Both sides are dumb in the Cam debate. He's not a pussy because of that one play in the Super Bowl, and he's not an all-time QB

He's a better passer, sure. And young hoy lucky to have Rice and a HOF OL to make him look better. Young can't touch Cam as a runner

What auburn/Carolina fans overlook is the fact that everybody loves seeing an obnoxious, cocky, over-the-top character come crashing down to earth.

They loved all his antics because he's their guy - it turns out that most other people love to see guys like that fail and be humbled.

Everything else is moot, honestly.

He’s the best computer hacker in the league.

Ever since college he’s had that talent.

Cam is still having a pretty good year. He’s been humbled to play with such a shitty OL and WRs though.

All of this plus his very public pouting when things don’t go his way.

How is he any more cocky than any NFL QB? You have to be cocky to play QB. A white QB like Favre gets praised for being a "competitive gunslinger" but Cam gets bashed for being cocky

And you only thibk he's obnoxious because you already don't like him. The only thing he doesn't do that Brees doesn't do is dance a little

At a certain point the QB plays a role in the OL and WR production.

Look at Washington once they went to Cousins from RGIII... Sacks cut in half and WR production up.

And he quite literally regularly commits acts of philanthropy and charity, mostly for CHILDREN, and LSU/Saints, Bama, and UGA fans still regularly attack and call him a thug

He makes it easy with his ridiculous antics. Showboating after running for first downs while down big, pouting with his little towel on the sideline, ridiculous outfits, etc.

All the while being a slightly above average QB whose biggest attribute is that he’s big and can run.

Do agree with you about his philanthropic work, but he is an a-hole on the field.

Succeed in life. Fail on the field.

People don't hate on skill position players for doing that stuff. And they LOVE it when a white QB like Baker Mayfield does the same exact stuff.

Why is it only a problem for Cam?

Cam has pretty fricking successful in the field.

Much more so than any QB that's ever come out of USC, Arkansas, LSU or whatever school you root for
