Luck breaks Newton's record

Recommended Posts

By 1 yard. The rookie single game passing record (yards) was given to Andrew Luck this past Sunday against the Dolphins.

Luck: 433

Newton: 432 and 422 (2nd and 4th)

Just thought I'd throw it out there. Can't wait for the Newton vs. Luck matchup, hope we show the doubters in this organization that Newton was the right choice regardless of Luck skipping out for a season and returning to school.

how many weeks did it take him to do it and how many 400+ yard games has he had?

at any rate, i don't really care and i don't think cam does either. i knew he was going to be good. his success doesn't detract from the fact that newton is still incredibly impressive, had one of the greatest rookie seasons of all time and the path that this team is on with him.

at this point...luck is just another QB out of 32(ish) starters in the league. he's not in our division. not in our conference. he's not our concern.

Rookie records don't really mean squat. The kind of quarterback you develop into over your career is what's important.

Luck deserves loads of credit for how he's playing. These rationalizations are silly.

People need to get over that Luck didn't come out last year and stop trying to find some way to invalidate everything he does like a bunch of jealous schoolgirls.

Newton has areas he needs to work on, but I'm still happy with him. He should be judged on his own merits, not how he compares to Andrew Luck

Let it go already.

    • Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.  
    • I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
    • I hate Marchand, but if he became a free agent.....
