Kyle Allen's numbers


lightsout

Recommended Posts

This stat is interesting:

Yards gained per completion: 11.3 (16th, right behind Cam at 11.4)

It seems Cam gets a very slight not here, right?

However, Cam completed (this year) 56%.  Kyle is completing 67%.

The bottom line, folks:  Is Cam a better QB?  Not when injured, yes when healthy. Is he better for this team, even when healthy?  Kyle gets the ball to all parties.  Cam locks in on Olsen and CMC.  Are we harder to defend with Allen than Cam?  Maybe.  The Bucs DC thinks so.

Don't get me wrong, Allen has been great for us. But people keep mentioning 0 interceptions, but he's actually fortunate to have none right now, there have been a couple where the defensive player flat out dropped it, and multiple where our receievers had to switch into full DB mode and prevent the interception. 

I understand that'll happen sometimes, but he is fortunate that none of them turned into an interception. 

Still he is playing good overall and doing what we need to win. 

But you gotta be delusional to not think a fully healthy Cam can't do everything Allen is doing and more.

Why do people talk about this as if not being behind on the scoreboard is a bad thing?

It kinda means you're, you know, winning the game.

I brought it up because the OP had Kyle Allen's 225 yards per game, as if that was a minor number. In context, if you are constantly winning, you don't throw the ball as much, so I believe if we were behind in a few more games, his Yards Per Game Average would be higher. The fact that we are ahead in the game, means we will run the ball and control the clock. Rivera ball 101.

Cam will never be fully healthy again....so does that mean Allen is the better QB right now ? 
I still maintain Cams issues are not just physical.

    • I think we have some revisionist around it here because of all the drama around Tepper's involvement. If you pull up any scouting report from the time you'll see the same take. WalterFootball's report sums up the media's thoughts on him well: "Young has everything the NFL is looking for in a quarterback except in terms of weight and height." He was the consensus top QB of his draft and the only real question mark they had about him was whether his body could hold up in the NFL. The infamous Steph Curry comparison the Panthers latched onto came from Albert Breer. The excuses I've heard for him are more anecdotal. Bryce Young's development is the only bullet point most NFL fans have on the Panthers right now. That and the coaching turnover. If you're not actually watching our games it's easy to believe this is just a dysfunctional organization that doesn't know how to unleash this talented Heisman winner.  I've seen media and fans alike run with that narrative way more than criticizing Young outright. Whenever we win there's flocks who use it as proof that the Panthers just need to be patient.  
    • So maybe 1-3 vs playoff teams, going by standings as of today. I guess that is an improvement.  We are just about improved enough to be in purgatory draft wise. It really isn’t so bad in the 1st unless you really want that top QB or maybe edge guy because there are usually plenty of good players at the top but it hurts you some as get deeper in the draft.
