Monarrez: Newton loses Super Bowl and maybe fans

Superman?

Hardly. Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton mumbled his way through a 2 1/2-minute news conference after losing Super Bowl 50, and for that, he deserves a new nickname.

Stuporman.

Newton, he of the dabbing and the mom-kiss-blowing and of the Superman poses, gave one of the all-time worst postgame news conferences I’ve seen after the Denver Broncos beat the Panthers, 24-10, on Sunday.

Newton wore a hooded sweatshirt with his hoodie fully deployed over his head. He bobbed and weaved and pursed his lips and shook his head and looked like anything but a winner, a leader or a role model.
