To Cam Newton quarterback, there is an “aura” about you when you don the New England Patriots.
Newton explained after the Patriots defeated the Raiders on Sunday, 36-20: “One thing you did peep from walking on the first day, there’s an aura you get when you play as a member of the New England Patriots.” “This aura can sometimes be like errrr, it’s just a little Patriot way from the outside looking inward, but on the inside looking out, these guys really enjoy the process, like me. Being a member, I’m lucky to be here and at whatever A time when I can lighten the mood in some way or shape, I don’t hesitate. “
Newton, who was 17 to 28 from 162 yards with the landing, went on to explain just how lethal the Patriots attack was, and with that, how willing they were to take on any opponent in more ways than one.
“We want to put defenses into bouts of consciousness that we have many different ways to beat you,” Newton said after the match during the post-match press conference. And a large number of different types of schemes [and] We want to run down the hill, run over the edge, and throw it deep, it doesn’t matter. I think that was the biggest advantage just in terms of this ability to attack the team in so many different ways and I’m still successful. “
For the most part, the Patriots played an advantage against the Raiders. Newton credited offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels (who earned his own title) and broad future Julian Edelman for holding the team accountable after losing to the Seahawks in the second week.
Mickey D. [pause]Coach McDaniels came to me, and so did Jules, and they challenged us not to let our feet go off gas. ”We had a relatively interesting workout this week knowing the tempo [and] Expectations were very high. After a loss, this was kind of different to me being in the building and seeing how people react differently to the loss. It wasn’t acceptable to me and I know it wasn’t acceptable to many others in this building.
He continued, “We knew that we had to finish the ball in our hands and also create a kind of pillow using the center piece engine, so to speak.” “We had plays that were called up and we tried to do them as much as possible. I think we’ve done a great job outside of one specific force. But, at the end of the day, we’ve had a number of answer engines this year and I’m very happy with our team.” [for] The way they were defensive [and] Aggressively. When you get this kind of chemistry early on, it just builds great habits here to get ahead in the latter part of the season. “

Despite the game’s “slow start”, Newton was affected by how the attack was able to regain momentum and continue the “attack” until the end of the match.
“For us, being able to attack and stay in attack, the whole match is something that does not go unnoticed for us. We understood that we had a very good passing game in the last game, and we had a great mix from the first game – which we kind of like – plus. To this game, slow start but at the end of the day, we found ways to win.When you are able to do it as a team team, as a coach [Belichick] He said, “Play complementary football,” things will escalate for us with the degree of success. “
For Newton, the team’s success shows how well each player can “maximize” their roles, as shown by the run against the invaders.
“Berky had a game.” Newton said. “These guys were teasing each other in the locker room with Sony. [Michel]He did a lot of the heavy lifting and most of the time, I wouldn’t say it’s a bit like that because we practice maximizing our role. I think that’s what she did when it came to guys like Small Fry, Burky, Son Son and everyone else. It doesn’t matter if he’s in the down position, which was highlighted today, or anything else moving forward. “
“It’s just another different feature of attacking defense, and like I said, Berkey has had a day and who knows who’s going to be next week.”
However, not every pass was perfect on Newton’s part. He took responsibility for throwing a costly interception in the second quarter, but remained satisfied with how the team carried out regardless.
“I had to do a better job protecting football, and this unjustified objection was entirely my fault. Trying to extend the play kind of puts pressure on them a lot, but even so, at the end of the day, this kind of game will happen and we have done what we need to do and this All that matters. “
Newton added: “We just find ways to win.” “That is it. We played three different teams, three different types of teams and every match, there was 100% consistency and a feeling that we would be in the best position to win and still have a chance to win. I got back with the players playing for each other, for the common goal.” , And that’s all there is to it “.
On a lighter note
One thing is for sure, Newton is enjoying being outside, whether it’s the nicknames he has for each player (and coach) or associating with his teammates on the sidelines. Sitting beside N’Keal Harry and Julian Edelman’s wide receivers on the sidelines, Newton is seen laughing and instantly becomes a meme.
I had to do that.

While Newton did not allow exactly what he and Harry were talking about, he did discuss their friendship and the relationship Newton is building with his teammates.
“I will continue this discussion in the field, and we can start from there,” Newton said with a smile. “I just think it was better for people to ask what we were talking about than to actually know it, and to be honest with you I really don’t know. I was trying to read his lips like, ‘What is he saying man?’ But yeah, these guys were Doughboy grows through the game and clearly has the leadership of Jules – he has done a great job for us and I expect him to keep making the mark with his production. ”
Newton also took the time to express how important James White was to the team, and that winning on Sunday is, in a way, a “reward” for him:
“James, he’s a leader for a reason. The most important thing is when you have a guy like this you sympathize with what he’s going through. You don’t necessarily feel it personally but you feel it emotionally and we just want to reward him and put him in good spirits. I know if he’s watching. That or he watched the match, we’re very excited to have him back here soon and we pray for him. We need Sweet Feet back. “
