Cam Newton: Self-proclaimed entertainer, icon

Get ready for the Cam-brigade to sweep in stating that it's just a tweet (or claiming you have to have arrogance in the NFL)...

That said, it's not much, but is brought to peoples attention simply because of what has proceeded this.

Again, it really isn't anything, but if I were him I wouldn't be touching any social media, interacting through anyone other than his agent (oh wait, it's his dad...) and only doing very controlled media interactions

Personally I don't care, but in this day in age, you ought to have the smarts to realize that you have to watch what you say. It doesn't matter what it is, you have to all times watch what you say and how you say it. He'll take his poo storm like a man...as he should. Still alot of time left to go.

Well, I hope he knows he gets paid to play football first and foremost. Does the comment itself scare me? not really. Does it bring his maturity into question, without a doubt. He has a lot to learn. Personally I was ok with the icon part, but entertainer? That is just a side effect of being great at football, same with being an icon and I do hope we don't pick someone just for attention, he isn't an icon or entertainer in the NFL.

    • I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.  
    • Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.  
    • The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
