But at the same time, Cam needs to have some awareness of the influence he has. He's the reason High School coaches across the nation are letting athletic guys the size of linebackers give QB a shot. He's a mobile QB who is difficult to injure. We've never seen a guy like that before. Sulking is a bad look for him. I don't think he's a bad dude, and I haven't been the type who criticized him for his touchdown dances or trash talk. He's fun, and good for the game.

But while he has so much fun while winning, it would be nice if he could recognize that influence he has and handle adversity a little better. He's 26 years old. He's far too young to act like its the end of the world. Odds are, the Panthers will probably be the best, or one of the best, teams in the NFC again next season with Kelvin Benjamin coming back. Have to respond a little better to a loss if you're going to be the face of the league.
