Guarding Tyreek and getting guarded by Ramsey is despicable work
I can’t breath😂😂that is crazy work
Ramsey gets torched by every top receiver.
Idk why this guy is considered the best corner.
He probably won't play man to man with tyreek
He’ll destroy Jalen. He’s not disciplined in come back deep routes. And deep post. Hill tho. Shewww. Idk
Bro by then jalen not tryna see Travis 1on1 let’s be 100
Everything’s impossible to people until someone makes it possible. That’s how life goes.
Love this
That's absolutely ridiculous.
@@lamasterbatonlll1383thank you 😂
We are talking NFL here. The teams Colorado is playing half the players will not step foot on a nfl field so showing out in college is not remotely the same as the nfl. Travis Hunter is an unbelievable talent but both ways in the nfl is diabolical work considering the competition he'll be facing
@@madmike7248yall say stuff like this mean while players coming from small schools every year get into the nfl and make a name for themselves
I saw someone say he should play Full Time Receiver and then come in and play in the Nickel or Dime package on defense. Makes sense, either way Travis is gonna ball.
He’s going to play both and ball out.
Yeah Shannon sharpe and ochocino pretty much had this take, I agree
@@ThePodBoss69 that’s exactly where I saw it, good looks.
Ain't nobody gonna let him play both sides. That's twice the injury risk. Not gonna happen
@@loganbremerman1248 I hear you….but he should do a little of both. Dude is a freak athlete
Cam spitting TRUTH.
Reg
Nbs I don’t disagree with anything he said at all
I second hand that
Wasn’t a fan of Cam but getting him in this environment has totally changed my perspective. My ignorance.
I can respect the honesty
Takes some balls to say that. Good shxt man.
80% reciever 20% DB in crucial situations.
That's it!
Yes I can see him WR 95% of the game and maybe CB on the final 2 min drill or goal line situations
@@kennyharmon1836why can’t y’all just let go of the fact that he is gonna have to play receiver 😂
He's a better DB than he is WR. He'll have a better career at DB in my opinion.
@@user-tl5bk9uv8x ...Have to play reveiver? 🙂
He can play whichever one they need him to play. He might not be able to go both ways the same way he does right now, be he's literally top 3 on both sides of the ball right now.
He'll excel wherever they put him, and if he concentrates on one, he'll be one of the best, whether it be WR or DB.
I actually see the opposite
Peggy and Cam looking like the Maad Hatter and Fonzworth Bentley. All we need is Andre 3k! I fux with the outfits!!!
😂 Peggy look like he bout to paint the Eiffel Tower🗼🏯🗽
@@qmajik9 looking like a sophisticated horse thief in the Renaissance Era. Year 1517 lookin ahh fit. I still fux with it tho. It’s stylish
@@Black_Phillip_Goat truue
@@Black_Phillip_Goatc'mon bro ... why'd you have to say "sophisticated horse thief"🤣🤣😂👊🏽
@@qmajik9😂😂😂😂😂😂
PEGGY GOT THAT SHIT ON🗣
🎉🎉 yo I just looked down at my phone and was like look a peg!!!!!!
He looking like he should’ve been on coming to America 😂
😂😂😂
He's going to be exhausted, but imagine 1 player that's 85wr and 85cb that's wild.
I think he’ll just be a 92 ovr ath
Nah he’s too skinny to play both ways. He’ll be hurt by week 3.
If all Deon wants to do is recruit he should be stacking the defense with those top lower division players. This sit back and keep it real with the top players in the nation strategy isn't going to get him a bowl game.
@@christof123he can’t do it in the league. He will be tired by half time. Teams will exploit it.
@@jackwilliams7738 If he was about 215 with the same stamina he would have a better chance.
That “IDGAF, Catch it” had me ready to run thru a wall.
Cam makes a ton of sense. He really should get a major network contract.
Why -- so a major network can demand he say things that don't make sense?
Travis is going to play receiver in the NFL. It's economics. We're talking about a possible $150,000,000 left on the table over the course of a 13 to 15 year NFL career; he's playing receiver.
T
Makes sense
That math checks out😂
Or he could play both and get more 😂. He’s not regular. Deion did this 20 years ago and people are acting like it’s impossible smh.
@@W2Tymes Deion did not play both sides of the ball full time. no one has ever done that. (edit: as I continue watching.. Cam even says Deion has packages, never was full time (which is the context of the conversation) if that was something you didn't know.. did you watch the vid??..
Real ones know that Travis was a C1N kid. Catching picks out there. Cam just humble
The owners don’t want to pay a guy like that. They will make him play one side, even if it means missing out.
