Probably because you post on an ohio forum...

Don't you think national perception of Cam Newton always seems to be that he's good, despite his team? Yet when you really look at his numbers and watch his progression, is he that good? He's like the guy who people will always say he's due to "breakout" until he's like 30...

Can gets scrutinized more than Dalton. Just move to Carolina. You just think that because you only hear the Dalton stuff. National media isn't really hard on either of them...

I share this line of thinking. They are pretty harsh on cam.

The end of a few eras might be in front of us (Brees, Brady). Saints falling apart against Tampa, Brees just threw a pick 6. Bucs up 24-13.

Eh I don't think Brees is going anywhere this year or next year... but Brady yeah he could be moving onto a new team.

DeMarco Murray is a fucking beast though.

Brees may hang around for a bit, but will his team still be a serious threat? He's kind of where Brady was a few years ago...

Solid possession for TB. Holding from the 20, fumble from the 10 back to the 2, delay of game back to the 1, false start inside the 1, rush for no gain, sack for a safety.

Justice served in the Saints-Bucs game. Looked like Colston fumbled it but wasn't reviewed, then the Bucs intercepted it.

Not even close.

He also has 21 more career rushing touchdowns than Dalton, which is a pretty important stat. He's running less the past couple years because he isn't healthy, which holds back a huge part of what makes him a weapon.

Nice weapon to have to just throw the ball up and Bryant getting it. Everyone did their job but the safety.

At the beginning of the season, I said I thought Romo to Bryant would be the best connection in the league this year. I'll check it out at the end of the season. Ben - Brown seems to be a nice one as well. Not sure how Stafford - Johnson has been, but seems like Manning - Thomas hasn't been that great. Disclaimer: I have watched little of the Broncos and Lions so far this year.

Ben can't throw it up to Brown....but they are a good connection for sure. There are only a handful that a QB can just throw it up to....Dez definitely one of them

It's amazing how few capable quarterbacks are out there. Logan Thomas, Charlie Whitehurst, and Christian Ponder all playing the same week.

Both the Ryan brothers could be out of jobs soon. Actually I take that back, Rex will never be fired.

I'm trying to think of how many teams Logan Thomas wouldn't start for in college. It's at least 10 and very well may be 20 or more.
