I completely disagree. People are saying The Golden Calf of Bristol is better than Cam. I don't care how apathetic or even favored you are towards The Golden Calf of Bristol, but I for one can't let people get away with that. It's ridiculous and it annoys me that people would take Two Completions A Game over Supercam.

Their loss, who cares.

Cam hasn't done poo in the 4th quarter BTW, that's a legit concern going forward.

And after watching Fox call run up the middles all game long like he did vs NYJ, don't give me this its all Chuds fault bull poo.

Didn't Denver have a horrible Defense last year?

Fox is looking pretty good right now.

yep. fox is doing a FANTASTIC job. but this puts them in a tough position- The Golden Calf of Bristol is never going to be an NFL level passer and I can't see sustained high level success with him under center. but now that denver fans have had a taste of wins with him, it will be harder than ever for them to replace him.

Broncos were 32nd in points allowed last year, this year they're 29th in points allowed. So.....

yeah, 9 for 20 108 yards is not better than Cam. The better argument is the wins not his passing.

Overreact much Bronco fans? I know it's been 13 years since you have had a QB but you really need to calm the *** down.

He's the worst passer maybe ever but his style is like they did in the last 5 mins of the game.

He has to go empty set 4 wide and just play spread or spread option.

The bottom line is that he does have something whatever that "it" is he has it, so you tailor your offense to suit his strengths.

their defensive personnel are awful. i'm talking carolina panthers bad. they've had some miserable performances but they've been playing solid more often than not in recent weeks. they aren't pretty but they've been grinding out some wins- more than we can say.

See what the Broncos' defense did last night? They, not only slowed down the Jets offense, they helped up some numbers on the board for their team so the QB wouldn't have to be in hole. They understand that The Golden Calf of Bristol has som serious weaknesses but they believe in him and the team. They didn't give away the game then expect their QB and the offensive team to continually come out and score with every drive like the Panthers seem to enjoy doing with Cam.

I hope the Panthers were paying attention.

No, The Golden Calf of Bristol isn't better than Cam as a QB but The Golden Calf of Bristol as a team is better than Cam Newton the team. Football is a team sport. What the Broncos are showing is that ur QB is part of a team. He isn't the entire team. U still have to find a way to win as a team no matter what kind of day ur QB is having.

And once u believe u can win, u must go out and do whatever it teakes to WIN.

The Golden Calf of Bristol is a winner. Stats are meaningless and Kyle Orton is a guy who can get you 300 yd games if that's what you're after. The Golden Calf of Bristol is a guy who can lead game-winning drives and inspire his teammates to go that extra mile when it's late in the game and everyone's sore.

Similarly with the Dolphins they were 0-4 with Henne who is much more consistent than Moore and more accurate, yet Moore is 2-3 and celebrates every first down with a running fist pump jump. Little things make a big difference in sports.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!

      Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.

      Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
