ESPN article on QB success where drafted

Recommended Posts

Well, he didn't call Cam a bust, so you're wrong on that part. But lol at Luck.

 

I swear, he could get voted into the hall today based on absolutely nothing. Why writers stick to that story line is totally beyond me. He's a decent QB so far. No more, no less.

Notice Cam is a bust after dropped TDs, first downs, and big gains aid in a loss to Arizona, while the league's 21st rated passer is "Hall of Fame discussion" after being lambasted by 29 in the same venue. LMAO, can't make this up.

 

 

He does not have Cam as a bust, he has him as "serviceable to very good", which is on a three scale system:

HOF-potential

Servicable-to-very-good

Bust

 

 

The only odd reach in his article is Luck being "HOF-potential".  Der.

what article are you reading?

 

the one in the link says newton will be serviceable to very good. nowhere does it say bust.  I don't even see the word arizona anywhere in the article.

 

it may be premature to call luck a hofer, but the article isn't as negative as you're trying to make it out to be.

    • Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.
    • The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter. 
    • Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
