Mad props to Cam Newton

That was the point of the Zorn example. The first part of the season, he was new and there was no game film on his offense. Remember that Zorn for NFL coach of year and Portis for MVP talk at the half? The second half (and following season) the defenses had caught up with him and stuffed anything he put on the field. EVEN THE ELUSIVE SWINGING GATE!(following year)


Kid has been outstanding this year as a rookie, and even more impressive because it's at the QB position. He made all the throws he needed to yesterday and ran when he had to. I'm not going to sit here and say......."Well, Smitty is the reason.......or Haslett didn't do this or that on the defensive scheme". A bunch of bullshit woulda/coulda scenarios there. In the end he tore us a new asshole.
