People saying that dalton should be ROTY are full of crap cos the bengals are loaded with talent on both sides of the ball and just needed a game manager like dalton to manage the game, besides their schedule is as easy as it gets this year.

Vote cam for NFC pro bowl squad!

The Panthers are 1-5 in games decided by one score or less, and their defense has been a MESS (plus the loss to Minnesota goes directly to a late penalty and a missed chippy field goal). The losses cannot be pinned on Cam; in fact they’ve been in games – against quality opponents – strictly because of Cam.

Dalton has been pretty good, but not as good as Cam. The Bengals’ 5-2 record should be credited to an improved defense (and a fairly favorable schedule). I already explained Ponder’s head-to-head win over Carolina. He too has been good, but not as good as Newton.

Before the season I posted exactly what I said here: Although I like Tebow, Cam is a superior athlete and doesn’t have his poor throwing mechanics. Said I was excited to see what a guy with Roethlisberger’s size, even more mobility, and a big arm could do.

But …

I also questioned whether a QB who’d been playing in a simplified spread could handle a pro offense or quickly learn to read complex defenses. For that reason, I didn’t think he was worth the gamble of first-pick money. Yes, I was wrong

He’s no Jamarcus Russell.

Believe what you like, but Cam ranks 13th in Passer Rating and 13th in QBR. Pretty astounding for a rookie but not better than Brady (2,2) or Brees (4,3).

It’s ok for you to say Cam is good, but just admit that you were wrong about him too.

I was skeptical, but now I’m a believer in this entertainer/icon AND QB.

He’s doing great for the flak he’s gotten before even given a chance but will he be satisfied with it and call it a day.

If he’s like eh, I’ve done good enough then there could be trouble ahead.

There are plenty of guys across all sports who have the eh attitude. They did good enough and don’t have the desire to work at improving all facets of the game.

If Cam has the crazy work ethic like Kobe, jordan and others he’s has a bright future ahead.

The boy truly has performed beyond anyone’s expectations.

I don’t watch college football so I listened to all the “experts”. I was convenienced that we should not take him because of the “experts”. But as soon as the Panthers drafted him, I started teaching my 2yr and 3yr old who the new panthers quarter backs name is…Cam Newton!!

If you had a team which QB would you want Cam or Andy……If you are honest with yourself Cam would be your pick!!

He’s making rookie mistakes, but his demonstrated NFL caliber ability is blowing me away, and I didn’t like him at Auburn nor did I think he was going to be much of anything — if ever — until his 3rd year at the earliest.

That he is doing this well thus far, with a broken defense and making rookie mistakes (throw the record out, it is irrelevant at this point), he gets a B+ in my book.

There are only a handful of QBs that I’d take over Cam. He has more tools than anyone to play the spot, in my opinion.

Good start, Cam. Keep it up unless you end up playing my Bears again.

Call me crazy but I think he has a chance to be even better than Andrew Luck when it’s all said and done. Cam plays with a chip on his shoulder and like he’s got something to prove. Nothing was given to him. He was so heavily criticized and scrutinized, while Luck is already being touted as the next Peyton Manning or John Elway.

You only need to compare him to Brady and Brees, who he’s better than currently anyways.

Well done Cam.
