I've acknowledged his inadequacies in handling losses and dealing with the media. He needs to just not talk.


The challenge with that is - when you invite the camera and demand the attention by dancing, signaling 1st downs, superman shirt ripping, dabbing, running across the end zone with the #1 sign, give balls to kids, do the running jump shot with teammates, grinning all the while and rubbing it in the faces of opposing fan bases TD celebration when things are going your way...

You can't just NOT TALK when things don't go your way.

I've lived in NC for Cam's entire career and his escalation of all of that "stuff" only coincides with their best regular season ever and a SB appearance.

He should use this as an opportunity to grow and mature, not make excuses for his childish post game behavior.

Freakish talent, incredible QB.

Arrogant, self absorbed prick.

Good thing is - people can change.

I understand that, it's not a great look to the general public. I also understand that's why some people don't like him.

My only assertion is that he obviously doesn't care and it obviously doesn't effect his performance on the field or in the locker room. I also think he's made it pretty clear, for better or worse, as long as those things aren't negatively impacted then he's not going to change.
