Really Cam Newton

“The past couple of games have been the same script, by the same director,” Newton said. “It’s kind of getting boring.”

“This taste, this vibe — I’m not buying it, man. And I don’t know what it is, but something’s going to have to change. Something’s going to have to change real fast.”



“I’m going to bring in a suggestion box. And I want your suggestions in that suggestion box, because I sure don’t know. I really don’t,” Newton said


“We just find a way to keep the game close just to see what happens at the end,” Newton said. “I’m getting tired of it, and that’s not a formula to win. Domination is a formula to win.”

Dallas Cowboys cornerback Morris Claiborne (24) makes an interception in the end zone on
Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton (1) as Dallas Cowboys inside linebacker Bruce Carter (54) watches.

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton:

“The past couple of games have been the same script, by the same director,” Newton said.

Cam Newton's comments, will be open to interpretation that he is calling for a coaching change.

“I’m going to bring in a suggestion box. And I want your suggestions in that suggestion box, because I sure don’t know. I really don’t,” Newton said.

It sounds like the second year time bomb is ticking away and he warned the media to bring a suggestion box because he's out of answers on how to turn things around.

"We got to take the officials out of the game." Newton said.

Cam Newton needs to transition to a pro-style offense. Defenses figured out quick his college offense.

Despite the pretty numbers Carolina quarterback Cam Newton attained as a rookie last season, he never generated a signature late fourth-quarter drive.

If you’re confused as to where Newton was trying to go with this press conference, you’re not alone. Newton’s reply was concise.

“I’m not the playcaller.” he said after flailing his arms a bit. “I’m speaking for [Offensive Coordinator Mike Chudzinski] but you’ve to to have a balanced offense. The running game hasn’t been as exciting as we want it to be but you still have got to call those plays.”

“It’s getting boring, something needs to change,” said Newton.

Sounds like Newton is calling out his teammates. When in fact, you have another loss in a season that has been full of turnovers by Newton in the end zone.

If RGIII' your guy, thought you might enjoy this article, to be published online - NY Post.

Excerpt: The Giants praise Robert Griffin III

“That guy is flat out unbelievable,” Umenyiora said after the Giants survived their first test of the season against the Redskins and Griffin. “He’s the best quarterback we’ve played all year for sure,” Umenyiora said. “It’s unfortunate he’s a rookie because he’s going to be around here forever doing stuff like that and that’s just crazy.”

He kept the Giants guessing and off-balance throughout the game, faking handoffs, escaping pressure, making big throws and long runs. His signature moment came with 2:07 left in the fourth quarter when on fourth-and-10, he escaped the rush of Jason Pierre-Paul and then Umenyiora before completing a 19-yard pass to tight end Logan Paulsen. It extended the drive that led to the go-ahead touchdown pass to Moss.

“It’s hard to game-plan for that guy,” Tuck said. “He takes away your enthusiasm for the game a little bit when you play a play perfect and you still have a guy with 4.3 speed who make plays.”

It looked like a dominant game by the Giants defense. They collected three sacks, including the first of the season by Tuck. They forced four turnovers, including three fumble recoveries. The last one came with 39 seconds left when linebacker Chase Blackburn stripped Santana Moss from the ball and cornerback Jayron Hosley recovered.

Working out of the spread option-offense, Griffin was a menace and a marvel. He completed 20 of 28 passes for 258 yards and two touchdowns. He also ran nine times for 89 yards, including a 28-yard gain. His 30-yard TD pass to Moss with 1:32 was a perfect over-the-shoulder throw that gave the Redskins a 23-20 lead and hushed MetLife Stadium.

He kept the Giants guessing and off-balance throughout the game, faking handoffs, escaping pressure, making big throws and long runs. His signature moment came with 2:07 left in the fourth quarter when on fourth-and-10, he escaped the rush of Jason Pierre-Paul and then Umenyiora before completing a 19-yard pass to tight end Logan Paulsen. It extended the drive that led to the go-ahead touchdown pass to Moss.

“It’s hard to game-plan for that guy,” Tuck said. “He takes away your enthusiasm for the game a little bit when you play a play perfect and you still have a guy with 4.3 speed who make plays.”

But the Giants’ defense made its share of plays, too. Pierre-Paul forced a fourth-quarter fumble by Griffin that was recovered by Linval Joseph, and Blackburn sealed the game by taking it away from Moss.

“You wrap and rip,” Blackburn said. “When you feel the ball you have to go after it.”

That’s the only way the Giants were going to beat the Redskins yesterday. Wrap and rip.

“They force you to dig down in and make some plays,” said Giants coach Tom Coughlin.

The Giants’ coaching staff made several defensive adjustments in the second half, altering the way they attacked if given certain looks. It was as much a mental game as it was physical.

Perhaps the more the Giants see Griffin and the Redskins offense the better they’ll be able to defend it. But that might be wishful thinking.

Um...no, at 23 a person is generally regarded to have enough cognitive ability to be legaglly considered an adult.

My dad taught to watch my mouth pretty early on. Well before age 23.

We need a leader and he should be a good example of what we don't want. He was a dickhead in that press conference and didn't represent the Panthers well. He called a female reporter "sweetheart" in a condescending manner. Admitting mistakes and taking ownership is great as long as there is change.

[BlackHelicopters]

Contrary to what we thought of Cam at Auburn, money is not a motivating factor to play well. Go figure.

[Molitoth]

Everyone blast Cam Newton for wanting to win...

good job.

sounds like to me the Panthers have a Coaching staff nearly as good as the Chiefs.

No but, he did do his superman pose in garbage time when they were getting their ass kicked a couple of weeks ago. He caught a ton of heat for that. The city is turning on him.
