He was pretty damn good overall those first 7 years or so. He took too much punishment and his body fell off a Cliff. It’s too bad because he’s was as gifted physically as anyone who has ever played QB. [Reply]

Sorta.
I mean, he was huge and athletic with a strong arm. So that pretty much made him early stage Josh Allen.
But where Allen developed his short/intermediate accuracy, Cam never did. Allen's good for about a 66% completion% these days and was at about 60% before his breakout.
Newton completed 60% of his passes on his career, that's including his MVP season.
The ability to repeat your mechanics in a way that allows you to put the ball where you want to is a physical skill and Newton just never had that. He's always been erratic as hell.
For massive chunks of his career, even when he was healthy, he was little more than a flashier Mitch Trubisky. It's awfully hard to win consistently with a guy like that. [Reply]
