You may think this is a pointless thread but I really would like to discuss this..

Cam Newtons throws and his form are just insane like nothing I've ever seen in my life from any QB ever. Its just amazing. I'm not saying hes going to be a great QB or not but his form is just the best I've ever seen.

discuss...

The Good.

Cannon for an arm.

Very quick release.

Keeps his eyes downfield.

Has great pocket awareness.

Can easily see over defenders.

Mobile.

Stand tall in the pocket.

Accurate on deep passes.

The Bad.

Can be very inaccurate in short to medium passes.

Throws off back foot to often. (which leads to inaccuracy)

Footwork needs work.

Need work reading defenses.

in all honesty, i think his accuracy will improve over time once he gets his footwork down.

if he can stop throwing off his back foot, i think that alone will dramatically increase his passing ability (and it's already pretty impressive)

do you know how insane this place would be if he had hit AE for a diving grab in the end zone saturday night? stepping into his throws better should help his accuracy and add a little velocity at the same time. only good things will come from that

May i remind yall he is fresh out of college and Rivera and this staff will get this fixed. Cam has the drive to improve anyway... we have not seen even close to what the finished product will be. The fact is being so fresh out of college he has shown very positive things

Always good times to hear people comment about a quarterback's throwing motion when 99% have no experience playing the position or coaching.

I thought Brett Favre's throwing motion was terrible and most "experts" would probably agree. However, he turned out just fine.

    • Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.
    • The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter. 
    • Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
