Cam Newton and Jameis Winston are training with quarterback guru George Whitfield Jr. out in California this offseason.

Whitfield is known as a quarterback whisperer of sorts and is one of the most sought after coaches not directly involved with an NFL franchise.

The photo has drummed up rumors that Newton has taken Winston under his arm and is mentoring him prior to the beginning of his NFL career.

The relationship is an interesting one, with Winston likely being the number one pick, as Newton was, and both quarterbacks having character issues coming out of college.

Like Winston, Newton was accused of stealing during his time at his university, but his other wrongdoings were never more than accusations of taking illegal benefits while being a “scholar-athlete.”

 

 

For what it's worth...

What I take from this is happiness that Cam is spending some time with Whitfield Jr. this offseason! He is an excellent QB coach and really helped Cam before the draft

 

I think Cam knows Winston will probably be playing for Tampa next year and is getting us some early scouting material...

Please God no....

Cam, you don't need to hang around guys like Jamis...or Al Sharpton. Bad for your image man!

Yeah because a guy who was studying to be a doctor and got accepted to Stanford is a terrible guy to pick their football brains. I'm glad. Hopefully cam is learning as much from jameis as jameis is learning from cam.

i actually think this is a pretty cool thing for cam to do. he's dealt with a lot of the stuff winston's going to deal with and he'll be able to offer advice to help him keep his head straight on the field and off.

 

unless he gets drafted by the bucs, in which case i hope cam gets him to snort a line on a stripper's ass and takes a picture and sends it to gordell

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
