F’ing David Newton

Every question asked was stupid or common sense.

"do you like run blocking" (no dummy, but it's my job),

"how would it feel to be 3-0 at home" (ummm better than 2-1),

"can you use Diggs aggression against him" (ummmm like in what way, like put a banana peel on the field, hope he doesn't see it and slips on it?).

And then obviously Newton's lack of knowledge XL's father passing. 

Hard to believe there are journalism schools out there, and this is what they produce.

Have you watched mainstream media? They editorialize nowadays, they don’t impartially report anymore. 
I was a Journalism minor in school, the traditional role has been scuttled. They don’t teach that anymore as far as I can tell.

His job is to cover the Panthers. It's not surprising he didn't know because he sucks at his job but he should've known

I think most people in and out of media who are remotely following the team know the history with XL's parents and there is no excuse.  Kind of what you expect from Newton but its still cringe.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
