I’m not sure if you’ve been watching but the team has been putrid, there’s not a qb in the nfl that would have had a winning record with what we’ve collectively put on the field the last 5 weeks. 

half these post there’s zero context, I mean the guy played a game without a fg unit, in which if we had said fg unit we might have actually won 
 

 

These mfs and thier false narratives are being exposed more than females in a "girls gone wild" video. Not that I've watched one or anything.

Peppers statiscally might be the GOAT by a fair margin as is....if you look at the position from a well rounded aspect.   Because he is top 5 in basically everything.   The others aren't. 

I can see your point. It's valid.

But on the other hand since Deacon Jones entered the league putting QBs on the ground has been the main (not only) measuring stick even if it wasn't an official stat.

It’s so stupid because Jake himself would admit that Cam was a far better QB than him. But some guys like Catsfan see a lot of their self in the plucky aw shucks underdog without as much natural talent and can’t identify with the confident strong guy who goes against their stereotypes of what a QB “should be”. You can tell where they are going as soon as they start throwing out win/loss records as an individual stat but somehow discounting being MVP of the entire league.

Almost guaranteed this guy would have been more comfortable with Derek Anderson than Cam in his prime. You will continue to see this when potential QBs are discussed this off season, they don’t want any QB who isn’t a pocket statue because they’re “less accurate” and “can’t read a defense” and will immediately compare every QB that fits that mold to Brady even though he is the exception rather than the rule in this day and age.

Preach.

 

Also Jake has repeatedly said Cam is the best QB to ever suit up for Carolina. He literally said it again on the radio broadcast Sunday.

Well he was. Jake was a much better passer. Doesn't he still hold a Superbowl record?

But there is only 1 person on the planet who thinks current Cam is better than prime Jake.

Jake and Cam were just different QBs. That SB comeback by Jake was a thing of beauty to behold though and if it hadn't been for the shank kickoff that Lombardi could very well have ended up in Charlotte.

As mentioned a million times, passing the ball isn't the only thing a QB does. But even then, just because Jake is less athletic than Cam, it doesn't automatically make him a better passer. If he's "much better" than why is Cam's career completion percentage, passing TD to INT ratio better, and yards per attempt identical? And that is not even factoring what Cam brings to the table with his ability to scramble.

Really? Cam’s performance was affected by not having a FG unit? Please tell me how. I love Cam and I was excited to see him come back, but if you can’t see that he’s not our prior Cam then you are holding on to hope, not actually watching him. It sucks to say this because he’s not that old QB wise. As a pocket passer, unless he has some miraculous nanobot surgery that turns his shoulder back a decade, he’s done. He’s still crazy good as a runner, that’s it, which is why I said Taysom Hill pre-2021. 

"but if you can’t see that he’s not our prior Cam..."

I keep seeing you all say this. Who is making this argument? Where are they saying he is?

I see that nonsense so much on fan comments across the interwebs comparing Cam and Brady. A couple of weeks ago when Saints pitched shut out and Brady was cussing out coaches, refs, other players someone posted a gif of Cam falling after a missed field goal. The caption was "I'd still take over this guy any day". Another was when we resigned Cam, some old chick put "he's no Tom Brady". 

What these morons don't care to analyze are the same reasons we hate guys like Brady. The entire league has changed the day Brady's knee was hurt on a routine tackle. The league mandated we are going to protect our franchise QBs and subsequently till this day you can't touch Brady. We had to watch Cam get absolutely ear holed over and over and over to open 2016 season against the team we lost to in the championship. And Brady has never had to play that opener in his career and he's been to what nine more SuPEr Bowls than Cam. 

Brady is the outlier because no one will have that weak ass garbage excuse of a division, a coach that blatantly cheats, a league that's on board, and the owner/QB/Coach connection for twenty years in the history of the National Football League ever again. 

When people don't acknowledge these things when talking about Brady, I know who I'm dealing with immediately.

No question. If we had a coach that could put that lightning in a bottle 2022 Cam could be superior to 2015 Cam and we could dominate with THAT guy.

Granted, we're not talking about somebody with a firm grip on reality, but yeah, he said it.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
