He isn't the only one.

If you would have visited the Redskins board at this time last year, the EXACT same thing Panthers fans are saying about Kap is the EXACT same thing Redskins fans were saying about Newton.

 

Now the Panthers fans are saying it about RGIII.

 

Its quite amusing. 

He's winning now, so,  hey, things change.

Look, the only argument for QBR being out of context as it relates to Kap vs. Newton is that Kap plays with a better line. So you could argue that Kap's numbers are better because of it. However, I would just respond that Kap plays in the NFC West, therefore that negates any advantage Kap has over Newton.

 

You can't argue that the 49er have a better defense...

You can't argue play calling...Roman is more hated that Shula is here

You can't argue experiences...

You can't argue that Kap is in a more QB friendly system...

You can't argue that Newton was hurt and missed sometime...

 

You can try to argue WR/TE talent but once again-- within context-- the advantage is negligible. 

 

There is no noticeable advantage that Kap has over Newton. Therefore, I fail to see how QBR is taken out of context. And I fail to see how Newton (or any of the other young QBs) are way better passers than Kaepernick.

 

If you can't see how QBR or any other stat needs to be viewed in the context of what a QB is being asked to do, then there's no point continuing this discussion. 

 

Kaep has had success within the parameters of what he's been asked to do and Cam has had success within the parameters of what he's been asked to do. It just so happens that Cam has been asked to do much more as a passer and that's not a matter of opinion - it's a simple statement of fact.
