Why does NFL media hate Cam Newton? (Bear fans take on Cam.)

[teeray]

TonyN get lonely and trolls for attention. He knows he is full of it. Just leave him be

[a_gumbel]

People are critical of cam because he's a first overall pick. This always leads to more scrutiny,just wait til our boy Andy luck loses to the pats. Cams great don't get me wrong and he stays a panther no questions asked. But there are aspects of his game that require development. Do you think its a coincidence that Peyton gets more poo than Brady? And they were drafted moons ago. Expectations are a ****** and cam gotta rise up peteey Pablo style.

Cam Newton's completion percentage this year is identical to Andrew Luck's CAREER completion percentage.

I don't think anyone thinks he has struggled

Who cares about what Luck did his rookie year, which drags down his career percentage. His completion % has gone up every year and this year, the present, he finished with a 61.7% completion.

Anyone using completion % as a way to trash Cam,    should be writing G-man a ton of letters,  asking him to lure Chad Pennington out of retirement and play for us for a couple of years.          Pennington's career completion is 66%,    Much better than not only Cam,  but most of the so called "elite" qbs.

Who cares what Cam did last year it drags down his career percentage. Last year he had major injuries, all new receivers, all new Oline. But yeah let's forget Lucks rookie season. Your an idiot.

Ah okay so that doesn't count.  Luck is in his third year?

 

Let's see what was Cam's completion percentage his 3rd year in the league?

 

Ironically it was also exactly 61.7%

 

So do we throw out bad years and include good years for both or....

 

Luck needs to work on his accuracy and fundamentals.

 

Jury is still out on that guy.  Sheesh, Colts better hold up and see what they really have there

So now you want to judge a qb on his rookie year and not the most current one? Are you serious? What relevance does his rookie year have to how good he is right now? The mental gymnastics you'll go through to make Cam look good and Luck bad are amazing.

I was making fun of you clearly that went over your head. You see how delusional you sound?

I'm not talking about throwing out anything. I'm talking about the present, what that qb currently is doing. What happened 3 years ago is irrelevant, what happened this most recent year is what is relevant. Are we going to live in the past so Luck has a bad completion percentage compared to Cam? If Luck regresses and his completion drops below 60 I'm sure we'll hear about it next year.

I remember that a couple of years ago it wasn't about stats but about the 4th quarter and willing teams to wins

 

So... Cam had 4 fourth quarter comebacks and 3 Game winning drives this season

 

Luck had only one of each

 

 

Therefore.... Luck isn't clutch like Cam is.  Good quarterbacks show up with the game on the line in the 4th.  Therefore Cam > Luck this season

[teeray]

You know by doing this I am learning that using Cam haters logic to arbitrarily decide what is important in the moment makes this game easier

 

No wonder they do it all the time

Don't you see the fact that you wanting to measure Luck in a bubble kills your argument? Let's do everything to Luck that happened to Cam and then compare their numbers. It's insanity to compare them this year.

Just remove as many games from Luck that Cam missed. That alone would change Lucks numbers. Then add all the issues with the panthers to the colts and boom your argument falls apart.

115 TDs.    close to 17k yards.  In his first four years. 

 

 

 

Third only to Peyton and Marino's first four years.

 

 

 

 

 

  That's all anyone has to say to get the little kids all riled up.   Eventually,  You'll get a wall of text from one of them,  explaining why Ryan Leaf was better than Cam.

[TonyN]

Nuthuggers are like a bunch of pubescent girls squealing over a perceived slight to Justin Bieber...

 

Get ready to squeal this Sunday, when against all odds, Luck leads a very, very mediocre Colts team to the Super Bowl...

 

I can't wait to hear the avalanche of excuses...
