| Newton is a very efficient passer. He has outstanding size and a very strong arm, almost too strong at times. He is very poised and makes good decisions. Newton also gives you that threat to run. He can make all the throws in the pocket or on the move. He has a quick release, but needs to fine tune it mechanically. He seems to have a little hitch at times. He seems to get better as he gets more reps. - Bob Lichtenfels |
