NFLN... positive comments about Cam (vid)

It's funny how these talking heads intentionally make it their agenda to dismiss what Cam did in Blinn as not worthy of counting so they can make their argument of him being a one win, one season QB. But ironically when Aaron Rogers won the SB, they couldn't stop talking about his time in a junior college and how it help to mold the QB he is today.

I have a problem with selective journalism.

you're way overreacting... these guys are heaping praise on him and you get pissed that one guy said "I'm surprised how good he looks given his one year in college!" The analyst may not even know he went to Juco because he may not have done a ton of research on him, just watched him some last year and this preseason, who knows. He certainly wasn't bashing him for it.

It's not selective journalism, it's that you can't compare the two in the same way.

I don't think anyone gave a poo about what Rodgers did in Juco when he was a year or two or even three into the league, and honestly I doubt anyone much cares now. Once you win the Superbowl and become Superbowl MVP, everyone decides that every moment of your life was leading up to that one point, so they have to talk about it. For that matter I don't even remember it being a huge deal in the Superbowl, but I'll take your word for it that the entire media went crazy about it.

Guarantee you if Cam wins it all, people will be all "yeah that incident at Florida allowed him to redeem himself at Blinn and it really got his head on straight so he could become the great player he is!"

I'm surprised at how much praise they are giving him given that many of the analysts are still slamming him on most things. I have to agree with most of what was said.

Seems clear that Newton is a leader and the guys respond to him in a way no quartback has since Jake on this team, and thats a good sign

I mean it's nice to see the good side of it from the national media too - but neither really means a damn until he has some regular season action under his belt. To me (and off of the cameras probably for everyone in the media too) this weeks game means more than all of his preseason work combined.

Everything I read / see until then I think of as just filler.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
