More Fun Cam Newton Stuff

Only one negative Newton thread allowed at a time or else it'll throw off the 20-1 ratio!!!!!!!!

Right, the vast majority of these threads have been started by the anti-Cam crowd. It all started with the media only workout that you and Mr. Scot claimed would turn every GM and scout against him. How's that working out for you?

Never said that, I can't speak for him but what I said was that scouts and GMs had already reported that it rubbed them the wrong way.

It's also come out in many scouting reports now that he is a "Me first" guy and they cite the media workout as a reason for that.

It didn't do him any favors

Cam lovers have their fair share of over posting and re-posting pro-Cam articles.

It's just the way it is.

Hard to see without a neutral perspective, I know.

Form my neutral perspective however the anti-Cam's as you call them, seem to have more basis for their argument. Pro cam people's line is along the lines of "just take a chance!" or something to do with race and I have yet to see anyone, anywhere say they would not draft Cam becasue he is black.

You can even see it in the people responding in this article. Ultimately that is what Cam is though, a chance so I suppose there isn't a lot of material there.

Well I haven't started a single thread about Cam Newton, but I sure as hell have answered a lot of threads that were designed to make him look bad.

There have been probably 5 threads about how we shouldn't draft him because he wants to get paid to play football. Imagine a pro football player wanting to get paid...that's just crazy.:rolleyes:

Just because I am neutral doesn't mean I don't have a perspective.

There are a few Cam lovers who actually bring good, supporting evidence. I have read a few good pro-Cam threads...wish there were more.

Why bother?

We've been over the FACTUAL components of Newton beyond any reasonable discussion. In every case, either Mr. Scot, TRD, or mav, and a few others go all out with every internet forum tactic to discredit the facts, portray them negatively, or simply ignore them.

Newton's stock has skyrocketed since Luck announced his decision to stay in school. Without fail, after every test of Cam's ability, his draft stock shot up. The haters lost the the argument that he's not worthy of consideration as #1 overall, they are just in denial about it.

    • Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
    • That's why I say we have to keep looking. Even if you believe Bryce is the guy, KP and Grier are not and who knows if King is anything more than a gimmick player, we should be active in improving our 2nd QB spot. Season ending injuries happen, and you don't just want to roll over and give it up. How many starters have we seen come from the ranks of backup? Having 2 potential starting QBs is one of the best problems we could have. 
    • Eh, it’s more on how bad the refs are. Some of these calls against the canes are no calls
