Former 49ers long snapper Brian Jennings on KNBR “Cam Newton owes me $25,000″

“Cam Newton owes me $25,000, a lot of people don’t know that,” Jennings said on Wednesday morning’s Murph and Mac Show on KNBR.

Jennings implied that an unprepared Newton cost him $25,000 more in a winner’s share after the NFC lost the 2012 Pro Bowl.

“We have Drew Brees with his playbook all week, studying. … We have Cam Newton with his head phones on all week goofing off. … We go into the game, and this guy is chucking the ball all over the place, and everybody is looking around going, ‘What’s this guy doing? Are you kidding?’ The punter and I look at each other and say, ‘We are going to have a long second half.’ We punted five times.”

“He went in there and stank it up. He never looked at his playbook and he’s chucking the ball all over the place. He can’t hit the open guy.”

Newton was 9 for 27 in the game with two touchdowns and three interceptions, which included a pick six to Chiefs linebacker Derrick Johnson. The NFC was up 35-31, then allowed four unanswered touchdowns in the second half and lost, 59-41.

On a radio show after the game, Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers said, “I was just surprised that some of the guys either didn’t want to play, or when they were in there, didn’t put any effort into it.”

I find it more amusing that people have to dig back to a pro bowl game years ago to find something to try and trash that evil cam newton lol

But peter king said... Lol

Go back to retirement you meaningless chum. Nobody knows your name, which is more than likely what this is about

    • It’ll be interesting to see how the board falls I completely agree with you on TE for us The safety from Oregon would be the cherry on top for Evero’s defense/scheme.  If a OL’men is there that you love it would be very hard to pass up. This fan base seems to just see Walker as a stop gap but I wouldn’t be so sure. He’s the same age as Ekwonu. He’s had a much more impressive career arc/progression than Icky has. He’s the better pass protector. As far as I see it if Walker has a good year I’d bring him back over Icky. Ekwonu isn’t some elite franchise LT. Playing next to Lewis is going to be great for Walker much like it has been for Icky. We definitely need to get younger/cheaper on the OL though so for this reason alone it’s still top of my list come round 1 if board falls this way  Could also use another corner with Mike Jackson’s deal up after this season and needing a nickel but Corey Thornton looked really good in that role in the limited time we got to see him. However he’s coming off an achillies injury and you never know with those.  Then as mentioned above we do still have a need at WR. As far as “weapons” go it’s kind of a 2 man show with Tmac and Coker and neither is a burner. If Jordan Tyson is there at 19 and we can have a young WR group locked up for cheap that’s a huge advantage cap wise  And don’t forget linebacker. That clip in Devin’s Lloyd blueprint they used from Evero saying they need more intelligence there could’ve been left out for Wallace’s sake but it’s true. Wallace is lost in coverage. Pair a smart linebacker with Lloyd and that’s a group with Wallace and Cherelus being depth 
    • The fact that this is even a discussion is a testament of the level of front office badassery that's going on. 
    • Not always. LT was for the Giants. So was Ray Lewis. Von Miller was moreso than Manning his final year in the season that shall not be named. It's usually the QB, but not always.
