Would Newton be in the right to refuse to play?

As long as Byron Bell continues to start?

Obviously he wouldn't, but it makes me wonder. We routinely hear every offseason off players riding off into the sunset in the midst of their prime because they have to think of their future. Our very own Jordan Gross did it this past year. It makes me wonder if a player would be in the right do such a thing given what Cam is facing this season. The front office failed him horribly, and I don't know that I have ever seen a player as outmatched by the opposition as Byron Bell is on a weekly basis.

Again, I don't think that he would-but I've reached a point where I feel sorry for him as a man and can't help but wonder if he'd be in the right to look out for his long term health. Byron Bell had no business being appointed the guy, and it was apparent to everyone but the front office who were enamored with Bell's get rowdy chants and aw shucks blue collar attitude-but those things don't win football games.

So my only question is, do you feel he'd be justified?

I had always thought the idea of him leaving was ridiculous.

But Im starting to believe its possible. Our team is more concerned with handing out freebies to good ole boys like Byron Bell than with going after what really matters- talent.

Its hard to believe the ultra competitve Cam wouldnt have a problem with that.

      Give Legette another season?

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.

      Nah we just talking about giving a platform and normalizing predators (who both beat women) opinions and celebrating it if it fits your narrative.  If that's fun I'm fine being a miserable fug by not supporting P.O.S like that. N b4 you call me a libtard or some other dumb ish know I'm an Anarchist/Libertarian and believe both these dudes should get a complete ass whooping (at min) or something worse for what they have done to women in this world.
