    is everything Rich Lord thought Vince Young would be. You are looking at the rookie of the year and a dominant NFL quarterback.

    As stated in the other thread, he's back down to earth now. Let's see if he can bounce back. No doubt Newton will be a better passer than VY, but how much is to be determined.

    I remember numerous proclaimed Cam Newton a bust and we saw plenty of VY and Russell comparisons.

    Dude is a physical specimen. I thought he would be good but not this good this fast.

    Cam Newton has a serious accuracy problem. Reminds me of someone. He has a ways to go.

    Packs have picked him off three times already today. He looked good in the beginning, a little shaky now.

    He's finally now making rookie mistakes, but his arm is nothing like VY. Cam has an NFL arm and can make all the throws.

    Expected considering that he's playing the SB champs which has a great D.

    Agreed on his arm strength, but Cam Newton's accuracy is like VY's. If he shows dedication to his craft during the offseason (unlike VY), that can be improved.

    I said last week his game against the Cards was beginners luck. The combination of defenses figuring him out and the lockout means things will be very tough going forward.

    Yes. And Green Bay has the best secondary in the NFL.

    Eagles and Jets may disagree with you.

    He looks like a steal in fantasy.

    I just picked him up earlier this week, shocked that he was a FA.

    Only if he starts rushing, and only if your scoring format overlooks interceptions.

    this is some of the stupidest stuff i've read yet. dudes with accuracy problems don't go 400+ in their first two games. he was playing the superbowl champs you know.

    Whatever. There is nothing stupid about it and you would know that if you saw the game today.

    Keep your shirt on.
