Bo Jackson Thinks Cam Newton Is Best Quarterback to Ever Walk the Planet

September 3, 2011 by Larry Brown • Comments

Bo Jackson is an Auburn alumnus. He was on the sidelines celebrating the team’s national championship. Cam Newton was the star player on that team. It’s safe to say that Bo developed quite the hard-on for Cammy over the past year.

Describing Cam’s talents on The Jim Rome Show Thursday, Bo got a tad bit carried away.

“He has the arm strength and power of Dan Marino and John Elway combined,” Bo began. “He is quicker than Michael Vick, faster than Michael Vick. And he will run over you with the power of a Jerome Bettis, Bo Jackson, Earl Campbell. That is the type of guy that he is. There isn’t another quarterback in the NFL that has all of those tangibles.”

With that combination of ability, I’m truly wondering how Cam hasn’t managed to end the fighting in Libya, cure world hunger, and fix the U.S. budget. What can’t Zeus of the gridiron do?

In case you think that’s all a joke, listen to the clip below as passed along by Los That Sports Blog:

Bo Jackson knows many things, but as they said on Yardbarker, there’s one more thing Bo also knows: hyperbole.
