BuffaloRebound Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 If Rivera wants no part of him in Washington, not a good sign for Cam. No demand for diva QB’s who are always hurt and haven’t played well in a couple years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted that for Brady too, but he saw the writing on the wall and wanted out. I think he has a losing record without Brady as his starter, I know he went 5-11 back to back while Bledsoe was under center and he didn’t do much in Cleveland with either Kosar or Testaverde Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell they can’t even resign some of the major players in their defense. Idk where they’re gonna find the money to sign their rookies They have roughly $20 million in cap space still.

Once you take away his athleticism he’s mediocre at best. He’s not a good pocket passer and only puts up good stats against bad teams. No leadership skills and a premadonna attitude to go with it. Was never a Cam Newton fan, especially after he threw some kids computer out the window while at Auburn Wonder how desperate Doug Moron is down there in Jacksonville lol. He himself has to know that Minshew is not the answer I think you're very much in the majority but I believe people find it easy to dislike Cam and put down his QB play. Even counting a good (not great) D led by DC McD, he got that team to the SB with a no-name receiving core an average OL and a 15-1 record. Just 2 years ago he took over a game in Baltimore giving them a beating. He routinely had 300 yard games and dragged the Panthers over the line. He was a very good franchise QB not in the traditional mold. Funnily, a good equivalent when it comes to putting him down and not accepting his actual achievements is Josh Allen. Of course Newton's persona is much more of a liability than Josh. The problem here is not just last season. The previous season he missed the last 8 games. Then he made a youtube video where he basically admitted that he lied to staff about how much paIn he was in going into the season. He's destroyed his own credibility. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And because of that I think teams will be very weary of signing him, I still say Miami because of location and because his athleticism would definitely fit in Gailey’s system. But of course it all boils down if he can pass the physical or if his body is completely banged up to hell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrEpsYtown Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 I know the Patriots connection seems off of the surface, but remember that Newton best years came under Mike Shula in the Erhardt Perkins system...what we and the Patriots run. So he would be very familiar with the system. The Broncos thing makes sense because of the presence of Mike Shula as the quarterbacks coach. Chargers seem like the no brainer, but I guess they aren’t going to go down that road. For Miami, remember that Chan Gailey is their new OC, and I think Cam fits a lot of what Chan likes to do. Darkhorse for me is the Steelers. I think Mike Tomlin would be able to get the best out of Cam and he could replace Big Ben next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second his stats were good against good teams for several years. Lastly minor point- the computer throwing incident was at University of Florida. Overall though I want no piece of 2020 Cam.
