The NFL players voted on their top 100 and Cam Newton came out on top. I would think that the players themselves might at least have some credibility with the overall NFL fanbase. I guess not looking at the outrage on Twitter over the ranking.

Who can watch those clips, most of which are recent and say Newton is afraid of getting hurt?
Regardless, all you Cam Haters just need to get over it. The players are entitled to their opinion. I leave you with any play of wonderment from #1 Cam Newton:
