Demonstrably false.  Laughably so in fact.

Over the last three years, here are their stats next to each other:

Cam - 361 / 583, 62% completion.  12 TD (2%), 16 INT (2.7%)

Minsh - 542 / 857, 63% completion.  41 TD (4.8%), 12 INT (1.4%)

More stats?  Sure.  Cam over the last three years is around 6 air yards per attempt.  TEDDY BRIDGEWATER is averaging 7.2 - Minshew the same.

Statistically, it's not even close.

When you go to league wide opinion, it's the same.  The Eagles traded a draft pick for Minshew while Cam Newton was sitting on his couch.

I'm not saying Minshew is the answer.  I'm not even really advocating we chase him.  But people who cannot see that Cam is beyond DONE aren't playing with a full deck.

Don't quote me and give me a paragraph of bullshit. Cam had 21 TD last year with nothing on offense in NE. Gardner Minshew on NE last year wouldn't have had 21 TD - your stats don't tell the real story

The guy that got booed all year long in Chicago? Panthers fans will boo Dalton off the field and also boo when Darnold takes the field lol. 

They booed Dalton because Nagy refused to play Fields.  We don't have that luxury here.  I would still not touch Dalton with a 10 foot pole.  Sadly, we are going to have to make Sam earn his money.  He's going to be the starter next year.

Cam, 30 TD last two seasons

Minshew, 20 TD

Yeah that's pretty much my point. Unless something magical happens whoever goes to the games is gonna boo until Rhule is gone. Or the stadium will be 60% opposing fans. If we had kept Teddy and taken Fields I think fans would have a little bit of patience but this "process" has been ridiculous from the get-go. Don't see Rhule ever living down his Slater evaluation either

Rhule's evaluation and explanation around OL decisions has been piss poor all season.  Brady should have been the LT starter all year, and then he should have just kept the Slater comments to himself.  Complete disaster.  Especially when successful OL evaluators around the league are saying arm length doesn't mean dick.

If anything I would go after Minshew!! He reminds me of Jake Delhomme!! I think he would bring energy to the team and play good enough to keep the offense in the game.. He has that moment to drop the ball in there!! Just think he would be a better gamble then of all these retread QBs 

Jake was… Jake, due to in large prime Steve Smith ripping the league.

Maybe we could get Bill Callahan or Doug Marrone for OL coach since there is a connection from both to Gruden 

Callahan is the Browns OL coach. It'd be a lateral move.

Marrone would be good.

Worth noting the Assistant OL Coach in Jacksonville was our own Tony Sparano, so there's that.

If Cam had nothing - what changed?  New England's leading receiver this year?  Jakobi Meyers.  Yep, there last year.  Leading rusher this year?  Damien Harris?  Yep, there last year.  QB this year?  Rookie.  I'll remind you, New England went from 27th in offense last year, with Cam, to 6th in offense this year.

Why was Cam on the couch?  It's really simple.  Because 32 teams decided they were better off with guys like Minshew, Bridgewater, TAYSOM FRAKKING HILL and Taylor Heinecke than signing Cam off the couch.

I love Cam.  What he did for our team.  I love the person he has become over the years.  He's grown as a man.  That's all you can ask of someone as a person.  But the bottom line is that the beatings took their toll and Cam is now a trick play.  He's not an NFL starter.

NE is a better team than they were last year. They decided to go with the rookie for the long term development. Who knows how Cam would have done in NE if he was the starter. 
 

Ron Rivera has his own reasons for not signing Cam and T. Heineke is a good QB in his own right. I would still absolutely go with Cam over TB, Taysom Hill, or Minshew if we gave him a full offseason and offensive line that wasn’t complete dogshit. 
 

And to be 💯 let’s not act like Cam still doesn’t deal with ignorant racism to this day. Even Rhule and Fitt went out of their way to say how hard Cam works as if it were a surprise to them. Rhule judged him the minute he walked in the door as HC.

I'm pretty sure Mac Jones did not have even one TD to a member of the 2020 Patriots

    • Plus he was in the era in which Safety, LBs, and CBs could de-cleat WRs/TEs on crossing routes. He was beyond tough too. Plus those numbers his 4.66 40 time etc....... GameDay with 15 LBs of pads/clothes/tape, he was the fastest guy on the field. In fact I never recall at any point Rice being ran down or "hawked" from behind by any player. He was a gamer and clutch, just like lex Lugar the total package. 
    • Not all talent can be measured with a ruler and stopwatch. His hands, body control, and skills were ELITE. 
    • He did have talent, but if you look at his combine/workout numbers...they are not eye popping like many of the combine freaks are. All the best have talent, smarts, and work ethic. What he was able to do in his 40s, he holds all the records after 40. He had two 1k seasons at 39 and 40, no other WR has 1k after 36. He came back from a ACL tear within 9 months after he turned 35 years old. You know this is the era where ACl was a career derail-er and it took most mortal men took a full 12 months and they were never the same. Only two other players have made catches at that age (40) and neither one was a wide receiver. LOL at Tom being one of them....   I also read or heard, he would have still played if not for ST. He was going to play for the broncos in 2006, I think he would have been 44???, he earned a spot as the #4-6 but the numbers game of having WRs play ST ended his career. He could still get open and play, just no sense in having the GOAT run head first into a wedge on KO duties.....
