Yet another Cam vs Allen thread - a statistical comparison


Obeg

Recommended Posts

I know - another of these threads - but this one is a little different.  I got into an argument with a friend while I was at the game yesterday through text.  I could not back up my claims while in the stands - but this morning I could.  I ran the numbers and I was actually surprised to see that a healthy 2018 Cam leads Allen in every single statistical category.  Really - at this point, Allen only has two advantages:  Cost (significant and a valid argument), and less controversial clothing choices.

Allen is a fine QB, seems to be a nice diamond in the rough, but to argue that he is better than a healthy Cam on the field is just silly.  (currently - Allen is still young)

Exhibit A: The challenge

problem is he wasn't healthy and was out there playing.   and you're comparing a vet and a guy in his 7th game.   and why you thought anyone wanted this thread after 2000 of them.....

Why?  Because I was called out by my friend to do the comparison.  The results surprised me.  Surprised me in two ways.  1) That Cam lead in every category.  2) That Allen's stats are closer in most to Cam and others in the league than I thought.  I thought someone else here might be interested in the results without having to do the work. If that's not you, you didn't have to click.

    • Picks: Nos. 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 I'm extremely excited for the Panthers' 2026 draft. How could you not be? After two straight offseasons of aggressive defensive spending, coordinator Ejiro Evero's unit looks ready to make the leap. Jaelan Phillips and Devin Lloydfill out two of the biggest gaps on the roster, though the Panthers should not be discounted from drafting a top edge rusher early. Phillips is a major injury risk and not a sack artist, so he doesn't fully solve the Panthers' 5.3% sack rate from last season (27th in the league). The Panthers might be the Akheem Mesidor(Miami) team, as they need his production immediately. The Panthers are also often tagged as the Kenyon Sadiq team, which is very possible. No one among Tommy Tremble, Ja'Tavion Sanders and Mitchell Evans has played his way into an unquestioned starting role. But the Panthers do have three tight ends on the roster, two of whom are on rookie contracts. Sadiq would fit nicely in Dave Canales' offense, which has a dynamic screen game and schemes up targets well. But I'd like to see an accompanying move to make room at the position for Sadiq's snaps to love the pick. There's much more room at wide receiver, where a second three-level option to run besides Offensive Rookie of the Year Tetairoa McMillan could really bust open this offense. I could see an early pick spent in the secondary, which might come as a surprise to some. Slot corner Chau Smith-Wade has been fine but could be improved upon if an elite nickel option is available at No. 51 (think D'Angelo Ponds from Indiana or Keionte Scottfrom Miami). Depth behind the outside corners is also quite thin, and Mike Jackson (29 years old) is in a contract year, so a player with inside-out versatility would have even more value. Clemson's Avieon Terrell, anyone? The Panthers can also buttress the slot by drafting a safety with good man coverage traits to play opposite Tre'von Moehrig, as neither Lathan Ransom nor Nick Scott has emphatically secured that role. Treydan Stukes(Arizona) is another option who would make a lot of sense at No. 51. Bottom line: Wide receiver, pass rusher and defensive back are the big needs. Attack them aggressively -- this is the end of Bryce Young's rookie contract, so it's time to push
