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.

    • The difference is about how much player input is allowed and encouraged in the decision making process. Top down teams tend to dictate to players how everything is handled. Disagreements are handled by the coach and players are expected to do what they are told regardless of what they think or feel.  Players are perceived as commodities to be used until we find better. In player led teams player input is encouraged and valued. Players and especially leaders are expected to settle their own disagreements and be accountable to the team but mostly to each other. Players are family to be appreciated and supported in their growth. Is the reality of football the same in both? Yeah there are limited positions, football is a business and winning is the bottom line. Coaches get final say and run the program because that is their job. But in player led teams they feel valued, appreciated, part of a larger whole. Most people who have worked at multiple jobs know exactly what I am talking about. When players try to run the show and don't value  coach input that isn't a player led team, that is a circus which we surely are familiar with in our past.  
    • For our pics and trades tonight and tmrw.  Remember, Aho was a 2nd rounder and Slavin was a 4th rounder. 
    • Seems to be the consensus from the talking heads. I really wish we had double dipped at center in the 2nd round. Sion will never play in the league.
