Forget Cam, is Bridgewater even better than Kyle Allen?

No I wouldn't make these threads about Cam because he had earned the respect of the fans. Even in his second game as a pro, Cam had 3 INTs, but he also almost upset the reigning champion Packers in that same game. He was also a rookie and still learning the game.

This was Bridgewater's second game with the Panthers, but not his second game as a pro. 3 turnovers is a bad game for any QB but it's especially bad when you make as much money as Bridgewater is. We could have (and did) get the same positive and negative performance from Kyle Allen we've seen from Bridgewater so far, which is exactly my point. We paid $20m a season for a guy who is basically the same skillset as Allen but maybe he's more experienced and has a better NFL pedigree. I guess we'll see if he can turn it around and win some games. If CMC really does miss time, this season is going to get really bad, and then I would have rather had a young cheap QB with upside than a ridiculously overpriced nice guy with a noodle arm.

And EDIT: To answer your first question, Cory Littleton or AJ Klein would have been way better options at MLB than Tahir Whitehead who signed for basically the vet minimum and is trash and a penalty liability.

Whitehead is the worst starting MLB in the NFL.

Should have paid Bradberry instead p

Someone posted that Bradberry didn't even want to negotiate with the Panthers and had no interest in coming back. I don't blame him but why go to another sorry ass team like the Giants

Yes, he is better than Kyle. I can recall many, many games where Cam had INTs and probably a fumble. Only difference was no one has the balls to put the blame on the diva ... ever. But it's easy to put it on TB, right Hep?

Cam earned everyone's respect, Teddy will have to do the same. Put the team on his back and win with a bad team around him.

Still waiting for anyone to tell me how Bridgewater’s 3 ugly turnovers and weak weak WEAK ass arm being paid $20m a season is any better than keeping Kyle Allen on a cheap deal. They are basically the same QB skills wise. Allen is much younger and way cheaper. We could have signed some legit defensive talent with that money and run the same dink and dunk offense Bridgewater runs.

Secondly, anyone who watched the film from Bridgewater’s games with the Saints last season would have seen that Michael Thomas made Bridgewater look way better than he actually played and he wasn’t worth what he got paid.

I hope he proves me wrong but I am really not happy with Bridgewater so far. If he was on a cheap deal I’d be less negative but that dude is making more than Cam would have made and he’s playing like Kyle f*cking Allen.

Not really. He had a couple of bad passes. He has much more command of the offense and does not look at all lost, or that the game is too big for him. Not to mention that Allen had a season to prepare with the guys he was actually playing with. Allen sucks! Stop comparing Bridgewater to him. It may appear like a valid comparison on the surface, but that's where it stops!

Weird. I already respect TB as a player, as he's been around. He doesn't need to earn anything with me. I already know he can win.

Bridgewater hasn’t won on this team yet, and it is tough to win on the Panthers. Something is weirdly wrong with this franchise. No back to back winning seasons in 25 seasons is pretty bad. Only other team that hasn’t had back to back winning seasons since 1995 are the Browns. Maybe it’s the black cat mascot being bad luck, I dunno. Something is just wrong with this team. Even an elite HOF talent like Cam Newton had problems winning on the Panthers.

I'm not a D.J. Moore hater. He is what he is, which is likely a high end WR2 and not the WR1 that people say that they want (you know, like 89, AB, Hopkins, Adams...in that mold).

The bar for being a WR1 isn’t being Nuk or AB in their primes.    Outside of Adams you basically named WRs who are could be argued as being the best in all the NFL at a point.
