    I disagree. When you're talking about players that have been in the league for less than three years, you have no choice but to talk about what they did during college. Chances are that their professional teams are awful and they're still learning the pro game. I don't see why you can't compare what two players did during college.

    By your standards, Andrew Luck's ability to call plays from his entire team's playbook and make a pre-snap adjustment to throw on a recently injured player's replacement for a TD means nothing.

    Have you also seen the Rams offensive line's inability to control their gaps even when they're sending double teams at their opponent's defensive line or their receiver's pension for dropping passes? You're giving Bradford no credit for what he's done well and completely ignoring what Newton has done wrong for his team to have a 2-5 record.

    I changed that. What I meant was that Newton hasn't faced a legitimate defense yet in his career. It doesn't make any sense to proclaim a rookie a better playmaker than one of the best playmakers at the QB position of all time.

    Newton's got one outstanding receiver, an excellent receiving tight end, and two above average running backs.

    Bradford's got Steven Jackson half the time, and that's pretty much it. The Rams really are God awful.

    YES!!! FINALLY a day without a husband storming around and sulking and threatening to jump off the roof of the house!

    ....Unfortunately the words "YES!! PLAYOFFS HERE WE COME" just came out of his mouth... but I think he was kidding. Please let him be kidding.

    Steve Smith while a good receiver is not a beneficial one for a young quarterback. Dude runs any thing he wants. Breaks off his routes, pretty much does whatever he wants. I wouldn't call Shockey or Olsen excellent. They are good, not great. But yeah, the Rams outside of now getting Lloyd have had jack shit.

    Steve Smith is a beast. It's good for Newton's confidence to have such a big time playmaker.

    I don't think I've ever seen anything quite as pathetic in sports as the Dolphins fan celebrating his own team's defeat on the site of his supposed rivals. Truly, truly craven.

    You should probably stop watching sport forever. I don't think you'll ever understand it.

    When healthy, the Panthers actually have one of the better offensive lines in the league. Jeff Otah, Jordan Gross, and Ryan Kalil are all very solid players. Unfortunately, Otah can never stay healthy. Also, I think you're underestimating the lack of quality secondaries that Newton has had to face this season.
