It's amazing how much hate Cam Newton still gets...

[SCP]

...from callers on Charlotte sports talk radio. I don't know if it's because so many other fan bases infest this city and just hate because they are asshole transplants, or if it's because our fan base is just totally misguided? It's freaking pathetic.

People used to hate on Jordan too. Cam will only change some peoples opinion once he leaves them no choice. Play well, and win all the big games and people will move onto another target.

I think it's partially the fan base, as well as the hate he's still getting from the Auburn scandal.

Haters gotta hate.

Maybe they are afraid that he will lead us to a superbowl? There are very few real fans who have anything bad to say about Cam. He & Beurlien are the only NFL caliber Qbs this team has ever had.

Delhomme did good things for the team, but in his case it was the same as The Golden Calf of Bristol is experiencing in Denver...Foxy's commitment/insanity to stick with the run game is paying short-term dividends, but will not end in a championship.

Go Panthers & go Cam!

people hate losing, not cam newton.

if the panthers were 7-2 right instead of 2-7, no one would say anything negative about the kid...and it wouldn't be because "he silenced the haters."

cam newton is not the answer to this franchise being turned around. is he the answer to the qb position? maybe.

A lot of thinly disguised The Golden Calf of Bristol/Dalton/Luck talk here, but it nothing but hate directed at Cam.

I think the Huddle is misguided. I don't think people are hating Cam Newton. I think most people not so obsessed with him can see he's making a lot of game-costing mistakes and it's mainly been the offense that's dropped the ball in the end.

People will stop criticizing him when he leads our team to wins and starts playing the game better. It's that simple. When we win everyone will love him. But most people aren't so damn up his ass that they don't know losing 6-7 close 4th quarter games when your offense has more tries than anyone else in the league isn't the QB's fault and the offense. Or when they see so many things he clearly does wrong.

Just people here. Dudes who expect people never to criticize him think it's hate. But in reality, it's just straight talk. And it also comes with the territory of being the #1 draft pick. And he brings a lot of poo on himself because of the things he says.

He'll be fine if he learns. He can't get better without acknowledging, being shown, or told what he's doing wrong in the first place.

Criticism is fine, it's the NFL. But I still hear a lot about his vocabulary, his mannerisms on the sideline, the f*cking towel on the head bullsh*t, his supposed inability to lead. It's a damn shame.

Unless you are winning majority of your games... fans on local call in shows tend to find anything to criticize a player for... Even A-Rod had to deal with some in Greenbay until he truely proved himself. Heck when I was in Atlanta Matt Ryan started his career strong, but that dude was getting blasted in Atlanta left and right.

Most people calling in are not gonna be your resonable fans who are content with things... it's usually more extremist either one way or the other. But call in callers should not give you the temperature of the fan base as you don't get as many objective callers.

Our fans are pretty bitchy, most of them are on permanent periods.
