Cam Newton vs Andrew Luck , A First Take Topic

[Hoenheim]

What do you think about this? They basically all picked Luck over Cam . I thought this is kinda an interesting topic to revisit, after this had been talked about when I was first coming here to the huddle in 2010 season (before Luck declared he would go back to school alot of Panther fans were thinking we would draft him ). This might be a stupid question to ask Panther fans but I'm still very intersted to see what you have to say.

Talk to me when Luck wins league MVP while accounting for 50 total touchdowns with Ted Ginn Jr as his #1 WR.

I think most members of the media keep making excuses for Luck and seem very forgiving / more prone to look for his strengths and they seem to view Cam in the opposite way. With Cam they are often trying to focus on the negatives . 

I don't really like Steven A Smith that much but he brought up a great point. With all the negative press Cam gets, he doesn't really deserve it all because he's been an upstanding citizen and never gets into trouble yet the media and 95 percent of other NFL fans are constantly villifying him.

Obviously it's Cam.  But not worth the clicks or second thought at this point, not even in the dead offseason.

I think I don't give a fug. I'm completely over this poo with Luck.

[Snake]

Cam was MVP. There should be no more talk until luck is. Honestly Matt Ryan is a better QB than luck. I'm so glad he dodged the Panthers.

Dayum you guys are in  a bad mood tonight or what

Can you explain your answers a bit more? Thanks

Cam has won MVP without much help around him and a horrible offensive line. Luck has been a major dissapointment. ESPN always has something against Cam and the Panthers.

The media absolutely hates to admit that there wrong. Cam was painted as the self absorbed bust waiting to happen while luck was portrayed as the aw shucks can't miss future HOFer GOAT QB prospect ever. Every chance they get, even if it's forced, they'll revert back to those storylines.

In case of ratings drop, bash Cam/praise Luck.

Similar stats, Luck has one less season though. Cam a much better athlete. Any team should be happy with either QB. Will the Huddle EVER get over Luck?

 

What if I told you it's still not over Tom Brady?

I saw that. He's Edwards said something like cam looks at one route and then takes off running. If I'm not mistaken (someone on here may know) he only scrambled like 5 times. Most of his runs are designed. I know several ppl on here wanted to see cam take off and run more.

Teddy Bruschi said the same thing. He said Cmc won't help us that much bc cam looks at one guy and runs. Such ill informed douche nozzles. It's always bs against cam. They are both great players. Cam is a better football player and I'd take him over Luck any day. Luck "may" be a better passer, but I'd take cam still because he is such a threat.

like The Red said, when Luck wins an MVP with Teddy as his #1, then we can debate. Also, cam still just about had 4000 yards. His season wasn't great last year, but it was bad either. He will bounce back. 

I love how he has one down year and everyone forgets everything he has done.

The Huddle didn't bring up the Luck vs Cam topic, though. First take did, and we're discussing it.
