Did Cam Newton Live Up To The Hype?

Won an MVP and got to an SB so he exceeded expectations

He gave the panthers multiple exciting years including the greatest season they had in their franchise history. Yes

did he live up to the hype? No

Was he an above average #1 overall pick? Yes

"bwoy" "cam thread"

Reminds me of a certain person...

People are really going to argue that a player that won an MVP was a disappointment I hate y'all

Yeah, he did. His peak was cut short by injury though.

Got more hype than Brady, even while Brady was still in his prime playing
Now compare their careers

No he was supposed to be a hall of famer

They was calling him the lebron james of the qb position

No, he didn’t and he was my favorite college player ever and one of my fave nfl players ever. After the mvp season, was downhill from there. Injuries and play just faltered

Did an mvp winning QB live up to the hype? Umm yes. And don't forget cam had plenty of doubters coming out of college.

There was consensus around Cam at #1 but he wasn't talked about like some can't miss prospect. Brady wasn't a first round pick but it's not like every 1st round pick is supposed to be better than Tom Brady because of that. Most #1 picks don't win an MVP OR lead a team to a Superbowl. Cam did both.

So are cam and matt ryan the only NFL MVPs that dont have a hall of fame resume?

Matt could probably revive his career since the colts have a solid offensive line but if he continues to play avg he def not making no hall of fame.

Only on Boxden, where a former MVP doesn't live up to expectations

There Is A Reason Andrew Luck Came In An Broke His Rookie Passing Record, There Is A Reason They Ran Him Into The Ground. Imagine Cam With The Same Playbook JakeDelhomme Along With Wide Reciever Core He Had, Prayers Up To Lamar. Shoutout To The Goats Warren Moon and Steve “Air” McNair.

Is Andrew Luck A Hall Of Famer and Live Up To Potential?

only on boxden do people look at one season to determine a career. He had a winning record in 3 of the 9 seasons where he started 14 games. Thats not good. Luck had a winning record in 5 seasons where he played more than 14 games. Just because he had 1 good season people want to act like Cam lived up to the hype, GTOH

I don't think so. He did have an MVP season but it was all down hill from there and that superbowl lost was uhhhhh, scared of a fumble and everything.
