It is the honest answer, and so would all good NFL linebackers. Cam wasn't clearly in from the LB's perspective. 

Agree, and I think Newton's hesitation cost him.

But even so, is that really a wise thing to say right now?

No idea what the hell Newton was thinking on that play. He let up and started to stroll in like he was already in the end zone. Happened once before with him against the Saints last year and he got clocked that time too.

RR on hit on Cam near goal line: “It’s a judgement call, but If I was playing, I would have taken a shot.”

 

i get what he's saying, and to be fair Rivera wasn't a dirty player, but I got a bad feeling this may not go over all that well with some folks.

Rivera's passion in defense of Cam's health is truly breathtaking.

Gives me the chills.

(That what you were looking for?  P.S. I was being sarcastic.)

Not really "looking for" anything.

I just think it wasn't a wise thing to say in the current situation.

Rivera's not the type to lie, though,  For better or worse, he says what he's thinking.

Admittedly, there are times I wish he didn't, like "They're still learning to play together".

It was a terrible play by Newton and I was surprised as many people here got as upset with the Falcons LB as they did. You can't allow someone to jog into the endzone, because they slowed down. 

What I will say about the play was the hit by Remmers on Jones afterwards is one of the dirtier plays I've seen all year.

This'll end well.

One does have to love the delicious irony of a Saints fan lecturing another organization on dirty play.

It'll go over just fine with NFL fans...and Remmers took up for Cam just fine by falling knee first onto the guy after the play. You can clearly see it in the gif in the other thread...non issue it was a football play...if you don't like that this isn't the sport for you.

You're a Saints fan. You're in no position to call out dirty plays LOL.

      There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
