Reply to comment by fallynangell in Cam Newton: I’m better than current QBs in the NFC South by ShihPoosRule

A talented athlete but a pussy as a competitor. What's that old movie quote? " He'd rather look good and lose than look bad and win."

“Pussy as a competitor” what? Cam isn’t better than the NFC South QBs currently but he was very dominant in his prime. The dude didn’t shrug off contact and was as fiery/competitive as they come. as a Panthers fan, this kind of revisionist history is extremely annoying from the casual NFL fan.

Jumped out of the way of a fumble rather than recover it during a Superbowl game on a play that was critical to the outcome of the game. You're welcome.

Biggest game of his life and he’s not willing to lay it all on the line to win. His post game outfits support the theory he was too concerned with his image and not hungry enough to do whatever it takes to win.

I have to agree. You whole career led up to that and you casually noped out of the way. It was eight in front of him! And that was the end

One play does not maketh the man. Cam will always be one of the greats in Carolina. But his sun has set, even if he doesn’t think so.

That one play certainly defines his career. The only highlight clip he will be really known for. Bitched out on the biggest play of his life.

One play can’t make a man, but one play can break a man and that’s exactly what not diving on the fumble did
