Cam Newton The Lebron James of the NFL

[LinvilleGorge]

Based purely on physical traits, it's easy to picture Cam playing as a jumbo WR, TE, 4-3 weak side DE, or 3-4 rush OLB.

​There are threads on this very forum that site sources where Cam's audible "permission" is very limited.  All you have to do is watch game film of Rogers, PM, Brady and you'll see a major difference.  They can dissect the defense at the line and adjust accordingly at the line.  Either Cam can't do it (as well) or isn't allowed to do it as much.  I can be pro-Cam and still be critical without being a troll.

​Are you referring to comments by Mike Shula? He estimated the percentage in which Newton has the freedom to audible. Where did he talk about Newton's football IQ?

Rodgers, Manning, and Brady have a combined 42 years of dissecting NFL defenses, lol.

​If he's the most physically talented QB in the league, but yet he falls short where it matters (W-L), then yes.  It's no secret that Cam's football IQ is ho-hum at best.

​holy fuging poo this is stupid

I think this would have been a very accurate comparison in 2013 with the 12-4 season, lebrons main attribute is that he gets his team involved but knows how to dominate and the right time you could say the same for cam that year

[B.BERSIN]

You are very wrong man, how can Cam be compared with LBJ?

Cam is football God!

[Sean Payton's Vicodin]

no, no, he is the MICHAEL JORDAN of the NFL and will CHANGE FOOTBALL FOREVER

[JawnyBlaze]

Cam's physical attributes AND athleticism are probably unmatched by any other QB in the league.  But judging by his W-L record, what's between the ears is what he's lacking.  However, at least there has been improvement with Cam on his mental side, but it's definitely his biggest hang-up.

​Players in the NFL aren't judged by their W-L record.  Coaches are.

[SgtJoo]

Is he going to drag the Panthers to the Super Bowl five times?

[Jangler]

Maybe Cam is the William Orrell of the NFL. 

[Kevin Greene]

Cam is Lebron swag Times ten.

Drew Brees the Matthew Dellavedova of the NFL.

[jasonluckydog]

Thomas Davis the Walt Frazier of the NFL.

[jasonluckydog]

I could do this all day long

[t96]

Thomas Davis the Walt Frazier of the NFL.

​Better comparison would be Joe Dumars. Frazier was all flash, TD just plays the game--like Dumars. And all class off the field.
