You have to hand it to Bradford because that guy made more money in the NFL that 90% of all QB's. The dude would get hurt at Chuck E Cheeze.

Newton very rarely if ever does the feet first, NFL qb,sissy slide. Newton will lower his shoulder to take on defenders and dive head first for extra yardage and first downs. I do respect him for that



Sshhhhhh this is tRant, its an unwritten rule that only Auburn fans and South Carolina fans who are also Panther fans are allowed to say anything remotely positive about Cam ever

Bleacher Report article on an anonymous player poll do you even take the time to read one sentence before you reply? The survey was done by The Atlantic. That is a pay site, so if you'd like to buy a subscription and then share the login info with the board so we can all read the original article, then be my guest.



You linked an article from Bleacher Report.

Here is the first paragraph:

"Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton and Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins both missed the playoffs, but they came in on opposite ends of the spectrum in an anonymous survey of 85 defensive players from 25 different teams conducted by The Athletic."

So yes, a BR article on an anonymous players poll

And like I said, and the part that you quoted said, the survey was done by The Atlantic which is a legitimate site. The original article is linked in the bleacherreport article.


What point are you even trying to make?

Eli Manning was the runner-up as the most overrated signal-caller, although Joe Flacco, Matt Ryan, Matthew Stafford, Tom Brady, Derek Carr, Andy Dalton, Dak Prescott, Jameis Winston and Sam Bradford all received multiple votes.


I will give you two guesses why a State fan isn't happy about this.

Yea, and Vecchio Cane also happens to be one of the most butthurt MSU fans there is when it comes to Cam. Posting about Cam is like putting up the Vecchio Cane bat signal

obviously. An anonymous survey of 85 NFL players.

So 5% of the NFL was polled anonymously. And this is thread worthy?

I think so.

Definitely good discussion.

Certainly more thread worthy than the post about Women's basketball

The fact that it's an anonymous survey makes it more accurate.

Do you think players are going to speak honestly about an opposing teams QB or their own if they had their name tied to their answer? Hell no. Every single player would say their own teams QB was most underrated and every other one is most overrated, and that's about the only type of answer you'd get.


I bet you're all over those annual threads on here with anonymous quotes from SEC coaches and players

Your vagina is showing.

That isn't a fan poll. That poll is from guys who suit up every Sunday.

ETA Did I miss Dak on the list?

and the fact that only 5% were asked, and a dozen QBs were named makes the survey pretty useless
