Cam Setting Records


Gallagher

Recommended Posts

Cam has thrown 152 passes without an interception. This is a franchise record.

For posterity, this is more passes without an interception than: Kerry Collins, Steve Beuerlein, Chris Weinke, Matt Lytle, Randy Fasani, Rodney Peete, Jake Delhomme, Vinny Testaverde, David Carr, Matt Moore, Brian St. Pierre or Jimmy Clausen.

And people say he has trouble with his decision making and accuracy.

It's actually the longest active streak in the NFL right now.

Steve Young's longest streak w/o pick was 185. Montana's was 154. Aaron Rodgers 181. Those are the only three I can find sans Tom Brady, which Cam Newton won't even come close to cracking unless he gets quite lucky and improves tenfold (because, while he is very good, it takes quite the QB to go that long without a pick and even Brady got a bit lucky).

Hey is also roughly 350-400 yards from passing Peyton Manning for the most passing yards in a QB's first 2 seasons ever (although Luck will likely have a good shot at breaking that record next year).

He is a heckuva player and I can't wait to see him excel when the games matter.

Already the best QB in franchise history.

I wouldn't go that far yet. He needs to lead some quality winning seasons and have a couple of Rams double overtime moments to surpass Delhomme. Hard to beat out Jake after only two seasons. After its all said and done I'll probably agree if he can start leading us to some winning seasons. But right now I think it's two early for that.

You'd have to be blind to not think he has problems with accuracy. He has gotten a lot better about his decision making the latter half of the year, but as far as accuracy.....there is room for improvement to say the least.

he unquestionably still chucks some high balls and makes questionable decisions at times. that screen pass TD to williams was a toss-up situation that finally broke our way for once but it could have just easily been a tipped INT which would have swung the early momentum back hard to the chargers.

either way the improvement is palpable and encouraging. hopefully we'll end the year on a high note and it'll carry over.

I think consistency is his problem. He can make every throw, and be as accurate as any one in the league. Now, when he does it 60 - 70 percent of the time... then he'll truly be elite.

Yeah, maybe he'll learn to be as accurate as, say, Eli Manning one day.

Or John Elway.

    • Damn back to 10th. I only caught the last 5 minutes but some of those 3's were horrible lol. In that close of game you can't be launching those many hail mary's when you could be chipping away from the foul line. I guess no one wanted to get in the paint and didn't trust the refs to give them the calls maybe? Gonna watch the highlights to get a better idea of the flow of the game
    • I agree.  The Big 12 is a good conference, and he is the swinging dick in that conference.  If Bill Self retires, that sets Kansas back a bit, and Arizona moves even further ahead as the best team in that conference.  Arizona can crush west coast recruiting with USC / UCLA no longer being relevant for LA kids, and Gonzaga not being able to compete moneywise.   If Lloyd comes here, he will be second fiddle to Duke every single year in NIL and recruits.  Not to mention the entire SEC and Big East for kids who want to stay in those regions to play. This is why I keep saying go get Mark Few.  Has proven he can do more with less from an X / O perspective but can also recruit All American players and compete at a high level. He's a god at Gonzaga, but for $9M he'd make the move as that's 4x what he's making at Gonzaga, and makes him the highest paid coach in the country. 
    • Certainly not going to miss his constant whiffs on sacks and tackles.
