Cam Newton. Colin Kaepernick. Two quarterbacks, who in the past 5 years have been inevitably linked due to their stark similarities and have both been credited to revolutionizing the way football is played at the QB position.
The similarities between the two are numerous. Both are non-traditional, non-white, non-pocket passing QBs who rely equally as much on their mobility and legs as they do their arm. Both have received their share of unfair criticism regarding their touchdown celebrations, from Kaepernick’s “Kaepernicking” to Cam’s “Dabbing”. Both of their character’s have been questioned, having both been called arrogant and bad role models for the younger generation.
Both have had their successes in the NFL, but as we prepare for the buildup to Super Bowl XL, we see that their futures couldn’t be any more opposite.
