Cam's historical pace (stat heavy)

I found these using profootballreference's season finder. I am a big believer in y/pa ( yards per pass attempt), and ay/pa (adjusted yards per pass attempt), and also completion percentage to project quarterbacks long term.

 

 

Cam is on pace to be one of 2 quarterbacks to have 3 seasons of +7.8 y/pa during their first 3 seasons (minimum 6 starts)

Otto Graham is the other (HOF, retired in 1955)

 

 

Cam is on pace to be 1 of 2 quarterbacks to have +6.16 ay/pa during their first 3 seasons (minimum 6 starts)

Dan Marino is the other

13 others had 2 ... Peyton Manning, Matt Ryan, Carson Palmer, Roethlisberger, Rypien, Warner, Cutler, Esiason, Bulger, Kaepernick, RGIII, Jeff Garcia, Russel Wilson

 

 

Cam is on pace to be +6 AY/PA and +57% completion % in all of his first 3 seasons so far.

There are 23 other QBs with 4 or more seasons with those types of numbers during their first 6 seasons

 

Those 23 QBs, sorted by number of seasons:

Joe Flacco, Jeff Garcia, Jim Kelly, Dan Marino, Roethlisberger, Matt Ryan, Peyton Manning, Joe Montana, Marc Bulger, Mark Brunell, Troy Aikman, Tom Brady, Jason Campbell, Daunte Culpepper, Jay Cutler, Delhomme :), Brett Favre, Bernie Kosar, Jim McMahon, Donovan McNabb, Carson Palmer, Philip Rivers, Tony Romo

    • Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.
    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
