No Team has won the Super Bowl in 20+ years with their QB taking up more than 12.6% of the salary cap

But you do? Trolling about wanting the last franchise QB out of the city for the better part of a decade doesn't count 😂

How many times do I have to say it ... I disliked Cam the persona. I didn't dislike Cam the QB. I'm an Auburn fan for crying out loud. I'd have NO issue with Watson coming here if the deal is right. But the deal will not be right and it will harm the team ... the only thing I care about. I don't focus on one player like others here do.

Lol. You know 12.6% is the way they excluded Brady since he always took team friendly deals to help win SBs. It worked because he was a stud too. It also probably excludes guys like Mahomes who won on their rookie deal. Burrow got there on his rookie deal.

I’m not going to disagree but some of these stats are silly. Peyton is on there higher than 14% but then his cap number was smaller in 2015.

Here’s why this article is kind of dumb. Brady’s won the most and he was notorious for being team friendly. Ryan didn’t win but was over 15%. Was his extra 2.5% the reason or the stupidity of their play calling?

Also, best of all how about Stafford? Well, he was only 11% because the Rams got him after the Lions paid the $50M signing bonus so the Rams cap hit was just salary and no bonus. Goff was 13.6% of the cap so the Rams won a SB with a QB making a higher % than their limit and he wasn’t even on the team. The Rams won last year with QBs taking up almost 25% of their cap. Does that fit into the article’s conclusion?

Tell me you didn't read the link without telling me you didn't read the link. ^^

Fuggin liar.

And, if you (still) want to (falsely) claim that label, fug off you goddam pretender.

Or maybe you're older than me (and I'm pretty damn old)?  One of those "old school" SEC fans who preferred keeping the SEC looking "pristine" like the 40's, 50's and 60's, before players that looked like Cam were allowed to play?  If you truly claim yourself to be an Auburn "fan", I'm betting that's EXACTLY what you are.

I have receipts from when this all started a Year ago that I didn't like the price Houston was asking for him.

This is without the rapey stuff tacked on. 

Seriously question but didn’t you wanna trade 3 1sts for Zach Wilson last draft? I remember you wanted him.

The reason that guys like Brooklyn don't like Cam is because they don't like Cam's sense of fashion.

Which truly makes me think that maybe Brooklyn is really REALLY afraid of being "out'ed" by Cam's chosen (and very freaky) wardrobe.  Cam is a litmus paper for males who are truly unsure about their masculinity.  Me?  God bless, Cam... his fashion choices are crazy, but they make me laugh.  I sure as hell don't feel threatened by them.  God bless him... dress the way you feel, Brother Cam.

But Brooklyn?  His testicles shrink into his small intestines every time he sees Cam dress crazy.  And the question you have to ask yourself is... why?

I think I know why.

Love Cam on and off the field. He did so much for the Charlotte community and had zero off field issues. I could care less how the man dresses. He uses fashion to express himself, which is fine by me.

      Does anyone actually think Bryce will actually be good?

      By frankw · Posted

      I feel like anyone within the Panthers fanbase no matter where they land on Bryce should agree on this. He's a good kid. He's intelligent. But ultimately is he going to ever be the guy to command a locker room? Obviously none of us can say. But I just don't get any alpha vibes from him whatsoever. Is that a dealbreaker? Not necessarily. Here's the thing though. We had the talk of his generational years ahead of his age leadership trait clubbed over our heads for weeks nonstop before the draft. But after seeing someone like Sam Darnold navigate life as a starting QB I think anyone here should be able to acknowledge homerism there are some similarities to Darnold in terms of personality. That is not what we were sold. All of this takes me back to before the draft. I just can't shake the sense that Stroud just rubbed Tepper or someone the wrong way. Was he too confident? Not subservient enough? Did they feel Bryce was more marketable and media savvy? My gut says these things weighed more into the pick than they should have. If not. Stroud more than likely would have been the selection. What's done is done though. I'm just like you though. I want to see some fire from Bryce at some point this season. But I'm expecting to be disappointed considering his first order of business following one of the worst rookie seasons ever was to detach completely and do nothing. As always. Hoping for the best. I feel like I have to put a disclaimer at the end of this post for the Bryce superfans. I want to see him do well. I don't want this to end in the worst case scenario. There now we can be friends!

      Every Big-Time Throw from Bryce Young and CJ Stroud in 2023

      By Basbear · Posted

      I felt the Cam vibes on the huddle with Bryce, in fact its almost there. Threads that have no mention of young, turn in them.  Only deal is Cam had tons more supporters/nut huggers.  I honestly hated talking Cam with 90% of the huddle, in many eyes he was perfectly accurate with all his throws and if he had a legit great game the true haters were missing in action.   Cam board is now a Bryce board...
