Cam Newton a product of his system?

I'm not taking anything from him he's amazing, but do you think there would be a massive drop off if he got hurt and Anderson had to fill in? I know we wouldn't be winning as much or in as many games, but I feel the O would still generate points.

Considering our hot and cold running game and the fact that Cam makes a ton of plays with his legs to keep drives alive...I'd say yeah our offense would probably take a pretty decent hit. Don't take away from what this guy is doing just because he's playing in a good offense.

yeah the american system. The african american athletic superiority system due to gene pool selection from slavery 500 years ago. And cam's like in the 0.1% of that group, like peppers, jordan, lebron. If you're talking about that system, i agree.

Other than that cam's anything but a product of the system. With the exception of sunday this team's "system" looked pretty shaky and still does for the most part. I'm pretty sure it's not even completely in place yet, whatever they are still trying to do. He was still playing mainly on instinct up until this past weekend. But we're still calling the majority of our plays from shotgun. When they fully transition cam to the nfl maybe.

Right now cam's actually making chud use his college system at the nfl level. He's also leading the way and teaching the coaches a winning mentality now!

Seriously, that's what it looks like to me. Rivera's following cam's winning philosophy, which is a lot better than what i suspect we would have from just rivera but it's bad that it's cam that's leading that spear. He's not learning that from rivera. He should be, or should have been, but that's a different argument.

wow!!!!!!!!!!

Chud had 1 good year in Cleveland. You have to be able to have a proven track record over several years or it has to be successful in several places before it can be called a system.

At this point we have a top 5 team in yards but we are 14th in points scored. I think folks are getting way ahead of themselves.

loooooooooooooooooooool

yeah, the system is the thing allowing Cam to make throws only elite quarterbacks to make

DISCLAIMER: not calling him elite, still has to correct a lot of mental errors and some other rookie things, but some of the throws he's making are nothing short of amazing. the one to Smitty the other day to the one yard line was a thing of beauty, and a throw I can't see many other QB's in the NFL making.

    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
