Gettis Feeling Super

[jtnc]

CHARLOTTE - The first time Panthers wide receiver David Gettis reached the end zone as an NFL player, he broke into a Superman pose.

The first time Panthers quarterback Cam Newton reached the end zone as an NFL player – nearly a year later – he broke into a Superman pose.

"It was a joke at first because people noticed it on the team, but I think he did it better, so I can't really complain," Gettis said."All of a sudden when he starts doing it, everybody around the world starts doing it. That's fun to see for me as a fan of the game.

"He's the quarterback. He can do whatever he wants to do. It's his team, and I'm just happy to be a part of it."

Gettis can't wait to be even more a part of it. He had to watch Newton's remarkable rookie season in street clothes, the victim of a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee suffered during training camp.

Gettis recently declared himself "93 percent" back from the injury.

"Right now, I'm just trying to get my full strength back and then just try to get the bulk back in my leg," he said. "It's clearly there, but it's a little off, so I'm still working on strength, just trying to finish out the little parts to make me 100 percent.

"My job right now is to get healthy and not be just the same player but a better player than I was before I got hurt."

Why did it create a whole other thread? Odd.

93% percent eh? That's good news.

Very odd, indeed. Maybe this is supposed to be in the 'articles' part of the site. It's definitely shortened than my version.

Love Gettis, hoping we get to see him and Cam strike a Superman pose side by side this season after connecting on a TD pass.

I hope he just blows up this year. He looked good with Clausen. I'm betting he could look super with Cam!

He looked mediocre with Clausen. Damn good with Matt Moore.

Hopefully he'll blow up with Cam.
