Strange Question!...
If Cam never plays again he may struggle to get into the HoF.
If Cam plays another 5 succesful seasons he will be a HoFer.
But who will talk about Mahomes, Watson, Jackson or Prescott if they get hurt this season and never play again? Maybe nobody!
Only Russell Wilson could stop playing now and will be remembered forever. Maybe Cam too!

I'd actually rate Newton above McNabb.

WCO QBs are just about always overrated, especially the one in Andy Reid's system.

What kind of odds are you putting on Cam going to the Chicago Bears?

Apparently there's some sort of rhetoric out there that the Bears and Cam are simpatico....

....your thoughts?

Yes.  

If we're talking about them at the same points in their careers, yes and no.

Ability wise? Yeah. But for his first two seasons Newton had a bad habit of starting off games extremely hot but fading as the game went on.

I always attributed that to the adjustment to the pro game, but you could make an argument that our coaching staff's poor halftime adjustments played an equal role.

(kinda doubt anybody'd argue Jackson is benefiting from better coaching than Newton had)

As to Jackson, good as he may be, he still isn't fully what he's gonna be yet. Hard to judge what you don't yet know.

It is interesting that the Ravens are more willing to play to Lamar’s strengths than the Panthers ever were.  Seems to be the trend in the NFL now...the college style offenses.  A young Cam would have flourished in todays game.  Especially with the added protection for quarterbacks.  It is also interesting that they both have been dominant without a great supporting cast.  Mediocre receivers, decent running game and good defense behind them.

      I never thought a second look was even necessary. I was begging the football gods not to have us trade up to the 1st pick. And damn once we did it was a thoroughbred vs a little pony.    If you have a perceived generational player in the pool and you have the 1st pick, you just don’t trade it. In the first place. But all this Bryce drama - which (understandably) takes over almost any thread, just like this one - would never have happened if the team was not sold to Tepper.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      I agree. I understand why he did though. And surely he had his parents in his ear who have always gone out of their way to make sure he always had the best and the least amount of adversity around him to that point in his life advising him to do so. Where I take the most issue with it is when people who just want to be sycophants start listing off other QB's who didn't throw at the combine and you don't even make it through half the names before your eyes roll right into the back of your head realizing every single of those QB's who didn't throw already clearly showcased the necessary prerequisite physical talents needed for the position.
