Cam Newton Interview Today


Lilsmitty09

Recommended Posts

Love it when people make statements out of unfounded rumors. Maybe he does want out, but no one that would know has said anything to that effect.

Unfounded rumors does not mean you ignore common sense. Let's see.

1. Cleaned out his locker

2. Sold his house

3. Skipped all but one player workout for a photo op

4. Didn't show up yesterday

5. Refuses to say on record he doesn't want to leave

6. Has made clear he wants a ring

7. Franchise has made clear they want fresh start with Ron/Cam

When did anyone need documented contradictary evidence disproving all of this to be taken credibly? All one needs to do is look at the optics of the situation to realize that if anyone will come close to paying for 89 he is long gone. It's the best thing for him and by far the best thing for the franchise. By a country mile.

1. Knew a lockout was coming

2. Went on record saying that he sold his house because it was way too big and didn't want to set that kind of example for his children.

3. Got injured last year playing flag football, maybe didn't want to risk something while not under league rules.

4. I'll be more worried if he doesn't show up sometime in the next few days.

5. Won't say on record because he honestly might not have decided yet.

6. Wants a ring, yet has been speculated to want to go to San Diego or Baltimore? Neither of them has won a ring any time recently. Ask Lebron, leaving to a new "contender" doesn't mean poo. And the NFL is an easy league to go from worst to first in.

7. The organization has stated they want to talk with Steve and see where he is at and how he fits with their plan. I never heard anybody say we want a fresh start with Ron and Cam so bye Steve.

Maybe Smitty really does want to go. Hopefully he doesn't. But just because ESPN says something 1,000 times doesn't make it fact.

:yesnod:

My 13 yo daughter said "I wonder if he is willing to play receiver, he would definitely win jumps against most defensive backs." :lol:

The fact that your 13 year old daughter knows what a defensive back is makes me want to cry tears of joy. You raised her well papa.

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
    • He had heart surgery a while back he looks Fraile I hope he is okay
