Whats the difference?
one of them could actually win the game and it's not Stidham

Whats the difference?
That’s not really a fair assessment. He has played one time in a competitive game and it pretty much immediately became non competitive when Edelman let a perfectly thrown ball bounce off his hands and into a pick 6.I knew that but didn’t think or know if it was official. In any event, it’s going to be Cam getting the start. Stidham has crapped his pants whenever he’s seen the field.
Coincidentally, was also the last time the Patriots beat the Chargers on an even year when both teams are below .500 and playing after Thanksgiving. The Patriots won that game 7-3, good omen?I believe that was coined in 1477 by Ferdinand II.
So why isn’t he playing?That’s not really a fair assessment. He has played one time in a competitive game and it pretty much immediately became non competitive when Edelman let a perfectly thrown ball bounce off his hands and into a pick 6.
None of that proves stidham is good, it’s just that people are taking a minuscule and tainted sample size and defining the player with it. It’s just too early for that.
Let him earn sucking.
Experience of Cam and leadership. I think that is running out though because of his poor play and Stid will get a chance soon.So why isn’t he playing?
Bill has seen more of a sample size than we have and he's seen fit to keep him on the bench in favor of the guy with 4 TD and 9 INTs.That’s not really a fair assessment.

Yea I don't even know where to start with this flawed thinking but I'll just say I disagreeI bet he can. We got a taste of it in the KC game.
why was Meyers not playing? instead we've been pleased to watch Harry and Sanu drop passes, ask McD and BBSo why isn’t he playing?
Cam sucks though. He’s sucked for a while. That they stick with him means they’re either tanking or they’re even less confident in Stid than they are of Cam. It’s most likely the latter since, if they were tanking, they’re doing a terrible job of it.Experience of Cam and leadership.

He’s playing now. Best guess is because they were trying to develop Harry and trying to justify taking him as a first rounder. Meyers has actually developed and contributed, though, so he’s been getting a higher percentage of the snaps.why was Meyers not playing? instead we've been pleased to watch Harry and Sanu drop passes, ask McD and BB
There are degrees of sucking. LOL. I don't think they are tanking either.Cam sucks though. He’s sucked for a while.

Breathing puts you in the discussion to start over newton.Anybody picking Stidham needs their brain examined. What has he done to be worthy of starting over Cam?
Sure that’s a consideration but there are a lot of other things that go into. Any coach has difficulty knowing when a player is ready. That’s why you see so many players do really well when they get their chance and others not.Bill has seen more of a sample size than we have and he's seen fit to keep him on the bench in favor of the guy with 4 TD and 9 INTs.
Been terrified of this for 6 years. Any day now my fears will prove founded.I am convinced folks are scared of Cam doing well.
Why is that?I am convinced folks are scared of Cam doing well.
This is perfect proof. BB is old school, he wants guys to struggle and pay their dues. Meyers showed ability last year in preseason, but Brady hardly paid attention. BB and/or JMD sat him as they forced the ball to useless Harry the first quarter season. So don't tell me Stid hasn't played yet because he's trash or much worse than Cam. We have eyes too. He flashed some really good plays @KC. Sure, he had 2 picks - a stupid tip by Jules, and a long shot in the final minutes down 16 (because of Hoyer's crap plays). Cam did the same thing against AZ while being the full-time starter! Come on. You can't judge Stid until he's played 4 consecutive games with first team reps.why was Meyers not playing? instead we've been pleased to watch Harry and Sanu drop passes, ask McD and BB
Why is that?
ludicrous! I was all aboard the Cam-Train after SEA. I'm not scared of him doing well - I've just been waiting all season to see it again!!I am convinced folks are scared of Cam doing well.
