Just on sportscenter. 1 was rodgers.2 was big ben.3 tom brady 4. Brees.5. Cam newton. What does everyone think of this.

[Hairless Cat]

he high

[mmmbeans]

i think ben over brady and brees is crazy.

[Fiz]

he is.

Sandwiched around them curb stomping the worst team in the league and running up the score well into the fourth, Brees has looked like poo against the Bucs and Rams, throwing five picks in those two games alone.

The guy is wildly unpredictable.

[PhillyB]

he's performing like it...

number two in the league in passing yards right now. (that's with aaron rodgers missing a 300+ yarder due to a bye week, so he won't hold onto that, but still...)

[Fiz]

Newton missed a 300 yard game due to someone opening the Jumanji board.

[Delhommey]

A rookie QB just passed for 290 yards, 3 TD's and ran for close to 50... And no one's even talking about it. That's just a day at the office for him at this point. Midway through his rookie season.

He is unreal.

more goes into determining the best QBs in the league than the last few games they've played. Ben is also wildly inconsistent, playing like shiat against the only two decent pass defenses he's played this year.

it's difficult to compare them anyway... they play a different type of game... but all things being equal, if i was picking one for my team... i'd pick brees.

that's why there's been so much bitching after losses. people have projected his unparalleled success onto the rest of the team when the reality is we're decimated by injuries and still rebuilding at the other positions.

Hoge gave Newton a ton of praise on NFL Matchup yesterday as well. Hell, Newton deserves it... he looks nothing like a rookie. Now if we just had some more talent around him... :rolleyes:

[Dpantherman]

Right now? He is doing everything hes been asked to do. He can make any throw you ask him to make. Take Cam Newton off this team...we are are the Indianapolis Colts. Id say the Miami Dolphins, but they can actually play some defense.

[TruCatzFan]

Easily in the top 5. There is nothing to debate here.

I don't agree with merril's top 5, but Cam is definitely in the Top 5 and will be the undisputed ROY.

There's nothing else to say. Words are insufficient when talking about Cam Newton

[usmcpanthers]

Its amazing seeing Hoge's complete 180, hopefully the rest of the analysts and nay saysers will do the same in the future.
