Cam on Kuechly: "I guarantee you if you look in the linebackers room right now, he's still there."

[Jesse]

• Cam: “...Very explosive offensively and defensively.. we have to make an account of their great players. They’re not trying to bat it down, they’re trying to create turnovers. With a great week of practice and staying ahead of the chains well be alright”

After KB when down, how did the dynamic change? How did you get guys to not hit the panic button?

• Cam: "That was the big factor that wasn’t taken into consideration - we didn’t play a game. Everyone has a backup that should be on par. Each week last year it was something different - whether it be myself, greg, etc. Now this year it’s no different with players like Bene. It don’t matter who the player is, we have answers for it. We treat it like a comeback.”

“What makes you nervous?”

• Cam: "I've been playing football a lot and its a weird feeling you get. I don’t get nervous more-so than anxious. What is it, 640 on Sunday? That’s a weird time lol. I dreamt about this…"

“Did it help having veterans bring you some of the guys along?”

• Everybody did their part. They all did their job I’m not gonna take all the credit. A lot of guys behind the scenes don't get enough credit. Proehl is one of the behind-the-scenes guy that does so much. Benji wasn’t the only one we’re missing. Stephen Hill is one of those guys." Gave credit to Hill during the off-season. "We’re professional athletes."

“[Something about Luke Kuechly]...The first person that took him out to dinner was you”

• Cam: "Took him out to dinner?" Smirk. "I took him out to the pub, the draft was still going on and other athletes were there. Had a pretty good meeting then and he got to know who I was and it was pretty good. That wasn’t my first time meeting Luke. The first time I met Luke was at IMG and I didn’t know who he was - I thought he was a linebacker and he was running routes. I was like “Damn he’s a linebacker?”

“Luke and TD have different personalities. What’s your take on them?

• Cam: "Uhm. Well I think TD is more consistent personality wise on and off the field. He has that aura about himself - when he walks in the room he’s so sociable. He brings everybody along with him. Luke leads in a different way he’s friendly. Like extremely friendly. You’d never think the person Luke isn’t the best linebacker in the NFL based on him. “Hi Cameron” on the field he’s like “Daaah dunanana it’s crazy”

“Were you kinda taken back kinda when you first noticed that about Luke?”

• Cam: "When the crowd - I thought they kept booing him. The persona of the crowd .. Luuuuuukke.. 2-10 Luuuuuuke 3-12 Luuuuuuke 4-6. You respect him - I guarantee you if you look in the linebacker room he’s still in there. It’s not just him though."

“Earlier in the bus game last year - how did that action change your outlook - how you view your career or your life?”

• Cam: "It's a constant reminder that makes you remember what to put first in life.Truth of the matter is - if I’m not using my position in positive position then shame on me. As long as I can get - or feel like - not only in charlotte or atlanta.. and how people react to you. People look at my situation and see hope. Some people call it immaturity, I couldn’t care less. Giving the football, that’s what I care about. The positive things will always outweigh the negative things.

“What pops out about the Arizona secondary?”

• What doesn’t? Their defensive backs are as physical as we’ve seen

"They are as physical a team as we have ever seen." - Cam Newton on Cardinals, specifically their secondary.

[Captain Morgan]

Cam:  the Atlanta loss was weird, because we didn't practice because of weather reasons.

We need to practice as much as possible.  I think about the ota's, training camp, it was a battle.
