Then he was hurt this year, for the first time. Will that be a pattern? And/or was his steady improvement a mirage and he's actually not as good as he was in 2014? I personally think not, and judge him highly, but it's obviously not an open and shut case.

Re: Sports: NFL

I guess it depends on how hurt he was in the games he played last season and whether he'll recover from those injuries going forward, because he wasn't the best quarterback on his team in most of the games he played last season, let alone an elite QB in the league. Suffice to say, I think he got crowned too soon, partially due to playing in such a soft division and being a #1 overall pick who was drafted to much fanfare and got to the playoffs early in his career.

I think he's good but maybe not quite the cut above most of the pack that people thought. That's Cam's crown now.

Cam Newton right now might be the biggest single difference-maker I have ever seen on a football team.

Also, I think his antics are great for the game.

Re: Sports: NFL

I've heard Cam referred to recently, many times and without irony, as the most polarizing figure in the league. This would make sense if the entire country was the town from the movie "Footloose", I guess. But in the world I live in, it seems insane.

Re: Sports: NFL

I'd think Johnny Manziel would have that honor. Or the crazy defensive player who threw his gf on a pile of guns that the Cowboys finally cut.

Well you live in the world where a men's rights group wants to make rape legal. There was supposed to be simultaneous meetings in like 32 cities.

So yeah, I can see Cam being polarizing. You have the same people that don't mind Rodgers' Discount Double Check, but hate Cam's celebration.

Greg Hardy. As far as I can tell, the most despicable man in the NFL.

Re: Sports: NFL

I guess this is the issue with the term "polarizing". Is Greg Hardy polarizing? I don't really think so; you've got the people who think he's a terrible person, and the people who choose to ignore that he's a terrible person.

Honestly, I think Brady (cheater or not cheater?) might be the most legitimately polarizing figure in the NFL. Cam is up there, and I'll just say again that that is crazy. (I'd say more, but this is an NFL thread, not a politics thread.)

I'll be rooting for the Broncos, of course, but I do like this Panthers team. I always have a soft spot for teams that play differently than everybody else, particularly in the copycat NFL.

Re: Sports: NFL

I agree that Cam and Rodgers celebrations are good for the game. I think the league has tried to kill individuality, but thankfully the players won't let that happen.
Greg Hardy is a great example of people who didn't deserve a second chance but got one, when Ray Rice didn't.
Personally, I know that the Colts management strategy has been to put as little around a great QB as possible. They did it with Manning and they're doing it again with Luck.
Brady IS a cheater, that's documented, but what that comes down to is if cheating is part of life or you don't support it. Personally, I can't stand that the Hatriots and Bill Belicheat have gotten away with it.
As far as Manziel goes, for some reason he and Tim Tebow garner more press than the starting QB on their team (when actually on a roster), Johnny is talented but he needs to grow up. If he hasn't already, he's gonna party himself right out of the NFL.

I wasn't saying Hardy is polarizing. I was identifying the guy Bats was referring to:

There are people who will defend guys like Hardy on the principle that what happens outside the lines literally does not matter. I'm the opposite; I think it matters more. So don't ask me to defend that position.

Brady is polarizing; probably the most polarizing guy in the league, in that everyone knows who he is and some people, even non-Patriots fans, think he's terrific. Others think he's a cheater, or plays dirty, or is a whiner, and (1) those people are correct, and (2) they don't like him. Despite his glossy resume.

I don't think Manziel is polarizing; I don't know anybody who sees him as anything other than the Ryan Leaf copycat that he is. As you and the other Broncos fans know, dok, Tim Tebow was polarizing. He's gone now, though. In the Chargers community, I imagine Philip Rivers is polarizing. Loads of talent, but (IIRC) reported to be kind of a jerk, and hasn't ever been more than a regular-season success story.
