Cam Newton Weeks 2 and 16- Most any Falcon’s fan you ask will have Cam Newton near or at the top of their least favorite athletes. Cam Newton is ever the entertainer clowning around on the field celebrating and dancing letting out his inner high school kid.

Some have destroyed him for it while others have lauded it. No matter where you fall on his behavior there is no debating his talent. Cam is electric on a football field with an overpowering arm and bigger than most linebackers.

Watching him run through defenses taking hits and cheap shot after cheap shot it isn’t hard to see how tough he is. Cam is in a class of his own not quite as elite as our next set of quarterbacks but well enough established to be considered great.

He is looking to shake off the haunting Super Bowl loss and return to the playoffs this season in a stacked division. Taking on Cam is a challenge, imagine how challenging it could be if he had any elite playmakers around him…
