Cam on NBC Sports' The Crossover Tonight


TylerDurden

Recommended Posts

I know last year Cam didn't stop working out/film study until after the superbowl but this is a really smart PR move by him. Even though the season is pretty much over, more people care about football right before the superbowl than at any other time. With Cam getting his name, face and interactions with interviewers and radio hosts out there right now, he's exposing himself to more people than ever just due to the timing. Since he isn't coming directly of a loss or a cold streak, he really isn't able to be attacked by the media the way they normally strike at him.

Also since Cam is generally fairly media shy for being an ultra talented quarterback, giving a couple hosts and reporters the interviews they want will go a long way in earning defenders down the road.

OK, here's the deal on Cam's appearance on the Crossover show.

Nice outro when they went to commercial before Cam came on (nice, big, colorful, home whites action shots, with the Superman dominating the screen on fade out). So it was a nice build up to him coming up next. Male and female host on fun type show, with all parties standing.

When they came back from commercial to introduce Cam, the Male host called Cam "The great Cam Newton", "Rookie of the year", while introducing him. That was nice, as Cam did a playful, humorous Usain Lightning Bolt pose, followed by a muscle pose in his dark colored nylon warm up top, with dark blue jeans and sneakers.

Rookie of the year is who?? The dude chose Luck. The young lady chose RG3. Cam chose RG3 for rookie of the year. When asked why, Cam joked "Cause Luck broke my rookie record". LOL

Best Superbowl finish: Cam was asked by the young lady "when were you born (she wanted to make sure he'd give her answer)", and he smiled, delayed and said "1989" as his DOB. Forgot what Superbowl he chose. Ok, he chose Titans/Rams Superbowl. Thanks UNcrules2187

Asked best TD celebration, Kaepernick or Victor Cruz? Cam chose Colin (you got the feeling, this was the celebration Cam would do, Lol). Nonetheless, Cam thought Cruz took the dance/celebration to another level, as Cam did a little Salsa dance of his own when asked. He actually looked like he was running on the treadmill to be honest. LOL

When asked about the season and leader ship criticism he took, blah blah blah (and did the Steve Smith Convo helped): Cam said, "it's the life we live in, and it's something I learned from". Basically, he treated it like 'hey, no biggie, it comes with the territory, and I'm not hating'. He was very matter o fact and even keeled about it.

Cam was asked about Luck, Wilson and RG3's second year (and if Cam's attitude is "wait till you guys get to your second years)" by the young lady, and Cam said "No" and wished them well, with a smile.

He said "each player is different. Andrew Luck is different than Russell Wilson, and Russell Wilson is different than RG3, they all have their strengths and own game", and wished them well.

Then Cam showed his shoes he helped design, when asked (with a running/'The Thinker' type pose first), and the show abruptly faded out with Cam waiting for the male host to try his shoes on, after Cam gave a quick pitch on them. The young lady, starting looking/listening some where else. They seemed to be running out of time or were a little over.

It was very positive, and Cam showed more of his personality and playfulness on this interview, than some of his others, where he appeared to just run through them one stacked up interview after another. LOL

sounded like a good interview.

You guys have one of the coolest QBs in the league. He is pure charm and engaging.

Just a correction to FM's post, Cam chose the Titans/Rams SB because it was in Atlanta and he remembered it vividly. Also said the game was the perfect example of what people mean when they say football is "a game of inches."

Thanks, I added it.

It's funny, I had heard him say St Louis as an answer. But I couldn't figure out why Cam, the Atlantan, would pick St Louis (forgot about the "Greatest Show on Turf"). So I just guessed (as I indicated) he said San Francisco, who I did hear mentioned as one of the questions. Lol.

    • I honestly feel bad for Willis. I mean, good that he got a decent (NFL QB speaking) payday and will be set for life, but in terms of actually competing and providing he's a legit starter? The Dolphins are gonna carry $175M in dead cap this year and they have an out in Willis' contract after the 2027 season. This seems like the most obvious tank job in history with Willis signed as cover for it.
    • I was scrolling X (Twitter) and I came across this clip....If I shows up here I'd be shocked.  Anyway it was supposed to highlight the blocking ability of Antonio Williams.  All I noticed is how well Blake Miller moved on pulls and in space.  I'm thinking it should be Miller Time in Carolina. I think with half a season of coaching that either Miller or Iheanachor could end up at LT, specifically Iheanachor with his footwork and those super long arms.  He's raw, but that could be a good thing with those natural athletic gifts.   https://x.com/NFL_DF/status/2033992963659796861?s=20
    • I am using Kelce more as an example of what people think you get with a 1st round TE.    3 f the top 4 yardage guys of all time are 1st rounders. I think. But realize these would be the guys with super long careers, and/or top QBs throwing to them. We don’t have a top QB.    And there have been Plenty of first round disappointments too. More of them than the all time leaders for sure.    We were treating Bryce as the ultimate ‘don’t fug it up’ game manager in order to get a few of those 8 wins. And to stay close in some losses.   1st round picks, starting in 2023 that have been used on a WR or on the QB? 2023 1 (qb) 2024 2 (1 & 32) (qb, wr) 2025 1 (wr) When does it stop?
