Cam's Quarter back rating

Recommended Posts

Despite all this "sophomore slump" blah blah, cam actually has a higher quarterback rating as of now than he did last year (not qbr) 85.8 > 84.5.

He is also averaging more yards per completion. I think if we can get some more talent on the OL and a WR we will be alright.

Also new coaches.

I just think it's funny how everyone has been bashing cam for having a down year. I know quarterback rating doesn't say it all, and he has struggled mightily in some games/situations, but overall he is having a very similar year as last year.

At this point last year, his td-int ratio was 13/14 (14-10 now) and EVERYONE was slobbering over him. What changed?

Over the last five games Cam is completing 58% of his passes for 1,232 yards, has 9 TD's to just 2 INT's, and has an average rating of 103. Plus he has ran for 214 yards and 3 TD's. Cam had some struggles earlier, but has been playing very, very good football lately.

Can't knock him because the rest of the team consistently shits the bed.

expectations changed

Last year we were coming off a 2-14 season and we were all talking about how 4 wins would be huge.

This year, most everyone was expecting 8-8 or better (except for a few). Unfotunately, the easiest person to target when expectations aren't being met is the QB (outside of the head coach). Even if he is having a decent year.

unfortunately the most attractive talking point for pundits is "over the last five games cam newton has completed just fifty-eight percent of his passes. that's abysmal. is it the towel? ego? it's safe to say there's a really bad sophomore slump going on here blah blah blah"

The issue still lies in the fact that we just can't seem to win close games.

Neither the defense nor the offense seem to be able to stand up and make a play when we really need it.

The defense was weak yesterday. But, the offense did have the ball twice in the final 8 minutes needing a TD to win....and could not close the deal. Now, the play calling sucked as usual....but you still gotta make plays when the game is on the line.

Until this offense can demonstrate the ability to do that, Cam will continue to be questioned by the media....unfairly a lot of times, but it will continue to happen.

I would leave off the completion pct in that debate, that's pretty low. I wouldn't have expected it to be that low....

If you are comparing it to quarterbacks that run the spread of wco then it would be low. For a qb running a vertical passing game like coryell air its decent. He is throwing a higher percentage of deep balls which will naturally hurt completion pct but help ypa.

    • Interestingly I think we have kind of of gone through this as an organization. Richardson implemented an FO driven tank. Bad roster, no cash spent, coach uninterested. It may have been for different reasons but I think the results were the same. A team that wasn't going to win many if any games. We ended up with the #1 pick. Cam Newton came in and changed the franchise. It worked, but Cam himself pointed to the losing culture in the locker room needing to be changed. It probably took about 2-3 years for that to happen. Tank worked pretty damn well for us. Cam is one of one. Not another like him, everyone can't deliver on his draft status AND change a culture basically on his own.  So as an exercise here are the last 30 #1 picks. If you tanked and got to pick #1 how many of these guys do you think were worth it? Not just good players, but franchise changers. Guys who will take your culture and shift it so the tank was actually worth it. I would say maybe 9 or 10 guys would be worth a tank, pending the last 5 picks?    2025: Cam Ward (Miami (FL)) - Tennessee Titans 2024: Caleb Williams (USC) – Chicago Bears 2023: Bryce Young (Alabama) – Carolina Panthers 2022: Travon Walker (Georgia) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2021: Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2020: Joe Burrow (LSU) – Cincinnati Bengals 2019: Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) – Arizona Cardinals 2018: Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) – Cleveland Browns 2017: Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) – Cleveland Browns 2016: Jared Goff (California) – Los Angeles Rams 2015: Jameis Winston (Florida State) – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2014: Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina) – Houston Texans 2013: Eric Fisher (Central Michigan) – Kansas City Chiefs 2012: Andrew Luck (Stanford) – Indianapolis Colts 2011: Cam Newton (Auburn) – Carolina Panthers 2010: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) – St. Louis Rams 2009: Matthew Stafford (Georgia) – Detroit Lions 2008: Jake Long (Michigan) – Miami Dolphins 2007: JaMarcus Russell (LSU) – Oakland Raiders 2006: Mario Williams (North Carolina State) – Houston Texans 2005: Alex Smith (Utah) – San Francisco 49ers 2004: Eli Manning (Mississippi) – San Diego Chargers 2003: Carson Palmer (USC) – Cincinnati Bengals 2002: David Carr (Fresno State) – Houston Texans 2001: Michael Vick (Virginia Tech) – Atlanta Falcons 2000: Courtney Brown (Penn State) – Cleveland Browns 1999: Tim Couch (Kentucky) – Cleveland Browns 1998: Peyton Manning (Tennessee) – Indianapolis Colts 1997: Orlando Pace (Ohio State) – St. Louis Rams 1996: Keyshawn Johnson (USC) – New York Jets 1995: Ki-Jana Carter (Penn State) – Cincinnati Bengals
