Brian Urlacher: Not A Fan Of The Way Cam Newton Celebrates
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Celebrating, dabbing, chewing gum, smiling, laughing, yelling, and most important, winning.
Cam Newton is arguably the most polarizing athlete in sports right now.
While his talent is undeniable, the Carolina Panthers' likely MVP quarterback celebrates rather pretentiously. His flamboyant play actually irritates a lot of people, including former Chicago Bears eight-time Pro Bowl linebacker Brian Urlacher.
"I played defense so I don't like when guys celebrate with dances and stuff," Urlacher said via USA Today.

Urlacher appreciates the style of Newton's opposing quarterback in Super Bowl 50, future Hall Of Famer Peyton Manning.
"You know who I like the way he celebrates is Peyton," Urlacher continued. "He kind of gives the guy a handshake and goes back to the sidelines. I think that's a great celebration right there," he said. "You don't see him dancing. You don't see him doing all of that stuff. Even when he gets a first down he doesn't do anything."
