charlie ward in his last year was the best college qb i've ever seen, at least for a season. newton reminds me of ward, he's just s smooth and doesn't get rattled, throws well and can obviously run. i'd say it's close.
i think it's a good comparison because they are both basically one year qb's.
i'd say ward was a better scrambler for his size but newton can make up for it because he's so big. passing was about even. i guess i'd have to go with newton because he's basically like charlie ward except much bigger.
i'd take newton over young and tebow any day. i think newton does just about everything better than tebow did.

of course, i'm just comparing qb's. it's hard to compare newton to a guy like bo jackson or herschel walker. i don't know that i'd put newton in the same group as those guys.

WHEN YOU STAND BACK IN THE POCKET FOR 30 SECONDS ANYONE WOULD LOOK GOOD, HE IS GOOD BUT HE HAS NOT BEEN TESTED YET. ALABAMA TESTED HIM IN THE 1ST HALF THEN THEY STOPPED PRESSURING HIM

Vince Young's last year was the best season Ive ever seen by a college player. Beat Ohio St that year at ohio st who was loaded with NFL talent and a USC team loaded with first round picks. Other than Miami in 2000, I thought that Ohio St team was the best team since the bcs was in place to not play for a title.

Theres no arguing the numbers but i would take Newton over Tebow..Newton has turned a team around like nobody i have ever seen from a single player..Auburn went from a ok season to a undefeated season in the best conference in the country pretty damn impressive..If he doesn't win the Heisman they should not have that trophy anymore

i am really looking forward to this BCS nation Championship game more than any previous games.I love the tempo both these teams play offense at should be entertaining as hell cant wait

Just imagine if Tebow got to play under Malzahn's offense instead of Addazi's his last year

Tim also did what Cam did this year as a sophomore lol and did it for 3 years solid
this is why you cannot legitimately call Cam the best... not saying it's Tebow... but Cam hasn't even done it for a full two years... one of the best single seasons ever, but there have been way too many guys who did it for 3 or 4 years, to call Cam the best CFB player ever...

Anyone has to admire how he plays, and with confidence. That has to spread out to his teammates. No need to put on a scale. Just enjoy him play and excel at the game.
People are always trying to put on some sort of measurement.
Remember Eric Crouch? He's now selling playground equipment.
Chris Weinke?
I get the feeling Cam Newton is not one of "those," and is on another level. He is a runner and a passer, and knows how to make a play when you need it.

it is hard to say he is the best college player ever but I don't think that would be a real stretch, I mean who could we say was better than him?
he is fun to watch, he amazes me by the week
I can't wait to see the Tigers and Ducks go at it
a great championship game
It may seem silly, but you do have to ask that question. I'm in total and complete awe of Cam Newton. Way back at the start of the season, I deemed him the "most explosive player in college football" or something to that effect and caught hell for it.
I don't think we can say he's the best ever. Too many players over the years who filled different roles. And you have to consider that he's one and done. So many others made big impact over several season.
One thing is for sure- YOU CANNOT STOP HIM. I would venture to say that no defense in college football history could stop this guy. He could have a bad game...but only Cam can stop Cam.
Vince Young was unstoppable. This guy is better. He makes the rest of the players on the field look like neighborhood boys.

since he has only played for (not even) one season.....NO WAY he is worthy of "best ever" tag... Maybe change to "most dominant"....or most valuable EVER.....to his team.... meaning > ...name a player who had a greater ability to take over a game and dominate the opponent ?.....
maybe > Vince....Tebow..... Herschel ....Bo...OJ...Jim Brown...................he's in the discussion for sure * hint > don't BET against him ....might be good year to skip the ...FADE the Heisman winner....(especially when playing the loser)....wagering angle
