Its not the smartest thing you could do. But if someone would have told me a couple of years ago that I could have a QB with Smittys heart :eek::party:

This is part of what makes Smitty and Cam great and if you take it out of them you will make poo.

So yes its dum but this is how he his and this drive is what is gonna make him a fantastic NFL player like Smith. Hell we forgave Smitty for punching two guys from out own team, lets not kill Cam for a simple fug you.

On a serious note, I know you remember Jake Delhomme. He was DEFINITELY a flame on the field; sadly his play couldn't match his passion towards the end of his career.

I was thinking and thought...wait just b/c he's a journalist doesn't mean he hears everything correctly, Cam may have dropped the F bomb but maybe not have said F.U. (which I think is absolutely unacceptable in that context. (I think F.U. is the worst thing you can say to someone)) Luckily another journalist refuted that statement.

That's not how I heard it, no. RT @Pantherfan81: @Eric_Edholm This happened?: http://t.co/dKo8i5im Confirm or deny please.

Eric Edholm's take:

Sorry, just catching up with Twitter, was on deadline. Basically Olsen tried to console Newton, saying he gave team a chance to win. CONT'D

CONT'D And Newton wasn't having any of it. He brushed off Olsen and said a word I can't type. Just frustration playing out, kid HATES losing

That's not how I heard it, no. RT @Pantherfan81: @Eric_Edholm This happened?: http://t.co/dKo8i5im Confirm or deny please.

And there's another take. Glad he answered me :)

QB is a different position than WR. It isn't fair but it is true.

This is a non-story if anyone else does it other than Cam. Not because of a perceived hate on Cam, but because he is the QB.

Again, it isn't fair but it is the life of a starting NFL QB.

Yeah, I didn't think so. Stupid twitter makes the propagation of BS too easy.

Good I hope he didn't say f you to Olsen. I have no problem with the word itself or saying it to a ref or an opponent but not a guy who's fighting alongside of you for the exact same thing....happy to hear that may not have been how it went down....

I bet he did say it and yeah he shouldn't have, but Olsen shouldn't have been smiling telling him "good game" either. Bad on both men but he apologized so it's over. Move on.

If he did then I lost a little respect for CAM. Leaders don't do that to their teammates. I have played and coached at high levels and good game is just a phrase that guys say to each other for lack of a better phrase. What Olsen should off said was good game except for that pass you forced into double coverage that was a pick 6 and ended up being the difference in the game. Other than that good game.

Sadly, there are reporters who will do things because they feel they can get a good headline the next day. Especially if it's someone like Cam, who is already a media lighten-rod.

JPerson showed the difference between that guy and professional reporters. Not for nothing, reporters don't want to be banned from team's locker-rooms because of their immature peers. There is a code in every team locker-room, don't kid urself.

I'm sure J Person wouldn't have even mentioned it or if he did, mentioned it as Cam being a bit testy; not repeating what Cam said. I guess this reporter wanted a "Peter King, Entertainer/Icon" moment.

I have played and at high levels as well and I would tell you this happens often. A couple of pages back I gave an example of doing it myself.

I am not excusing Cam but that is the nature of competitive athletes. My basketball teams got into fist fights just playing pick up.

We also won because of that spirit. A lot.

As for the bold printed part. If you said that to me after a tough loss you would be on the injured reserve by the end of your sentence. It also proves that you are talking out of both sides of your ass.

"I lost respect for Cam... but Greg shoulda told him good game but it is your fault we lost" :lol:

      Derrick Brown appreciation thread.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.

      Joe Person: Ickey is expected to be extended, Mays is someone we want to keep long term, TE, LB and OLB are our biggest needs heading into the offseason

      How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.

      I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
