Why is Alex Smith Jealous of Cam Newton?

For the last week or so since Mr. Smith made his comments about Cam, I've been wondering why.

Why would you attack another QB. Especially a rookie QB. Then I thought; why would a large market QB attack a QB from a small market like Charlotte.

Then a tv commercial flashed across the screen, it was Cam doing a Gatorade 5th quarter commercial. A couple of minutes later, a Cam Under Armour commercial.

So I said let me do a little research and see what kind of endorsement deals Alex Smith has, maybe that was the reason for the jealousy.

Then I found this

On a serious note my Panther brethren, I think the reason he took the shot at Cam is that, both being #1 draft picks, Cam came out of Auburn with an UnderArmour deal, and literally became the face of the franchise and the NFL; then his so called pouting with a Gatorade towel leads to another endorsement deal. These are national campaigns, I couldn't find in a youtube search any commercials with Alex Smith. Cam is probably making more with endorsements then Smith makes in salary. I think their is a strong jealously argument at play here.

I think that is why he said what he said...

Smith doesn't have tiny hands at all... His are pretty average, bigger than Jimmy's... Smith's are supposedly 9 3/8ths, Cam's are 9 7/8ths.

fwiw, Aaron Rodgers has 9 3/8ths, and Vick clocks in at 8 1/2, so...

Odd that you talk so much about a mans hands...

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.

      I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.

      Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
