ESPN: Wilson is the better overall quarterback now and in some ways is vastly superior to Newton.

Newton led all quarterbacks in rushing touchdowns (10) and was tied for second in passing touchdowns (35), becoming the only player in league historyto rack up at least 30 passing touchdowns and 10 rushing touchdowns. Despite those impressive achievements, after breaking down the game tapes and metrics, it is clear that Wilson is the better overall quarterback now and in some ways is vastly superior to Newton.

He did his job, he got clicks!

When Newton wins a Super Bowl, will he be considered as good as Wilson?  If he wins two?  Will he be better?  I think everyone gets caught up in the completion percentage numbers.  

Folks can write whatever they want, but if we had Wilson as our QB, would wouldn't be 15-1.

Why post this poo? "Thoughts?" Bitch, what kind of thoughts are you expecting? fug KC Joyner and ESPN, can we stop giving these trolls what they want by regurgitating their poo here?

Actual conversation regarding what he said. Too much to ask? 

If you never read anything that you disagree with,you will never open yourself up to anything that doesn't already confirm your opinion which leaves you with a high chance of being wrong.

    • He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc. 
    • The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position. 
    • Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
