Wuerffel - best QB. Not the best physical gifts but uncanny ability to find receivers, know outlets, put the ball in the right spot, pre-snap reads. LSU, Auburn, FSU, Vols, and a few others put some excellent defenses together when Wuerffel was in school and he shredded all of them more than once.

Tebow - force of will, he could move mountains.

Sam Bradford - best drop back passer ever. Remarkably accurate, made all the throws. Not so much the leader but extremely gifted in passing.

Newton - step below Bradford in throwing, stronger arm than Tebow but not always as accurate. Not as tough as Tebow but physically gifted and difficult to stop and could still take over a game. Auburn wins 2010 title with Tebow but I don't think UF wins 2008 title with Newton. Tebow was a difference maker. Newton could not have powered through that 2008 Bama defense in the 4th quarter like Tebow.

Nah

Tebow's titles were built largely around dynamic backs, Percy Harvin being impossible to defend and good defenses. He was a great leader, but he wasn't the dynamic playmaker Cam was. Defenses couldn't key on him because he could hand the ball to any number of future NFL players who ran 4.3-4.4 40s from all directions.

Auburn said "we're gonna run Cam between the tackles 15-20 times and he's gonna get 200 yards doing it". Then he did it. Over and over again.

Look at that long TD run he had against LSU and ask yourself if Tebow could do that? Hell no, he didn't have that gear.

Cam Newton brought Auburn back from 24 down AT Bama. He ran for 217 yards against LSU.

Absurd. The guy was accurate because he threw 20 screen passes a game.
