Football, Cam Newton | featured news

PFT: Cincinnati finally sees rookie QB play well, and it comes during a win over the Panthers and their lauded rookie, Cam Newton.

Cam Newton's selection as the No. 1 pick turned out to be one of the few predictable elements of this most unusual NFL draft....

Quarterback has been the most talked about position of the 2011 NFL draft, with Cam Newton and Blaine Gabbert both expected to go in the top 10 and Ryan Mallett, Jake Locker, Christian Ponder and Andy Dalton projected to go late in the first round or early in the second.

It's almost unheard of - a quarterback cranking out a string of 13 straight games with never an off day. But Auburn's Cam Newton spent the 2010 season redefining what's possible at that position....

When Auburn quarterback Cam Newton's name was announced Saturday night at the Best Buy Theater in Times Square, he bowed his head and smiled. There was no emotional, tear-filled speech, like the one delivered last year by Alabama's Mark Ingram. There was also no surprise.
