Why so much hate...?

Yeah, why don't you just admit that you believed the BS you heard about Cam in the media. Every QB shows they disgust for losing in different ways. Stop trying to turn what Cam does into more than what it is...media fodder. Cam is a QB in sports, not a CEO of a company. Stop trying to turn them into one and the same because they are not. I seriously doubt Cam would go and throw a towel over his head if his company's stock fell.

You clearly spend way to much time listening and watching ESPN. Remember, they were the ones who fueled the Aubun/Bama rage by accusing Cam's father of sellng Cam to Auburn without a single stitch of proof and only because Cam was minority. Remember Bama is the school who believe their own dominance in the SEC and believe if Auburn didn't "pay for Cam" they would be four for four in C wins. Sickness is churning the hate for Cam.

Cam is not where he needs to be. Blame the media if you want. I hope Cam does not share this attitude because if he does, he will not get better.

There are many players in the NFL who have to deal with the media--I think the number is, "all of them."

Cam's criticisms were justfied--his praise is too. He gets both, and, to be honest, the media has been spot on most of the time.

Cam is a great talent, but his attitude is a significant issue. 1. Imagine you were office manager and every time something went wrong, you pouted, went into your office and threw a towl over your head. What would the office climate be like?

It is not hate for me, but it is concern. I did not want Cam, primarily because i was concerned about his character. He could be great, but right now, he needs to be led. We want him to lead.

You could argue that he was better down the stretch. Was that because we were winning, or did his positive attitude cause us to win? I understand his frustration and cannot imagine how frustrating it is to see Hangartner's name on the back of his jersey pressing into your facemask---we need to protect him more.

2 Cam's attitude is based on the pressure he puts on himself. He was frustrated because the playbook was too thick for him. That is why he was holding the ball so long during the first half of the season--thinking too much.

Growing Pains. 3 We want the confident, smiling Cam running the team, not the upset-with-himself Cam.

1. I'd imagine it would be just fine considering he has his towel over head even when we are winning and/or have the victory locked up. He literally does it all the time, probably to keep heat in so he doesn't feel like he's not warmed up.

2. You don't think not running slant routes, quick outs and flat passes had anything to with it. Go watch the tape, just about every time we passed and Cam faced immediate pressure there isn't a receiver visible on the camera, they are all running downfield routes. The only reason it looked better the second half was because we weren't running the read option 15 times a game which allowed DEs to pin their ears back and gun for the backfield.

I don't even know where you came up with this excuse of him over thinking or being unable to handle the volume of a playbook. You have no sources of information for this, no evidence from his play and didn't even steal this from some hack journalist. You literally just made that up and have cemented yourself into being no better than the journalists who publish lies about Cam holding up the team bus or spending thousands at strip clubs. Maybe you should join the media.

3. Yea I'd love it if Cam was smiling like he'd just won the super bowl after every game he lost. Let me know the next time you see Brady, Brees, Rodgers or either Manning smiling like a heroin addict on a new dose of smack after a loss - even better while they are getting their ass beat in the middle of a game. Just because you can sense Cam's dissatisfaction more than other QBs doesn't effect his play on the field one bit.

I should folllow your lead and be more unbiased. Rivera stating that Chud simplified the playbook was due to a biased media. Everybody knows that. Leadership, whether the team is winning or losing, is not sitting on the end of the bench with a towel over your head provided by one of your sponsors.

If you were never on a team, never a leader, I don't expect you to understand. You will give Cam all the credit for a winning streak and blame the other 52 players when they lose.

Until Cam wins regularly against quality competition, he will be criticized. Not all negatve criticism is an attack against cam because there is some unwritten rule to get him.

    • Possible, he is physical and a forchecker but not a needle mover, but i wouldnt mind it    
    • The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.
