Had to be from that second QB sneak.

Listed as day to day.

Steve Smith was right on the money if that's how it happened.

Wonder if Talib will see a fine for that bitch move?

[panther4life]

Ya that should be a fine on that dude that hit him, talib wasnt it? Also it was very nice to see Smitty sticking up for Clausen

f*ck talib

On top of the fine, it should have been a defensive penalty for hitting a defenseless receiver and the game should have been extended an extra play. Instead, Smith got the penalty and the game ended.

Tommy Jone?

[realstandman]

I doubt he will get fined. On a QB sneak the QB becomes a runner and helmet to helmet is a legal hit. It was cheap but within the rules.

Clausen got hit in the head twice on that play...2nd one was malicious. i was glad to Smith go after they guy. Great to see he got fired up about the QB. Might do the team some good.

Hope they do nto bring Clausen back too fast like they did with Matt. Also hope the Bucs player gets a suspension.

I got no problem w/ Smitty going after Talib.

that said, Clausen wasn't a defenseless reciever. He was essentially a running back trying to gain yardage to get into the endzone.

I thought the new rule was about intentional helmet to helmet, period.

as much of a douche as talib is, i put more blame on the play caller than anyone on the field. one QB sneak was ok...if it doesn't work, try something else. a second one is not only predictable, it's putting the QB at greater risk for injury.

fox/davidson have themselves to blame for this predicament.

Talib won't be fined. Wanna know why? Because we're the Panthers, that's why.

Talib had time after clausen was stopped to run halfway across the field and spear him. It's not a defenseless receiver, it was just unnecessary roughness, AND a late hit. Either could have been called.

Talib should be suspended for the season. There's no place for that type of play in football.
