do you think newton has improved over the course of this season?

[Grammer]

well, in two weeks we'll be at the halfway point for our 2011 year, so i think its time to ask: do you feel as if newton has improved from the arizona game to the atlanta game? or has he stayed the same iyo?

also, im just asking a question, dont take this as an anti newton thread (which some of you probably still will)

[Keith Moons Liver]

i think defenses have improved at stopping him and forcing him to play to his weaknesses

[BIGH2001]

He has done enough to win every week except this one. That's all I care about.

[PantherFan52]

Absolutely. In the first half today he looked like a seasoned veteran, converting all of those third-downs. It's tough because he's playing such a tough schedule. But I think this is going to make him better in the long-run. I'm very excited for the future.

[rdog157h]

I think Legatron has improved alot!

[ProBowler]

Not at all. He's stayed the same or gotten worse. Not sure if he's to blame, the pressure or the coaches, but he's still playing mostly on instinct. Lots of talent and potential completely inconsistent and unrefined.

He's erratic as hell though out there. He was more focused during his first game than he has been since. I'm looking in Rivera's and QB coach's direction.

Yeah definitely. He's been getting some solid pass protection and taking advantage of it(although he does hold onto the ball too long sometimes, typical rookie mistake).

Was awesome seeing him stand tall in the pocket today going through each read. Also seems to have figured out when it's time to bail out on passing and run.

[Firefox]

I believe he's slipped down to about the 25th QB rating or so.

[hank pimple butt]

well The Arizona game they didn't really have film on him. He marched down the field several times on ATL. And he has actually cleaned up on the bad throws. Yeah he had 3 ints today 1 was tipped, 1 was in garbage time, 1 was just a freak play from a DT. This team has asked Cam to put the game on his back every time, and he has answered the call. He just needs help now! the running game has finally surfaced. now if only the D can come around.

[jtnc]

Newton was rushed way too much this game, pass protection was pretty awful. Do I see a change? Yes, he's going through his progressions a lot more, and waiting for the play to open up. But he can't do that if the offensive line doesn't give him time.

[Dilla]

He has done enough to win every week except this one. That's all I care about.

This. I don't think he's gotten worse, not at all.

[jtnc]

Also, his footwork has gotten better.

[Brooklyn Bully]

He's regressed, but only because defenses have game tape on him now. Now it's up to him to step up and be like the Cam that threw for 400+ yds again.
