CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) Cam Newton downplayed the criticism he received last week from Panthers teammate Steve Smith, saying he and his Pro Bowl receiver are still ``on good terms.''

Smith told reporters he chided Newton on the sideline last Thursday night for sulking during the closing minutes of Carolina's 36-7 blowout loss to the Giants.

Newton says he didn't read anything into that, saying he views the 12-year veteran receiver as ``a big brother'' who's always giving him advice on football and life.

Newton believes it's ``bogus'' to single out one instance of Smith offering advice to him and make it a big deal.

Newton says ``Steve Smith talks to me every day.''

Smith says in hindsight he probably should have kept what he said to Newton between the two of them.

So we are completely humiliated on Thursday night and people really think Cam is worried about the media headlines.. Guarantee his concerns are making sure that doesn't happen Sunday.

Smith's comments were spot on, just really wasn't anybody not collecting a pay check from the Carolina Panthers business.

They are good for each other. Cam resurrects his career in exchange Smitty helps make sure the boy becomes the man.

I sometimes cannot believe how extremely arrogant some of you Panthers fans are. Smitty turning Cam into a man can't be for real seeing that Smitty is still quite immature himself...Except with some of you. Having fits of rage isn't my idea of maturity.

So, going forward you will be giving Smitty credit for turning Cam into a man because him sitting on a sideline with a towel over his head really bothered you, right?

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.

      Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.

      Best part is if we draft him, we can also use him as our fourth and one QB sneaker
