Cam Newton: One Of Nfl.com's Top 10 Players Under 25 Years Old

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

QB Cam Newton, Carolina Panthers (Age: 23)

Do you remember when everyone was concerned about Cam Newton's play calls being too simple at Auburn? I'm pretty sure that didn't end up being much of a problem. All he did in his rookie season was throw for more than 4,000 yards and combine for 35 TDs. He proved that he was capable of staying in the pocket and making plays with his arm. He throws a beautiful deep ball and helped revitalize the career of Steve Smith. He's a very dangerous runner when he decides to leave the pocket, and he's built to take the extra pounding that results from it. He is capable of posting video game-like numbers. I wouldn't be shocked if he put together 30 passing TDs and 20 rushing TDs in the same season. How crazy would that be?

Interesting that three of the guys mentioned are Bengals. The 49ers, Steelers, and Giants have two guys a piece mentioned.

stupid article

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

well thanks lol

[4Corners]

Mendenhall, Dalton, Jones, Peterson

LOL

I had forgotten that Stafford is so young. Hopefully he can stay healthy. He is one of the few guys in the league with an arm at least as strong as Cam's.

Mendenhall, Dalton, Jones, Peterson

LOL

Mendenhall is good when healthy. No need to laugh there.

The other three you mentioned are also good, just young, as the title suggests.

Article would have been much more interesting if it was the top 10 players over 30yrs old.

False.

Mendenhall is going to miss a good chunk of this season and I heard (FWIW) his Steeler days are done.

Peterson is only good as a KR/PR

Dalton is whatever.

Julio Jones only has huge games against the Panthers.

Mendenhall was good then lol the rest of the guys are just young dudes. Besides neither of them made the list... they got honorable mention lol.

[4Corners]

Your key word is Mendenhall "WAS" good.

I could probably make a better list (yes some of the same guys would be on mine) but I just don't feel like doing it.
