PFF Says the likes of Dak Prescott, Marcus Mariota, and Tyrod Taylor + 2 more are better running quarterbacks than Cam

[Saca312]

Well, this shows how bad PFFs grading system can be.

Even though Cam amassed more yards than all of them on the ground? And also has more career rushing yards than all of them.

In general, people are going to be down on cam until he proves he can be a consistently efficient passer. I know this isnt the point of the thread , but in general people's main arguements against Cam being one of the top 10 QBs is that his passing efficiency his been extremely erradic in the past 2 seasons and they view 2015 as a fluke/outlier because he hasnt come close to that performance since then.

maribusta, dook prescott, and tyrod "benched for nathan peterman" taylor aren't even viewed as better throwers. only one one this list who is is russell.

If you take off the homer glasses and think about it objectively you will realize that that is absolutely, positively the........................................ dumbest poo you will read this offseason.

 

The hate is real yall.

How can a QB that leads the TEAM in rushing not be considered the best, not everything is an analytic/stat. Some things are just common sense. If I'm not mistaken Cam also led all QB's in rushing yards and TD's, and currently holds the record for QB rushing TD's in a season set in 2011....

PFF is nice when you want some data, but the way they grade is asinine when you start to actually look at the results ON THE FIELD.

[motocross_cat]

Ask any defender in the NFL who the best running QB is and I'll bet a paycheck its Cam.  Need 70 yards to ice a game?  Cam.  Need him to fly 8 yards over motherfugers to score?  Cam.  Need a front flip on the goal line?  Cam.  Juke out 7 defenders in the back field then bulldoze for a first down?  Cam.  HE HAS CARRIED THE GOD DAMN TEAM FOR 6 fuging YEARS LAYING IT ALL ON THE LINE.  idk why this makes me so mad.

I think you all are going of Cams yards and not seeing what they're talking about. Under Shula, we ran Cam... A lot... As the primary runner, so there's where the majority of his yards come from. I think ,IMO, his article is referring to running as a passer, aka, scrambling when a play breaks down .I could be wrong, but I never we're homer goggles and assume everyone is trashing Cam

I know who this is  

Way to go @KB_fan

 

[motocross_cat]

Dak.  Trash

Deshaun. Glass

Mariota. Has done WHAT?

Tyrod. Benched for a rookie.

Wilson. fugboi

[motocross_cat]

Whew lost it there for a second.

The stats are only for 2017. While he may had more yards, TDS and attempts he didn’t lead in Yards per attempt. Other things to consider are:

 

how many fumbles each QB had, how many negative yard plays he had and how many kneel downs he had which does affect YPA.

[Cyberjag]

I think that Seattle is the only team on that list that wouldn't necessarily trade their guy for Cam in a heartbeat, and the others would probably throw in picks as well.

[Ricky Spanish]

Majority of Cam's runs are designed. Majority of the other dude's runs were scrambles. 

Makes sense that Cam wouldn't be as "efficient" as the other dudes by certain metrics because he's getting the hard, in between the tackle yards for his team. 

I'm not butt hurt. You shouldn't be butt hurt. Stop being butt hurt.

Are they just pulling arbitrary numbers out of the air?
