Week 5 Rookie of the Week goes to...

posters gonna post.

ROTW is more like a fan thing with a sponsor tie-in... Really means very little.

Didn't Cam win rookie of the month? That outweighs rookie of the week. And I believe it is more official, as in, it is voted on by writers/peers, but I'm not sure about. I know the ROY award is voted on the same way as MVPs are, so he'll get the attention he deserves...

Oh I know ROW doesn't mean much because it's voted on by fans, my only point was there has to be some kind of jealousy/spite toward Cam by a not insignificant portion of fans out there toward him for Cam to be constantly outvoted on for these awards. I understand Carolina doesn't have as big a fan base as SF or whatever towns most of the ROWs have come from so far, but one would think the voters from places outside of the nominees would be a little more unbiased.

After not winning it so many times getting upset when he doesn't win it yet again is stupid.

I'm just saying it would seem there's got to be some reason the fans outside of the other nominees' teams are voting more for the less deserving nominees. Simply an observation, I'm not upset about it or anything...

    • Lol.  Now you make me defend DG. We had the best IOL in the league under DG and Oher looked solid until he got that bad concussion. DG drafted Moton and Daryl Williams as well. The OL fell apart under Hurney 2.0 and Fitterer. DG also drafted Star and Short. Sorry, but that was all in 5 drafts so let’s not make stuff up about not trying to improve hog mollies. Gettleman did a ton wrong and took the wrong guys, but he and Rivera had a deep and talented team and it got blown up really quickly. Also, I love Cam but he wasn’t the best QB in the league. He had the best year in 2015 but he wasn’t Brady. I think Dan has had a solid offseason, way better than last year but I’m not putting on rose colored glasses until we actually have a 10 win season. Again, Dave and Ron had 3 10+ wins seasons out of 5.
    • Yeah I wont often comment on a coddled generation and participation trophies but this sort of begs for it. Also how did an athlete achieve at that level without getting a thicker skin?  
    • Right, basically what I said. Dude is crowning Dan after a 5-12 season and 1 draft, which as of right now, wasn’t good. I wasn’t judging Morgan at all. People read what they want to read like that I loved Gettleman and think he was awesome. Nope. All I said is that it’s way too freaking early to act like Morgan is amazing. I used the Gettleman/Rivera record just like I mentioned that Rhule almost beat both #1 seeds in this first year. Morgan/Canales’ team would need to win 11 a year to get to a similar record as Gettleman/Rivera’s first 5. If you are going to given Morgan a pass for bad talent, we were 15-33 the 3 years prior to Gettleman/Rivera. Again, I think all of us want this team to win again but maybe I’m a little jaded in thinking that I enjoyed 2013-2017 a helluva a lot more than 2018-2024 and I’m not a fan of smoke getting blown up my ass like we have already back.
