Nice mugshot. Im glad to see Cam bounce back from that to become the best QB in the nation. Matt Schaub was arrested for assault in college. By your logic, he has character issues and shouldnt be a pro bowl qb. Its funny dudes have to go at Cams character because the qbs they like aint good enough to stand on their own merits. Luck aint played in a bowl game yet and u so sure hes Brady. Luck must be very overhyped if he still cant win it over this guy. Luck lost to Oregon, the best team hes faced.

Cam is gonna show u how a quarterback beats a top 5 team.

Cam hasn't played in a bowl game either yet you say the lack of bowl experience is a mark against Luck....:lol:

And please show me where I said his character concerns mean he isn't going to be a good QB. I just said he has character concerns, which he does. For what it's worth I think he's going to be a good QB in the NFL, I just happen to think Luck's skill set is much more NFL friendly. He as a QB is much more ready for the next level, not that Cam wont get there. When you take a guy at #1 you have to take the guy that's closest to a sure bet and that's Andrew Luck. Not Cam Newton. Nothing against the guy he's a tremendous athlete but he's not the pro prospect that Luck is....

Everything u hear about Luck u heard about Clausen. Dude could very well be Alex Smith ,2.0 . Another cant miss qb.
not really. no one was talking much about clausen's intangibles or his leadership skills. in fact those were questioned quite a bit.

at any rate...i'd be happy with either. luck is a safer bet, imo. both can and most likely will be incredible and far better than there has been in a few years.

Your slobbing all over a guy just because hes a black version of The Golden Calf of Bristol, (who also dominated SEC competition(for a longer period of time) and won a Heisman)

every post you make has to deal with race, i get the feeling your a racist.

Just for the record you don't need to be a borderline Rhodes Scholar saint to be a great NFL QB.

Terry Bradshaw couldn't spell cats if you gave him the c, t and s. Dan Marino got in trouble for cheating on a test at Pittsburgh. Brett Favre is dumb as a box of rocks and cheats on his wife with girls half his age. Roethlisberger is a serial rapist hated by his teammates and is also not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Have you watched Cam and The Golden Calf of Bristol play? If you have I don't know how you couldn't see that Cam is the better talent he also doesn't have the likes of 3 NFL WRs (Harvin, Murphy, Cooper) and an NFL All-pro caliber TE (Hernandez) not to mention guys like Rainey who are fast as lightning in the slot on his roster. The Golden Calf of Bristol never utterly dominated the SEC like Cam has and this is just his first year. I have friends who are all hardcore Gator fans and The Golden Calf of Bristol slurpers and they even agree Cam is better then The Golden Calf of Bristol. Cam also doesn't have the horrible throwing motion. Cam is more like a faster Big Ben then anything else IMO

Yet Peyton Manning, tom brady, aaron rodgers, drew brees are all very smart qbs, and less int prone than your list.

I wouldn't mind taking Cam Newton..he looks like Lebron James in High School dominating scrub players left and right. Panthers have been burnt by running QBs for numerous years(first Vick, now Freeman)..you have to wonder if they wouldn't like to be on the other side of that for once.

I've seen some of what Andrew Luck has done but most of it is just what others are telling me what to think about him.

I get it.... a lot of people don't like Andrew Luck because he's a no nonsense, all business would rather just do his job and go back to the locker room instead of making "Cammy Cam Juice" kind of guy.....that doesn't mean he's not the better player just that Cam Newton likes the camera and Luck couldn't care less about the media and the glitz and glamor. He's a football player pure and simple.....

It's about as fair for you to compare Luck to Alex Smith and/or Clausen, as it is for people to compare Cam Newton to Jamarcus Russell.

IMHO Cam Newton will not be a great NFL QB. He is an amazing College player. I would even say the best ever. I cant think of any one player who has dominated teams like he has, single handedly. The problem is, in the NFL linebackers are a lot bigger, faster, stronger, and smarter. D-linemen are A LOT BIGGER, faster, stronger, and smarter. He has all day to throw the ball in college. His O-line is great, but it is also because people are afraid to come after him. When he has all that time and moves around so much in the backfield his receivers eventually get open. He will not be able to do that against NFL defenses. They are to fast. He will not be as elusive, either. When a big ol D-lineman gets his hand on him, he will not be able to get away, most of the time. When he runs, he runs like a power runningback. It will only take a few hits from NFL linebackers to stop that. I do think he will have a good NFL career, but I just dont think he is the best player available. I am not sure I would even put him in the top 10, but what do I know, I am no NFL scout. Just a fan of the game.

He will be fine in the pro's from an athletic/skill side. I wouldn't say there is that much of a jump in size and speed in the NFL from the SEC. The main worry for a player like him is the off the field issues, especially if he keeps hanging around his dad.

We wouldn't take Vick, we won't take Newton so don't worry about it.

Spoken like a true SEC homer. The jump in size AND speed from college to the NFL is a big difference. Even from the beloved SEC. If it wasn't as much of a difference from the SEC then all the worthwhile players in the NFL would be from the SEC.....

I am going to have to agree. I am a huge Gamecock and SEC fanboy, but there is a huge difference in NFL and SEC ball. A good example of this is when Cam scored on the 3 yard run against the Gamecocks Sat. He smashed right trough LB Antonio Allen, who weighs 205lbs. As a mater of a fact he outweigh the entire SC starting LBs by more than 25lbs. This will not be the case in the NFL.

      Dave Tepper gives Canales and Dan Morgan vote of confidence

      By frankw · Posted

      You and I both know there isn't a coach we could or can still hire that can "fix" Bryce Young. Even at mighty Alabama with one of the best modern coaches in college football history Mac Jones was still a better QB than Bryce Young. Mac Jones.... We already know how you feel about Canales on a personal level so in that regard you wanting him fired is not news. You don't have to disguise it behind this shroud of rabble about not fixing Bryce Young. To his credit he somehow had us competive against the Chiefs and the Eagles on the road with #9. But no coaching staff can overcome their starting QB turning the ball over 4 times. We definitely have developed some of our younger offensive pieces. And as far as Evero goes he has earned criticism and if he's fired so be it but in his defense many of us said in the offseason this defensive roster was a disaster waiting to happen given the resources we spent on the offense while neglecting the defense. That was Dan Morgan's plan. He swung too hard toward offense to salvage the Bryce Young trade. That's on him. We can scream about XL all we want but at least he's actually been on the field for the most part. The Brooks pick was a luxury pick at the time and now it is a Hurney level blunder. Dan Morgan has gotten a lot of early praise here when in reality he's unequivocally deserving of significant criticism. But if you say that some people get up in arms because he's a former Panther. Big whoop. He has just as much to prove this upcoming season as Canales. That's why to me in my own personal opinion I say one more season and then if it's more of the same say goodbye to both.

      It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
