“What’s arrogant is that superman TD thing he does..hate it. Hate it with any QB, not just him. It was wise of Rodgers to stop doing that belt thing which I also hated.”
——————————-
Aaron only does the belt when he rushes for TDs, same for Cam, last I checked, it takes a lot of Hard work to become an NFL QB and this is america, they should be allowed to do their “Taunts/dances” when they score TDs.

If you think it’s “arrogant”, then put on some pads and go stop the guy from scoring, or better yet, go watch a chess match between computers, this is competitive sports, if you’re too sensative, then quit watching ma’am….
____________________________
Congrats, you are the only person in history who&#039;s ever called me &quot;too sensitive&quot;. Usually I get called &quot;too blunt&quot;. :D

I think it&#039;s disrespectful for someone in a position of leadership to perform a &quot;ME ME ME&quot; gesture when they score because I believe that leaders should in all things (gestures, words, actions) be mindful of crediting their teammates and taking little to none  for themselves. You don&#039;t agree. You&#039;re entitled to your opinion as am I. We&#039;re allowed to have different opinions without your telling me to watch knitting or chess  instead of football aren&#039;t we?]]></description>

It&#039;s Cam&#039;s and the Panthers offense job to score, whether through the air or on the ground.  Which the Panthers are top 5 scoring offense.

		<description><![CDATA[He is right that team was horrible last year, and was way to complacent.  As a Redskins fan I know the ills of terrible play from the top on down.  One big problem is we can&#039;t expect the team to raise it&#039;s level to that of Rex Grossman.  So Carolina is in much better shape than the Skins just based on that premise alone]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am reminded of another young quarterback that didn&#039;t experience a lot of losing before coming to the NFL.  This quarterback has taken his team from 1-4 to atop the AFC west after taking over.  I am not a Tebow fan; frankly he annoys me, but I couldn&#039;t imagine Tim Tebow saying something like what Cam said about his own team.  I&#039;m just saying.  

Just because something is true doesn&#039;t mean it is right to say it.  My 4-year-old knows that.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#039;s 13 passing touchdowns.  Quarterbacks are, and probably always will be judged by touchdowns THROWN.

I don&#039;t care how many he rushes for.  If he throws more INTs than TDs then he&#039;s got a ton of work left to do, and should consider keeping his trap shut.

I just don&#039;t know about the qb on a losing team popping off at the mouth about how great he is.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yes he has thrown some picks but come on.
He is 12 games into his rookie season and he has 3,300 passing yards with 13 TDs and a 82.4 passer rating and has rushed for 518 yards with another 13 TDs.
He is on pace to throw for 4,400 yards with 17 TDs and rush for 700 yards with another 17 TDs.

How often does a rookie QB account for almost 5,000 yards of offense and 34 TDs?
Anyone that does not want their team&#039;s QB (not just a rookie QB) to put up those kind of numbers is clueless about football.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I agree with what he says in this interview, if you actually listen to it in context he makes a lot of great points and sounds like the kind of QB any team would dream of having. He wants to keep getting better and is never content, and just wants his teammates to have the same drive as he does. Doesn&#039;t seem like a guy who&#039;s going to slack off and get content with where he&#039;s at.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cam Newton&#039;s criticism is extremely self-centered.  Steve Smith is the Panthers player having the best year.  Take away Weeks 1 &amp; 2 and Cam&#039;s passing performance is mediocre at best (2443 yards 10 TD and 10 INT).  Perhaps if Cam was on Steve’s level, Steve would be league leader.

As a minority man myself, I take great offense to the &quot;race card&quot; being played here. You can blame the &quot;media&quot; all you want for &quot;twisting&quot; it, but I think it came out just the way he wanted it to. Newton is arrogant and full of himself and that has nothing to do with him being an African American.  A little arrogance is good, but not when you throw your team under the bus and position yourself as being better than they are.  The fact that you are implying that he is being called arrogant because of his race is ridiculous.  Since you brought up Ozzie Guillen, what does his race have to do with his chronic lack of tact? So I guess he curses everyone out because he&#039;s a minority? Dude, throw the &quot;race card&quot; out of your deck and play the rest of your hand. SMDH.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I love Cam&#039;s attitude. He&#039;s not saying he is better than the team, he is saying that he seems to be one of the only players who hasn&#039;t been accustomed to playing for a team with a losing mentality. He has the desire to win despite being on a team with a losing culture, and I think that is an infectious attitude that will allow him and his team to accomplish everything they strive for. 

I never understood all the hate towards Cam. Yes his recruitment to Auburn may have been shady, but a ton of players around the nation have been involved in these under the table deals. It&#039;s a flaw in the NCAA&#039;s system that athletes can&#039;t really do anything for pocket money. Cam has always been a hard worker with a great attitude and I think it&#039;s ridiculous how much people are rooting for him to fail. I hope he keeps proving people wrong because he has all the makings of a great QB]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cam is not an elite or superior QB, as far as, the media is concerned. It&#039;s clear everything he says and does will be treated in the attitude of &quot;is he being arrogant&quot; because of that. 

There was nothing he said in that interveiw Rivera had not already expressed about Cam and the Panthers. 

When a coach says publically that he wished he had 11 more Cam&#039;s on his team when asked, that is pretty much saying what Cam stated in the interview the media is trying to spin into something more.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are players on every team who don&#039;t really care about losing as long as they are getting paid. We&#039;ve all seen interviews in the locker room of a losing team where you hear laughter in the background... some guys are just glad to be in the NFL and getting paid, sure they would rather win but either way, they are getting paid. 

This is what bothers Cam and he must have felt like he needed to say something about it in a public forum. On a team coming off a 2-14 season with a coach that had an &quot;it is what it is&quot; attitude like Fox, there are inevitably a few guys who have adopted a losers attitude and Cam wants them to step up or get out.]]></description>
