quote:

When asked if he was still one of the league’s “greatest unknowns,” Newton started talking and the words just fell together in the following perhaps-unfortunate order.

“Absolutely not,” he said. “I say this with the most humility, but I don’t think nobody has ever been who I’m trying to be. Nobody has the size, nobody has the speed, nobody has the arm strength, nobody had the intangibles that I’ve had.

“I’m not saying I’m the one-on-one type of person that this league will never see again. No, I’m not saying that, hear me out. I’m just saying that so much of my talents have not been seen in one person.”

He is so bad at English that he actually said something very humble.

Well, the dude is incredibly gifted and does play for a franchise that doesn't really understand how to build an offense.

Well, besides the humility part, he did not.

This word... I do not think it means what he thinks it means.

Well, he does have a combination of size, speed, and arm strength that no one else has...




... and at the butthurt still flowing from the rest of the SEC fans.

Most every athlete thinks more of their abilities compared to how good they actually are, big deal.

I prefer the honesty, as opposed to all the other players who think the same as he does but give the boring, PC answers that they don't actually mean.

He may be correct. The dude is a beast of an athlete.

The problem is he has a million dollar arm and a ten cent head. You can't win a Super Bowl with a QB like him.

Smart, he is not. Awesome.

I can't wait for Jameis to speak out like this. Comedy gold!
