What would you rather sign... Cam Newton OR...

- Start date
Cam Newton would be a huge pickup, but I can't see our offense getting worse under T. Russell. If we could the defense to be in the top 6 in the conference, then things will really turn around...
either Cam Newton
or
Robert Bean AND
Fred Smoot AND
Willie Blade AND
JJ Johnson
I'll take the latter.

If we had 2 shutdown corners, we beat LSU & GT, even with subpar QB play. That's not even counting the DL and RB he's talking about.
USC with their QB but without their 2 CBs, a top DL and a top RB would get their *** kicked at Ohio St. And I'll concede that in their case, losing one RB wouldn't really make that much difference because they're so deep there. But we don't have that depth.
..."Newton is the savior and Russell is garbage." Brought to you by the creators of "John Brady and Mark Gottfried are better than Stansbury."
The 'defense wins championships' adage still holds true. But, I bet every team that's ever won a substantial championship largely off of a lock down defense still had a solid QB on the offensive side. Crappy QBs can singlehandedly wear their own solid defense down by interceptions and 3 and outs alone - *cough*henig*cough*.
I want both. Fortunately for us, we have a coaching staff that appears [at this point] to be competent and energetic enough to get talent on both sides of the ball.

Add those players to the team now, and we're looking at a 4-1 record. That is with the current offense and Tyson Lee at the helm. The offense has actually been productive, and we have to assume it will only get more productive with Tyler Russell running the show. With the kind of defensive additions you're talking about, and an upgrade at the QB position, I believe we have a pretty damn solid team.</p>
and correct me if i'm wrong, but didnt Madkin need help from Wyatt, even with all the extra guys too? A really good QB makes your entire offense better, which also makes your defense better.
You can find CB's on any Miami street corner, but not QB's.</p>
Smoot and Bean wouldnt have caused us to beat LSU, fewer TO's and a few more plays from RB and QB would have though. We held LSU down pretty well defensively.</p>
