Cam will be in the Hall. The lack of a SB victory on his resume doesn't help...

This will be intriguing to watch.

Pro Football Reference has devised a stat they call Hall of Fame Monitor (HOFm) and the QB rankings are interesting to read up on...

Only 2 QB's with a lower rating than Cam have ever been elected to the HOF -- Troy Aikman and Jim Kelly.

Aikman obviously won 3 Super Bowl titles and while he was win-less Kelly went to the Super Bowl 4-straight years. 

Statistics here:  https://www.pro-football-reference.com/hof/hofm_QB.htm?__hstc=213859787.dbb0c9cf9d34c060fb1c678053f7bc8d.1640243706660.1640243706660.1640243706660.1&__hssc=213859787.1.1640243706660&__hsfp=1853336022

Cam's also unique in how he plays, what his running has brought to his game and the NFL in general, and that he has carried the Carolina offense for a decade. Not sure the voters will recognize that, but it is a different type of case.

I don't know who he bribed.

Kelly was a good passer, though he was helped along by some superior receiving and rushing talents around him, not to mention a great O-line.
 

Cam should get a HoF nod simply for his stats in “games with a rushing and passing TD” as he blew past everyone else in that category, but sadly he won’t. And that will bother me forever.

I just don’t think enough voters appreciate Cam’s talents or records (especially the “games with a rushing and passing TD”) to get him in the Hall. It sucks, but that’s how I see it.

Those voters won't always be the one making the choices.  That is why I say it's a matter of when.

Laugh all you want pal, they are a big factor whether you like it or not...

Marv Levy, an incredible roster i.e. Andre Reed, Thurman Thomas, Bruce Smith and a weak AFC got Kelly to 4 superbowls. And I liked Kelly. Stop attributing everything to Kelly. Cam accomplished ALL he did with the exact opposite. His accompanying cast was ALWAYS ass cheeks. Yet how many records does Cam hold?You people are crazy if you think he won't get in eventually.

Look, I don't care about Kelly or the Bills, or Aikman, or the Cowboys...

...I'm simply pointing to the water over the dam (as per Pro Football Reference) for NFL QB's who ARE IN the NFL Hall of Fame.   

Only 2 QB's with a lower PFR-HOFm have ever been elected to The Hall and both had lesser "stats"...

...but between them they played in 7 Super Bowls.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Varying degrees all around but it starts at the top. That is where the buck stops. It has been 8 years of stupid, long before Morgan came back. Or Tillis was hired. Made it to the top of stupid mountain in 2023. Stayed in stupid limbo for a while, now we are prepping to scale the next mountain. In this case, I like those guys’ roster building better than what we have had so I am okay with them as our current pawns in the game of Bryce.

      Don't let me gas him up too much, but I hear this and that...... I seen a wide body man with a quick burst, that's able to shed blocks and if extends his long arms its over. He tore up the OL in the senior, you seen about 10 plays and the dog walking OLman. There's other plays of him doing the same, just have to deal with fetus talking over the plays. Plus there's this-  https://x.com/PFF_College/status/2018385471068332410?lang=en     I hope he's ready, cause Id like to see him starting and doing his thang with dbrown, nic, and Phillips.

      I mean there is relevance to that. But I think much of it has to do with the fact that he is clearly likeable. But does that translate to a coach taking his position to the next level like those that have had staying power for many years like Spoelstra? And not for nothing but does how much someone is liked even matter? Across leagues with the Panthers Ron Rivera and Marty Hurney were universally well liked by players. Dave Canales is very well liked. I say you are what your record says. And the record says you got your ass handed to you by a fellow expansion team in the Magic in a game that was over at halftime and that same team went toe to toe with our nemesis who has been handing us L's for over a year now. And if Bam doesn't get his leg swept by LaMelo do we even get past the Heat? Again. It just all boils down to personal standards. I think newer and younger fans will love this. I just want to actually win a real playoff game fam 🤷‍♂️
