“Really? Wow,” said Smith, surprised by Newton’s response.
Newton asked a question to help explain his unexpected answer.
“Because you have to ask for it through this goal.” Said Newton.
“You look at a guy like Allen Iverson, ‘you got up on the table and Rararara. The luxury of saying:” Hey, I have not only dominated this sport, but I also have championships to support it. ” “”
Newton won the MVP Award in 2015 when he led the Carolina Panthers to a regular season record of 15-1 and went to the Super Bowl before losing against Denver 24-10 broncos.
To further support his argument, Newton then began to quote quarters that were not MVP caliber players but who won the Super Bowl.
“Like, let me remember, Brad Johnson won a super bowl, Trent Dilfer won a super bowl, respectfully, Nick Foles won a super bowl. So, yes, when you look at these guys, and you say what is the most important, you preferred to win a super bowl? “Said Newton.
