farmteam Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 24, 2011 -> 12:51 PM) I concur, and maybe he wouldn't. He just seems like the type of player to take that kind of thing very seriously. I think he takes it seriously enough the he respects it, and wouldn't cheapen it like that.

southsider2k5 Posted August 25, 2011 Author Share Posted August 25, 2011 http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/6894818/...-tats-piercings Cam Newton has the potential to become the face of the Carolina Panthers' franchise. So before the team drafted him with the No. 1 overall pick, owner Jerry Richardson wanted answers to some questions -- including the quarterback's physical appearance. Mike and Mike in the Morning ESPN NFL Insider Chris Mortensen shares his thoughts on Panthers owner Jerry Richardson, Colts quarterbacks Peyton Manning and Kerry Collins and Titans RB Chris Johnson. More Podcasts » In a recent interview on "The Charlie Rose Show" on PBS, the 75-year-old Richardson recounted a conversation he had with the the 22-year-old Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback on April 4 in which he asked Newton if he had any tattoos or piercings. When Newton replied "No sir, I don't have any," Richardson told Rose he told the quarterback: "Good. We want to keep it that way." Richardson first revealed his conversation with Newton in a Charlotte Observer interview in the spring after the quarterback was drafted. The April 4 meeting came just weeks after the team had signed tight end Jeremy Shockey, who has several tattoos. "I'm not a choirboy. I've never said I was. And I don't want a roster of 53 choirboys," he told the newspaper in April. "I told Jeremy Shockey, 'Don't change your personality. It'll be good for the team. I could do without the tattoos, though." In "The Charlie Rose Show" interview, Richardson also said that Newton said he was thinking about growing out his hair. Richardson said he responded, "I think you have a very nice haircut." When Charlie Rose told Richardson he sounded like Vince Lombardi, the Panthers owner responded: "I think I sound reasonable." Richardson, a former teammate of Johnny Unitas with the Baltimore Colts and the first ex-NFL player since George Halas to own a team, was awarded the Panthers franchise in 1993. Newton, who is competing with Jimmy Clausen for the team's starting quarterback job, is slated to start Thursday night's preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Information from The Associated Press was used in this report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 i really dont care what the talk is about the number 1 wide reciever, in my mind it is gonna be Bennett this season and it isnt even close. Not only does Jay love to throw to him in high pressure situations, but the guy is always where he is supposed to be and is really good about taking extra yards. Jenksy, i dont think this line is nearly as bad as you think it is. it is not a great or even good line by any stretch, but it is much better than last season. i think jay will have more time to get things done back there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bears have one of the most experienced coaching staffs in NFL history. That's one section of this team I don't think you can complain about.
