Cam Newton, a former NFL quarterback recently challenged LeBron James’ Madden skills after Anthony Davis hyped up James’ abilities. Newton disputed James’ skills on his podcast, “4th & 1 with Cam Newton,” saying that using top teams in Madden doesn’t make someone a good player.
He believes that using top teams, like the Kansas City Chiefs with Patrick Mahomes, is a cheat code and doesn’t require a deep understanding of football schematics.
Big cap. You’re not considered the best if you’re playing with the best teams … A lot of these gamers are getting bailed out by having the best player. If you’re playing with Patrick Mahomes in Madden, that’s a cheat code.
Cam Newton said on his podcast, “4th & 1 with Cam Newton”
