Cam Newton vs Andy Dalton, who should be rookie of the year?

[Philip]

Cam Newton's got the stats, Andy Dalton's got the wins. I wanna know who everyone thinks deserves it the most. Feel free to make your case for another rookie if you believe they deserve it more than either of them. But let's face it, it's gonna be either Newton or Dalton.

I don't see how there is a comparison here. It is Cam Newton by far! Look at his stats.

[blahhhhhhh]

Ryan Kerrigan. He's on a horrible team. But if you had to pick between the two, Cam Newton. He makes things happen.

Cam Newton by a landslide

I think the media will put a heavy bias towards Cam Newton. Where the Bengals finish will play a role too, since wins are a factor. They still have to deal with rivalry matches and there are only a few more weak teams on the schedule.

So far Newton, but let see what happens the second half.

DeMarco Murray is on the rise too..... it's a 3 man race between Murray, Newton, and Dalton..... Patrick Peterson is already a lock for defensive rookie of the year.

If it came down to the two of these two guys and I had a vote I would choose Dalton over Newton. Dalton has led the Bengals (a team that wasn't supposed to do anything) to a winning record and Newton has led a team that has continued to lose. I would take wins over stats any day...

Torrey Smith

Newton hands down. He has more responsibility than Dalton and he runs too. The Panthers wouldn't be able to move the football without him and Steve Smith is rejuvenated because of him. Dalton's job is to not make mistakes while Newton has to make things happen with his arms and legs just like he was at Auburn and he is having an epic rookie season (even better than Peyton's). It's not even close. It's like saying Joe Flacco should had won over Matt Ryan just because the Ravens made it to the AFC championship game.
