Cam Newton was officially named the starter in New England which means that he is going to be compared to the guy who left before him, the great Tom Brady. Big shoes to fill, but many people are confident in his abilities coming off of injury with a chip on his shoulder.
Some are not as convinced.
I am someone who is not as convinced. When it comes to Cam Newton and the Patriots, there is no doubt that Cam Newton can be a special player. However, he can't win it all for them and his skill players around him are nothing compared to Tom Brady's cast of characters. They just dumped Mo Sanu and their No. 1 is an aging Julian Edelman. N'Keal Harry was disappointing last year and LOOK AT WHAT TOM BRADY HAS.
Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, Gronk, Ronald Jones as a scat back and Leonard Fournette as a power back? You think Cam can make up for all of that talent missing? I don't think so.
