One glaring Kapernick flaw

If you would have visited the Redskins board at this time last year, the EXACT same thing Panthers fans are saying about Kap is the EXACT same thing Redskins fans were saying about Newton.

 

Now the Panthers fans are saying it about RGIII.

 

Its quite amusing. 

He's winning now, so,  hey, things change.

Look, the only argument for QBR being out of context as it relates to Kap vs. Newton is that Kap plays with a better line. So you could argue that Kap's numbers are better because of it. However, I would just respond that Kap plays in the NFC West, therefore that negates any advantage Kap has over Newton.

 

You can't argue that the 49er have a better defense...

You can't argue play calling...Roman is more hated that Shula is here

You can't argue experiences...

You can't argue that Kap is in a more QB friendly system...

You can't argue that Newton was hurt and missed sometime...

 

You can try to argue WR/TE talent but once again-- within context-- the advantage is negligible. 

 

There is no noticeable advantage that Kap has over Newton. Therefore, I fail to see how QBR is taken out of context. And I fail to see how Newton (or any of the other young QBs) are way better passers than Kaepernick.

 

If you can't see how QBR or any other stat needs to be viewed in the context of what a QB is being asked to do, then there's no point continuing this discussion. 

 

Kaep has had success within the parameters of what he's been asked to do and Cam has had success within the parameters of what he's been asked to do. It just so happens that Cam has been asked to do much more as a passer and that's not a matter of opinion - it's a simple statement of fact.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
