Those guys you listed are great playmakers (or were in college), but let me defer you to a Hall of Fame QB on the difference between a playmaker and a championship caliber QB.




Steve Young's part starts around 1:00 in the video. On a side note: I'm still scratching my head why Rush (even though he's a idiot) was fired or crucified for those comments. I don't think they were that out of line. Hell, Jalen Rose's comments were 10 times worse.

I hope that girl doesn't think he's going to be some sort of faithful husband or what not. He'll be banging more girls than Brett Farve ever did while married.

Re: ESPN Say's Newton To Enter Draft

Gruden sold on Newton's potential

"I think Cam Newton's the best player in the country,'' the former coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers said Friday afternoon after leading the former Auburn quarterback through passing drills at the University of South Florida. "I agree with the Heisman Trophy people that gave him the award. He's got everything I'm looking for.''


"I love being around these players,'' said Gruden. "I miss coaching, but this is as close as it gets. We've had most of the top quarterback prospects here in the last few weeks. There are three juniors, Newton, (Blaine) Gabbert and (Ryan) Mallett, who, if they had stayed in school, may be a little more polished, but these are physically talented people. I think Andy Dalton (TCU) and Jake Locker (Washington) have some real upside as well.''

Re: ESPN Say's Newton To Enter Draft

Gruden's blessing at the QB position isn't something I'd hang my hat on. After all, the guy got fired because he kept choosing the wrong personnel for the Buccaneers. Besides, when did Gruden become some QB guru? I must have missed that franchise QB he developed during his time with the Raiders/Buccaneers.


The guy blows smoke up people's ass. Has he ever given a bad review on anybody?

His endorsement last year of Tebow was all I need to know...either he's A)hold'em the company line (4 letter) B) he's really a bad talent evaluator

His segments are cool and ill watch....his opinion on talent ill take with a grain of salt

As far as developing QBs he seems to work better with veteran guys, Gannon and Johnson both had some great seasons with him.

May have already been posted.....
AND I cannot find confirmation...but ESPN's NFL Live reported yesterday that Cam was at Redskins Park on Friday.
