Jim Harbaugh on Cam Newton

Sorry I know we were all wanting another Newton thread :rolleyes:

I thought is was a funny quote and I agree with him so figured I would throw it out here:

Jim Harbaugh on Cam Newton: "That's plutonium-grade raw material... I haven’t seen upside like with this guy in probably the last 10 years."

Of course there is some stuff in there for Cam Haters to latch onto as well so should be fun for both sides

A great analagy. You have to wonder if he doesn't want the challenge.

Cam had more college production than any other QB in the draft, and he has much more upside. I guess I can understand why that would scare the hell out of some people, but it doesn't scare me half as bad as the prospect of 2-3 more years of the worst QB play in the league. I seriously doubt it can get any worse than last year, even if they put Cam out there as a rookie and have him run the zone read option for half the damn game.

Defense is great, and I like having a defensive minded coach, but you can't win with the worst offense in the entire league.

Maybe I'm blind and missed it, but do you have a link so we can read the entire article?

Thanks.

SHHHHHHHH...don't say the C word! No one cares how any of these guys handled themselves in college.

I think that's a good characterization of Cam Newton... and if you don't know how to handle plutonium grade raw material it will kill you, but if you can handle it you have a powerful weapon.

sounds good to me but JR is still learning email and texts and mumbling about pie charts...

    • Roger all that. Do you think BY avoided any sacks last game? This oline is not what you're touting them to be. They are much better then 2023! Much much much better than 2023. But come on now, you'd expect this expensive oline (most are run blocking specialist) to at least dominate in the run game every game.  And... I keep telling you our WRs and TEs are not that good yet. I mean last Sunday was a prime example. Our receiving targets never make plays like those. Never. And this is from one of the worst teams in the league. Shough could have easily had 3 INTs if not for his receivers making plays on the ball. Our guys just don't do that. XL almost allowed an INT backing up out of bounds instead of coming to the ball. And everyone would have blamed that on BY. That's why he doesn't throw to that dude. I can't recall a game except maybe the second Falcons game - maybe, where I thought our receivers could possibly be better than the other team's. I think TMac and Coker have a lot of potential. But they're aren't consistent. But they're young and WILL improve. I'm confident of that.  I don't agree that BY was drafted to only stand in the pocket. He has always been best off schedule - for better or worse. 
    • Do you think you will get a direct answer?  Icky giving up 5 pressures (playing hurt in his defense) by himself and Bryce only getting sacked once tells you he played well in the pocket.  He extended plays and converted some tough downs.  
    • I've been very apprehensive about potentially firing yet another head coach. But Canales needs to focus on being a head coach first and foremost and begin handing off some responsibilities like playcalling duties and begin overseeing the entire team or we need to assess all possible ideal HC candidates in the offseason.
