The idiots on Twitter trying to convince everyone that Cam was a scrub lol

This is why this entire fiasco is a clown show led by a clown with a goofy hot take. Now (as I'm sure he's thrilled to see), this whole shyt has devolved i to bickering about and between the media figures making the arguments instead of the player they're arguing about.

Ryan Clark vs Cam Newton, with people attacking Cam Newton's career. You could never in a million years from reading that sentence deduce that this stems from the reaction to the play of Jalen Hurts. This is manufactured sports talk garbage.

T.O. called it out from the door, which is why all Cam could respond to him with was some weak shyt about him hating him because he's a QB. :comeon:

I understand what Cam is saying, Jalen is a great QB but not elite physically. A little above average arm strength, not the biggest or fastest. I mean Josh Allen, Burrow, Lamar even Herbert, who I don't believe is a top ten QB are heavy on tangibles. Probably 70% to 30% intangibles. Hurts is almost the total opposite, mostly intangibles. Cam won with brute physicality so his views on QB will be shaped by that. Jalen might be the strongest QB in the league though.

The thing is, the talking heads called out Jalen Hurts a lot last year because in their eyes, he wasn't doing enough statistically with the talent surrounding him (he still isn't, but the point is to win the game).

AJ Brown said that the passing aspect was an issue, even when they were winning. The offensive line came out early last season and said the offense needs to go through the running game first and foremost.

Then you go back and look at Hurts' statistics from the bye week on compared to the first four weeks of the season... and you see the difference.

If anyone were to point to all of that and say "Jalen Hurts isn't a top 10 QB because the Philadelphia Eagles became the best version of themselves when they figuratively took the ball out of his hands, and no team with a legitimate top 10 QB would run an offense meant to keep that QB from throwing the ball", I could see why they felt that way.

And T.O. took the same route everybody else did and shat on Cam for not diving on that fumble in the Super Bowl. That's all anybody will ever have on him. The main reason Cam didn't fire off on T.O. is that the basis of a lot of his "petty" retorts was rooted in Cam having accomplished more than those who came at his neck.

T.O. is a hall of famer. Cam can't discredit that.

T.O. also balled out in the Super Bowl after coming back early from breaking his leg. He can say that.

Look I think cam is wrong about Jalen yes the eagles have a great roster but Jalen is a good QB but Man eagles fans on twitter are saying that cam newton had good offensive weapons and Jalen would've won that Super Bowl :dwillhuh: :dahell: :mindblown: Look I think Jalen is a top 10 QB between 7 to 10 but if Jalen was on the 2015 panthers they don't even make the playoffs let alone the superbowl cam was throwing to Ted Ginn as WR1 :dead:

Jalen made the playoffs with Jalen Raegor/Quez Watkins getting 130 targets and a defense 18th in points allowed but he wasn't making it with Greg Olsen and a top 5 defense :wow:

Goofy Hat man trick y'all :wow:

This whole debate confuses the hell out of me

If this discourse all started because Cam said Hurts wasn't a top 10 QB right now, then shouldn't the discussion be Hurts vs. the players that were ranked above him, not Hurts vs. Cam who's been retired for years?

The eagles were 9-8,the 7th seed and didn't beat a team with a winning record :beli: Jalen had 16 tds to 9 ints but yeah Jalen would've lead the panthers to the playoffs when both the Seahawks and packers were 10-6 in the 5th and 6th seeds :childplease: there were no 7 team playoffs back in 2015

Logic and reason goes out the window when ppl have their minds made up on something.

This is a bait question. But put Cam in that Eagles team they still win a Super Bowl. Put Hurts on the Carolina team, :francis:

My honest opinion :hubie:
Hurts in the playoffs >>> Cam in the playoffs

So I don't know if Eagles still get it, specially if Cam doesn't have heart for the shove. SB last year, yes but that was also the most dominant Philly game (and 4th quarter vs wsh). People forget that they had a close fight with LA and that they were kinda average vs GB
