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

I'll never forget that Pro-Bowl. I've never in my life seen such hate seem to be exuded towards one player. It made sense to me however, just as they iced MJ in his first All Star game. I was not surprised to see that his divisional counterparts weren't all too worried about exactly keeping Newton healthy. I had really looked forward to seeing Newton go out and have fun, being his normal self. But you could feel the frustration.

“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.”

 

 

LOL - the best thing about Jennings is that he always told it like it was. Never Bulls*itted anyone.

 

Take off your Beats By Dre, would you Cam?

    • Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.
    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
