Simple solution for all of Cam Newton's faults if we draft him...

That could work, but I think it would be more likely that the Redskins cut McNabb we pick him up as a mentor for Newton.

First off, forget the offensive coordinator from the Eagles, Marty isnt that good, if you want Newton SO bad, get McNabb to start for a year.

Vick = sub 4.4 speed

Newton = Not going to be bowling over people in the NFL

I don't see all the similarities others are seeing. Yes they are both mobile QBs. But Newton is a much bigger guy and not nearly as fast. His ability to run in college is what makes him such a special player. I'm not sure he would be quite as effective on the NFL level carrying the ball.

He's a more mobile Big Ben IMO. McNabb can teach him how to be a great passer even if he's not at the top of his game anymore.

I dunno how someone as crappy as McNabb is gonna mentor anyone.

Similar styles coming out of college, McNabb could help him to be a better pocket passer, help him get used to the speed of the game, etc...

If Hurney/Richardson are stupid enough to draft Newton at #1 overall, I think it would be time for me to move on to a new team.

K. Well if they go that route, bye.

I think Big Ben is a much better comparison. But Vick.. come on. Newton is a very risky pick IMO and we have to get something that is a sure deal with that pick. We are pretty much starting from scratch and Luck would have been just what the Dr Ordered. But I'm not exactly thrilled with any other QB prospect that high in the draft. Desperation rarely pays off. Keep in mind. Its not like Newton has been doing this for years..

nobody we draft is a sure fire slam dunk, not even luck, i still don't see luck as the best qb in recent memory like many do but would have taken him number 1 , newton might be the best risk/reward player of the two with his elite athletic gifts. he's a better passer than either vick or young were at this point in their careers & has similar elusiveness they have

      Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.

      oh now that's what you call Mother Fiuggure fans the ones that always have this fierce protective shield around the team no matter if they win or lose  & to be honest there is nothing really wrong with being a Mother Fiugguer fan they just have a different meaning or sense of what a true fan really is                                                 ☺️
