It was a comparison of the last 2 ROY QB's in there first two week. You douche. I dont know why people have to be tough guys on the forums.

:coolgleamA:

How is that being a tough guy? I just said that those guys didn't win the award based on the first two games. If you felt like that was an attack, that's your problem not mine.

Don't you think it's fairly obvious to the rest of us that they didn't win the ROY in the first two weeks?

Thanks for the OP, I think it's fun to compare our players to one's that preceed them.

Andy Dalton has a win and no INTS

And who did he play against?

The Browns and Broncos. He also has less total passing yards (413) than either of Cam's games. And in the game he did win, Benson ran 25 times for 121 yards. But I am sure that had nothing to do with it because that is how great dalton is right? He threw for 10/15 for 81 yards and a TD. Cam Newton looked that good in the first quarter against the superbowl champs with no run game.

Please, come up with a better argument than that. Sheesh.

/end rant.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
