Fug it, I hate it when people draw things out when I'm not the one doing the drawing out, so I'll just answer it.

Here's how some great quarterbacks from the past decade did through Week 3 of their rookie preseason plus our very own Cam Newton:

A: 21 of 52 for 275 yards, 0 TDs, 0 INTs, 1 rushing TD (Cam Newton)

B: 11 of 20 for 121 yards, 0 TDs, 1 INTs (Michael Vick)

C: 27 of 49 for 270 yards, 2 TDs, 0 INTs (Sam Bradford)

D: 26 of 46 for 255 yards, 0 TDs, 0 INTs, 1 rushing TD (Josh Freeman)

E: 25 of 46 for 308 yards, 1 TD, 3 INTs (Matthew Stafford)

F: 19 of 32 for 280 yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT (Mark Sanchez)

G: 5 of 14 for 79 yards, 0 TDs, 2 INTs (Philip Rivers)

H: 32 of 52 for 277 yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT (Matt Ryan)

I: 28 of 55 for 226 yards, 1 TD, 0 INT (Joe Flacco)

J: 11 of 24 for 80 yards, 0 TDs, 2 INTs (Aaron Rodgers)

K: 20 of 42 for 228 yards, 0 TDs, 2 INTs (Eli Manning)

Thoughts?

Good post. It really reinforces that we have to be patient, as some of the answers really surprised me.

My bottom 2 were Philip Rivers and Aaron Rodgers, two guys that are obviously great QB's.

I penalized heavily for turnovers and that is not always fair...case in point, if your receiver tips a ball they should have caught and it gets picked.

Without actually watching the games in question and seeing what happened in them, or hell, knowing ANY of the context of this stuff, it's impossible to say anything about these numbers.

This does well to show that you shouldn't really give a poo about the stats a player collects in the preseason, but it does matter how a player plays in the preseason, something stats don't always reflect.

1.Cam Newton,Michael Vick,Sam Bradford,Josh Freeman,Matthew Stafford,Mark Sanchez, and Eli Manning dont belong on an list of Great quarterbacks at this time. Some of them may end up on one at some point in time.

2 Matt Ryan, Joe Flacco, Phillip Rivers, and Aaron Rodgers have at least earned the right for greatness to be discussed.

3 3 preseason games worth of stats is nowhere near enough to make any kind of sane judgement about how a qb is going to do.

4 Cam Newton based on his performance to date is not ready to start. That does not mean I dont't think he will be a good qb.

    • I'm honestly looking beyond DC at this point. He's too green and is making too many simple mistakes. I think he's gone after next year. I think the intention in LV was to use Mayer and Bowers similar to Gronk/Hernandez in NE. That's never really struck me as Carroll's MO though after watching him for years out here in Seattle.  He's talented enough and I think he just got lost behind the phenom that is Bowers because he couldn't develop in Carroll's system. I'm surprised Bowers is used as much as he is, though they really don't have anyone else. TE's don't really exist as focus receivers in Carroll's offense. I live in the PNW so I've been subjected to a lot of Seahawks football.  Coaches other utilize their TEs. We should too. Tremble is OK, but he's always been a project as a receiver. Again, all this is of we could get him at the right price. I wouldn't pay a lot because we need to spend on defense. 
    • David. Hey, money talks.....it has been acknowledged that Tepper isn't shy on spending. He's had the NFL equivalents of used car salesman after used car salesman line up to grift him of a big chunk. Canales is one of them.  Until that changes, it's gonna be tough to build anything to last.
    • Well it's who they tied themselves to for at least another year but i agree. They will be lucky to find a useful contributor but until I see the DC situation change I am presuming it's SSDD. Well it sounds like maybe in 2027.
