horrible hoyer should be 3rd franklyIt’s not Stidham or Newton. Stidham is the third string QB. It would Newton or Hoyer.

You're thinking of it the wrong way. It's not about "what he's done to prove his worth" but what Cam has not done to prove his. If this was Brian Hoyer with these stat lines people would be screaming for Stidham but somehow we've convinced ourselves that 2013 Cam Newton is coming out of that tunnel and Stidham is destined to be Curtis Painter when we haven't seen even a full game out of himAnybody picking Stidham needs their brain examined. What has he done to be worthy of starting over Cam?
Cam hasn’t been amazing, but fixing Cam might be our best bet to finding a QB. Stidham has pissed his pants every time he’s been put out there. I’d rather continue to work with Cam and see what he has than waste more time on Stidham.You're thinking of it the wrong way.

We've seen what Cam has. For 10 games. He has nothing. Even worse, he has less than nothing because he can't even stop turning the damn ball over. A quarter against the best team on the road says everything you need to know about Stidham but after 10 games of below average play from Cam you need to "see what he has" still?

Cam is the leader of the team and they’re still in the playoff hunt.
We’ve seen a full game’s worth of Stidham. He’s 13/27, 138 yards, 1 TD, 4 INTs. 36.3 rating. It’s very likely he sucks more than Cam. I think his last season at Auburn in 2018 ruined him. He reminds me of Minshew (who, given where I live, I’ve seen too much of) in the pocket - eyes drop too often at the rush, footwork gets spotty... almost as if he’s in a panic. This leads to turnovers. We’ve played winning football in games where we haven’t turned over the ball. Short of injury, I’m not sure why Bill would hand over the offense to a guy who has done just that in each appearance he’s made at this level.We've seen what Cam has. For 10 games. He has nothing.

I don't think piecing together one or two quarters from however many games into "one full game" is any more fair than projecting Tom Brady's worst 16 games into one season and ending up with like 3 TDs and 35 picks. He's a year 2 QB with hardly any experience and hasn't gotten what a typical trusted starter would get as far as prep. And that's not really speculation nor is it a knock on the team it's just reality.We’ve seen a full game’s worth of Stidham. He’s 13/27, 138 yards, 1 TD, 4 INTs. 36.3 rating.

Im scared of Cam might do, but thats not one of them.I am convinced folks are scared of Cam doing well
I read this same post from a whole bunch of members here last season..except they were talking about Damien HarrisIf stidham was even remotely good he'd be starting by now. He sucks. It's time to accept that.
That’s totally backward. Newton is a veteran whose skills are deteriorating.Cam hasn’t been amazing, but fixing Cam might be our best bet to finding a QB. Stidham has pissed his pants every time he’s been put out there. I’d rather continue to work with Cam and see what he has than waste more time on Stidham.

Cam. His teammates believe in him and love him. No one has faith in Stidham. If we lose another game or two fine give him a go.Newton is banged up with an abdominal strain. He has not been playing well.... 26.2 QB rating last week, poor decision making, bad throwing mechanics, no confidence....and he is going up against a cover 3 D this weekend which he has struggled with his entire career. I say Start Stidham!!! Give the guy a chance!!!!
Not really. When the Giants played the Pats in the last regular season game of the year they were 10-5 and were locked in to the 5th seed in the NFC. To Tom Coughlin's credit, instead of resting players the Giants went after the Pats undefeated season, which probably contributed to their win in the SB. They ended up 14-6 counting the playoffs.I'm sure there were posts just like this on the Giants board when they went 9-7 and beat you guys in the superbowl. Just saying.
If those folks are out there they're from other teams. You can bet your bippy that no team wants any part of the Pats in the playoffs.I am convinced folks are scared of Cam doing well.

Apparently you two weren't aware?? Cam was actually on the up .... Don't be narrative pushers.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.
