Donkey Kong Suh


Mr. Scot

Cam Newton's repeated reference to Ndamukong Suh as "Donkey Kong Suh" in today's press conference is getting national coverage. 

 

ESPN actually seemed to think it was pretty funny. 

 

PFT, not so much.

 

Panthers quarterback Cam Newton had one of the strangest press conferences in NFL history today.

For some reason, Newton refused to answer any questions about anything that any reporters asked him. That’s not particularly unusual; players frequently decline to talk to the press for one reason or another.

But instead of simply declining to answer, Newton instead answered every question by giving the same answer over and over again. And that answer was a statement about how his focus is on Sunday’s game against the Lions and defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh, whom Newton calls “Donkey Kong Suh.”

“My main focus right now is focusing on the Detroit Lions. I think I got my hands full trying to find ways to stay protected by Donkey Kong Suh and my fellow Auburn teammate Nick Fairley,” Newton said, over and over again.

They finish by asking whether it was meant as an insult or not, and then close with this...

 

We could ask Newton, but he probably wouldn’t answer, other than to say his main focus right now is the Detroit Lions.

    • Yep, you're right. I forgot about that. Fly was banged up, but RBA put him on the ice for a reason, too. Could have put KK out there, but there was a purpose for Deslauriers on the ice.
    • I wasn’t speaking of Metchie in the context that I referenced Renfro  I couldn’t, he hasn’t played a snap for us    My Metchie esteem level is just not real high. As an NFL WR.  I am no expert on WRs it’s just what I think based on how it has gone for him as a pro  If he can’t catch on here with his old buddy then who is left? I am not wishing him any misfortune and hope he does well because that means we stole some talent; basically for free to boot.           
    • No one said it would be a permanent thing.  The best thing about having more than two good corners is that you can play them in different position which changes how a QB sees the play unfolding.  You put question marks on a QB you had a second or so of decision making and gives our improved (hopefully) DL a chance to sack him.  If Thornton and Lee turn out to be studs you have 4 good CBs that can be used all over the defense.  That's a good thing.  If you are looking at it just based on salary it is kind of weak take.
