Panthers Owner Jerry Richardson Lauds Play Of QB Cam Newton

The Panthers didn't talk themselves out of drafting Cam Newton with the No. 1 overall pick, and he has rewarded their faith with perhaps the greatest rookie season an NFL player has ever had. Carolina owner Jerry Richardson is understandably thrilled with how it all worked out. "As far as I'm concerned, he'll be the last quarterback we ever draft high in my lifetime," Richardson told Peter King last week. "He is a very unusual young man, and I say that in a highly complimentary way." Richardson had Newton visit him at his home prior to the draft, asking the young QB direct questions about his ability to lead a franchise. The owner had a hunch Newton could pull it off, and it appears his foresight has paid off. "He does not complain. Ever. He's never in the trainers room," Richardson said. "You watch him get hit out there and you think, 'He got to be hurting,' and then you see he's never with the trainers. The way he has adapted to our team and to the NFL has been tremendous. We couldn't be happier."

well, no shit. he IS their offense and has had a monumental rookie season............. he just better enjoy it while newton is still somewhat happy and giving full effort because it's not going to last long in my opinion. if i were richardson, i would be throwing money this off-season at any players and coaches we would need to get the job done in the next couple of years because this fairy tale won't last long.
