Which QB would you compare Cam Newton to?

He reminds me of Ben Roethlisberger because of his size and mobility. Also because they both ran a spread offense in college. It is hard to choose because Newton had such a successful season last year.

So who does he remind you of and please do not just put Newton=QB name. I have seen it in so many threads. At least give some support for your comparison/opinion.

newton = newton

if he's going to be successful in this league, he's going to have to make a name for himself and not just be another copycat qb.

I agree but experts are always trying to throw names out there as to who they think the player will best resemble. I hate bringing him up but experts were going crazy about Luck and how he could be the next Manning or even better.

Can't compare him to just one QB he's a mixture of a couple players I see some Big Ben/Josh Freeman in his game with his size, extending plays and cannon of a arm. Don't think another QB runs like him that's why I say Adrian Peterson elusive, fast and powerful/trucking people running the ball.

Cam will be the first Cam if all goes well and he pans out cosign replive

Cam Newton remind me of...

Thomas Edison

Both are falsely viewed as revolutionary figures. Both men's proficiency and ingeniousness have been grossly overstated. And both have gotten to where they are by stealing; Edison stealing the inventions of his contemporaries, and Newton stealing the hearts of America.

I mean just look at that smile. (He's sooo dreamy!)

Cam can only dream of having the agility and speed of AP. His speed is more in line with the faster TEs in the league (excluding Davis), not the faster RBs. I don't know many QBs that came out of college with basically just as many rushing attempts as passing attempts. I guess a bigger but slower and less athletic Joe Webb.

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
