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.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      Love the Freeling pick even more after watching his pressers. Dude is sharp and definitely seems to have the right mentality. I loved hearing how personal he took having a bad game with a torn labrum and instead of seeing that as the reason for his bad game and not changing anything, it motivated him to work even harder. Such a great pick, we finally got our all pro level LT for the next decade and now we can move Ickey to RT or guard with no hurt feelings due to his injury. Second favorite pick is probably Brazzell. He said he false started on his 40 and it cost him probably 0.04 seconds, so he’s more of a 4.33 guy rather than 4.37. Really Randy Moss lite. I didn’t know anything about him prior to drafting him and first highlight reel I saw of him I immediately thought he looked like Moss. Then I saw the measurables and was like yep. Then I see that he’s drawn that comparison by many scouts and analysts. If he can add consistency and play to the level of his highlights every play then we got an incredible value.

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      By rebelrouser · Posted

      During his three years at UGA he only allowed 5 sacks. He is only 21 and is on an upward trajectory. He's a great athlete that was good basketball player in high-school.  His height (76% how is this only 76%???? these guys are giants now), hands (81%), span (99%), speed (96%), quickness (10 yd. 86%), and explosiveness (vert. 96%, broad 97%) are all outstanding.  When we took Freeling, Fano, Mauioga, Proctor, and Miller were all off the board so we could have drafted Iheanachor or Lomu instead or waited to the second or third round to take Bell, Tiernan or Barber or wait even longer.  A lot of these tackles (including the first two taken) project to right tackle or guard in the NFL and that's not what we needed now.  Freeling has some sloppiness to clean up in his run blocking, but he's young and getting better.  We can let him get experience behind Walker and Moton knowing if he has to replace one of the two this year, his pass blocking won't get Bryce killed. Icky's not coming back from that injury as a nfl starting left tackle and Moton is in the twilight of his career.  If Walker has a great year, we will have to pay him a lot and if he is medicore we would want to let him walk.  Getting a LT on a rookie contract is going to help a lot with the cap.

      It was cool but they have done this at least in recent years unless I am imagining it
