So Mac has his nickname

[Tony2046]

We did this whole thread. If he gets and keeps 10 as his number, it's Mac-10. I have spoken.

 

[1960Pats]

Cam can't hit on nicknames either.

 

[n1997y]

His name literally is McCorkle. He doesn't need a nickname.

Corky?

 

[Fixit]

That nickname is turrible. T-R-B-L turrible.

This is some kind of BB weird ass boot camp bonding thing. BB asked around the league for a crap QB with crap nickname ideas etc. to break down everybody's personality to its most basic hear-and-obey level, post-Brady. Sure, anybody can follow a legend. But can you follow THIS guy? Whoever's our QB must be the hero. To prove you can follow, Cam Newton will now nickname you.

I much prefer his college nickname. Joker

It's already taken by a local legion unless Mac wants to pay him a stipend to lease the right to use.

Agreed, it fits him better in several ways. Here is a short little story about his "Joker" nickname at Alabama, the picture on the cover is awesome: MacJonesJokerNickname

Nicknames are fine. Most people have them. Nicknames for nicknames, on the other hand...

It's definitely been floated a time or eight. I could live with it, I could live with a lot of 'em, it's just sad to have a good half dozen better options and come out with "Mac and Cheese." Although if you're going to have that dumb nickname I guess it's a blessing to have "Kraft" to put in front of it.

I like Mac Jones of the Clan MacJones too. And I repeat: When Cam said "Mac and Cheese" he should have shouted in his face, "Mac Jones of Clan MacJones. There can be only one!"

I may be a tad sensitive but does nobody else read this and feel the disrespect for Jones in the way Kyle is talking? I hope this blows in his face in epic proportions.

Kyle Shanahan finds humor in the fact that people thought he wanted Mac Jones

The 49ers crafted a gratuitous mystery when they moved from No. 12 to No. 3 in the 2021 draft, given that they knew they ran the board after Trevor Lawrence inevitably went to the Jaguars and Zach Wilson inevitably went to the Jets.

Shanahan didn't fool anybody but himself.

Bulletin Board material (once he's actually the starting QB)!

How about "your mom's favorite player"?"

It will.

Shanahan didn't fool anybody but himself.

Shannon Sharpe, who is close to Mike Shanahan, had said numerous times the initial pick was Mac Jones. However, trading up so early gave Shannon a Lynch too much time on their hands to evaluate quarterbacks. They gave Lance another look and they decided to go with him.

Tweak it to just McCheese. The mayor.

If I were Cam I would call him "backasswards". As in his name is backasswards.
