Cam's first-down celebrations really bother a lot of people. Why?

[rayzor]

it's a shame that people have opinions and prefer that people act a certain way.

 

a damn shame a tell you.

 

what we need around here is a lack of opinions. i think that would make the world a better place.

I don't know...1st downs are a pretty big deal for this offense.

The question is will he be doing this first down celebrations when he is 30yrs old? I am not bothered by it though.

Is this a generational thing? My dad has never once criticized Cam until he told me how much he hates his first-down celebrations out of the blue yesterday. People at the office are ripping him for it. Even Jim Celania who we all love and who loves Cam was calling Cam out for the first-down finger point.

 

Am I the only one that truly doesn't get the big deal about it at all? People seem to not care about that at all as long as we're winning. The second we lose and/or Cam doesn't play well, it's all about how awful the first-down celebration is.

 

This is Year 4. Is this something Cam needs to get rid of like the towel over the head to appease the haters?

 

I haven't read through the entire thread but its not the celebrations that bother me.  Its the fact that he will then sulk on the sidelines if things aren't going well.  Cam needs to stay positive throughout the game.

My thing is 

 

Why are you celebrating EVERY 1st down? 

 

A TD? sure. A crucial 3rd down conversion at a pivotal point in the game? sure. A huge / explosive run or pass play? sure. 

 

But a generic basic every 1st down? I am not sure about that.

Everything cam does is hated upon. I truly do not understand it. Never seen one qb so scrutinized in my life

As long as celebrating doesn't take away from the focus on the game, i don't see the problem. His point lasts like 2 secs. What's the big deal?

Brady celebrates every rushing first down he gets, and he's what? 57?

No he doesn't.

No he doesn't.

 

 

 

 

 

[pstall]

Brady also throws 5 tds in obe game so...

[mc52beast]

The "Point" is no big deal IMO... but it would be great if we saw more Superman after scoring td's

[carolina-chuck]

it's because he is black

Wilson isn't black enough.

Cam is too black.

You said every first down he gets. That's not true.