At one point in my career I played LB, all special teams and occasional full back. Being on the field 2/3’d of the time is exhausting. Get the breaks on offense was nice, but when the offense isn’t moving the ball particularly well, there was lots of special teams and defense and boy I was worked. I couldn’t imagine trying to play WR and CB all day
I feel you bro, never left the field too!! LB, TE, ST's.. tired AF
That boy Peggy clean !
Facts
Looking like he just painted the most elegant painting ever
ain't he clean lol
Pegiérre
Boa dressed like his name “Peggy Da Vinci”. Him and Cam got that 🔥 on , ngl .
😂😂
I think Cam Newton is absolutely correct, and his professional summation of what the true expectations for Travis hunters should be He's not hating on him. He's saying that the people he's up against are also superstars, College is easy to stand out with a bunch of kids who ain't going pro but once you get to the NFL, you are up against the people who are going to the Hall of Fame. And if you play both ways, that's high traffic, and it's hard to succeed in high traffic and stay healthy. Those men in the NFL are all multimillionaires, and their job is to shut- you- down! Start on both sides of the ball in the NFL? I don't think so either. Just keeping it real. I love Travis and the Buffs, I want nothing but the best for him, we all know that in the NFL the next play could be your last play. he is very LIGHT and Slight for the Monsters on the Grid iron of Professional Football. And we have to remember Cam Newton has been there and done that, and he knows well what he speaks about. What if Travis Hunter gets to the league and he doesn't have a quarterback like Shaduer Sanders? Maybe? he winds up with a quarterback like Bryce Young or Caleb Williams. Also new to the game, trying to find their place. Can't put the ball exactly where Travis is used to catching it. There are a lot of narratives that can change his production. I think he should put on about another 20 pounds of muscle. This a grown man's game NFL stands for NOT FOR LONG. Cee Dee Lamb is great but he don't have Tom Brady throwing the Ball where only he can catch it, Dak Aint got Dat, Dallas Needs Shaduer Sanders.
Cam would be an awesome coach
Coach CAM
Already is. He’s been developing skill positions
Cam always speak the truth man. Preciate ya bro.
Why Peggy dressed like a mix between Guile from Street Fighter and Prince Akeem from Coming to America??
😂😂
Prince Peggy
😂😂😂😂
Dressed like a damn Cosby kid 😆
😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😂
I like how you guys put this together and on point topics
Cam remember that track from Goodie Mob's still standing masterpiece FLY AWAY? So befitting for this situation.
2:40 That EXTREME chemistry like joe burrow jamar chase played together since young now in 2024
Great take Cam! The media acts like yt players are the only one who can have passion without having an altercation, but blk players can galvanize their teammates too. Winners come in all shades and colors, and they don't trip on fervor language, as long as your intent means well.
Mannnnn we all know cam is synonymous with fashion… but that boy Peggy fly as hell this ep🔥🔥🔥🔥
Indeed he is🔥
Well Off Blowing up. The CU haters watching more than the fans 😂
This is legit.. I grew up in he 90's and early 2000's playing sports on a military base. So many of our fathers and coaches brought us up on more manly-like structure via a military commuication style. So our coaches and teammates held each other accountable like this. No excuses or reasons needed. We trained for this moment, so anything other than getting the job done is failure. If you want to be a cry baby, join the YMCA leagues lol.
Iam gonna say this an hit dogs yelp....If you trying to play at this level you can't run to dah side line lookin fer t-milk....this is ALPHA DAWG TERRITORY.....PUPPIES...EUNUCH....SHEHIMS find tha pickle ball court....
@@MarkHill-m2f what? I speak English.
@@JewelzFin this not go work in the nfl it can work in college cause u go against a lot of bum teams.
Facts
it’s effective sure, but it’s weird to me that you’re so positive about a structure of authority that exists to make teenagers willing to kill civilians. “sports is like war (they’re both good)”
If Luigi was sponsored by Play Station….his name would’ve been Peggy 😂😂
If he goes both ways, will they give him two salaries? It's not worth it.
That part, it’s cool in college to help his team, but NFL is a job, if you can’t pay me two salaries I’m not doing two people job full time
Play both way TWICE the chance of getting injured, playing tired, twice the game to learn and practice, focus on one and be the best
New monsters are born everyday don’t forget these young boys different
Maybe Travis goes 1st team Offense, 2nd team defense, or 1st team defense, second team offense
and gives the starters on either side double the rest time for the games they play
And extends the careers of 3 players total - himself and the #1WR and #1CB on the team
its the latter
CAM real talk well stated You emphatically said know your place and play your role & there is zero tolerance for excuses, in other words be quiet and execute rise to the occasion and great things will follow. Shouts out to the Atl
Looove the way Cam answers questions!
