    Percentage, touchdowns or yardage?

    I'll agree on percentage, but not sure about touchdowns or yardage.

    Percentage and touchdowns without question, but probably yardage as well simply because they have no running game and they'll be behind constantly. RG3 is the much more interesting comparison. For all the talk about Griffin being a world-class hurdler, I was shocked when reviewing games at how unthreatening he was as a runner.

    That also increases the chances he'll get hurt, and make stupid throws because of being rushed. Which would increase his turnovers, and cut down on yardage, percentage, and touchdowns.

    Luck is already at the proficiency level of a two or three year NFL veteran. I don't know if his peak will be better than Peyton Manning's, but he won't be overwhelmed by the mental stuff or panic under pressure as a rookie.

    2nd year Cam might not, either. I hope he does get the completion percentage a little higher (it was fine) and the INT ratio down (that wasn't so great).

    Absolutely. His percentage was 60, touchdowns were only 21 and QB rating was 84.5. All three are numbers that Luck and Newton should easily beat this year.

    One thing about Luck though, we haven't seen him play in a real game yet so I am not ready to say he will have a better rookie year than Cam did passing.

    I did find it humorous that I saw Kirk Cousins had like 3 TD's in their latest game and ESPN made absolutely no mention of it or showed any of his highlights. I know RG3 is their guy but you gotta admit, how could ESPN pass on this potential controversy.

    I thought Nick Foles looked pretty good for the Eagles too.

    Luck will probably do just fine. Records are made to be broken. He responded very well after his pick 6. He has nice outlets with both TE's and i predict alot of screens because they dont have much at WR to be perfectly honest. But remember, its still only preseason and I dont see much of a threat coming from their running game once things start for real.

    Collin doenst know dick about Qbs, never has never will. Quit undervaluing Cam. Our qb(and how long has it been since we could feel good about something a Panthers qb did?) set all kinds of rookie records and this fuck stick says Luck will be better. He didnt just barely set the records, he fucking destroyed them. Face it board, its time to pick your head up out of the sand and realize Cam is pretty fucking good. There needs to be some pride in Cam around here not just drinking Collins sky is falling Kool-Aid.

    Luck will be ok but act like youve watched the nfl for more than a few seasons and recognize our QB did something pretty special that not just anyone is going to eclipse.

    Because youre fucking clueless...if being a good hurdler made you a good runner in football alot more track stars would be RBs or QBs....dont try to analyse film of a game you dont understand.

    Again, you show how you devalue Cam; in the case as a runner. Not so easy to run like Cam is it? Oh yeah, and Tebow, who you swore up and down was a better QB than Cam, hows he looking?

    Youre a fucking joke.
