villa4europe Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 To be fair to him the interview I watched you can hear the Broncos bloke in the background giving it the Barry mcbiggun, it's like they interviewed them with a desk divider between them, that would piss a lot of people off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Really? all he said was that the game plan was to stack the box and dare him to throw absolutely no excuse for his behaviour IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Don't get me wrong he's not Richard shermaning it but still it's a shit set up, sounds like they did it to Shula too, interviewed him while wade was stood next next to him also being interviewed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 He was acting petulant before Harris started talking though. If he didn't dab, talk aelfies at the 2 minute warning etc then I doubt people would be taking issue with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Watching Eli's reaction there and to me it looks like he was just very nervous for his brother and also probably didn't want to look like a Denver fanboy while still a Giant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milfner Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 A player doesn't like losing. Big news, it seems. What an awful person he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 I doubt most Superbowl losing QB's like losing. Did any them of them act like Cam? Hood up, sulking, answering with one word then walking out in the middle of the interview? I get that he's upset, but you owe it to your team to act like a leader. None of the other Panthers acted like him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 As I said before, if he wasn't so cocky and in your face when he's winning then it wouldn't even be an issue. That's his character and that's fine but he's the face and the leader of the Panthers and he owes it to his team to hold himself to a higher standard than that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milfner Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 So desperate to stick the oar in on him. Do you wish he was as robotic as Wilson and a lot of the other QBs? The Panthers fans/staff/players' opinion of him won't change irrelevant of the shite other people/media try to peddle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StefanAVFC Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 2 wrongs make a right? Manning was wrong there. Sherman was wrong to trash talk after the NFCCG (as much as I probably defended him at the time) Newton was wrong to act so petulant last night. I'm not desperate to stick the oar in, Christ. Most people are saying that once you start acting like he does, and fair play to him if he's winning, don't be surprised when people shove it in your face when you lose and act the way he did. Whatever, it doesn't matter anyway. I won't change your mind and I don't expect you to. But yesterday doesn't reflect well on Cam. The falling over on the sidelines, not diving on the fumble (or even making an attempt) and his attitude post-game. It's him, I get it. But you can't expect him to draw criticism for it.

People don't like losing, and Carolina beat a lot of teams this year. It's all schaudenfraude really. I'm not going to deny I enjoyed Cam getting smashed around last night considering he played a big part in eliminating my team from contention. I just thought he acted in a way unbefitting of his leader status on that team, with the fumble especially. I have heaps of respect for so many of the Panthers players; TD deserves a ring. Kuechly is out of this world. Are they robots? Because they didn't act like Cam? Edited February 9, 2016 by StefanAVFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milfner Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Who actually gives a shit? Way, way too many people. Stefan, I'd say leading your team to 17 wins out of 19 games is some pretty outstanding leadership to be honest. Davis and Josh Norman both cried post-game. Cam chose not to answer some tedious questions after losing in a Superbowl. People deal with emotions differently. This is all I'll say on this because it's so unbelievably irrelevant after losing in the biggest game of his career and I literally couldn't give a ****.

maqroll Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Newton falling over on the sideline and walking out of the presser reflects poorly on him. So does the piling on by Denver players the day after the game. Take the high road after the win, FFS. Ugly game made uglier by some of this crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet he failed as a leader in the biggest stage of all when he didn't fancy getting involved with that fumble. I think that's a disgrace to guys like TD and Luke (especially with TD's arm) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no sane benchmark where that wasn't a catch. I was fully sure it would be reversed and couldn't believe when it wasn't. I don't suffer from myopia when I'm watching a game. It benefited us but it shouldn't have. Although I don't think it changed the outcome. Looks like they got it right. Touches the turf, wobbles.

StefanAVFC Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Nothing to do with the press conference as, as Ryan said, it's pointless arguing about it, but Cam has said that he didn't go for the fumble in case he got injured. How does he look someone like TD in the eye saying something like that, considering this was TD's arm for the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
