A healthy Cam or CMC who do you resign?

[JARROD]

“Healthy” wouldn’t even be a question. 

Cam Newton “healthy” is one of the most prolific and lethal players in the league and when he’s healthy mentally and physically he’s a winner.

the question is now what does Cam and CMac look like after this season.

will Cam look anything like the Cam we want or will he look like weak cigar smoking Vegan Cam?

Cmac is seeing a lot of touches. Can he keep it up?

lots of speculation and a lot of football to answer those questions.

Incorrect. 2015.

Was he a top paid QB at that point? I dont think he actually was. IF Im correct then it would go all the way back to the last time Eli Manning won.

Just answering off the title:

CMC had an otherworldy season last year. We had a losing record.

Cam had an otherworldy year in 2015 and we went to a Super Bowl.

A healthy Cam puts this team on another level. A healthy CMC is amazing but we had one last year, too.

GOOD PERSPECTIVE.

You choose Cam. A franchise QB is more valuable than a top RB any day. RBs can be replaced just ask the Pats. 

The QB is important but He cannot run the machine without the gears that make that machine run smoothly. It is just plain ridiculous to replace/trade/ a player or players that are what makes team work.

There's no correlation between those two factors.

When you have a great run game but  everything else is breaking down, it makes no sense to suggest that the run game is somehow a problem. It's like saying 'We had a good defense last year but a losing season. Maybe we shouldn't have a good defense."

QB is more important than RB. Does that answer it better?

Could you really imagine an offense without Cmc? We are already living a world with out Cam Newton and have been 2-0 the last two weeks. As much as I like Cam, Im not paying an injury proned and older Cam Newton 35+million a year for the next how many years. Bad teams get in trouble when they compensate players for what they have done for them in the past and not for the future. I can feel comfortable paying cmc top dollar and running him to the ground until he cant anymore.

That’s why you draft one if Allen or Grier isnt the answer

Would you keep Eli Manning over Saquon Barkley?

And still wouldn't get to the heart of the decision.

Logic like "a quarterback is always more valuable than a running back" leads you to keep Eli Manning over Saquon Barkley.

You still ultimately have to make the decision on individual factors.

Well, yeah, you have to look at it from a perspective of where they are in their careers, cost, age, etc, etc. Obviously. But I am more interested in the general trends and how they correlate.

He was a top 10 paid QB, yes.

Cam is not Eli Manning level washed up, IMO. Eli is 38 years old.
