Hate to say it but Lamar Jackson is better than Cam already.

He’s pretty good at not getting hit, something Cam never mastered.....yeah, the OL had a lot to do with it.  

Cam was the cause of most of his contact. Holding onto the ball and not sliding or running out of bounds. Lamar doesn't really do either.

This fan base has a huge issue with inferiority complex and constantly comparing players to one another

You can replace Cam with most QBs in this topic. The soon to be MVP of the league is better than most QBs already...

Lamar's style and taking hits has been a fairly significant topic. Both seasons.

Ok lets keep this in perspective. 

Lamar is working with Greg Roman 

During Cam's prime he won an MVP with.....Mike Shula. 

Now some would say systems don't matter or they were similar. Here is the thing...

Comparing Shula's spread system to Roman is like comparing Jim Tressel's spread system to Urban Meyer. Both ran the spread, but one was more creative/instrinsic to Urban. He truly was forward thinking and enhanced the spread. While JT was doing simply becaus he had a mobile QB. 

It truly sucks that the Panthers wasted those years with Shula. Yes he won games. Yes he won an MVP 

 

However, he could have been SO much more. No he wouldn't rush for 1000 yards like Lamar. 

But he would have had a chance to maintain his status as a great QB with a better play caller.

LJ is a wonderful talent that will help the league.  No denying it.  Hes a boss.  

 

Has nothing to do with Cam other than numb-nutts who started this trash thread.

Heard the comparison between him and Cam on a podcast today. First thing really mentioned, dont use him like Carolina did Cam and let him take tons of hits. We were concerned from the start, sounds like others are going to possibly learn from our mistakes.

Yep. Both can be great. 

Lamar Jackson is an evolution of the position that we’ve never really seen. 

Cam has won MVP and Jackson will now likely do the same. 

But comparing the two isn’t necessary. They are both freaks

[rodeo]

if Cam had Greg Roman as his OC we would have won multiple Super Bowls.

[DamnItJake!]

This just shows how patience can help.. but like Newton this type of QB takes a pounding!!so just depends on the team and right now Baltimore is the team to beat in the AFC

[GoPanthers123]

He should have been pulled at the start of 4th quarter.   I’m rooting for BAL to win the supebowl this year 

[JawnyBlaze]

I’m sure this thread will age well

I Would argue the reverse off what we have never seen. Have we ever seen a 6'5 250 rocket arm agile power thrower who runs over defenders and away from them?? No. No comparison to cam newton. while jackson is rare, you can easily as they have already done compare him to vick and what vick was suppose to be. and even kyler in the same mold. you will see another 2-3 Jacksons before you fine another Newton.
