I think Sean went after Teddy so anxiously precisely because Teddy plays smart and is precise. Brees-like, although we'd agree he's no Brees. Cam is not a 'smart' QB, which is not an indictment on the man's intelligence but how he plays the game. With Sean's offense being one of precision, Cam is clearly not the man for the job here.

Do you think he would want Matthew Stafford, Kirk Cousins, or Jimmy Garoppolo?

No but if i recall... he had affection for Romo didn't he?

There is no accounting for taste.

Personally, I never saw Romo as the problem in Dallas.

Me either, like Rivers he was grossly underrated.

The list of what is not the problem in Dallas is much longer than the list of what is that just has Jerry's name on it. Romo was never the problem in Dallas, hes now a ****ing problem on my TV... his voice is like a herd of cats on a chalk board and he doesn't know that TV is not radio and shutting his cock holster once in a while would be appreciated.

I think Romo's THE best analyst on TV. I get the voice thing, but his commentary is right on, and 9 out of 10 times he predicts the play before they even run it. He's a pretty smart guy.

I believe if he had Romo then Romo would have a ring. I feel the same way about Stafford. Cousins? Maybe not. Garoppolo? Not sure. But I believe Sean Payton would get the most out of Cam Newton. He’s a Heisman winning, Rookie of the Year awarded, former league MVP who’s been to a Super Bowl and has had a successful career with a defensive minded coach.

Totally agree on the skill sets and its not his talent that holds Cam back. Cam is a slave to his emotions and while there are times that being that works to his advantage Sean Payton is a lot like Yoda and isnt willing to work with just anyone.

Sean has a type and its not Cam Newton.. None of these guys are self serving show boats that want spotlight.
Drew Brees
Teddy Bridgewater
Taysom Hill
Luke McCown
Marc Brunell

Sean is the same way with receivers.. Jimmy was a spectacle after a TD with the dunk but put a mic in front of him and he is subdued and articulate. Colston, Thomas, Kamara, Ingram... none are flamboyant publicly.

Here is one I heard come out of Cam's mouth: "You look good, you play good; you play good, they pay good" I've so much to say about that statement lol

You may not realize it but Cam is often injured... Since 2016 he has only had one 16 game season. I will give him this though, when he is healthy the Panthers record is a whole lot better than if he doesn't start 16...
