Cam Newton

If you didn't watch Sunday Night Football then you missed Cam Newton leading the Patriots to within a yard of beating one of the top Super Bowl contenders this year. He played like a legit top QB in the league. While Bears fans are all excited over the "improvement" Mitch has shown and the 2-0 record against basement dwellers Cam has racked up:

71% completion percentage
552 yards passing
96.8 rating
122 yards rushing

He also didn't cost a draft pick in trade. And he's making considerably less than Foles is.

Yet another missed QB evaluation by Pace.

I believe people were concerned about his health and the string of bad performances he put together,

Good thing Nick Foles has no injury history and put together that excellent string of great performances last year....

More like more proof the QB competition was always a farce.

Ryan Pace did not sign the best quarterback available...he signed the best back up quarterback available.

It's kinda his thing.

I'm not telling you I advocate for either, only that it is the reason. Also, I believe the Bears were not guaranteeing a starting position. I don't think there was a question of who would start in NE.

Also we are at the 2 game mark. A lot of football to play.

If you think for a second Cam Newton would be playing the same with Nagy as he is with Belichick, you're getting the below look from me.... Grandmama Newton made the smart choice and he will get paid next year.

Agreed on that. Knowing the Bears though Cam will lead the Patriots deep into the playoffs.

Then that's another damning comment on Pace.

And 10-15 other GM's.

Why is this always an excuse? I don't want a GM that makes the same mistakes all the other losers do.

So he picks the Bear instead of NE?

I’m ok without him. He has played pretty damn good though, but give a few more losses and a few more hits and then I ll check back and let you know

Had Pace called Newton there wouldn’t be a question of who SHOULD be starting either. Typical bullshit from Ryan Pace.

Not sure was ever contacted by the Bears

I sure as hell would.

Imagine having to be the guy to take over after two decades of Tom Brady rather than the guy taking over after three years of Mitchell Trubisky.

Literally a job for Superman.

Panthers offered him to the Bears in a trade before he was even on the market.. instead Pace gave up a pick for Foles.

To agree with you, I would say that New England has managed to do pretty good with their QB picks. Shit for Wide Outs, but pretty good on QB's.

Yes, Nagy isn't as good as the perennial SB contender for 2 decades.

 

[BaBaBlacksheep]

NE paid him league minimum with up to 7 mil in incentives. (That may be slightly off but that's what I remember)

Bears could have offered a lot more.

What did they want for him?
