Terry Bradshaw ranked Dalton ahead of Cam...

Bradshaw's silly.

Dalton averages a measly 6.8 YPA, which ranks 20th in the league. 17th in over 20, 14th in over 40 and his QB rating is 18th. Which ranks behind McNabb who was just benched for Ponder.

Cam's numbers are better in YPA, over 20, over 40, QB rating, yards and TD's. They also have comparable numbers in turnovers, yet the offense that Cam Newton runs is much more of a riskier offense and takes the most over 20 shots per game in the NFL.

I'd say that Bradshaw is silly, it takes a team to win games. Cam's number's smash and put Dalton's to shame.

They are, but Dalton has looked pretty damn good, and I don't recall anyone talking about the freakin' Bengals being a playoff team pre-season. He's winning, which is ultimately the measure.

So far this year, I think Dalton might be slightly better than Cam. Longer term, I'm very happy with Cam. No reason to get excited here.

Cam is having a great year and I wouldn't put any rookie ahead of him. We can all see his playmaking ability and will to win. The record may not show it but this kid is special. We are in a tough conference but in a few years the Panthers will be the team people are talking about. http://sosportz.blogspot.com

3000 yards, 60% comp, 21 TD, 13 INT is mediocre?

He was 18th in completion percentage, behind guys like Jason Campbell, Chad Henne, David Garrard and Joe Flacco

18th in passing yardage, again behind Campbell, Flacco, Garrard, etc.

Tied for 15th in TD passes

20th in yards per attempt behind the likes of Sanchez, Vince Young, Campbell, Garrard, Flacco

16th in passer rating behind more of the usual suspects

Then of course the playoff game where he went 18 of 36 for 146 yards and a 58.3 rating.

Which would all be fine if we were talking about a guy who was a rookie, but it's Carson Palmer who was being paid like a top 5 QB.

You know how some people are. Wins are the only thing that matters when judging rookie qbs.

But it can't be it is a team game, the way to judge any player is by how good they play. That would be like saying Trent Dilfer went 11-1 with the Ravens in 2000 when they won the Superbowl so he was the best QB in the league. We all know thats BS he had 1500 yards and 12 TD's and 11 ints. Dalton has a better special team and a better defense plus an easy schedule so far, he is not even the best rookie on that team, Green is.

      Houston Texans... You Suck!!!

      I mean I think its a bit disingenuous to call basically anyone here a casual fan. I don't think the casual fan creates a profile then logs into it, in the offseason, to comments on mundane offseason topics.. I dont think anyone on here would be considered a casual fan. That said, I get your point. My POV is from the player. They sign this contract, move their family because of these contracts. When Clowney came him, we basically had a coming home party for him.  So yeah, I get why we did it and I know that ultimately the owner doesnt 'save' money, but I can feel for the human side of the player, which is why I want them to get all they can while they can.

      My guess is the NBA will either send Flagg back “home” to the Northeast in Brooklyn or Washington, or San Antonio so that they can keep building around Wemby. If I was a betting man I would take the odds on the Spurs. This definitely feels like a #1 pick that they will rig.

      Some...concerning UNC / Belichick news

      In fairness, she is ensuring she is talked about.  People really aren’t going out there way to bring her up.  It’s some weird poo.  She would end up getting talked about given her actions if she was 40. Bill realizing some of these high end “companions” got a game of their own.  That’s what I don’t think Bill saw coming.
