Cam Newton, his parents, Derek Anderson, and Joe Webb surprised the Roaring Riot crowd at our holiday party last night.

He gave a (funny) speech saying how much he and the Panthers appreciate the Roaring Riots support and influence on the growth of the fanbase. Said how the team used to have to "spot Panther fans" at away games. 

Jeremy has a video here

 

He very graciously went around the whole place, saying whats up to everyone he could, taking selfies with them, and signing autographs. He found Braylon obviously, who didn't know Cam was coming, and gave him his Santa hat and fox tail, much to Braylons excitement.

He picked up the tab too.

Really cool of all of them to stop by - everyone loved it.

 

Here's some not-so-great photos.

You know that all of us out-of-town Rioters are insanely jealous, right?

(and also proud that the in-town Rioters righteously represented)

I hope you see this as the door opening to many more opportunities with Cam and not just a one time event you missed out on. Because it is just the beginning  ;)

He really loves the fans, and loves playing here.

Could you, in a million years, ever imagine Brady or Manning doing anything like this?

Hearing all the locker room talk, the interviews, etc.... you know that this year's team is special. It's laying the groundwork for future seasons where Carolina is where other players WANT to come to play, to be a part of the team/the city. Where they will willingly take appropriate contract adjustments in order to stay here. Play their entire careers here.

Winning begets more winning.  Positive attitudes begets more positivity.

Players in the draft already have their NFL dream made... but how many are *wishing* to play for the Falcons (or insert other dreadful team's name here)?   To have an opportunity to play with Cam, with Luke, for Ron (and the rest of the team...)..... I could go on.

Cam is setting the perfect example of what it means to give back to the fans, and the fanbase is giving it back to the team in dividends.  And the rest of the team is following.  

That's what a true leader does. Yesterday cemented that - give that man the MVP already.

This is so awesome!  I wish I could stay up past 8pm most night lol!

Man, this really shows just how special a person Cam is.  He has completely embraced his role not only as a starting NFL QB, but as a shining beacon of awesomeness.  

Man, I'm so GLAD we drafted Cam...how many of us were on the fence...LOL =)

What I love about Cam is he doesn't do stuff like that for the money/attention/media exposure etc etc, he does it because he genuinely wants to be there. You hear in other cases about the big divide between athletes and the general public, I dont think anyone does more to be more accessible than Cam. The ultimate irony of "Tennessee Mom" bashing him for not being a role model is that really, Cam Newton is the absolute role model in quite possibly all of sports, he's certainly up there anyway at the moment.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By Navy_football · Posted

      It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly.

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      By Navy_football · Posted

      If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
