Watching Sports Nation, guys are talking about an interview he gave where he talks about wanting to be the best to ever play, quoted Ali who said " I was the greatest even before I was the greatest"... so what say you guys, is Cam cocky and does he have a right to be. Also, what are the chances he finishes his career as the GOAT.

Per Websters

cocky: having or showing confidence in a way that is annoying to other people

all I can comment on is the ball player and yeah, he is very cocky.  Which isn't bad for  a NFL player

[Mojo]

Of course he is.  He's also many other positive things (generous, affable, child-like enthusiasm) but he's definitely cocky. It's a necessity at that position, in this sport, with every single eye on him inside and outside of the huddle.  Him being cocky gives me confidence as a Panther fan.  

Jordan chewed the hell out of that gum and swagged around tongue out.  Cam ain't different.

yeah

me personally false modesty gets under my skin way worse

Every QB in the league had better be extremely confidant, bordering on cocky.  This is just what it takes to lead a team

As someone who constantly gets incorrectly called cocky, I remind people of the difference:

 

Cocky is what you are when you aren't good, but think you are.

 

Confident is when you're fugging awesome and have all the abilities to back it up.

 

So yes, Cam and I, are pretty confident people.

[TheRumGone]

Without a doubt

Who cares? Most great players are you only have a problem with him being cocky if you have a problem with Cam the individual. fug these guys. 

[IGSaint]

Isn't wanting to be the best the point of playing sports? Like can these media people drop their psychotic obsession with everything Cam does? It has gone far past annoying at this point.

Cam is most definitely cocky like the majority of pro athletes. He is just more in apologetic than most. He also can back it up more than most which makes him one of those players you love when he's on your team but loathe it he's not. The same way almost all non patriots hate Tom Brady.

[shaqattaq]

fug yes he's cocky!  Why the hell would you want a QB that wasn't cocky? 

[Jon Snow]

You damn straight he is!  If I had his abilities and his good looks I would be mushroom stamping my through the league on my way to the hall of fame, and not give two poo's what anyone thinks.  You be you Cam.

Yes he is.  He's not for everyone.  But he is for me.

A few weeks ago I decided to cut ties with a college friend who is fiercely anti Cam, mostly because of race. He actually calls him $cam and roots for him and the Panthers to lose more than he roots for his own team to win (which changes each year). He really hates Cam.  He would call this video classless and really arrogant. But I love it. Hence why he and I are no longer friends.

[Chimera]

I'd rather have a guy striving to be the greatest than have a guy striving to be good enough.
