I think it's time Cam cut down on the celebrations.

I was thinking about this for awhile and I think for the next few games Cam needs to cut down on his more elaborate/superman celebrations. I know it may sound like an overreaction but I'm looking at this from a psychological perspective. And by that i mean towards the fallout it causes. I think it's safe to say that Cam hates losing and i love that about him. I think he's genuine when he talks about how disgusted losing makes him feel. But I also think he's having a much, much harder time dealing with it than he lets on and the media is not helping at all. That's why I think he needs to calm down on the "superman" and A-stomp" celebrations for now. After the Giants loss the media has been honing in on his celebrations as a target to criticize him. Even watching the NFl.com highlights of todays game they started questioning Cams endzone celebration against the Falcons. I have a feeling that if he does one of those celebrations and doesn't win he will continue to be ridiculed by all forms of sports media and his maturity and leadership scrutinized more than it should be and right now he can't handle the constant character assassination. He can celebrate with his teammates but i think his more flamboyant celebrations should be shelved until the "W's" start piling up and the networks aren't ripping him for them.

Who cares about the media. Let Cam be Cam.

The point wasn't about whether you cared. I love his celebrations but as long as he does it and we lose he is going to be personally criticized and i think "he" feels it more than he wants to admit. This isn't the same as at Auburn where he could deal with the scolding by going undefeated. He's being called out for being a loser and he can't refute that and no one is giving him any latitude. I'm not asking for him to not celebrate but use more subdued ones for now until he can put more W's in the column. It gives everyone else less venom to throw his way and it makes these all the more sweeter when he doesn't need to be attacked for them.

I actually thought about this today when Cam did his thing on the TD run. The thing that bothered me was that some of the lineman were around him (I think Gross in particular was trying to congratulate him) and Cam just went on and did his thing basically ignoring the guys who helped him get there. That bothered me from a team perspective. When Cam does these things it seems to be more about Cam than the team.

I get that guys want to celebrate but when you are in a leadership position such as at QB...try to include your teammates in it if they are right there with you.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
