Overconfidence refers to a biased way of looking at a situation and misjudge your abilities and have more confidence than you should. It doesn't mean he wasn't strong or brave. He was both of those but also overconfident.

Exaggerate: to make something out to be bigger than it actually is. When I said everyone, in reality it was me overhearing a conversation between him and Aela. Did I really have to lay that one out for you?

I was talking gameplay and the whole Greybeards teaching you a bit about shouts (Unrelenting Force and Whirlwind Sprint).

She: who do you think I'm talking about? "Depending on your playstyle she can be overconfident as well." Who do you play as? I thought we were talking about the game called Skyrim where you play as the Dragonborn? Rofl, I bet you're the kind that only thinks the Dragonborn is male and Nord...typical male. Dragonborn can be Nord, Imperial, Argonian, Khajiit, Redguard, Orc, High/Dark/Wood Elf. Dragonborn can be male or female. I refer to the Dragonborn as female because most of my characters are female. You, and most everyone, refers to the Dragonborn as male. It should not matter what pronoun one uses to refer to the protagonist when the game developers gave players the choice of gender and race.

As for the Kodlak thing, that's what people are doing here. Speculating on how he died. Though it is painfully obvious that he was taken by surprise. They all were. He didn't die from a disease. He was laying down next to a dead Silver Hand inside Jorrvaskr, with a wounded Athis not to far away and three dead Silver Hands outside. There was a bunch of witnesses who saw it.
