Cam pouting at the podium

[Matthias]

In spite of the thread and the fairweather fan stuff going on at the moment, Cam did give all his detractors fresh ammunition tonight in the way he walked away from reporters.  Emotional guy or not, you simply can't do that!  I don't care how unfair things are for all of panther nation, you have to man up in this situation.

MVP, 18-2, Off MVP....you can't dab when you win and then walk off the podium when you lose. Be a leader, suck it up, answer the questions and stop acting like that.  

Supported you and still will but that was bush league. And anyone who says it wasn't doesn't get it.  Own it. 

We had a great season and I'm proud of our team. But you have to suck it up and own it. You can be disappointed and upset with a loss and that's fine. But you need to have some grace and humility as well. That was disappointing. 

Greg Olsen, TD, Luke handled it the right way, I just wish the leader of our team and the face of the franchise would have done the same.

I don't blame him. He's hurt, he realized early on the the refs and the league weren't going to call the game fair, so he pressed...and it got him and our team off their game.

Didn't see the presser, just seeing a clip on twitter.  Looks bad.  Sad that this loss, and his poor press conference is going to be what everyone remembers the night after he won MVP.

Cam has had an amazing season.  It so hurts to see it end like this.  Gonna stoke up the hate, I'm afraid.

This right here made absolutely no fuging sense, he should have dove on that poo like a live grenade trying to earn a mother fuging purple heart of honor, instead of stepping back like a bitch. He literally killed the last chance we had with that nonsense.

I understand, but he just gave his haters something to hold on to and I don't feel like hearing it.

They were gonna take something regardless, Cam is ALWAYS gonna be a punching bag if he loses. Doesnt matter how...long as he is not the Winner. This should have been understood a long time ago.

Just saw the interview at the podium...not a good look on him.  More fuel on the fire for people that want to hate him.

Guess the "fan base" is not happy with just winning games in the regular season or even playoffs...when the grand prize is the Superbowl...call them crazy..

So it's ok for the fanbase to pout and not Cam? 

Its just total fair weather for so many not to care when they think we will suck, then ride the wagon to 15-1, dominate the playoffs and then loose,..then it's back to the haterade.

30 other teams didn't make the Super Bowl. We weren't supposed to be there but we were. 

There are ducks and Eagles in this world.

choose to quack or soar

Cam truly is still a kid at heart.  He will continue to grow up and mature.   He just really, REALLY hates to lose.

I see Shelby panther lurking furiously giving pie to this guy, lol look at the cockroaches scramble.

yeah Tommy True fan, you're the best. Sorry for pointing out that I was surprised our leader looked like the opposite postgame. For all the talk about his maturity, he did go 15-1. When we lost a big one, he reverted back.

Yes I would prefer that Cam was a robot.  But he's not.

Delhomme was pretty emotional after his SB loss too - it didn't make ESPN the next day though.  I wonder if Cam's will?  Time will tell.

I agree its a bad look, but Cam wears his heart on his sleeve. Its part of why we love him so much, when he wins he is happy and shows it, and when he loses, especially the biggest game of his life, he is sad and upset and also shows it.

You cant control the world, but you can control the way you react to it.

Cam is the man, and I support him no matter what... but OP is right, he did not handle himself well at the podium. I feel bad because the detractors will attack him for it.

Probably nothing though, because I think Can picks up next year just as good as he was this year.

We all learn more from our failures than we do from our successes.

Cam has likely learned more today about himself and the game of football than he has in quite some time.

He will be back next year better than ever.

People that want to hate him need no fuel.

Even "fans" on this forum.

Fug them with a rusty rebar.
