OT: Cam Newton entrance yesterday

[sb1]

LOL. All he needed was ripping off the jersey like the Hulkster. He should do this in WWE

 

[sb1]

Who cares about a Brady rematch I can't wait to see Cam vs Pats in SBLVI

 

[InRodWeRust]

I wish him the best except when he plays us. He was dealt a crap hand last year when it came to offensive weapons and he appeared to do his best. He tied Steve Grogan for most rushing touchdowns as a Pat so that was pretty neat. Good luck to you Cam I'm happy to see you out there again!

 

[chasa]

the stuff I didn't like about cam showed up yesterday.

All the dramatics, all the over the top nonsense, and all the losing. He needs to start saving some of that celebration energy for clutch time, instead of choking away games.

 

[archstanton543]

Meh.

 

[203Pat]

I didn't really like Cam Newton as a whole before he got here but I am rooting for him now. He may have been awful last year but by all accounts he was a great guy in the locker room and made the best out of a bad situation.

Yea I have no use for that self-promotional BS.

I give Cam credit for keep that under wraps here.

 

[tasmlab]

I'm guessing Cam will only get "homecoming savior" treatment for a game or two if they don't win something.

 

[Betterthanmost]

All of this and they lost to the WFT?

 

[amfootball]

Carolina seems happy to have him back.

 

[DropKickFlutie]

Very happy for Cam. Sad that Cam Newton in Boston didn't work, as I predicted...

But he was a good stopgap last year with crappy teammates in LaCosse, Izzo, NKeal, Michel, 25M in dead cap and key covid opt-outs, and still went 7-9

WFT sure does like to beat former NE QB's. Damn.

Or, could be interpreted as just joyful enthusiasm.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

He should just finish his playing career in Carolina. He was meant for them and the team for him.

 

[MrBigglesWorth]

Is he the most overhyped qb over a 10 yr period?

 

[sb1]

Still don’t really understand the move to bring him back here this year but it’s all good.

 

[Biffins]

Can't call someone "overhyped" if they actually win NFL MVP and make it to the Superbowl.

Overhyped would be ............. Tony Romo or Philip Rivers or Andrew Luck or Matthew Stafford or something. Guys that achieved neither.

 

[jah]

I'd go with Kirk Cousins there.

Pretty much most of the NFL today right?

That said, loved Cam the man when he was here. Brightened up a dismal time. As someone else said, kudos to him for buying in on the Patriots Way. Happen for him he found his stage.

 

[MrBigglesWorth]

Agree. A lot of dumbas-s here.

But honestly this was ZERO surprise for Cam Newton coming to Boston. Boston has a reputation and it absolutely lived up to it across media and elsewhere. In the year 2020 it still held true how the region would react. Zero excuse-making for having LaCosse and Izzo as your starting TE's. Whatever.

It's also funny, to your point, to see this crap about former-MVP Cam, or poking holes at a MVP Lamar being 'exposed', who still has room to grow. Any other franchise would be thrilled to talk about how much room an already-MVP has 'to grow'.

But it's par for the course for the region. You have awesome visionaries like Red, but at the same time have Sox ownership who were dead-last in a lot of opportunities and situations for players.

How many winning seasons did he have? BTW... McDaniels is MVP
