I love the interview with Moose.It totally supports what I have been saying which that Cam was widely criticized when he came into this league.  He was not considered worth the number 1 pick by many. It has to be gratifying to watch everyone change their tune and have to eat crow. Cam is going to crown this season with a win in the Super Bowl and do in the NFL what he did in college. Win it al and take a decent offense and make them great. Will his team to victory with his athleticism and leadership. People who argue that Cam was the consensus pick in the draft need to hear Moose tell it like it was. The way I remember it  too, and not some revisionist history.

As I watched that I was thinking to myself, Why dont they have smart people like Moose on ESPN? He is an analyst. I hope he gets a lot more air time because he was spot on with everything he said including the part about being one of the only ones to put his word down on Cam.

 

I remember him arguing with Frank Garcia, Frank saying he didnt think Cam was gonna do anything in this league. In fact, pretty much all of WFNZ made a point to try and get as many doubters on the air as possible to stir up controversy. If they hadnt done that then maybe Cam would do more interviews with them.

 

Man they lost a lot of air time and marketing dollars by screwing that up. A couple of big interviews with Cam would get huge air time right now. Thats their system though, Chip Kelly style. WFNZ thinks its ok to just commit to being douchebags.

 

Moose decided to never start that show with Frank because thats what the WFNZ guys are all about. They wont inform you about how the offense works are give you details about the teams intricacies. Just that there was a disagreement or a fight or someone said we suck.

lol, Breaking Loose with Frank but woops no Moose. It couldve been awesome and the ratings couldve been huge. . . but WFNZ went with "Lets continue to be trolls".

Good to know I"m still in your head, on your mind. 

Take a listen to this audio from 12:40-14:50.

From 12:40 it illustrates your thinking somewhat (Doug Farrar felt Cam would go #1 in Feb of 2011, then Gabbert signs with CAA, so there's a big media push with Gabbert, and Farrar thinks Gabbert may go #1 over Newton). Of course, you didn't think Newton would ever go #2 as far deep as Feb 2011 in the first place (hehe)....We get that. 

Don't worry. All the Nolan Nolan Nawrocki, Running QB, Character issue's stuff's brought up as well. You know, the stuff you believed why 'many thought he was such an awful pick', such as the guys on WFNZ, Charlotte and in the media. LOL

From 14:20: The record is set straight regarding Cam and NFL people vs stereotypes and what's was said in the media. The writer specifically addresses, and debunks what you're saying here. And he was a believer, contributor of it somewhat; as you will see.

This takes place Feb 2011 as well, loooooooong before the draft (and 2015-16).

I will not quote the dialogue, cause I wanna make sure/see if you listened.

So please lets end the subject, and veiled passive aggressive outburst once and for all. We'll just agree to disagree, unless you have some sort of an agenda.

Ironically, your last contention was regarding Cam's rookie year (and how he couldn't throw, read defenses, and just wasn't that good a Rookie). So you lost that one, now you continue to expand things, and move the goal post where you feel you have more support.

BTW: Stay focused and please listen to that audio from 12:40-14:50 with a cogent, thoughtful response, if you do.

      Umm yeah. When did he get it done at the right time? I seem to remember a 4-6 finish and needing Atlanta to win our way into the playoffs but whatever.

      I mean....no lies detected. See above. We have traded a fortune to draft a guy #1 overall that people have lowered standards for to the point that not playing like Jimmy Clausen and looking like a poor man's Kyle Allen occasionally is worthy of a contract extension making him one of the highest paid QB's in the league. That is cope on steroids.

      summary: "let's talk about your draft, what did you think about Freeling" Dan:   guys with a huge upside, can come in and compete to start.  High ceiling "he does what for your offense?" Dan:   it's hard to find left tackles, guys that big and athletic.  We have Icky coming off an injury, we signed Walker, I believe your offensive line can never be too strong.  If we're going to win the game, it's gotta be up front on both sides of the ball, so we make a point of emphasis on making both sides of the front as strong as possible. "how many mocks did you see Monro falling to you." Not many times, left tackles are gonna go a lot earlier than when we took him.  We want to add the best player, in free agency or the draft"  that's our philosophy, to get the best players possible. "Hunter and Brazzell." Dan:  we followed the board.  Lee we felt very highly of him , super strong.  Brazzel so flexible and loose, can open the verticle.  Will Lee we held in high regard. "you take a look at your receiver room, Coker, my goodness, your offensive rookie of the year in Tet.  Lost Rico, but there is Jonathan Brooks. " Brooks coming off two knee injuries, he worked his way back, looking great, fully healthy, will help in pass and run game.  Icky, not sure when he's coming back but we're excited about both "plan on extending Bryce" we'll keep talking, will keep internally.  We believe in him, has such a great grasp of Canales and offense, has improved every year. "he's clearly come back from the benching, the arrow is trending up, where does he feel" Bryce knows where we stand with him, when and if a deal gets done, he knows we feel great with him, we'll get something done at the right time. "if this a prove it situation?" everyone in the building has to prove it, has to earn it. Tmac was everything we wanted, his work ethic, he's so big and talented, but he puts the work in, and is a great teammate. "your level of expectation, the building's level of expectation for 2026 "our goal is to win the division every year, we know we have to earn it.  we have to put the work in every day, proving it on the practice field, and our  guys know that." "schedule" we haven't opened at home in 2 or 3 years.  We love prime time games, hope we get some "
