The list has grown to 4!

Peter King of SI and NBC, Mike Florio of profootballtalk.com and NBC, Frank Garcia former Panthers Center and WFNZ host, and Michael Wilbon of ESPN. That is the list of people who believe Cam Newton can or will be the Michael Jordan of the NFL!

I just saw Wilbon say that on PTI. Compared him to Gretsky and Jordan. I don't really care about that I just hope Cam continues to reach his potential (with the Panthers and no one else) and lead us to a championship.

I think Jim Harbaugh said it best when he said Cam was "Plutonium grade raw material." I think he is more refined than anyone expected him to be at this point, but he has potential to become a QB the likes of which the league has never seen.

I agree. Make it 5:thumbsup:

Moohahah!

Cam Newton makes Peyton Manning look like a dork off the field.

It's not good to have lost all those games last year and getting the #1 overall pick in the draft .... but .... the Carolina Panthers couldn't have picked a better year to have that #1 pick. :D

It looks like the Panthers "hit the lottery" in 2011 with Cam.

Let's hope he gets better and better. It's kind of scary to think how good he might be with a year or two of NFL experience. He might be better than Tom Brady and Peyton by then. Maybe sooner. Never know with Cam.

Good thing Mj has strong connections to the QC... Charlotte bout to blow.

I just hope the Oline coaches are working HARD with the Oline guys. They gotta protect their new record breaking QB like he's the President and they're the Secret Service or something. They're the body guards.

It would be bad for the Panthers if Cam got injured just like with the Colts without Peyton. The Colts are in bad shape for this season. No doubt.

The Oline need to be "bad azzes" in the trenches in passing AND run blocking. They need to give Cam more time so he can throw with good mechanics with his footwork and follow thru, etc.

Cam still needs some time to get used to the speed of the NFL. The NFL is like a computer game that has multiple levels that get faster and faster. Cam needs to get used to playing at level 9-10 ... up from level 7 in SEC college football. When Cam is hurried too much, he tends to try to force things and make mistakes like he did in the Packers game. The Packers defense was a definite 10 defense. Gotta admit, Cam did alright against those guys. A lot of experienced QBs would kill to throw 430 yards on the Packers defense.

Eff the media and male sexual organ riding. (edited for the corporate sponsors)

[HoFBound90]

They are just building him up they can rip him to pieces when he hits a rookie slump or doesn't live up to expectations. They win either way.

[Gipetto]

Its cause he's black and michael jordans black..easy comparison

Don't take my post serious

[Jackofalltrades]

Pass protection hasn't been an issue. I really don't know how much better it can get.

Run blocking on the other hand...
