An Instagram account I follow, Vegan Fitness & Nutrition, posted about Cam Newton declaring he feels like a rookie again because adopted a vegan diet that has helped him recover from his injuries. The post calls Newton "one of the all-time most successful Quarter Backs in NFL." I commented that I appreciated the message but that calling Cam Newton one of the all time most successful QBs in the NFL a stretch. The guy who made the post said the fact that Newton won the MVP in 2015 - one of just 28 QBs in the 100-year history of the NFL to win the award - proves he is one of the all time best.

I won't bother researching so I'll concede to whatever, whoever finds what but I'm pretty sure his injuries coincided with the start of his vegan diet, I remember looking that up at the time because I'm personally fascinated with the delusional mentality found in most vegan proponents
no offense to any here, but I don't trust anyone giving nutritional advice whej their diet is tied to an ethical perspective
I'm pretty sure they would recommend I eat glass before I "murder" a clam
wts Cam is an idiot who doesn't understand the difference between a gorilla's digestive system and a humans. He is undoubtedly taking countless supplements to maintain a strong physique on his incomplete diet.
Kap on the other hand looks to have lost about 40 lbs of muscle since eating grass

Well, you are right that would be a stretch. The NFL MVP award hasn't been around for 100 years. It didn't start until 1957 which would mean about 45% of the award winners were QB's. Also remember Brian Sipe was one of the award winners and most people wouldn't consider him one of the most successful QB's in the NFL either.

Well that dredges up more painful memories. Sipe won the MVP in 1980, and came with an eyelash of beating the Raiders in the divisional round of the playoffs in Cleveland, when Sipe had the KKs inside the Raiders' 10 with under a minute to go, trailing by 2 pts. They opted to go for six rather than 3, and Sipe threw an INT in the end zone, which brought the Raiders to San Diego the following week for the AFC title game. We know what happened next. I think Fouts and the boys woulda, coulda, shoulda beat the Browns and then gone onto beat the Eagles in the SB.

No wonder no team hasn’t signed him. He isn’t worth close to his acting price.

The 2020 NFL season is fast approaching, but Jadeveon Clowney remains a free agent. Despite getting some interest, he could remain on the open market even longer.

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler broke down the latest rumors on the star pass-rusher on SportsCenter Sunday:

"The wait continues. There is no indication that Jadeveon Clowney is ready to sign today. This could push up right until Week 1. I've spoken to several teams and they believe his asking price is still around $17 million per year. Now they haven't heard exactly just yet because he's been pretty quiet, but nobody's willing to pay that right now. He's gotten multiple offers from multiple teams, anywhere from Cleveland Browns, Tennessee Titans, Seattle Seahawks. He hasn't budged on that asking price. He's coming up to a situation where he's gotta decide if he wants to play this year or could he wait out the entire season, and there's still several teams heavily monitoring this."

Clowney spent last season with the Seattle Seahawks, finishing with just 31 tackles and three sacks in 13 games. He underwent sports hernia surgery in February after being limited by a core injury for much of the 2019 season.

The three-time Pro Bowler was seeking a salary among the best defenders in the NFL, reportedly as much as $20 million per year initially, according to Kimberley A. Martin of ESPN. He also has turned down offers of over $15 million per year.

Though he is seemingly staying firm on his high asking price, Josina Anderson reported in June that Clowney still planned to join a team "before the season starts."

The challenge could be finding a team willing and able to meet his demands.

Fowler listed the Browns, Titans and Seahawks as possibilities, but Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk reported in July that Cleveland was likely out of the race after restructuring the deal for Olivier Vernon.

Defensive end Everson Griffen also only earned a one-year, $6 million deal with the Dallas Cowboys after tallying eight sacks last season.

Even at different ages and skill sets, this could make it tougher for Clowney to earn the amount of money he is seeking this offseason.
