He just seems so arrogant on the field. A QB should not be like that. Every little play he has to showboat.

I just wish someone would put him in place.

He's another NFL player, among many, who desperately seems to need an ego and reality check. The immaturity level acceptable in the NFL has turned into a big turnoff to me period.

Better get used to it. He's learning how to play the position at this level and getting better all the time.

Cam Newton looks like a chocolate Gumby.

Go look at the press conference he gave -> guy competes on the field, is growing up off of it.

I saw that. Cam has great respect for TB and the Pats, and that shows a lot. Kid is growing up every week and he looked so calm out there no matter the situation. He is always giving some kid in the stands the football, which is awesome...Great game ruined by a stupid Ref who should have kept the flag in his pocket......Great game Golden, I expect a repeat, but in the SB...LOL....Good luck!!

U know, Cam's come a long way from his early year antics. He's matured and finally understands the concept of team. Dude has his team among the leaders in the NFC. That's a milestone.

I don't agree with your take on the call, but Brady played great tonight. Cam sailed some balls on underneath routes that Tom B just nails. TB can hit the deep ball accurately, but has had that chemistry with Welker, and now Amendola, to grind out yards on small mistakes by the D.

This is how kaepernick shows up to all of his pressers. The one this week he had tape covering the b on his headset. Guess the league talked to him about it so instead of taking the headset off he just grabbed tape.

This small pic is the only one I could find of the latest presser and you can't really make out the tape.

So this guy not only kisses his arm after every decent play he actually has and does other youthful arrogance on the field, but he dresses like a high school kid after games in his press conferences.

You really think Cam is worse? No way.

When things are good it is easy to be a good guy. - Brady is a good example, he seems well together when things are going well, but when they're not he can turn into a moody girl.

Kaep is a juvenile compared to Cam. It took a few years but Cam finally "Get's It". Kaep won't last that long.

Hard to say. He sure doesn't appear to want to conform or otherwise fit in with the social norm of what is expected of team leaders, but he isn't that old. Something could come along and humble him.

My point was you can't point out what is a perception of Cam's youth and ignore maybe the most glaring case of it out of a QB maybe ever.

As for Kaep making it in the league? He has an above average arm and good speed. He was probably a victim of his own quick success with the pieces he had around him, but it is way too early to know if he can mature in his progressions and decision making under pressure.

It scares à lot of people that Cam is learning how to win.
