Gil Brandt dropping truth bombs

If Cam Newton were dropped onto the Packers' roster, I think he could be almost as successful as Aaron Rodgers. http://t.co/Gewdmdq1kS

Preach.

[Murph]

And we will see that kind of success this upcoming season

"if I had to predict who will be considered the Rodgers and Brady of the NFL three years from now, I'd pick Newton and Luck"

I wish we can drop off Shula in GB and not pick him up

​

I'm hoping for better.  I'm really really keeping my fingers crossed.

But if there's a guy who can look at Cam, KB, Funch, Ginn, and Thor and think "best strategy? run over tackle, run over guard, third and long pass, punt!" its Mike Shula.

Being able to run the ball is a fantastic luxury.  Just ask the Seahawks.

But its a passing league.  The rules are SET UP to pass the ball.  Use those rules to your damn advantage!

This kid has been maligned and criticized, but I think most of his perceived problems -- throws too hard, lacks accuracy -- are more in the public's imagination than anything. 

The good feels abound in that article. Even Casserly toned down his "red flags". But Brandt is right. I pay close attention to Rodgers, he's my 2nd favorite QB, & I see the similarities. Cam needs time. They forget how he started his rookie year on lockout. No other first pick had to do what he did to start his career.

So pretty much system means just as much as QB talent

 

So what Gil is saying is, what we have in place now we're not going further

People post the dumbest comments. "Immature" this, "thug" that...

I'll beat the dead horse again.  Until the albatross known as Shula is removed, we will not know the true potential of Cam as a NFL QB.

Unfortunately ... I believe you. Given the right OC, they would leverage Cam's strengths and not rely on them as a last resort.

The  Godfather knows his football.

i bet all the cam haters hate that lol

Brandt invented the modern draft, of course the man knows football.
