[QUOTE="GreenNGold_81, post: 884582, member: 11374"] But that's just it, QB's don't run as much in the red zone because they're not built like Cam. He's unique. A force to be reckoned with and it's led him to the most TD's (rushing) ever by a QB. There's a place for QB's like that in the hall IMO - who played the position differently, and the best to ever do so. Why compare him to Fitzpatrick? Old man Fitz has been in the league since 2005, in 15 seasons he has 16 rushing touchdowns. Cam has [B][U][I]62[/I][/U][/B] since 2011. Not only that, Cam has had two years effectively ruined by a shoulder injury that affected his throwing motion. He had to literally retrain his arm to throw downfield. He may still play for another 5 plus years. Putting 80+ rushing TD's in the realm of possibility. Is a QB who is on pace to pass the rushing td marks of Priest Holmes, Marshawn Lynch, Jerome Bettis, etc. going to miss the hall? Doubtful. I can go on... Cam had young WR's to throw to his last couple years in Carolina as they rebuilt their WR core, and has basically nobody to throw to consistently in New England. Despite that, they are still productive on offense. Per PFF, over the first three games this year Newton’s passing grade on throws of 10-plus yards was the fifth-highest in the NFL (he missed the subsequent games because of COVID). So he hasn't lost anything in his game. He can pass downfield, and he's crushing it in the red zone rushing. He hasn't shown signs of slowing down. Lock for the HOF. [/QUOTE]
