Cam on WFNZ - links (Also DB coach Steve Wilks)

[KB_fan]

@TheWiz has already given a nice llve recap of parts of Cam's interview today on WFNZ

But here are the links for those who want to listen to the full thing themselves.

Here's a 28 minute stand-alone segment:  http://wfnz.com/2016/06/09/cam-newton-talks-super-bowl-panthers-fans-and-dab-retirement/

This includes exceprts of both part 1 & part 2 of his interview.

 

Update:  DB coach Steve Wilks was also on WFNZ this morning.  See the next comment for the time stamp & details.

 

A few highlights:

• Cam calls Dave "the GodFather of the draft"!!!  Love it.  Calls the rookie corners "Bright, smart, athletic, Carolina Panther guys.... you can't always say that about every draft pick"

 

• His goals:  "Each week I want to be 1-0, starting with Sept. 8th"

 

• The power of team is always greater than the power of talent.

 

 

There are also two other longer (41 minute links) for hours two and three of the show.

In a few minutes, I'll post an update with the timestamps for the full Cam interview, and the Steve Wilks interview.

Having listened to the various podcasts, I think the 28 minute stand-alone link I posted above gives you the entire Cam interview, so that's probably the best link to use,  but here are the timestamp details from the longer show segments:

 

Cam Part 1:  BEGINS at 28:00 minutes and continues to the end of the segment.

Steve Wilks & Cam Part 2: 

http://wfnz.com/2016/06/09/mac-attack-steve-wilks-and-cam-newton-part-2/

 

Steve Wilks:  begins at 5:45 -  20:20

here are some highlights

• What's it like coaching in your home town?  It's a little surreal.  Can't wait to bring a championship to CLT.
• What's it like to have to coach 3 rookies.  Do you like having such a challenge?   He looks forward to it.  Look at what we've done over the years.  There's been a revolving door... there was one year we didn't draft anyone.... so getting the chance to develop guys is nice.  Pressure, there's no pressure.
• Bradberry:  very mature.  quiet.  smart player.  locked in and focused in meetings and on field.  Already see improvement.  Love his competitive nature.  He's physical.  Can run.  good man-to-man skills at line of scrimmage.
• Seeing improvement of all the guys.  Worley had a red-zone interception on Cam yesterday.
• What about Nickel?  Colin, Shaq (big Nickel), Sanchez, Bene, are all in the mix.  It will depend on the package scheme / situation.   Sounds like Bene will be getting a lot of inside reps once he's fully cleared.
• Talks about Shaq's role.  Got to find ways to get him on the field a lot more... We need to be smart as coaches game to game, based on the scheme and who we're playing.
• We wanted Josh back, but excited for the opportunity he has.  What a great contract for him.   Expects him to continue to play well in Washington.  Yes, he benefited from our system, but he's a great player, can flourish outside the system too.
• Re: safeties:  right now Tre Boston & Kurt Coleman are getting the most reps with the 1s "but lots can change in training camp."

 

Part 2 of Cam begins just after 27:00

Thanks

[IGSaint]

KB_fan you continue to do unsung work. Thank you for the summaries. 

[vorbis]

important to mention that Wilks mentioned on a couple occasions that Panthers might do a little more man-to-man this year versus previous years. talked about the man-to-man abilities of the rookie corners.

Is @KB_fan the MVP of the Huddle? Gets my vote.

I'm not hoping for McDermott to leave specifically however I just don't want to lose Wilks even more.
