It's Time To Acknowledge The Elephant In The Room

Has it ever crossed your mind that Cam is 250 pound beast and guys have to lay some wood to tackle him. The Panthers literally snap him the ball and run power plays with Cam as the halfback. I think you are dead wrong and your wild opinion is unprofessional.  

If Cam was a no-name TE of the same size attempting to catch a pass over the middle and got hit with those head shots, that would be a 15 yard penalty.  EVERY fuging TIME.  

His size has nothing to do with it...  IF anything, historically players are taught to go low on larger, stronger players...  not high.

This is how Denver plays every game in the mile high. The ish that goes on their is ridiculous.

How about the shot to KBJ's knees?

SOP

conveniently when they could call it on the same play they could call a penalty on the offense so they offset.  I guess that was just coincidence, considering they missed the first 4 or 5 blatant attempts to decapitate our QB.

Last post, then im done. The other helmet contact was glancing at best. The last one was clearly a legit blow. I am saying that yes, the refs will allow Brandon Marshall to tap Cams helmet clearly by mistake as CAM NEWTON is running at him full speed and decides to pull up and dump  a pass.

LeBron goes through the same thing.  Yes, the fact that they are on another level physically works against them. It is not because Cam is black. Sorry.

Look at above gif.

 

Then look at NFL rules that don't state "degrees" of helmet to helmets.  A helmet to helmet is a flag, easy as that.  Like the one that wasn't called in the SB that they use in the highlights before this game.    But please, keep that head in the sand.

So, when Mike Vick was allowed to be hit multiple times after touching the sideline, I'm guessing that was because he was a giant too?  And go look at the thread containing the .gif of all the helmet shots.  NOT ONE OF THEM was a "glancing" shot.  I recall our team getting a 15-yarder within the last couple of years against New Orleans for slapping the QB's head with an open hand.

And LOL @ that Lebron comparison.  IDK how much basketball you watch, but check out a game where Lebron is playing against some mid-market team in October and tell me he struggles to get calls.  He was 15th out of 440+ players in the league in free throws attempted.  See, the difference is, the NBA respects and protects its stars because they realize how valuable they are to their game and product.

You mind if I tap you in the head the same way? Since it's just a tap, I mean, couldn't hurt

Cam wouldnt have even noticed the first two blows. Have you ever played football? Does not appear like you have.  I never said that it shouldnt have been flagged. I am trying to tell you it is because Cam is so strong he is creating his own set of rules, like it or not.  It is due to his athleticism not his skin color.

I haven't played football because I showed you legitimate proof that Cam received more than glancing blows to the head

You need to regroup and try something different with your next post

    • Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.
    • How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.
    • I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
