Cam left to hang dry when things don't go our way. Where's the attitude and meanness?

Fox007 made a good ass point and this definitely needs its own thread

Cam takes the cheap shots, late hits, hits to the helmet. He gets abused and what am I seeing from the other players? Nothing. 2013 team wasn't going to have that. Look at our team then vs now. We don't have any players you KNOW not the mess with or you will get your ass beat (Smitty, Hardy). That nastiness and meanness is not there. We may have some good tough players, but it's not the same. It's not what Denver has. Teams play dirty against us, PLAY DIRTY BACK ( in before but this team went to the SB (and LOST), they didnt )

Post-game, Cam is left to hang dry too. I don't see in any press conferences from Ron telling the NFL to go fug themselves for letting Cam get illegally hit. Somebody on this team needs to say something and make it LOUD and CLEAR. I didnt hear anybody tell the media to go kiss Cam ass for Cam answering a few questions with a hoodie on and leaving after losing the damn Superbowl

This occurred to me in the offseason and I agree. It absolutely manifested tonight. Smitty, Norman,  would have never stood for that kind of dirty crap, but we've slowly filtered those players away. KB is really the only one I could see stepping up to take that void and I hope he does.

Panthers were a big part in the rule changes over the off season. Its obvious and we saw it in the pre season with Cam. They are trying to cut down on the show boating and we are the target, when you see a flag thrown for Trai jumping up and down on a TD you know something is up. We may not being able to show that enthusiasm like we were able to last year even when we are getting screwed. Its gonna be like playing in a bottle all season.

Just like that 2013 Niners playoff game...  A play or two into the game, one of our guys chest bumped a Niner and we were called for a personal foul.  A play or two later, Boldin headbutted a guy and the ref stood there and watched before breaking them up without a flag.  It sets a precedent and sends a message.  They called Trai early to take our edge off...  keep us from getting too comfortable or asserting ourselves physically, in a physical game, lol.

I also like how Shane Ray hit Cam then got up and taunted him, which was much more demonstrative and "in your face" than Trai's, but that wasn't a penalty.

Ron is too stoic for my tastes at times.  I think he tries to placate more than stir the pot, but I agree.  

Smitty might have murdered someone on Denver tonight.  

Literally.

 

Probably true about Ron. He's from a military family. Stoic and by the book.

Not that it's a bad thing 

And not that they're all like that.

Say what you want about Bruce Arians, but he would be at that podium absolutely ripping the NFL, refs, and media a new one had Palmer been headhunted like that. Hell, just look how he stood up for Campbell when he get cut at the knees by a RB.

Hell - they'd have started ejecting defenders long before Palmer got hit in the head 6 times anyway.  They throw around personal fouls for accidental slaps to the head area of most QBs.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
