I can link 50 articles that say the same thing When you listed him along with RG3, Steve Spurrier, and the Run and Shoot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexGreen#20 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Just now, cannondale said: I simply stated that I take the 6'-4" pocket passer any day of the week over the 6'-0" scrambling QB. Not sure why it's so offensive That is not remotely what you "simply stated". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"It's a heck of a lot easier to be the best athlete on the field in college. Not so much in the pros. Ask Cam Newton how that went for him." Is that statement wrong ? It simply states Cam took a beating. Don't know what you're chasing here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In college Cam was bigger and faster and stronger than everyone. In the pros, not so much, and his body found that out. You're chasing ghosts and I don't know why Edited March 28, 2020 by cannondale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'll be honest, even that isn't great. Diminishing his achievements to just being athletic is dumb and insulting. Cam Newton wasn't and was never just a raw athlete. He was a guy leading an NFL offense at a damn high level for a number of years. Edited March 28, 2020 by AlexGreen#20 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so much in the pros. Ask Cam Newton how that went for him. Ask RGIII. Is the run-n-shoot still the offense of the future ? Is Steve Spurrier still destined to decimate NFL defenses ? Offenses aren't changing, just becoming less complex due to many factors. Give me the prototypical QB every day of the week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexGreen#20 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 The fact that people are going to fail to appreciate the dude that was maybe the best athlete in the history of the NFL is amazing. If JJ Watt could throw, that would be Cam Newton. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norm Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 1 minute ago, cannondale said: Where did I say that ? I edited that out but you simply didn't say "Oh I prefer prototypical QBs" I'm saying the prototypical QB is far more of what I was talking about to start this in 2020. What the NFL looks for now in blue Chip QBs isn't the same. If you want a ton Brady, that's cool. I don't think that's what the league as a whole wants anymore. Which is what I was talking about the entire time, the NFL. Not posters personal preference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
