D'Angelo Wlliams Sorta Bad Mouthing, Not Giving Cam Credit; A Bit Salty?

I know a lot of Panther fans like or dislike D'Angelo. But the guys a character (aka weird one) for sure.

I was surprised to catch him on the Boomer And Carton Show in NY-via San Fran and/the Superbowl-at 7:22 am EST this morning (He was on about 10-15 min, whence I caught it), while eating breakfast.

So after speaking about Pittsburgh, the Cincy playoff game/controversy, and the AFC; they asked him about Cam Newton.

First he say's: 'Well, it's the receivers. They've been in the system for a while; so the balls coming out of his hands on time. He doesn't have to wait on them. That's what I see'. Okay. That sounds fine. Right?

So after speaking about something else for a while, they came back to Cam.

First he downplays Cam, then says: 'Cam's only had one good year (talking about this year)'. So when Boomer says, what about his Rookie year. He had a phenomenal Rookie year. D'Angelo retorts and says 'yeah, but did we win'!?. I guess he forgot about Cam's 2013 when the team was 12-4 (mind you, how hard he fought last year to make the playoff's, even if D'Angelo wasn't there).

He says 'Peyton been it doing for a while. Cam hasn't'. He also earlier talked about how 'Cam could be a game manager, and the defense can carry that team (mind you all the high scoring games the teams been involved in, and the numbers Cam has put up)'. Later he admits, he only caught a few Panther games (and I'm sure he didn't watch them in their entirety, based of his latter comments). He says he's a Pittsburgh Steeler now, and not a former Panther (paraphrase) when asked to talk more about the Panthers.

He was very salty during the interview, with out being rude. Maybe it's just his personality? He even challenged the host-Carton that he didn't watch the Steelers (presumably cause he-D'Angelo was so good) when the co-host asked him if he was going to retire, instead of simply answering the question. He was being very passive aggressive there, and throughout the interview IMO. 

Unless it's just his personality: D'Angelo wasn't straight out hating. But Esiason, was literally begging for some positive or interesting tidbits on Cam (since he played with him-duh), and D'Angelo didn't bite. No real perspective or insight at all. Again; maybe it's his personality? Or maybe he felt he wasn't best utilized in the read option (or Cam and Stewart took yards away from his since Newton's arrival). Who knows!? And of course, he got cut by Dave Gettleman, etc.. I don't know.

It was nothing the national press would report. But it was surrrreee interesting (something Panther fans would notice, and/or see through), and a bit surreal.

Even Steve Smith has sounded better during recent interviews regarding Panther related questions (while Ole #89, had more to gripe about; had a better Panther career than D'Angeolo). After all, it is the Superbowl. And the Panthers and Cam Newton are in it. You're going to be asked. Go figure?

I think the Panthers could of handled DWill's Mom passing better and they realize that. However, I think DWill quit on this team a year or two ago. He go down on first contact. I think cutting him helped this offense.

 He lost something like 15#s after being cut. He looked like a different RB this year for Steelers. Sorry if your a DWill fan but I don't think much of him anymore. His interview just reinforces it.

      I think the same thing, they don’t have any better options especially since Christiansen is out for the year

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      Possibly playoff affectng news

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
