Couldn't dream of making? Did we watch the same QB at Auburn? Newton and Jackson are both freaks to which Mike Vick is probably their only athletic equal at QB in the college game.

 

For every play Jackson makes that Newton couldn't dream about, what about the plays Newton made that Jackson couldn't?

 

The only plays Newton made that Jackson couldn't would be when he shook off a defender because of his size. The difference is Lamar makes those guys miss when Cam couldn't.

We'll agree to disagree.

Sounds good.

Newton made all the plays in pressurized situations that led his team to a national championship. I would have to see Jackson in similar situations. Pressure can have a strange effect on athletes, both good and bad. Ask me after next season, but right now it's Newton.

I think Lamar could make a special player in the NFL. Just not as a quarterback. Yeah, I said it.

 

And I love that kid. He's made CFB worth watching for me this year. He's must see TV.

 

I'd also take him over Cam in college. Only because of the matchup nightmare with his speed.

I think I'd be surprised if he wasn't a first round pick as a QB. He'll get several opportunities to play QB. I don't know if he'll be any good, but with his arm strength and athleticism he is going to go in the 1st round at least.

I really dislike Cam, but this is a ridiculous question IMO. He's one of the best players in the world at the highest level.

 

Jackson's future IMO is not as a QB.

As college QB's only, I think it's a good question. I know it's next to impossible, but if the only knowledge you have of Cam is at Auburn I think it's close. I still give the edge to Cam based on mere physical presence, but Lamar is one of the 3 best college football players I've ever seen play. Cam, Tebow, and Lamar.

Did Cam lose a game in college?

 

Case closed....

I was at the UK Game the year Auburn and Cam Newton won the NC and I've never seen anyone look the way Cam looked that night. Lebron James on a football field. Lamar is more Steph Curry to me. He can do things that no one ever has been able to do, but I still take Lebron over him all day.

I'm with you. But in Lamars defense he wasn't working with the talent that Cam was.

You sure? Take a look at that Auburn roster....Not a lot of pros that I could find.

You may be right. I was just assuming Cam had more talent.

Hershel, Bo, and Vick and I'm with you.

Also, it's easy to assume that Lamar's book is still unwritten. He wins the trophy this season (and next) and I think this argument changes dramatically.
