The Young Quarterbacks


RelaxImaPro

Recommended Posts

MNF did 5 best young QB's last night as:

1. Andrew Luck

2. Russel Wilson

3. Colin Kaepernick

4. Robert Griffin III

5. Cam Newton

They thought Cam fits #5 or lower. Then RG3 could/should be higher. Some of the analysts say they could have Colin at #2. And some analysts thought Tannehill should be included and Wilson off or possibly Cam. one of them saying that most of these young QB's rely on one system to succeed and will not last long in the NFL.

It's hard to compare Cam against these QB's from 2012 - since Cams been in longer and has more data/stats to lower his avgs give or take. But, whatever.

Yes someone pointed that out already. Doesn't change the conclusion

 

It is largely irrelevant. Nobody says anything about him doing it, and nobody said anything about Teb0w's praying celebration.

 

Of all the things to be concerned about. It's dead last on the list.

Damn these mother fugers fumble a lot.  Either that or Cam has remarkably good ball security, especially considering he runs a good deal.

 

he had great ball security. i think he's going to get strip sacked half the time and he just rips the ball down and takes off.

 

remember that 7 yard TD run he had against the vikings this past sunday? he's just too strong.

They do and they did (especially The Golden Calf of Bristol, you must live under a rock if you don't recall people taking sides on that one.)

Luck and Wilson look legitimate.

Kaepernick? Still up in the air.

Griffin? I think he's the prototypical 'highlight' quarterback. He has the occasional highlight reel play that makes him look amazing, as long as you don't see what happened after that. And yes, he's fragile, painfully so. If he makes it through five years of playing in the NFL, I'll be shocked.

And then there's Newton...

There are certainly games where he looks like he has it all together. Unfortunately, there are also those games where you wonder what happened to that guy that looked like he had it all together :unsure:

His biggest challenges right now: gaining a greater level of consistency and dealing with adversity. If he can do those things, then he can get on the rollercoaster.

If he can't...not sure what happens next.

Pretty much this. I would also like to see his attitude and leadership continue to improve which I think it has already.

If anyone got upset about the Teb0w thing it was because of the religious aspect, not because he had the audacity to celebrate. I'm not sure if you have, but I haven't heard many people if any at all upset about Kaepernick celebrating. I've heard more about his tattoos.

 

Funny one of those articles you linked referred to Cam as "scam". There are things behind it that I won't delve into in this sub forum.

That was my exact point. And you understand why right?

 

You aren't going to say "because he wins" are you? Kaepernick has actually come back down to earth so far this season, if you've seen him play. Sure, of course wins help. That doesn't excuse or legitimize much of the ignorance our quarterback receives though.

 

Ultimately it's a team sport, wins are a team statistic. Guys like Kaepernick and Wilson play on immensely talented teams, with highly capable coaches, and more often than not they are simply asked to just not make critical mistakes, instead of shouldering the load.

    • It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ    
    • I don't know. CMC is like others and may have lip serviced that line of " I had no plan or wanted to leave Carolina" I think he even said he bought a house too and wanted this to be home.   Here's what I heard- In a way Panthers org gave him a test and he didn't "fight" back. They approached CMC and told him they wanted to put him on IR since the "season" was over or out of playoff reach. CMC didn't fight it one lick and agreed. They secretly wanted him to kept playing or want to, but there was no kickback. I honestly don't know if its real or not, 5th hand information type deal doing on. Yes he had bruises and pains, but was able to play...... but went along with Panthers staff. Odd to be playing games with star players, but whatever....   Plus the staff doctors found out about his tendinitis and there was nothing to fix it. Even with him missing time, it was the best move to trade him before he got inflamed constantly.    Lastly, its mostly time a combo of stuff, Fitterererere did not sign him to be the highest paid RB. That was classic Marty "give me a" herniay doing. GMs have different values on roster spots and rumor was Fitterererer was one that didn't want to pay RBs. For all his faults, he's right about that......
