Asking his wife not to Tom Brady him is hilarious.

Well deserved. He's an all time great Saints player and has a good shot at being a HOF'er.

I completely understand the loyalty to Cam, I just don't know much about how his contract is structured to know if this is a good or bad move for the Saints. On the surface this would appear to be a bad move, as you don't generally give big money extensions to 34 year old players. If it reduces the cap numbers and there is not a big hit at the end, then I say good move.

I was having a discussion about Jordan with my nephew earlier this year. He grew up in Cali so he is a Raiders fan. Long story short, he was/is convinced that JJ Watt was a much superior player than Jordan. Shows what hype and media coverage will do for a player.

Facts.

I'm really hoping Cam can get 10+ sacks in 2023, then 10 more next season.

IMO that would punch his ticket to Canton.

I really like both players and would argue that JJ Watt's best seasons were better than Jordan's. But Jordan has been great on a longer and more consistent scale and that counts for a darn lot to. Availability is key.

Pretty much how I summed it up Crusader. I wasnt saying Cam was better, but the difference is NOT as great as perceived. They both came in in 2011. Even if Cam retired today his stats match up very well against Watt. Yet most viewers would put Watt in the HOF without question. Meanwhile Cam needs another 20 sacks or so to get in the HOF in most people's opinion.

Or maybe he posted classy praise of Jordan's extension.

Naw.

If JJ Watt is a HOF'er today so is Jordan without playing another game. Watt was dynamic, but spent a third of his career injured. He only played 16 game eight times. Jordan has played 16 games all 12 years of his career. Watt has 114.5 career sacks. Jordan has 115.5. Watt was a Pro Bowl selection five times. Jordan has been selected eight times, including the last six years straight.

Just based upon their careers to date both appear to be slam dunk HOF'ers.
