The press gives him a bad rep for pathetic reasons. He has won MVP. He has been to a SB. And his winning % is not too far from Wilson. He has been very durable and has won their division more than Brees or Ryan.
Is he a prototypical QB? NO. Who said all QBs should all be the same?
As for celebrating: Football is an emotional game. We should let players express themselves and their positive emotions. They are not robots. I don't have a single problem with Cam celebrating 1st downs, TD, nice plays ... etc.

Here's what I think turn a lot of people off about his demeanor. His celebrations come off as "look how good I am" instead of genuine excitement over making a big play WITH his team. People are drawn to enthusiasm and joy, but repulsed by braggarts. Even this could be overlooked or excused as a misinterpretation of his intentions but the nail in the coffin for many is...
...his absolutely childish body language when faced with adversity. Anyone that chooses to "DAB" or "show off his S" or look like he's launching a plane aboard the USS Nimitz after every 2nd Quarter 1st down, should have the backbone to shake a hand and look you in the eye when you beat him. Running to the tunnel immediately after a loss or "toweling up" on the sidelines or his general "my team sucks and they are ruining my greatness" posture just drops the cherry on the Big Baby Cam Sundae. I've coached 8th graders that displayed better maturity. Nobody is being unfair to Cam. Unless you beat him, apparently.
I'm not just being an Old Head either. I generally enjoy the creative team celebrations, my team or not. Cam doesn't do those. He stands on the chair for all to see when "HE" makes a play. He crawls under it when it doesn't go his way.

But he still managed to bounce back and play well after that. It's funny how Cams finally doing the things people doubted him for (60%+ completion) and it's still not enough for some.DangerousDoug":3lca9jyb said:Cam = Ass

The moment Cam threw that pick Carolina was in trouble. Dude is a headcase.
