Newton vs. Tebow


CarolinaCatBrigade

Recommended Posts

Alright, so I have an ignorant and very loud Broncos fan in my dorm. When we are fugged up on some type of substance we always talk crap about eachothers teams.

He honestly believes The Golden Calf of Bristol is better than Cam Newton, just because The Golden Calf of Bristol has more wins. Even though Cam Newton blows him away with skill set and talent, apparently The Golden Calf of Bristol is just hands down the better QB (if a QB is what you call him).

He says that The Golden Calf of Bristol is the most talked about QB on ESPN and other networks, not Newton. Even though I'm pretty sure that's because it's a bye week for Carolina. But does The Golden Calf of Bristol have his picture in the background on Fox NFL gameday news casts? Nope! Does Chuck Norris wear The Golden Calf of Bristol underwear? Nope!

So everyone, what is your perspective on this comparison? Honestly there isn't much of anything between the two other than what's popular among the fans on two losing teams. But for sh*ts and giggles let me hear what you have to say.

Cam Newton > Most NFL QB's > College QB's > The Golden Calf of Bristol

Point him to the record books where Cam is the best rookie QB in the NFL of all time in most categories and basically in general.

The Golden Calf of Bristol is in his second year and sat for a year. He should be lighting Cam the fug up.

Anyone who compares them is stupid and who the fug cares about comparing college. NFL is all that is needed, that's where things get hard.

I cannot stand this comparison or any comparison to Cam. He is setting records for being the best rookie QB all over the place, he cannot be compared to anyone but if he was it needs to be a rookie, but even still setting records means you don't compare to anyone.

The Golden Calf of Bristol currently has 2 wins.....Cam has 2. Let's review the difference in the wins.

1. Cam has played great

2. The Broncos found a way to win 2 games despite horrific QB play.

The Golden Calf of Bristol completes 26% of his passes when asked to throw past 10 yards. He is a running back he occassionally throws.

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
