Bleacher Report exclusive on Cam


top dawg

Recommended Posts

Here is an interview from the site that you love to hate, on the QB that you love to love, courtesy of Jason Cole.

Here is an excerpt:

B/R: The reason I ask is there are a lot of people who do advanced analytics on the game and say that you were one of the top quarterbacks from the pocket last year. And that's not necessarily your reputation. Is that a badge of honor to you?

Newton: I don't think it's necessarily a badge of honor. Pocket, no pocket, running, throwing, my job is to win football games, and I'm just trying to create some kind of way that's going to have the most impact on the most important stat of all, the win-loss column. I want to bring more juice to the win-loss side.

a quote that echoes a point made by many people on and off this site:

I was extremely excited for [Wilson's] recent contract that he got done, but I understand that his team is completely different than my team. His team, the thing that they ask him to do, is completely different than what my team asks me to do. And what I think he has done is mastered what his team has asked him to do.

People don't understand that you get drafted early, you get drafted to a team that needs your help instantly. Gone are the days when guys sit back and get a couple years, theAaron Rodgers approach. A guy would sit back a couple of years and they would know they are the future. Now it's like instant grits. You have to be able to come in and feed a whole multitude of people and get instant gratification. 

 

 

Cam, don't ever change... lol.

    • We have without question one of the worst QB rooms in the league and your key concern is people having the audacity to be talking about it lol.
    • I saw this list crossing the screen waiting for any Panther.  Chubba, JC Horn and Hunt.  It was a crime to see so many that were not as good as these three.  ESPN is garbage anyhow.
    • Bingo!  We are on the same page.  Our scouting department was average under Hurney, but at least we hit hit it out of the park with our first rounders.  Our scouting department under Tepper's reign with his revolving doors of HCs and GMs has sucked because the scouts largely stay in place.  One or two may change every few years, but the core philosophy stays in place and I believe that to be heavily RAS influenced.    Looking the part of a football player (physical/athletic measurables) vastly outweighs putting on the tape and deep diving into his stats with our scouting department. Until we change that mindset, this team is doomed. Again, how many of us Huddlers (none of us are professional scouts) wanted McConkey over Legette? Yet, we went with XL.  Why?  RAS score, pure and simple.  If you put on the tape and look at the numbers without taking RAS into account, McConkey was the clear choice.
