      2017 – said he was Most talented USC QB I’ve seen since Carson Palmer. I was called crazy. Wins Rose Bowl MVP.

      totally different playing styles but both abs studs

      2018 – said he was much better talent then Josh Rosen. Many disagreed

      2018 – said he will leave NYJ out of purgatory and was much better prospect then Baker Mayfield.

      2019 – He finishes year with best QB ranking in NFL last 5/6 weeks. The big apple is excited.

      2020 – HC Gase is a disaster. Jets traded sams #1 WR year before and give him 37 year old RB Frank Gore.

      I said he’s certaintly better then Zach Wilson & Jets should build around Sam with Jmar Chase or Penei Sewell. They didn’t listen.

      Rookie deal seduced another team

      Said he’s even better then the Prince who was promised Trevor Lawrence as well fwiw but at least the gap is more narrow then vs Wilson.

      2021 – said Sam would star in Carolina with CMC. CMC proceeds to miss 7/8 games that year

      2022 – Carolina brings in baker. Said Sam was better than Baker. Baker went 1-5 and got left in locker room at an away game. Sam finishes season 4-2.

      said Sam was better then Bryce Young and car should keep Sam. But rookie deal is too tempting.

      2023 – signs with San Fran. Said he’s better than Brock Purdy (who I also like. Since his FR year at ISU). Purdy proceeds to lead league in QBR and team goes to SB. Sam stays on bench even tho he was better player IMO. Impressive job by Purdy to keep him on bench.

      2024 – signs with Vikings. Said he Will shine with Justin Jefferson & Jordan Addison. Wins 14 games and has best professional season. Said they should keep Sam and trade JJM. And I think JJM will work out actually. But the rookie deal is very compelling.

      Has 5 game winning drives.

      2025 – said Sam was better then Geno Smith and was excited to see Sam with JSN, an old Kupp and Kenneth Walker but was very worried about losing Jefferson and Addison.
      most folks said it was a downgrade for Seahawks to lose Geno.

      Sam wins 17 games and they were like 12 points away from being 20-0.

      If you look at objectively, Sam’s been a very good bet for me.

      Whats 2026 gonna be?

      2026 – Let it ride. fight on Sam! B2B!! HouseMoney. He was easy to bet on.

        Bakers extension will be for 50 million a year. which apparently puts him at the middle level of starting NFL quarterbacks

        if Sam makes 30 million which I think he does. That would actually put him at the lower end. Unbelievably

         

        which means Seattle had a great team similar to Minnesota and they needed a veteran who is willing to work cheap to not screw it up  Minnesota tried that with Sam and he screwed it up  and with Seattle he managed to put together three games in a row where he didn’t screw it up and it all worked out great

         

        why do you suppose he’s not asking for a raise

        FWIW Baker lost his last 8 games last year and just lost possibly the best WRer in the NFL (future HOfer Mike Evans) in the worst division in football

        And yet they’re going to pay him $50

        million a year and Sam makes $30.

        why is that?

        You said the same thing when Baker got his 3 year, $100M contract a year or two Before Sam did. And I said, give it time.  And boy was I right. That’s going to happen again.

        So you’re saying baker sets the bar. And then Sam runs to catch up.  Then baker sets the bar higher.

        I see.  Sounds about right

        Won a Rose Bowl MVP at USC as a FR

        won a P12CG MVP as a Sophomore

        Fell to the 3rd overall pick at 20 years old

        drafted to worst franchise in NFL. Then gets worst NFL coach in history

        won 14 games in 2024 and put up insane passing numbers & led a bunch of game winning drives

        wins Super Bowl in 2025

        Makes maybe 100 jaw dropping plays that guys like Aaron Rodgers or Brett Favre or Steve young even attempt to make

        it’s been a fun ride as a fan

        for Java and Fraud and their calling him a bust, prob not so much

        Funny, you’re more triggered by a guy standing for a USC Trojan than you are for a USC guy trashing a USC Trojan. A so-called fraternity, brother, at that.

        Kind of like your anti-American stance. At least a you’re consistent idiot

        Stop being such a sensitive baby. My post was funny af, snowflake. I was cracking up typing it, lmao.

        And you badmouth Caleb all the time, a Heisman Trophy winner and a Trojan great who has his jersey hanging in a place of honor. I never badmouth Sam. I’m a fan.

        I have met Sam a few times, great guy and he was great with my boys, but Caleb is better.

      Caleb paints his nails and wrote FU to his opponents.

      when it comes to that F him. That’s just goofy & lame and probably Gay tbh.

      I criticize that. Accurately.

      I pull for him as a sooner/Trojan. 100%.

      and no he’s not better then Sam. I’m even more convinced now then when I said it after Caleb won his Heisman and he was supposed to win his 2nd one. Thats not shitting on a guy that’s having an opinion on two different players who play the same position. Dont misconstrue it please.

      You don’t stand with him

      You kneel under him.

      And we all know what happens from there.
