If Cam Was White And Didn't Dance

I have never heard that in order to get the roughing the passer call, the defender has to hit with his shoulder down low. It has always been if you hit the QB down low then it is a 15 yard penalty. Period. Every time Cam gets hit like other QBs that get the calls, there is always some bullshit explanation of why it wasn't called and everyone is fine with it afterwards.

Before their excuse was his style of play...  we have multiple examples this season of him getting hit in the pocket and late out of bounds that stand in complete contrast to how the game is being called for his counterpart in the same exact game.   So, whats the next excuse for those in denial?

I'm not quite sure who is in denial on here... I'd say at least 95% of this board agrees that Cam doesn't get the calls he deserves, and he's held to a double standard, which is unfair.

Whether it's because he's black, outspoken, or he's a huge player and QB, does it really matter? I don't really care why this is happening, but that it's happening. I think we can all agree that he should be getting the same calls every other QB gets, and this poo needs to get fixed. He deserves the same protection every other QB in the league gets, no matter his..."running position," or whatever that horseshit they tried to play it off as was.

    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
