Cool story.
Call me when Cam learns how to master a playbook longer than 50 pages and how to read defenses.
Right now he exploits holes in coverages and alignments with his legs and scrambling ability. Vick used to be the same way (only less accurate of a passer). It may be good now, but it's going to get a lot tougher as he gets older. And when he goes up against really tough teams in the playoffs (if he ever leads his team there) he's not going to be able to do his Cam Newton thing 100% and expect to win those games.
That being said, there's plenty of time for him to figure stuff out. He will one day. Most QBs do. In the meantime, while the NFL has changed to reflect wide open spread concepts and in some cases the read option, it's not college yet.
