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.

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)

      looks like the Lions and Bangles should forget about the playoffs, trade everyone they can, and start over.
