Another shet post

My friend dragging Cam Newton into the debate to soften the blow of Bryce Young having a bottom 3 passer rating isn’t the flex you think it is. Cam Newton did have talent like 89 and Olsen but he also elevated those around him and even Greg Olsen himself would tell you if it weren't for Newton his career would not have had the trajectory that it did. Hey maybe Bryce Young could do these things in time we just don't know. But I can tell you no amount of grasping at straws comparison wise is going to make Bryce physically able to make the elite throws even other rookies in his draft class are making. I'd love to see it. Hopefully we will. In the meantime let's take baby steps and stop trying to draw parallels to the only MVP in franchise history when the best thing we can say about Bryce Young is he can make some nice plays when the game is already out of reach.

Is this any better than Bryce’s situation?

That's Cam Newton's second season. The rookies are the ones with 'Rook' in the Yrs column. His rookie roster is below.

Also, yes. Cam was in a better situation. He had a bonafide #1 receiver, a great pair of Running Backs in Deangelo Williams and Jonathon Stewart, an OL that could block, and a creative OC in Chud who became a Head Coach the following year. AND Greg Olsen + Jeremy Shockey at Tight End.

No one can tell me Cam Newton wasn’t set up for success with that roster.  Stop being dumb folks.  Not one player on this team outside of Burns starts for that team.  

JJ Jansen.. boom..

your whole argument is null & void for being wrong on 1 certain point, a seemingly small overlook on your part decimated e’rything you’re trying to do here…

 

Seriously, Cam had much more talent to work with on both sides of the ball & to be fair, seemingly coaching too…

    • I mean you literally are attempting to justify our -60 differential as unimportant in your first post in this thread. Well, having a negative point differential(to the tune of -3.8/ppg) through 11 games is a very strong indicator of being a bad team. If anything, we have largely been overachieving stastically.  The on field results also bear that out. So if we end up, and I think this is likely, as a 7-8 win team, with an even more substantially negative point differential at the end of this season how would this statistic not matter? Point differential is the most basic statistic in existence that one can look at to largely guage the results. You do need to score more than your opponent to win.
    • Yeah, it is wild that we keep clawing back and thriving with all these different lineup combos and players coming and going. Say what you want about how some things have gone over the past few years but our roster construction is exceptional. We really have loaded up on guys in free agency and through the draft that really fit Rod's system. It's gonna come down to the usual things, I think. Can we elevate our play in the playoffs? That's the big thing we have lacked. Eventually we just hit an opponent that can dig deeper and scrap harder than us.  It's funny because we always have these teams we cannot seem to get past in the playoffs(Bruins, Tampa, NYR, Florida) that we eventually outlast and outbuild. I guess possiblu that will be the way we win a Cup in the end. Just outlast and outbuild them all.
    • I wouldn take Nystrom allll day over Reilly. He is a gem. 7th rounder that bought in and is playing great.  The injury’s on D actually got him the playing time he needs. He will be a cane for a long time.
