Cam has already changed the NFL

The key world is "was". Media leans towards the desires of the population. People are more interested in hearing about RG3. Nfl is also a business first and a game second. If RG3 has any success whatsoever, all teams will be getting QBs that fit the persona. Obviously, teams will not dump the Bradys, Rodgers, or Mannings, teams will start preparing for the new wave.

Luck starts OTAs today, there had been nothing to report on him.

lol Cam has nothing to do with it. If RG3 was sucking it up in camp do you think his name would be on everyones lips? No. RG3 is getting press because RG3 is a bad bad man.

If it wasn't for Cam RGIII would have recieved a lot more scrutiny in the pre draft process....the ones before Cam would have been the bar for an athletic QB coming out of that college scheme.

He could of still gone number 2....but basic logic tells you Cam made the draft process easier on RGIII.

Thats what everyone was saying about Cam. But look what he did for the org..

Cam got drafted by a franchise coming of a shitty season....RGIII got drafted by what is now a shitty franchise. A noted difference

Do you even know the history of your own franchise??

We know your franchise has been in a rut for a very long time with a string of laughable management decisions that go back into the last millennium.

Note I said is now a shitty franchise....which implies at one time the Skins weren't.

Lets look at both franchises since Carolina came into the league.

Carolina

3 NFC Championship appearances

1 Superbowl appearance

1 Conference title

6 playoff wins

Vs

Redskins

2 playoff wins

Redskins have become a shitty franchise. Look how they have stacked up to the lowly Panthers. LOL

And i'm saying that Cam or any other quarterback for that matter had nothing to do with the press/hype or over all good feelings about Robert Griffin III. He's earned the spotlight on his own. I think Panther fans have such an inferiority complex about their team its like a punch in the gut when an opposing player gets a little pat on the back. Strange

Look at how much hype RG3 is getting. The media is hyping him a lot higher than Luck. Why is that?? Its because of the "Cam Effect" on the NFL. The whole time leading up to Cam's rookie season, everyone was wondering how big of a bust he would be. Now, with RG3, everyone is looking at how big of a star he will be. Just goes to show you another example of the "Cam Effect". Welcome to the new era, where the Joe Montana and John Elway clone QBs may not be the most desired.

I don't feel it's because of Cam. Cam's successful rookie season did remove some of the VY and Jamarcus Russel negative stigma the media created around black QBs. But, I believe RG III was always a better QB than Luck. IMO, those in the media simply wanted Luck to go first. Plus RG III is part of Tom Condon's stable of clients. You're not allowed to really trash or speak ill of Tom Condon's clients in the media. No matter how bad their are.

this I agree with

Some want to use the concept of opening doors for other QBs as a way to praise Newton but they will end up bashing any QB that uses that "open door".

Right, Cam had to do with the lack of scrutiny RGIII received about being an athletic QB, playing in his non pro style college system, a being a one year college wonder.

RGIII's positives would have still been there....Cam's historic season caused people not to focus on certain things and question his ability to play in the NFL. Cam pretty much made everyone doing the standard athletic black QB from a non pro system doubting....look like fools. RGIII benefited....not knock on RGIII. I think RGIII should of gone 1. You are trying to spin things like people are trying to place Newton above RGIII in this talk and that isn't it

So you don't think because of the crow they had to eat because of Cam hasn't made them at least a little less likely to criticize? That being said, I agree that RG3 is a bad man.

Nice going, but just because Carolina has been better than Washington in recent history doen't mean they still don't occupy the same dumpster.

By always better than Luck you mean always thought that during the percentage of one season?
