There Was This One Play.... Little Help?

Relatively early on in the game, Cam broke from the pocket and ran up the middle for a just a couple yard gain and did one of his patented awkward non-slide falls. The Falcon LB (Bartu?) planted both his knees into Cam and actually had his calf/shin on Cam's helmet. On slow-mo replay, the guy put all of his weight on that leg on the side of Cam's helmet when he got up, his right foot came off the carpet.

 

Cam got up and had some words with the guyu and looked like he was going after him, but backed off.

 

Will this be looked at by the league? Possible fine? Or just forgotten about... until next year's first game.

I think that RR can request for the league to take a look, but after that asswhipping, he may just let it ride.

I may be the only one but I'm not so sure suh did it on purpose. He didn't even look back. It was nothing like burfict and his ufc moves.

If he did it accidentally then wouldn't he look back to see what he stepped on? The first one might have been accidental but he knew very well what he was doing the second time.

Suh's step was most certainly on purpose.  Like ooglechi said, the first step could be an accident, but stepping back again, squarely on the ankle (as if the first step allowed him to locate the perfect spot to place the second step) and THEN putting all his weight on that foot to push off of?  That's intentional.  No question.

 

The falcon's knee could have been an accident.  He didn't look like he was going out of his way to put his knee on Cam's helmet and that leg was the natural one to put weight on to stand up.  I understand Cam's getting angry, it probably didn't feel good getting his head twisted around like that, but it wasn't a clearly intentional attempt to cause injury like what Suh did.

i dont think Suh did it intentionally either... unless he can see out his butthole how could he "target" the calf??

 

By finding the ankle (not calf) with his first step he knew where the ankle was going to be for the second.  If you were stepping backwards and stepped on something as big as someone's ankle, would you continue to keep stepping in that direction?  Highly unlikely.  The fact that he didn't react says even more it was intentional.  If someone steps on something they don't see they usually react to see what it was they stepped on.  Not so much if they already know what they're stepping on...

How'd he know it was an ankle?  From the feelers in his cleat?  His a$s eye saw it?

 

It coulda been anything... and he didnt step on the ankle... more like clipped it. 

 

The slow mo makes it look worse than it was.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By strato · Posted

      On offense, QB and RB are a thing. QB needs to improve a fair amount, and the RBs have me unsure if they can match last year’s  level. Brooks being the big mystery. It seems like they think he is good to go, they didn’t do that much to ad insurance.    You have to think the defense will be better. We are young in a lot of places and can hope for some growth from a few guys, as the season progresses.    I think other teams in our division helped themselves too though. Every single one of them picked in front of us for three days and took players we might have taken over who was there for us.

      Trevin Wallace - One Final Shot...or is Cherelus someone to watch?

      ??? Trevin is a lot of things, but slow is not one of them.

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm holding out hope for Wallace and I feel like Dan wants this LB to hit. I still feel like Edgerrin Cooper was "their guy" and he got sniped from the FO. They also chose Wallace over Payton Wilson, so I think there's some ego there from the former LB. I also think Wallace has had some pretty mid partners the past two years. Josey, Rozeboom, and a bunch of PS/journeymen haven't helped his case.  We probably thought he could be "the guy" at ILB but he's shown that's not the case. Now the question is, can he be a "Robin" to Lloyd's "Batman".  As for Cherillus, I like him as a depth guy and have never thought of him as a starter. He flashed a number of times last year. Bam Martin-Scott is another depth/PS guy that we drafted with the hopes he could step up given the opportunity. He's the exact same build, 2 years younger than Cherelus and produced similar stats last year.  Iron sharpens iron. Let's go gents....time to step up or show yourself out.