Peggy looks like he's on line for Kappa in 1965 😂
😂😂😂😂😂Ayo got on some Lawrence fishburn looking shit
Love cam’s perspective and the way he explains it to make sense.
As for Hunter playing most sides… agree w cams opinion, although no one thought anyone could ever handle the volume to do what ohtani is doing, that physical volume within one game in the nfl to play full time both sides, don’t think so.
People have selective hearing. Cam said he can play but cannot start both. Makes sense. As far as safety, he def should not.. NFL is different
Love Cam keeping it real! It takes one to know one.
Well said Cam!!! Great feedback! The NFL is different!
can he play both ways in the NFL? absolutely. SHOULD he play both ways in the NFL is a completely different question. I agree with Cam, it would not be smart at all to have your top 5 or top 10 pick playing above 50% of the snaps on both sides of the ball at that level. I'm sure teams will ask him and make it clear on how they intend to use him, more than likely during the draft process. Put more focus on one side of the ball, then weave him in certain plays and packages on the other side. That will maximize his skillset at the next level
I also think he would be setting himself up for a greater chance of injury playing both ways. I wish he didn't do it now because I'd hate to see him get hurt by being over stretched
great segment 🔥 travis is him
Man I love this channel
I believe Hunter can play between 50-70%, any given Sunday, of all the plays in a NFL football game. It will require a proper gameplan between both the OC & DC on his team.
Cam was one this video all his takes were 100%
Travis, prolly play defense in crunch time 3 snaps at most, at crucial moments
If he smart, he will stick with defense. His route running is avg at best. He don't want to be like Devin Hester where as he talent and fast but don't have a true position.
@@truegrizzlesfan2292 ong , but u get that spotlight on offense, he got a interesting dillema
@@truegrizzlesfan2292bullshit, he’s a avg corner but a elite wr. He was getting bombed on last year by bigger wr’s. Devin focused on returns and took pride in that. He even said he isn’t a true wr
@@truegrizzlesfan2292Nah bro, he gonna get payed at WR
I think it’s the other way around. As much as that receiver money is enticing I have a feeling the corner market is about to boom when Sauce and Sting get payed this offseason that will justify him picking corner(I’m talking 27-29 mil for sauce, he might secure 30 and break the bank open for everyone if he’s 1st team all pro again this year)
Came for Travis Hunter answers, left motivated
Cam is on point. Funny how the haters out there had so much to say about Cams talent and words….he was a good QB won on all levels and even played in a SB. He didn’t win but look how relevant he still is….tip my hate you real Cam keep it up
I love listening to Cam talk.
Where he plays the most will depend on what the team needs. This is the NFL we're talking about...they won't need him on both sides like they need him at Colorado. He can actually take a few plays off at Colorado, he won't be able to do that in the NFL.
I think he's a slightly better WR right now, but if he ended up being a DB full time, he'll be one of the best at the position before he finishes his career. He's that good.

I still don’t understand how you didn’t win that superbowl!
Y’all were so dope that year!
I watched you/yall play with amazement!
And I’m a Steelers fan.
Love hearing you talk ball or wutever really!
You need to be in place of some those fakeazz espn analyst!
Or your show blow da fuckup!
Fareal fareal!!!
Two Statements: See #17, You had Cam Newton call your name! So, Paul Finebaum CU's NOT irrelevant❕️👏🏽👏🏽

4:50 GOD TOLD ME A GREAT PERSON CAN HELP OTHERS IN TIMES OF NEED
A truly great person
Travis Hunter is so cool
That “get the job done” piece is real. To many sensitive people. Tough love is the best love.
Wait one minute. First of all Travis and Shedeur are best friends, second they're both potential Heisman Trophy candidates. This is an example of competition.
Good point Cam hopefully Travis listens cuz its definitely not good for long gevity or your future so dont try to hurt yourself Travis listen to Cam cuz he makes a lot of sense
I thought I was the only person who spoke about managing expectations. As a professional artist, that’s what we do
I see Peggy is STILL in that Olympics' Spirit❕️👏🏽🇫🇷👏🏽🇫🇷👏🏽🇫🇷👏🏽
Bro I'm totally out of words on how crazy it is you didn't get the respect you truly deserved for the way you wrote your legacy by way of play.
