Something Cam Newton said had Broncos LB Von Miller all fired up

1:47PM EST November 10. 2012 - ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Even through the months of hype leading up to the 2011 draft, Von Miller never let himself think about what it would be like to go up against Cam Newton in a game.

Even through the 2011 season, when Newton and Miller emerged as legitimate stars, more than backing up their status as the top two picks in the draft, Miller wouldn't picture himself chasing down Newton for a sack.

Not sure Cam should be doing his Superman celebration anymore.....our defense put him on blast!

Annnnnd we all know who the REAL #1 pick in the draft should have been. Lucky for us Bronco fans you guys made the mistake of taking Cam over Miller.

Thanks for your input, troll.

We'll revisit that topic in 10 or 12 years. For a long time it looked like the Chargers fleeced the Giants in that Eli Manning trade, several years and 2 Super Bowl rings later, the Giants are looking pretty swell.

QB driven league.....Von Miller wouldn't of helped Jimmy Clausen win games. Not a mistake, team needs are different.

One game, Newton has had Carolina in every game of his 25 game career except for 4. Today was one of those 4.

Your D put our make shift OL on blast....and our OC. Cam was just a sitting duck for most of that.

But your version sounds cooler I guess....

Why would you need 12 years to decide if Newton was better than Miller? Clearly Miller has been better so far.

LOL

You're not very bright, are you?

Stop making Broncos fans look bad. By and large, they're a great fanbase. I went to all but two of their home games last year via free tickets from work.

      Panthers Preseason

      Ideally Bryce and the other starters should get at least a full quarter and an argument could be made for 2 full quarters given how they've played early in the season the last few years.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By CRA · Posted

      A rookie that has never played a snap and a proven 1000K NFL WR are not going to be viewed the same in these type rankings.  And calling draft picks, lotto picks, isn't some new quip I just invented.  take the big 3 Hubbard, AT, insert whatever 3rd Panther you want vs Kamara, Hill, Olave.  Most football folks outside of Carolina are picking the Saints there IMO.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.
