Ryan Clark has a different POV on why Cam is hated.

There is definitely a racial issue with the casual fans and general public. However everyone here hates nearly everyone on any other team so diehard nfl nerds never even get to race before finding a reason to hate a player.

You know, I think the man is right. That's not to say that there isn't also a race issue, but a lot of people don't understand that Cam is simply being Cam.

They want Cam to express zero emotion, hand the ball to the ref after a touchdown, and keep the smiling to a minimum. Now Cam isn't going to do that, he shouldn't have to do that, and it's not whats in the best interest of the team. The team feeds off of his energy, and it's part of the reason that we are where we are.

Don't get wrapped up in stuff you can't quantify. 

You will go insane chasing an elusive rabbit. 

There are people who complain about the taxes after winning the lottery.  Let that sink in.

 

and there are people killing people based on their race.

let that sink in.

You missed the part where i said being unable to quantify. 

Enough of the self-righteousness. We're talking about not liking someone or something they do.

People kill for a myriad of reasons.

Why do we say white culture and why do we say black culture. It's because they are linked.

It's why you hear people call rg3 and RW cornball brothers. It's wrong because they can't change who they are as people just like cam isn't going to change who he is and the background in which he grew up. 

So when you hear people say they don't like black culture what do you think that really means? I mean what happened just this offseason with Cam on Facebook posting a picture of him and his buddies after an ATV outing? I'm sorry but this is a bullshit excuse. Educate yourself, step outside your comfort zone.

      Where do you fall on the Bryce Young spectrum?

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I have seen little inclination that they are laying down on him, that I can agree with. I don't think we are going to ever see much in the way of unfiltered opinions in the public realm from his teammates because that's extremely rare and extremely toxic behavior.  It's certainly a positive thing that they support him but, again, that doesn't make a successful NFL starting QB. Playing well on Sunday's does.  That is what has been lacking to date. He is not playing well consistently enough to be considered an NFL starting QB. He has to improve there. Be more consistent. Be more decisive. Make correct decisions more frequently.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      That's fine but for every Kurt Warner there are 10 Tony Banks that don't find their spot because....it never really existed.  Jake Browning was on and off practice squad teams for years until he stuck in Cincy. In his limited action over the past two seasons, he has played well enough that the Bengals panic traded for 41 year old Joe Flacco. It's easy to point to outliers like Warner or Purdy or Tom Brady as players who fell through the cracks because....well, they are outliers. The statistics over the long term have never really borne out the argument that every QB is just waiting for their perfect spot and situation. Most of these guys bounce around the league and it just never really clicks anywhere or they become marginal backup QB's. I don't think that exactly an accident. It's tough to be a starting NFL QB and it's why the hunt every offseason is so frantic. There are just so few that do it at a high level. My guess is that a theoretical market for Bryce Young(today) is going to look a lot like that post Chicago Justin Fields market. Not a lot of interest and a late round pick value at the highest. And a lot of that IS going to be his average to below average physical traits. It's extremely tough to be in that range and excel in the NFL. And it's precisely because you DO have to be closer to perfection to make up for the fact that you can't do a lot of the things that the elite to above average starters in this league do.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By Seltzer · Posted

      Im never not impressed by how confidently wrong you are. I've watched probably 200 NFL QBs play live. This talk about Bryce's arm strength is retarded, pure and simple. Bryce can make every throw an NFL QB needs to make in any circumstance. Does he have an arm that makes you go wow all the time? No, but very few QBs truly do. Bryce has plenty of zip on the ball when he wants. That TD to XL was a frozen rope. He throws to the opposite hash and outside all the time with no problem. Bryce's arm is objectively stronger than Cam's post-injury. I've seen both live multiple times and I know. And Cam could still play QB well without his rocket launcher. OPs point remains. QB success relies on a lot of nebulous things. Obviously you dont like Bryce. But his success is not going to be bc he doesn't have the arm strength. Its embarrassing this is a thing. Go to some games and actually educate yourself.
