Cam currently has 3,722 passing yards, 609 Rushing yards, 17 Passing TDs and 13 Rushing TDs.

Has another QB ever put up #'s like this, much less in a rookie season?

I looked at Vick's #s and his best (combined) yardage year was last season with 3,018 passing and 676 Rushing, 21 passing TD's and 9 Rushing TDs.

Cam is on pace to break 4,000 passing yards and 700 rushing yards, and he really doesn't even run the ball on planned rushes very much.

I'm mainly talking to myself just because I am so impressed with him.

I would love to see Cameron finish the year with 20 passing TDs and no more INTs. He would have better #'s than Jake our '03 Super Bowl year. Cameron also trails The Golden Calf of Bristol by a yard for most rushing yards by a QB. Goin into the last 2 games of the season its gonna come down to those two.

Where would 4700 yards fall on the NFL total offense list all-time, I wonder?

I think Brees has the record with total offense.

2008 Drew Brees (29) 4,976

But, he and Brady are about to break that again with their records this season.

But, it is without doubt the rookie record.

Yeah, and they use The Golden Calf of Bristol like a RB... we play Cam as a true QB.

No real comparison there.

Just think this is his rookie year. The only problem with scrambling Qbs is that they seem to get injured a lot. Cam knows when to slide to avoid the tackle but its only a matter of time before he gets a good hit on him that will take him out of the game. I just hope Jimmy Clausen isn't our back-up qb if he does go down.

One positive stat I keep seeing in games about Cams rushing ability is that he leads the NFL in 3rd down rushes for a 1st down. This proves that he is a clutch runner.

One problem with him running the ball so much is that it takes away carries from our great Rbs who already split carries which is why none of our backs have had a 100 yard game nor a 1,000 yard season.

Thanks.

So if that page is accurate then IF Cam (for arguments sake) gets 4700 yds of total offense exactly, he will (yardage-wise at least) have had the 7th most successful season as a QB in NFL history.

Check me here... is that correct?

Well, it would actually end up being 10th. Because the list would now include the seasons by Brees, Brady, and Rodgers.

But still impressive nonetheless.

Also, this number of Total Offense is calculated by,

Passing Yards+Rushing Yards - yards lost by sacks = Total Offense.

Currently, according to this site, Cam has 4100 yards of total offense this season, which is 5th in the league behind, Brees, Brady, Rodgers, and Manning.

Still getting hard to see him getting 4700, 4600 is more likely.

      This is why they'll lose. The draft pick value is substantial vs. minimal cap impact.

      You keep mentioning the impact on the salary cap, but that's literally not the point with all these 2nd Rounders, it's all about precedent and it being a slippery slope that would lead to more fully guaranteed contracts for veterans. That's what the teams are making sure this doesn't get to, because yes, you're right, the guarantees for a 2nd rounder won't have significant cap implications if the player doesn't work out.  But you give that fully guaranteed 3-4 year contract to a FA who then shits the bed in year 1 and never regains the form that got them the contract, then yes, it's going to screw up your cap management and won't be a rounding error. And you can say it's a big leap to go from guaranteeing a 2nd round pick's contract to a big FA signing, but it's really not.  Once teams start giving them out, it's only going to keep growing and be insisted upon by agents in other situations and once the ball starts rolling down the hill, it's going to be impossible to stop it's momentum. Also, the only reason a 2nd rounder's contract would be a rounding error, is explicitly because contracts aren't guaranteed and teams can finagle the cap hits with various tactics.  Once contracts become more and more guaranteed, that won't be as easy to do, if even possible at all, and those individual rounding errors become serious problems in totality.
