What does Cam have to do to surpass Lebron in greatest athlete of this generation?

Lebron is a unique guy dominating the league the same way Cam is doing.  Cam has had the equivalent in teammates as Lebron did this year.  Obviously, he can't be expected to do everything, so what does it take for him to surpass Lebron as greatest athlete of this generation?

It’s impossible to dominate a football game like a basketball player can simply because NFL players don’t play both ways and you’re only sharing the court with 4 teammates in basketball vs. 10 in football.

As much as I don’t care for him after being a big fan back in the early 00s, the best athlete of this generation is probably Floyd Mayweather Jr.

I’d put Tiger in the conversation too it’s just hard for me to put a golfer on the high of a pedestal as an athlete.

Greatest athlete? As in Michael Phelps? As is Usain Bolt? 

Lebron  is not the greatest athlete of his generation, not by a long shot.

 

You do know Bron is being compared to MJ?  He is the leader of one of the most popular sports on the planet.

Anyone old enough to have watched MJ play should be embarrassed if they’re making that comparison. Lebron is great, but he ain’t Jordan.

Seriously. Even the eye test is a dead giveaway. Jordan was all world.

    • Well even if we took diverging paths getting there...our overall assessment of Shough is the same (bolded) lol so I guess that's what matters.  What you call "playing at a level that looks like a veteran starter" is the same thing I'm referencing when I talk about his poise.  Although I still wonder how truly "bad" of a team the Saints are.  Their defense is middle-of-the-road, and their offense does have some good pieces (Olave, Juwan Johnson) outside of running back which is the position most everyone agrees is relatively plug-and-play.  I'm not going to pretend to know anything about the majority of NFL team's o-lines lol but I'm assuming Saints are not great there, although Shough's pressure % seems to have been quite low (and steadily improving) over the last four weeks (20 -> 16.7 -> 15.0 -> 13.0) so maybe they've been playing better as of late, or perhaps Shough himself deserves credit for that.   Some of the language I'm hearing about Shough, including talking about how he's way above league average in several categories, makes it sound like Shough is having a rookie season on par with like a CJ Stroud who established himself as basically a Top 5-10 QB his rookie season.  Maybe that's on me though, I don't mean to attribute anything to you that I'm sure you don't agree with.
    • Since your being selective (and somewhat deceptive) with your comparisons, I'll throw this up so we can compare apples to apples. Both Young and Shough have played against the Rams. Young went: 15/20 (75%) for 191 yards, 3 TDs, 0 INTs with a 147.1 QB rating Shough went: 15/24 (62.5%) for 176 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT with a 81.2 QB rating   Both Young and Shough have played against the Buccs. Young went: 21/32 (65%) for 206 yards, 2 TDs, 0 INTs with a 102.5 QB rating Shough went: 13/20 (65%) for 176 yards, 0 TD, 1 INT with a 65.4 QB rating   Both Young and Shough have played against the Falcons. Young went: 31/45 (75%) for 448 yards, 3 TDs, 0 INTs with a 123.2 rating Shough went: 30/43 (69.7%) for 243 yards, 0TD, 1 INT with a 74 QB rating   Seriously, in what world is Shough a better QB.
    • Freddie? For this game? Seriously? I don’t get it. Hope we get the best version of Freddie tonight.
