Narcissistic, ra-ra fake leader, ninth grade offense...a lot of these comments went beyond criticism and sounded like true hatred. They can all line up and suck Cam nutz.

And btw, great video, but at the very end, did we need the audio of Pennington? buzzkill

Auburn fan here.

You guys are now seeing what was very obvious to all of us Auburn fans. There are very few players that have "star" quality. Newton is one of them. By star quality, I mean that he improves under pressure and enjoys being in the limelight. Newton was under more pressure and received more scrutiny last year than any player in the history of college football, and his performance never suffered a bit.

Also, the notion that his teammates hate him is completely LOL. He was the leader of Auburn's team the moment he stepped on campus, and it appears that he immediately is falling into that same role at Carolina. Newton dropped into Lebron mode a little too often during interviews, but he's hardly the first college superstar to make that mistake.

Anyone who believes that race was not a factor in the media's perception of Newton should compare the media's reaction to The Golden Calf of Bristol v. Newton. The media absolutely swung off of The Golden Calf of Bristol's nutsack every time he smiled, got fired up, etc. Newton's display of the same characteristics invariably was characterized as cockiness and a lack of respect for his opponents. It was and is ridiculous.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
