset that is usually thought of as great.

espn's qbr owns because it ranks david garrard's 2007 season as the 6th greatest season of all time and cam newton's mvp season 133rd of all time.

my favorite thing about qbr is that espn quietly reworked the formula after getting made fun of bc according to qbr charlie batch had the single greatest game of all time (12/17, 186 yards, 3 tds and 2 interceptions).

Garrad had a good year per stats. 65% completion. 18 tds 3 int 2,500 yards. Over 100 QR rating that year. 

I like QBR overall. Usually the top guys had good years / stats and the bottom had trash years / stats. 

Wintz, Keenum, Brady at the top this year.

      I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50.

      Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
