That and the simple fact that both Cam and Fields have a higher career completion % than Staubach who he is claiming is more accurate… He is just pulling poo out of his ass like when he said Josh Allen isn’t a dual threat QB or Darnold is more physically talented than Richardson. It’s complete nonsense.

I mean pulling out Roger Staubach is bizarre.  His last season was 43 yrs ago.  😀
 

Johnny Unitas was good too

He was good enough to win but only because the running game was carrying the  offense. We obviously conservative with him again and limited his throws.

The first DJ Td was nice, the long DJ pass was nice, TMJ pass was nice. He threw 19 times. Russ threw like 35 times for nothing that looked nice

You are just being intellectually dishonest. 

Cam Newton is nowhere close to Staubach. 

Many considered him the best QB of his decade and he's in the Hall. 

It was also when QBs were actual men. 

You could hit them anywhere and they gave you 3 steps as a defender to hit them after they released the ball.

No strike zone. None of this can't hit them in the head. It was open season.

Staubach was 57% in his career. Cam and Fields are 59%. Those are facts that hurt your argument. Maybe Staubach could hit them from anywhere, but the truth is he only did 57% of the time. Go back to your Darnold trolling.

Sam played well today, and I liked what I saw especially against a good defense.  That said, he looked great the first 3 games of last year and then the wheels fell off.

If he were to somehow lead us to the playoffs, I still wouldn't offer him a big contract.   A modest deal would be the best.  If someone else wants to offer him big money, I'd take the compensation pick over a big money deal.  Too much inconsistency for a big contract.  

If he did play well, I would not draft a QB with our 1st pick.  Maybe our 2nd round pick. I would start the offseason with Darnold and Corral.

Lol and he tried hard with that double clutch staredown and fumble on the run. Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.

He did have a couple of nice throws, though. He managed to not fug it up for a dominant running and defensive performance.

All in all, as successful as we can hope for from him.

If he didn't double clutch that was probably going to be a pick 6.   He also missed a wide-open DJ that probably would have scored.

He had some mistakes today that he got away with because our running game was on display.

He's also off the bench during a holiday week, the Seattle game will be a better tell of where he's at because they'll put up points but at the same time their D isn't anything special. A good QB should put up good numbers on them

These we great QBs for their Era.  The rules favorited the defense and completion percentage would obviously be lower.  

It would be very interesting to see those two QBs play in this ERA.  Unitas would have had some great number.  Very accurate passer and a great student of the game.   One of the last QBs to call his own plays.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      He has rarely been aggressive enough to be considered a gunslinger type player. The guy he is describing is Pat Mahomes-esque and I doubt any of us see that in Bryce.  When the play is breaking down or he bails on the play, how often are we really seeing him laser it into a tight window? How about scramble long enough to get someone breaking free and then hitting them? I remember that far less, although I am not sitting down to look at all 2.5 years of data, than I am checkdowns, throw aways, off target passes, scrambles, etc.

      Some Tet appreciation

      Wow this is some crazy nonsense. First, he doesn't have problems picking up the ball on quick slants or screens, go back and watch the replays, you can clearly see him start to turn his head on those drops before the ball is in his hands, it's a concentration issue, not an issue of picking up the ball. Yes, it's 100% something he has to improve upon and it's still a knock on him, but you're making up a problem that isn't there, when the real problem that is there is a very correctable one and also one that is rather common for a player 6 games into his career and trying to do too much. After that, I genuinely don't understand what your point is in bringing up where he ranks in YPC, as if that's some indicator of his abilities.  Which, to begin with, he's not 31st, he's 26th (and that's before even factoring in the players above him with just a handful of catches, like Horn Jr with his 4 catches).  Then below him in that YPC ranks are guys like Chase, CeeDee, London, Tyreek, Waddle, Higgins, BTJ, Wilson etc, so I'm not sure what pointing out his ranking has anything to do with what kind of player he is or might become.  All of that before even looking how close he is to being much higher on the list because they're all so close together, he's 27 yards across 6 games shy from being in the Top 15. If you want to pick and choose stats, why not look at things like being 3rd in the NFL in catches of 20+ yards or 6th in the NFL in 1st down catches? And finally, no, just no.  He doesn't look far less pro ready than Egbuka, he's just in a significantly worse situation if you're just looking for a big statistical output.  Egbuka is playing with the current front runner for MVP, in a pass happy offense, where all their other pass catchers keep getting hurt, so of course he's going to be putting up big stats.  Swap those players and T-Mac might be leading the NFL in yards right now, not to mention would have just as many TD's as Egbuka does as well.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      How about if you don't like my choice of content, then don't click on the thread? We're discussing the NFL, not Pee-wee football. Until we start having "great" games on a continuous basis, I'm going to continue to talk all facets of the team. Moreover, I haven't seen X have a "great" game yet. Just like I supported patience last season, I have become critical this season. If it hurts your feelings, it just hurts your feelings. I've been on this board longer than most of you, and I've been a fan of the Panthers since before they stepped on the field, so don't tell me how to fan.
