Newton Shows True Colors.


Garnet Man

Recommended Posts

The whole Cam Newton saga in relation to Auburn football left a lot of real questions marks about Newton and his family's character and integrity IMO.

But as a rookie last year for the Panthers...he played solidly if not spectacularly at times...and appeared to try to say the right things most of the time.

But today...when he inferred it was the coaches fault for the way this team has gone in recent games it appears the real Cam Newton has surfaced again. Newton has no one to blame but himself for the last 3 losses. In the loss against Atlanta if he just holds onto the football, the Falcons never get the ball back and the game is over. In the loss to Seattle before the bye...if he could throw a 10 yard pass to wide open receiver in the end zone instead of into the ground in front of him, they would have beaten Seattle.

Then today...if he doesn't throw the interception in the first half in the end zone...they would have had a better chance to win as well.

He needs to learn just when to man up...take the blame...and then when to keep his mouth shut.

He needs to keep his comments inside the locker room...not out in the public.

What comments are you talking about dumbass??

Would you prefer him to yell get the fuck off my field like Matt Ryan??

    • This is gonna be longest six weeks ever 
    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
