The INT's that led to the fight....

Prior to the fight, Cam Newton threw two interceptions relatively close to one another on the clock. 

 

First Melvin White picked off a pass that was under thrown to Benton Bersin. White was able to jump inside and make the pick.

Second, Josh Norman intercepted the pass that led to the runback and scuffle. I would love to tell you who the pass was intended for, but I am unclear. As you can tell ... no offensive player was near Josh when he made the interception, it was underthrown and the receiver was far left out of the frame.

As you can tell, neither ball was contested for or tipped. They were clean catches by the defensive backs that the receivers never had a shot at. 

This was the fuel for the frustration by Cam Newton and losing his composure for a moment. Cam, to put it simply, was having a bad day throwing the ball.

So is it his footwork that is causing these errant throws? I was hoping the ankle surgery would help correct on some of his overthrows.  I read one account that said the pocket was collapsing that led to the Norman INT. Maybe it's still a protection issue?  Or could have just been a bad day...

How had Cam looked as a whole, from a passing effeciency perspective this TC? I know the LT conundrum has lead to some hiccups and frustration,  but has he improved from what you can tell?

He has looked decent. Not as crisp as during OTAs to my eye, but now the pads are on and more people are in his face.

I'm furious that the national and local media is trying to spin this is a huge issue. Norman shouldn't of stiff-armed Newton, Newton shouldn't have shoved back, Norman shouldn't have taken his helmet off... But hey, both guys stood up for themselves and I'd be willing to bet my last dollar that Cam and Josh are fine with each other. Scuffles happen all the time.

It might be hard, but stop paying them attention

    • Jalen Carter came into camp out of shape too. That was part of the reason he dropped considering he was thought of as the better defensive player pre-draft activities. It’s not a good sign when you don’t look great but it’s definitely premature.
    • We won 5 with the worst defense in the history of defenses.  I think free agency and our draft puts us over 6.5.
    • Leaning towards just ordering this tonight, but now I have no idea on size. Has anyone bought a bunch of jerseys in the last few years and can convey how the Game vs Limited vs Reebok versions all fit? These are both Mediums... The white one here is a Reebok one from 2010, and was when they had the "+2 length" on the tag and it was the version with the stitched numbers instead of iron on... the blue one is from 2022 and is the F.U.S.E Limited version also with stitched stuff, not the "game jersey" with the ironed on numbers/letters that they have the T-Mac jerseys in. The old one fits me fine, the blue one was always a tad snug on me, particularly in the shoulders I'm leaning going with a Large based on the CMC, but for all I know, that is made with a tighter cut due to the higher "limited" level and the "game" ones they have for T-Mac are cut more like a T-Shirt and thus will fit more like the old white one I have here, not sure. (and yes, I already tried going to a sporting goods store here to hopefully try on a Lions jersey to see, but they don't have any right now)
