Does Sam Bradford get a career pass by the media?

<p>Here's a guy who was selected No.1 overall and signed a contract bigger than Tom Brady's before he even threw a pass. Had a decent rookie year, and has been below-average ever since. Rams traded Number 2 overall pick, where they were in position to take RG3 instead they trade down to build around Sam. RG3 is having one of the most remarkable rookie seasons ever, and Bradford continues his terrible play. Rams have invested money, draft picks and coaches into Bradford and he still has yet to show he can be "The next Tom Brady". This is why some of us fans question the media's motives when dragging Cam's name in the mud.

Cam has a below-average half a season and gets absolutely thrashed, hell, some thought we should consider trading him during the offseason.

If that isn't sensationalized reporting, I don't know what is.

Actually Bradford is one of the few brightspos of the Rams offense.

His offensive line is terrible and he just now has an emerging #1 WR.

The Rams have been a bad team for over a decade. They need more than just a QB. RGIII would not be doing what he is now in St.Louis. Cam would not be doing what he is now in St.Louis. Not a lot of rookie/2nd year QBs could succeed in St. Louis.

As if our line wasn't terrible at the beginning at the season, that is the MAIN reason why Cam struggled. I didn't hear that from the media though, it was "Cam needs to mature".

Trust me, our o-line would be an upgrade from St. Louis'.

Take into account they had no offensive weapons outside of Jackson.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying there's not a double standard for Cam, but Bradford isn't at all a bust.

Bradfords stats aren't that bad, best QB rating of his career at 81.5

Bradford, Stafford and company also didn't set themselves up to be a Media Pinata by stealing a Laptop at FL, getting run off to Junior College then going to Auburn after his Dad auctioned off his services.

    • Especially with no other major sports in the area other than UNCW basketball and soccer. It's a good 2 1/2 hour drive just to catch a collegiate football game. If this new arena were built I would hope it also includes an Adult League - I would join up and time allowing would be more than happy to help coach some youth teams. 😄  
    • That was real fear in his eyes when the rope was being taken. My younger days, I had my best friend that happened to be black come over all the time. I had the nicest bulldog on the planet, my friend Damon was scared to death of him. His grandmother and daddy taught him to fear all dawgs and seen the same fear in his face and voice.    I think alllll young kids should take swimming lessons and not fear the water. Very thankful my parents did this, I no longer get in the ocean since its 50% sewage. But I enjoyed all the lakes, pools, and oceans I swam in.     
    • My personal opinion is the non-guaranteed contract is the main reason for NFL success. MLB and NBA players are on cruise control after their big contracts and it shows in the product.  NFL is each year you are fighting for your job. Same for the majority of the public.... You get lazy or try to coast after the 100+ million contract, your ass will be cut within 1-2 years. Then the next one will not even touch 100 million+. Besides a few NBA players like Kobe was coming for blood with a 300 million contract or 1 doll hair deal. Brandy Beal just reached a buyout where he was getting 110 million, many other cases..... I dare say his name for the hornets guy..... MLB sooo many times as well.    If the NFL starts fully guaranteeing all contracts, Id have a new hobby to fill the hours of entertainment NFL gave me.