I want to see Cam on TV. This is good shit.
Tyreek and Ramsey in one whole day?? 💀 NFL is a monster fr
RG3 and Manziel both had good records when they won the heisman. 10-3 & 11-2
💯 Real Talk.....a great insight on what it takes to be great!
Facts! Love me some Cam!!
Man that Dog comment CAM top tier 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯🤌🏾🤘🏾🙏🏾
I like him as a WR and maybe some nickel packages on defense.
Great point out by cam I have my Travis doubts at times but one thing no one can take from him he is a man above a lot of the football stuff and a dawg at that
Seriously if you think about it he could be first in the depth chart at one position and 4 in the other as a rotational player. He has the talent to do that but he will need some rest and being in the depth chart not as a number 1 on both sides gives him the opportunity. Remember this is the NFL ain’t no way you play a who 17 game regular season and expect to be good for the playoffs too. He’s got to sustain his career.
4:44 my God that was a great catch Travis is the shit
Great content love you cam
Ramsey and Hill in the same game is crazy
Cam you doing an amazing job here Dog...Peggy keep up the content love the show fellas!
🤷🏾 sometimes I'm the heat of the moment things need to be said, when you condense what needs to be said, in an effort to conserve time, to outside listeners it can sound bad... Hire some contractors to do your roof and listen to them communicate🤷🏾 😂
Well said!!!
My dawg might do it fr
Cam , how can i get you to sign my card bro.
You still super cam . The fins need to bring you back bro. You that guy! Super cam! That would be crazzzzzzy. Cam in the dolphins.
For longevity purposes, IF he’s going to focus on one side, it should be offense. But I think he can play both ways. Problem is the wear and tear will eventually add up. That’s just fact. But he can do it.
TI and Cam Newton talk alike and almost sounds alike.
I think Cam is saying that if you are a player, then play...just do what it takes for you to carry out your assignment. Oh and by the way, that includes knowing what the heck you are supposed to be doing.
I think Travis is a NATURAL DB. But an athlete so he thrives at WR as well as
Love your guys show! "now it may come out crazy, but the intent is there." lol..awesome!
Jabrill Peppers is the nfl player most synonymous to Travis
SO REAL!
He has all the talent in the world to be able to play both ways, but there's no way he would have the time to be able to get down and master both positions in the league. Not to mention the added risk of injury with the added reps at the 2nd position. Special packages will absolutely be a thing but like Cam said, no way he is a starter on both sides when he makes it to the NFL.
Peggy love the Brook's Brothers!!
If you know the game...His primary focus is WR...thats what hes gonna play..hes good @ DB..but the challenge & money is @ the Receiver spot..they know playing DB in the league is almost like being a running back...Thats why its important if hes with the right team!
Being A Giant fan I want T. Hunter over Shedeur . We need a lock down corner opposite T. Banks. As for him playing offense/defense We got a lot of WRs . Young guys too. So I agree with Cam. We can definitely put some packages together to get him some targets or touches on O, but full-time??? Both ways? Hell to The Nah!!
Cam finessed this one, my main man. Jokes aside, Cam knows what it takes to be the best, that Heisman Trophy didn’t come easy
Intellect and intelligent are two different things
If he covers 2nd or 3rd WR and play 20+ plays on offense
I think a lot of players could play both ways BUT at the professional level you have to protect your body and take care of it…Especially in terms of durability I think it would be best not to..Not to mention with the volume of plays he’s doing in college right now I think he’d be extremely exhausted.
Let’s be honest Travis is a GREAAAT player, but playing both sides in the NFL one position ALONE is challenging.. this dude gone GET HURT.. everybody GET IT!
Let's say a player had some God tier endurance and could start both ways he'd still have to be that much better than everyone else on both sides of the ball to even make it worth a team risking it.
Real Talk Cam
Thank cam real men understand the assignment is to win.
Travis can definitely play both sides, but "packages" are the key; putting him in on defense for a 3rd and Long could be huge.
Exactly mfs really thinking at the highest level he's going to play both sides EVERY snap 😂 . Put him in a defense package maybe nickel 3rd long type shit . I'm just a casual fan , no way professional media/players don't get it. Makes me think it's a narrative
@@5lime9ordono one that has a working prefrontal cortex believes he could or would most know he’s just gonna play wr
Tbh I think it’ll be better on him to play CB 95% and WR on specific situations. Mainly cause I feel like it’s easier to get in rhythm as a WR than it would be to come in the last 2 minutes of a game and gaurd Ceedee lamb or JJetta.
