Cam hangs up on Atlanta media... lol

Cam Newton fielded questions from the Atlanta media today via conference call. Apparently, they were not too happy with what they got from Cam. 

The transcript from the conference call reveals the level of questions asked.

My personal favorite....

Q: How did the Vikings take Kelvin Benjamin away from the offense?

A: “Do you really think I’m going to tell you that?”

Q: How do you all plan to get Kelvin Benjamin going against the Falcons?

A: “Throw it to him.”

I'm sure the media wasn't doing anything to deserve attitude.  Of course, we now live in a world where everyone is owed something.  Reporters can say and do whatever and Cam has to politely take it or get blasted. 

Probably a lot of "talk about X Cam". Then we can pull out the one phrase to meet our planned narrative we already have written

In fairness, if hometown guys ask him the same question about dealing with a loss.....he gives them the same treatment.  He has been saying it for a half decade and appears done. He isn't a good loser and he is content with that

Haha. I usually don't bother with player press conferences, but no way in hell does any player answer those questions about strategies. The hat question was the only interesting one.

Soooo... what is your plan in getting Kelvin back in the game this week? 

 

GTFO

    • I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.
    • I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
