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.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
