Agreed, that is almost a first step of sorts, of him taking over the locker room, and putting his foot down on the type of things he doesn't want to here. Don't be telling Cam he can't win, and don't be on my team thinking that poo. #CAMNATION #TAKINOVER

never got that feeling when Fox was here...

Yeah, I love that Cam said that though. Nothing against Greg, as he had the best intentions, and we know Greg wants to win them all as well... But Cam has that "it" that may push others to expect more of themselves. I love that he said that.

careful with that kinda talk. cardiac cat might come to bash on you. then he'll insult your spelling and grammar.

Honestly, to be a player like Michael Jordan who is at the absolute top of your game, you have to be a little bit disfunctional. To have that absolute drive to the point that the thought of losing makes you want to flip, there really has to be a little bit of crazy in there somewhere.

Yeah, on top of the Sportscentury clip DP posted yesterday mentioning the fight with Kerr and Cartwright, I remember reading about how MJ would go ballistic back in college even when he lost Monopoly, lol. So yeah, I can accept our QB not liking a "you can't win them all" statement.

Again, it's not that Greg has a losing mentality, as he wants to win as well, but Cam is showing the characteristics of a franchise player who doesn't want to win, but needs and expects to. And now the team will have to do the same, even Rivera is hinting at it in the presser with "some of us are getting tired of it..."

I've mentioned in various threads how in my own experience in competition, I wasn't a smack talk guy. When I played in juco, I did what I did and I competed my hardest, but I didn't feel like I needed to vocalize a lot of things until it got out of hand. I suspect that's how most players are, and it's guys like Cam that demand more of them that makes them push that much further.

    • Panthers are down by 2 TDs at half. Mike White is brought in in the 3rd and Panthers win by 30
    • The Dolphins are the example of not tieing a team to an overrated QB who can't carry a team. They were so stacked and watched most of their talent go elsewhere so they could pay a mediocre and hurt starting QB too much money. They looked so good beating up bad teams at their peak and couldn't hang with any of the other playoff bound teams. I wonder if getting tossed aside will wake up their HC or if he continues to struggle elsewhere after his early success.  It would be funny if we weren't doing a weaker and dumber version of their build. 
    • It was even worse than that. The following game we were also shutout. Pretty sure.  That Green Bay game, then two goose eggs to end the year.  Followed by the wonderful first two games of 2024. So 4 straight stinkers.    I looked at the box of that GB game a few weeks ago. It was 10 points and around 100-110 yards passing in the first half.  He had two TDS the 4th quarter. Around or close to 200 yards passing in the second half. It was mostly a great 2nd half.    This year’s Dallas game, he played well or turnover free for 4 quarters, had no numbers really but I thought it was his best game. Along with the Atlanta game at the end of 2024. I think the agreement Bay game was at home too, it won’t be this time.  I have to root for him to show something more in these last games  because I think they are going to keep him - so he really needs to be better.
