Great NFL AM Interview w/ Olsen

Recommended Posts

pretty much said the outside criticisms of Cam were flat out wrong. emphatically said he was the same guy he was when he first came here. And that people like to nitpick because of the kind of guy Cam is and the level of success he had previously. said Cam has not changed in the way he prepares, his leadership qualities and being a teammate.

 

said he loved playing for lovie smith.  Sad to see him in this division because he's a good coach but was excited about the opportunity to play against him 2 times a year.

 

said the something is happening in charlotte, a lot of buzz about this team. said this organization is top notch. players get treated professionally but also really well.

 

said he thought chud deserved more time in cleveland since it looked like they were setting up for the future this year.

And later on in another NFL segment Eric Davis picked his top 5 NFL teams:

5. NO

4. DEN

3. NE

2. SF

1. SEA

So, an ex-Panther gives no love to his former team, which went 3-1 against his "best" teams. That one being only a 4 point loss IIRC. BOGUS! Lost a lil respect for Davis there. Usually he's an alright commentator.

Great interview.  Thanks for the link. Love Greg.  Also, noticed when they were playing the clip of his TD catch last week....Cam threw a perfect pass...stepped in to the throw.  If he can do that, accuracy is no issue.  Also nice catch by Greg....that ball was hot!

Pretty much what you posted was what he said verbatim

But...Let's not forget the other guy got rid of NE and replaced them with the Panthers. Sometimes, you have to look past the negative and see the reality. The Panthers  have never been a chosen team but that doesn't mean they are not a viable team.

    • You absolutely can have hope. You can’t convert people though; making advocacy posts are kind of … not reading the room.   I had a small hope that he would be able to at least manage some games and that they could make it work in some kind of no fun to watch fashion.  But honestly I had 100% determined he was not NFL starter material, and I had conviction. So to root for him to marginally succeed goes against the best interest of the Panthers long term, according to my beliefs. I wanted him gone the minute he got here if I am honest.It was up to him to prove otherwise.  He has rarely shown me anything to think I was wrong on his ceiling.  He did show me some courage last year, standing in the pocket and stepping into his throw in the face of pressure - but that has gone somewhere. He made some nice throws last year in places too, but they invested in him on the level of the Atlanta game should be his norm. Good luck seeing that again on Sunday. Still, he did it once, so technically it could happen again. 
    • Damn that was a longer post than I intended, Maybe I should have started a new thread.
    • On that TD, he sure didn't get any help from Scott at FS! While we're pointing out Blue Chips...Horn has proven to be a lock-down, (dare I say)elite CB and DB is one of the best at DT. Which brings me to a topic that has unfortunately been much on my mind lately...2026. Our important (IMO) FAs are: Rico Dowdle - As you pointed out, Etienne is developing nicely and Brooks is still untested potential, so not a big loss. Cade Mays and Brady Christensen - I think we can keep both without breaking the bank. BC tested the market this year and it was all but non-existent. He's a solid backup, but backup linemen don't get paid. Mayes is our only starter on the line who's a FA and he's technically not a starter. Corbett is a FA, but good riddance as far as I'm concerned. He stays hurt and can't snap the damn ball when he is healthy. Hunter Renfrow signed a 1 -year prove it deal, and will resign a team friendly deal again I think. He has repeatedly said that he only wants to play here and is Coker's backup anyway. DJ Wonnum - Solid mid-tier guy that I would like back, but is easily replaceable. I will not cry if he walks. Every other FA is bottom of the barrel roster fillers. As it stands now, we need (in order); QB, ILB, OL/DL depth, secondary depth. If we resign Mays, OL is in tact again and still pretty darned good. Horne, Jackson, and Smith-Wade are solid starters as are T-mac and Coker. We have some promising young WRs in Tremayne and Horn. I see us trying to get a FA Chain mover and/or resign Renfrow. RB room looks really good. TE is a conundrum, Tremble will never be a great pass catcher and Sanders will never be a great blocker. Evans is starting to show signs of life, but not enough to tell yet. This could be another spot we try to upgrade via free agency, having a proven TE could really help our rookie QB.
