Players adored Marty Hurney in 2010 too they gushed about him like he was part of the family. It took us years to flush that mentality out of the locker room and in the process our franchise quarterback was dragged through the mud for being a sore loser.

Everyone loved Marty.  Nice guy that paid people.

Doesn't change that fact that he is losing and knocking fans.

Fields came out apologized for it though.   Claimed a little bit of the Cam Newton defense that he is a poor loser and was rushed in front of a microphone to speak to a bunch of reporters he had no interest in talking to in that moment.  So Fields is at least self aware his words weren't good.  Robbie don't give a fug.  I think Robbie is one foot out the door.  He probably wouldn't be here if he wouldn't of had to give money back.  Think he was ready to retire.

In other words, Fields spoke his true thoughts in the moment about fans booing and then walked it back after facing backlash.  Realizing "his words weren't good" is irrelevant, it's about this type of dismissive mentality towards fans.

So much for the Cam comparisons.

I mean, in fairness, Fields really didn't walk back much.   He stuck with his core thought.  It was just worded poorly initially. 

Fields is young.  Fields hates to lose.  Fields hasn't lost much until he got to Chicago.  And he needs more time in front of a mic too.

For someone who hates it he's doing a lot of it....and he is doing his part to ensure it.  The jury is still out on whether we'd be in any better spot if he was our choice last year.  The evidence to date doesn't help the case.  We'll see.

I actually watched the Robby Anderson interview on YouTube. I didn’t take it as bad as this thread is portraying. He actually complimented the fan base more than he called them out, but the tweet preferred the latter.

This is always the case with Robbie, & ppl wonder why there's so much pr speak

Cam hated to lose.  He lost a lot at first too. 

Fields isn't in a position where he is going to have any success.  He has no offensive talent and is now on his second offense already in year 2.

Cam threw for 4000 yards his rookie season.

There's no comparison.

I mean, it's also apples and oranges.  You are making too much of the fact Cam's name was spoken. 

Cam also had several pro bowlers on the OL his rookie year, two stud RBs in the backfield, two stud TEs in Olsen and Shockey and a HOF WR.   And all those studs around him were veteran studs. 

Fields wasn't drafted into a place where you he was going to see success.  As a team or individually.  Where you get drafted matters. 

Trevor Lawarence wouldn't of looked the same if he found himself in Cam Newton's scenario vs where he found himself in Jacksonville with Urban and no talent.

Cam is just a different cat altogether he made some serious magic with very mediocre ingredients. I remember that preseason game against the Bengals. He put the league on notice right then and there. Sigh....

I'm a Cam stan.  But Cam didn't land in a bad spot his rookie year.  He landed in a great spot his rookie year if you look at the talent that was around him.   Not many high draft pick rookies get that year 1.   And on top of that, as much as we like to bash the coaches, they were willing from day 1 to mold things around Cam and not trying to put a square peg in a round hole.

Receiving wise he had weapons in 89 Olsen and Shockey and he had Gross (and a young R Kalil) but that was about it. As far as the build around him he was the lone man standing from the entire draft the year we selected him that's pretty damn ugly you should at least get one other starter out of a whole draft. For the most part the Panthers got by on the save me Cam formula we would have had a Lombardi trophy if they had not squandered so many chances to properly build a line around him in his prime. But it's the past now.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      I had started typing my post hours ago and didn’t finish it and just came back to finish it, posted it, then saw yours and saw we were pretty much saying the same thing - even the games that stick out to us most.  I don’t think a lot of people remember that SF playoff game, but I felt like I had just got mugged in broad daylight.  I remember them calling Mitchell for unnecessary roughness, and then I remember watching Boldin take a super late cheap shot, dead in front of the ref and then showing him watching the whole thing in replay…  the refs let them have a fuging field day and didn’t do jack poo, but if we so much as breathed the wrong way it was fuging 15 yards.  Each team playing under two completely different sets of rules.  poo hurt.  I was enraged.  I’ve never went back to watch either that game or SB50 and never will.  fuging robbery.

      I’ve said it a million times since, but it’s impossible to keep them from affecting the game.  In SB50, they literally took the game from us, and they did it early.  Cotchery’s no-catch?  The miraculous amount of times we converted for a first down only to have it suddenly called back make it a 3rd down and 15+ against the best defense in the league that specialized in rushing the passer and man coverage on the back end?  And you do that enough times, you kill the morale and confidence of the team you’re doing it against.  It’s telling the one team “you can do whatever with impunity” and the other “you can’t do whatever they’re allowed to do.”  It changes the aggression level.  It essentially neuters one team and allows the other to do whatever the fug they want.  Imagine you call the police for help and they get there and tell you to sit still while the other party beats the poo out of you and you can’t defend yourself.  That’s what the officials do.  There is no way to avoid them affecting the game.  And more often than not, it’s the most subjective calls they use to do so.  Even in SB50…  you saw the Broncos commit more egregious penalties than anything we did, and barely any of it was called.  Their OL was holding all fuging game and the refs did nothing.  We already had our work cut out for us against two future HOF edge rushers and the refs played to their advantage with that.  From what I remember, both Oher and Remmers were called for holding at various times and their hands were in the INSIDE of the defender.  It was garbage, but all by design. Also, if there is any video of it anywhere, go look at what the refs did against us back in 2013 against SF.  The fix was in there too.  They stepped in early and often and ensured we knew we were not allowed to play with the same aggression or intensity SF was.  It was disgusting as well. at this point, I hope Vince McMahon, errr, I mean Goodell just finally scripts us to win it, because this poo is not won via competition or off merit.

      You can go back to the New York Knicks somehow getting Patrick Ewing.  I saw a story where they place the New York Knick card in the freezer right before the drawing.  It was simple.  Show everyone the cards are undetectable to the human eye.  All they had to do was grab the coldest card. IMO ever since Goodell took over the NFL it has been fishy.  Patriots winning the SB after 9/11, New Orleans after Katrina and Peyton Manning's going away gift against us. The terrible calls during that game were blatantly one sided.  New England should have been stripped of their first 3 SB when they were caught spying on the other team in their SB wins.  I think the evidence against the Patriots was so damning Goodell felt it could ruin football and they brushed it under the table.   In the 2004 SB, How did we go from practically no yards in the first Quarter to setting a record in the 3rd Qtr.  Dan Henning changes the game plan.  IMO probably the greatest half time adjustment of all time.
