There's a contingent of AU fans who are (apparently) shutting out the entire national media and still believe the criticism is just Bammers trolling

Yeah. I got into this weird argument last night with an Auburn fan who equated criticism (and, let's be honest, lots of trolling too) with "bragging." I'm not sure he knows what "bragging" is, but he clearly thinks everyone is attacking Cam for personal self-promoting reasons rather than legitimately being put off by Cam's behavior or, you know, just pissing off Auburn fans. No question lots of y'all are trolling, but they don't get much sympathy from me because they would totally do it if the positions were reversed.

I think some of the criticism of Cam is valid, but McElroy insinuating that Cam "quit" on the team and that his teammates will view him differently is at best conjecture and at worst saying shite to be controversial.

Eh it's not many tho

Most of us have an issue with the idea that Cam "quit on his team" or that "guys are going to look at him different". Dude was the major force behind them even being there and he has shown in the past he is a competitor. And of course a bama grad saying it is going to get extra shite because of the rivalry. It would be the same way if Newton was a bama grad and McElroy was AU. That's just what makes the Iron Bowl the Iron Bowl

Like I said earlier he deserves the crap he is getting because he talks a big game and when he loses it's gonna come back on him. But it really feels like the amount of outrage over him is kinda insane. The focus should really be on how much of a beast Von Miller is and how Denver learned big time from their super bowl beat down a few seasons ago to pursue a top notch defense. Cam didn't lose the game, Denver's front 7 won it
