Being Afro-American quarterback, I scare lot of people: Newton

Cam Newton and the Panthers have been dominant in the first half of their postseason games, outscoring Arizona and Seattle by a combined margin of 55-7. “More about what you have accomplished, what you have done”.

“I’m an African-American quarterback that scares people because they haven’t seen nothing that they can compare me to”, said the 6-foot-5, 245-pound Newton. “I know there’s a lot of money involved and everything, but at the end of the day, it’s about entertainment and having fun”.

MOBILE, Ala. – Washington Redskins general manager Scot McCloughan would rather sign quarterback Kirk Cousins to a longterm deal than use the franchise tag on him.

Before I go too far down the road of football enlightenment. Grab a small helping of idiocy and act like you want to throw up. “It shows that if you help somebody and give somebody a chance and don’t judge people, look where they can get to”. This person is going to say that, ‘ then I can’t look at myself and say, ‘I’m Cam Newton’.

“Whether you win, lose or draw, people are going to talk”, Newton said. He’s a tremendously gifted athlete, a terrific quarterback, a smart football player.

Raw talent carried Newton to a college championship with Auburn, the Heisman Trophy as top USA collegiate player, the top pick in the 2011 NFL Draft and rookie of the year honors. “He’s got a right to understand that (race) could be one of the problems”. Yet even Peyton has people that don’t like him.

“I don’t think he spends a lot of time with what people think about him if it’s not positive. Hopefully we can get past those things”.

AUSTRALIAN OPEN QUARTERFINALS: Andy Murray-David Ferrer OVER 37 games (available at William Hill) – Murray has yet to be tested during his run through the Australian Open bracket but David Ferrer has been playing some great tennis as well. Newton said he’s comfortable in the position he’s in now and could not “care less what you say” about him.

The Broncos are the only team in National Football League history ever to overcome 14-point deficits in one season against three playoff-bound teams – New England, Kansas City and Cincinnati.

“I didn’t say ‘I want you to be here, ‘ (but) I need you”. Urlacher played under Carolina coach Ron Rivera in Chicago and his former teammate Charles Tillman is on the Panthers roster, although he won’t play in the Super Bowl due to injury. “Now when I see pictures of me bald I’m like ‘ew.’ But people are used to seeing me bald so when I’m walking around without the hat on, I see people doing a lot of double takes”.
