What Haters Don't Understand about Cam Newton

So all of us real fans here understand how great of player Cam is and is continuing to be. He has upped his game to new levels that we had previously seen only flashes of. 

But one thing that grinds my gears is the continued narrative that Cam is not a cerebral QB. I think it's a load of BS and if Cam wasn't as athletic as he is he would still be a great QB. Probably Flacco-esque.

He makes the right reads, audibles and consistently looks off defenders. Opposing fans are quick to judge #1 because of all of his rushing stats and short yardage plays. 

But here's what these morons don't understand. The objective is to win the game. Not pass the ball to increase his 3rd down passer rating and impress fat ass madden couch quarterbacks around the nation.

When you are 6'5, 240lbs and as fast as Cam is. Sometimes the most effective and efficient  play is to tuck it and run. It's the smart play that wins the game. This why Cam is unique and hard to defend. Because he can do this and be a great passing QB on top of that.

Anyway I needed to rant this out because it's been pissing me off. Keep Pounding, love y'all.

I don't know where you have been hearing that he isn't a cerebral QB. This narrative you speak of is coming from couch coaches in the comments section of ESPN and NFL.com. That certainly isn't the consensus among analysts and former players this year. 

In a nutshell, this thread belongs in 2014.

He's just now getting respect. But yeah I'm basically talking about the dumbass fans around the league that dont know Cam. Look no further than the "What blank fans are saying" threads. They all say the same crap each week.  Then their team gets owned.  

I'm just wondering how much longer the excuses will hold up.

      Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"

      I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
