No offense to the "Great One" Brett Favre, but no one can mentor Cam Newton better than the guy whose already mentoring him... Warren Moon. Warren Moon's skillset is more similiar than Cam's and he'll be able to provide a certain amount of experience and perspective historically that Cam will be able to learn from. Brett Favre was indeed great... but that doesnt mean that you're a good teacher. Warren Moon has done the same thing for other young QB's and he seems to genuinely care enough about Cam Newton to stick up for him publically.

I think Favre would be a great resource for Cam, but here's the part I really liked:

The encouraging news for Panthers fans anxious to see Newton is that the new face of their franchise is already immersed in learning the team's playbook with the help of former NFL QB and current IMG mentor Ken Dorsey, who played for Panthers offensive coordinator Rob Chudzinski at the University of Miami from 2000-2003.

So he's working with someone that knows Chud's offense... that's exactly what he needs to be doing right now.

It worked for Rodgers.

Rodgers wouldve been a good QB with or without Brett Favre. He's won a superbowl much earlier than Brett did. Sitting and watching means that you can also learn what NOT to do.

But even if we wanna attribute all of Rodgers succes to Brett Favre... that doesnt mean that Brett Favre could mentor Cam Newton. Its two different situation, with two totally different types of Quaterbacks.

anyone actually bothering to read the article and not talk out of their anus would see that favre has talked about coming back as a coach...not a player. thats what the discussion is about.

come on. Whenever anyone hears the name "Favre", they're going to think he wants to come out of retirement.

You could tell me he's buying a stake in an NFL team this coming year and I'd wonder if it wasn't a way for him to try to get back on the field. ;)

Rodgers wouldve been a good QB with or without Brett Favre. He's won a superbowl much earlier than Brett did. Sitting and watching means that you can also learn what NOT to do.

we really have no idea. The ability for Rodgers to sit on the bench and learn for a bit helped him I personally think, but who knows. There are some that would argue that Rodgers would have looked TERRIBLE if he had been forced to play his rookie year.

Either way, I don't think Favre was mentoring Rodgers at all in GB. But if he WANTED to mentor Cam, I see no reason why he couldn't... great quarterback... though I do hope he doesn't pick up some of his bad habits of throwing into coverage constantly. ;)

Kennifer was also on the Browns while Chud was the OC, so he's also seen it at a pro level.

      DJ's latest top 50

      Cutting edge analysis below https://www.nfl.com/news/daniel-jeremiah-s-top-50-2025-nfl-draft-prospect-rankings-4-0 You gotta remember, Daniel Jeremiah talks to the scouts and GMs..... Notable highlights: #1 Abdul Carter (Edge) #2 Travis Hunter (WR/CB) #3 Ashton Jeanty (RB) #4 Mason Graham (DT) #5:  Jalon Walker (LB) #6 Tyler Warren (TE) #7  Coltson Loveland (TE) #15 Nick Emannwori (S) #22 Mykel Williams (Edge) #32 Mason Taylor (TE--3 TEs in round 1????) WR rankings (oh my!!  This is going to piss some folks off--I don't think a slot WR--Egbuka--should be in the middle of round 1, personally) #16 Matthew Golden (told ya this a month ago!!--you mocked me, some scoffed) #17  Emeka Egbuka (the sleeper we have not talked about enough!) #18  Tetairoa McMillan (according to the NFL Network Path to the Draft Crew-Ross, Brooks, Charles-the comments may have hurt his stock among GMs--I do think it might be a bit overblown, but hey, he raised the red flag--nobody else.  I am sure he will explain his meaning to satisfy GMs) #33 Luther Burden III (he has dropped quite a bit) Noteable Edges NOT in top 50, which means they could be there in the second:  Jack Sawyer, Princely. and my super sleeper pick who could be there in round 3--Josaiah Stewart, Michigan. MHS PREDICTIONS: It sure looks like #5 Jalon Walker Edge will be the pick---Mykel Williams dropped to #22. Most of the players we draft on days 1 and 2 will have a first name that starts with the letter J.

      I feel like all the guys i think they're going to take will be gone. Graham and walker plus Carter who has no chance. If that's the case I really hope someone wants to jump the saints and we can trade back. I would want Green if he didn't have the accusations

      I think with walker you have a pretty stable and decent floor.   With some of the others the floor is lower but yeah the ceiling is the roof.   We just cant risk that as a franchise at this point
