Is Cam Newton Really A Franchise QB

[run1stdownrun2nddown]

As much as I love Cam I have noticed he struggles with making his hot reads. Not sure how it compares to some of the other young QB's tho..

Tomy Jone!!!!

Hes thrown for over 10, 000 yards and has 64 passing tds in 3 seasons....that's best of all time kids wake up. Cam can be a.HOF qb if he keeps this up sure he's not perfect but there isn't another young qb id rather have including luck

[Raskle]

Damn these kids today... saying they're comparing Cam to the greatest QBs of all time and NOT including big Joe Montana....

Did i pass out and miss a fuging comet last nite or something?! Cam is pound for pound the MVP to his team in the league, even more so than P. Manning.

Imagine if Gabbert had put up the exact same numbers, they'd be saying he was better than Andrew Luck.

I am just looking at some old games ( 2012 and 2013). Looking at him, his is still making and struggling with the same issues. I know I shouldn't, but I always compare every QB to Tom Brady and Peyton Manning, they hardly get sacked. This is not because their O-lines are that great, but because they feel when pressure is near. Cam is still getting sacked when sometimes he can avoid. It is still frustrating to see him as a thrower. He is an extremely inconsistent and streaky. His mechanics are poor with him throwing off his back foot and unbalanced causing the ball to sail high. I guess is this why they drafted the 6'5'' Kelvin B. I tend to wonder if the front office is sold on him as the future , because Im not. This has to be his make or break year. Love Cam as a person, the best thing that could happen to the Charlotte area, but not my choice for the future. I really like Blake Bortles , I see the Jags going somewhere with him. Thanks for your views and replies.

 

Which Brady and Peyton are u watching?

 

Did u catch the SB when the a 2nd year QB like Russel and his team spanked the Peyton and the Broncos. If it wasn't for the god of the NFL, Mr Manning himself, his highlight reel would have been serious comic relief. The difference between them and Cam is perception.

 

Not even Johnny Manzeil is as scrutinize as Cam. SMH

I am sure they must be asking Joe Who?!

 

Now there is a QB who knew how to school other teams. But even he didn't do it by himself. He had on his side, and to this day, one of , if not the world's best, Receiver in Jerry Rice.

How is it that, after all the time and discussion that's gone into this topic on here, people still don't understand that there are different styles of quarterback?

Newton isn't a precision passer like Manning, Brady or Breed, so comparisons to them are empty.

Newton is a gunslinger, a 'scramble and gamble' QB whose passes are sometimes perfect and occasionally out there.

As such, he compares properly to guys like Favre, Elway and Bradshaw.

Are those guys franchise QBs?

 

100% agreed. i would even add steve young (esp. early on) and ken stabler.

 

gunslinger = risk-taker/big-play maker

The Coryell offense is a big play offense.

Having a big play quarterback running it makes perfect sense.

This is sometimes why I think to myself that Cam would have a better fanbase elsewhere instead of charlotte. Maybe the Oakland Raiders where they yearn for success so much that they would love and appreciate Cam and not take him for granted like the OP and many panther fans do.

comments like this piss me off.

 

we have a few....VERY FEW (esp. when compared to the little-mindedness that existed before we saw what cam can do in year 1) "fans" that don't appreciate what cam brings and can do and "cam would have been better off with a fan base that appreciates him more"

 

get that poo out of here.

 

the dude absolutely owns this team and fan base, regardless of a handful of pinheaded faux-fans with big mouths.
