Normans Take on Cam

Recommended Posts

On why Panthers QB Cam Newton is able to ‘get under people’s skin’:

“Because he’s 6-5, 260 and can do whatever he wants."

On Newton hitting ‘The Dab’ last week:

“[Laughter] He said he was gonna Dab on ‘em , and he Dabbed on ‘em. It was one of those things where, hey, shoot, like I said, 6-5, 260, man, keep him out of the end zone if you don’t want him to Dab on you. So that’s pretty much what he did and I’m pretty sure he’s going to do it again whenever he touches that end zone. It’s your job to stop him. We’ve got his back and we’re behind him. Shoot, if I get mine, I’m going to Dab on ‘em too.” 

-Taken from interview transcript. After reading the monotonous poo, I get to that after ten minutes and nearly fell out of my chair. 

It helps if you've watched Norman talk this season.

You mean Dab right? I think you missed the humor and went straight to the violence. While I condone an ass whooping after a bit of light reading on the extremeskins board, I think this was to lighten the tension a bit. 

Nope. I meant fight.

This whole team is going to be dabbing the rest of the year. I just thinks it's great the players are taking this as "Us vs. the world". 

I hope to see it after every TD, fumble recovery, interception, sack, etc.  Would be beyond awesome if this became a Panthers thing.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
