Could Cam make the Pro Bowl this year...

I think u keep mistaking polarizing Cam by mentioning him every second of the day to really liking him and people voting for him.

In case u haven't noticed, Cam is the most despised QB simply because he took a school that wasn't a beloved school to their NC championship this year. There are those who will intentionally vote against Cam simply because of that. Factor in those who don't like the fact that he's talented and those are sick of the media mentioning his name 100 times a day and we won't even have to bring in those who dislike him simply because they don't feel "his kind derserve to be elite QBs" and that will be enough reason for him not to make it.

Ontop of that, Cam wasn't/isn't an "elite media" favorite QB. I can bet dollars to donuts that even if Cam has a season three times better than any of the "preferred" QBs like Sam Bradford, Blaine, or even Andy, and there is any chance to put them ahead of Cam in the votes, those in the elite media will it. Don't kid urself. It's has become painfully obvious that bar for Cam has been set ridiculously high in comparison to the other rookie QBs and even some vets.

Dude, Cam is an "elite media" favorite QB.

Possible? Sure and probably slightly more likely if he continues to perform like he has for the first two weeks than the other rookie QBs. Likely? It's far too early in the season to know whether there's a snowball's chance in hell.

For now I'll settle for can he avoid a serious rookie slump later in the season and can the team as a whole get better around him so he doesn't HAVE to throw for 400 every game to remain competitive.

Cam certainly can be in the Pro Bowl this year if he keeps this up. The "wins factor in" argument is valid because it's winning teams that get media exposure. That's why so many Falcons were in last year, not because the Falcons have such a huge fanbase. Cam is getting tons of exposure even with losing. At the current rate, the only NFC QBs that would probably get in over him is Rogers and Brees. And there are 3 QBs spots for the Pro Bowl.

Needless to say, this is dependent on him continuing his current level of performance.

If he puts up 400 yards passing with at least one passing TD and one rushing TD the rest of the way, it's almost certain.

Sure as hell isn't my main concern though, and hopefully not Cam's.

if he put up 400 yards passing each week, that would put him at over 6400 yards.

yep, almost certain

    • And I won't even get into our forward lines... We have three legit forwards in aho, Svech, and Jarvis and a bunch of grinders. There is a reason why we have a hard time putting the puck in the net - nobody on this team knows how to shoot
    • I was more inclined to say fire rod last year than this year. I still think we are lacking significant talent on this team. Without chatty, our defense has old man burns who is washed, ghostbear who is a one-way player, orlov who makes numerous awful turnovers each game, a solid walker, and slavin. I think we are all definitely mad that nikishin didn't play, but we weren't winning this game with them anyway. The entire team came out flat, which is inexcusable at home down a game. If rod couldn't fire them up, I don't think any coach in the NHL does.  Florida is the worst possible matchup for us because they play very similar to us but are better at doing it. It sucks we're going to get swept, but I honestly thought this team was a fringe at best playoff team once we traded away mikko
