Is Cam Newton Really A Franchise QB

I am just looking at some old games ( 2012 and 2013). Looking at him, his is still making and struggling with the same issues. I know I shouldn't, but I always compare every QB to Tom Brady and Peyton Manning, they hardly get sacked. This is not because their O-lines are that great, but because they feel when pressure is near. Cam is still getting sacked when sometimes he can avoid. It is still frustrating to see him as a thrower. He is an extremely inconsistent and streaky. His mechanics are poor with him throwing off his back foot and unbalanced causing the ball to sail high. I guess is this why they drafted the 6'5'' Kelvin B. I tend to wonder if the front office is sold on him as the future , because Im not. This has to be his make or break year. Love Cam as a person, the best thing that could happen to the Charlotte area, but not my choice for the future. I really like Blake Bortles , I see the Jags going somewhere with him. Thanks for your views and replies.

Not yet. That's my opinion. He has made improvements year to year but has yet to be a top 10 QB in his passing abilities. Take away his running ability and his is above average. This is just my opinion but I just don't see him having the same passing ability as Brady Brees, Maning, Rodgers, Big Ben, Rivers, Wilson, Romo, Stafford or Ryan. Combine his running ability with his passing ability and he arguably could be a top 10 QB. I think Cam could be a great QB in the future but right now he is probably in the top 15.

    • I think the highlighted portion of your post is a reasonable expectation. The above stat would average out to just over 1 TD pass per game and twice as many TD's as INT's. This team is built to run the football, so I'm not expecting Bryce to light up the stat sheet each week. If can complete 60% of his passes, make 2-3 big time passing plays a week, reach the 3,400-3,500 yard mark,  and finish the season with your stat line,  then we should be competitive week in and week out.
    • Because they signed him to an appropriate contract. His deal is in the range of a #3 TE who is probably expected to make the roster but if he doesn't, oh well. It's not gonna hurt us much at all to cut bait on him. That's who Ian Thomas is as an NFL player. A guy who should be bouncing around the league trying to make it as a bottom of the roster type of player. Not a guy that you sign to a mid-level starter type of contract like the Panthers did.
    • is it an excuse that the ice melted because it sat on the counter?   If we dont improve on the D (and things are looking up there) then it wont matter.  We will still be losing more games than we are winning and Bryce isnt enough to lift the team above that
