Better NFL quarterbacks: Auburn or Georgia?

I know that UGA gets pegged as a place for pro style quarterbacks to thrive due to Richt's pedigree, but does Auburn have the better quarterbacks over the last decade.
The Dwags have sent David Greene, D.J. Shockley and Aaron Murray to careers as backups with Matthew Stafford being the only legitimate week-to-week starter. Auburn on the other hand, has Cam Newton who looks to be a star in the NFL and Jason Campbell was good enough to start for a handful of teams.
So, where is the better school to go to if you're a top quarterback prospect with your sights on the NFL: Auburn or Athens?

Now? Georgia.
Gus is Auburn's coach.

Gus can't get it done with a Heisman level talent like JJ.
I would go to UGA.

Cam has actually won a playoff game and has a better overall QB rating.
So that coupled with the fact that there are no quality Georgia QB's...
Auburn by default.

I feel sorry for JJ. It can't be easy for a college qb to hold off Drew Brees... That's a ton of pressure

Georgia by far

Stafford is on the Lions getting them to the playoffs should be an award on its own

You go to a pro style offense if you want to best be prepared for the NFL. Cam was an anomaly, most of the spread qb's of college never work out in the NFL. This is a no brainier. UGA

Really? You're better than this. 
Have you tried meditation or therapy? Maybe they will come out with a drug that will get Georgia off your mind.

Don't you worry, there is a bigger picture here.

Do tell.

I would say Auburn qbs have done better in the NFL than UGA's here recently. Stafford was the #1 pick, but still has very bad mechanics which leads to a lot of bad pass and ints. Stafford has a top 3 arm in the NFL. A Murray is the back up for the Chiefs, but I think he may get a chance to step in for KC or someone else a few years down the line, so it is too early to tell for him.
Auburn has Cam who has done fairly decent in the NFL, performing similarly to how Stafford has (winning wise). Stafford has better stats than Cam, but Cam doesn't really have many weapons and no one like Calvin. J Campbell actually started some for the NFL, so that is better than the next qb for UGA.
J Eason will be UGA's next big qb, who should end up as a top 3 pick at qb in the NFL draft. Think M Stafford but with better mechanics and footwork. I'm not sure Auburn has any future pro qb prospects on their roster or any commits.
Also, I don't think G Lambert makes it in the NFL, at least not as a starter. B Ramsey has more potential (arm strength) but I doubt he makes it as well. Hutson Mason also tried out and got turned down, but we all knew that wasn't going to happen.

Murray is the best QB to play in the SEC in the last 10 years at least, imo. He is only an NFL backup because of size.
Cam was obviously effective, winning a title and Heisman, but he did it more with athletic ability than true QB skills in college.

Lol wait what
A couple dudes that have far more impressive stats and hardware to back it up would disagree with this asinine statement.
Closet UGA fan?
