Greg Olsen to Arizona Cardinals "Don't like it? Too bad."

At the end of the Carolina Panthers victory over the Arizona Cardinals, there was a bit of a tense moment between Greg Olsen and the Cardinals defense. As I stood in the end zone I noticed Olsen was giving a group of Cardinals “the business”.  Olsen spoke about the confrontation in the locker room after the game.

“We were playing hard football there at the end of the game. We are coming off, we are scratching for every inch. We’re hitting, we’re finishing blocks.” Olsen said.

“This is professional football man, this is big boy stuff. If you don’t like it, too bad.”

Here are the two plays that led up to the shouting match.

First, Olsen does a really nice job blocking for Stewart. Once the play is over, a Cardinals offensive lineman gives a little extra curricular hit to Olsen who isn’t looking.

Then, on the next play Olsen pushed DJ Swearinger away which apparently the safety did not appreciate. This began the late game shouting match.

More than anything, it appears the Arizona Cardinals are upset that they always leave Bank of America Stadium with another loss. I have to agree with Olsen here. Don’t like it? Too bad.

Swearinger reminds me a lot of Burfict in terms of his recklessness.

Like Burfict tho, I thought he'd be a solid player if a coach could control him. Looks like he's responded well to Arians. Glad to see things working out for him.

Here's to hoping the team found that "identity" that was eluding them.

    • He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.
    • Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings. 
    • Because he won't be here next year, we aren't winning this year and we need to see if Renfrow or Horn can be that guy going forward. If Bryce isn't good enough to do poo without AT we need to find that out this year as well. I'm fine keeping him but his role needs to be slowly reduced throughout the year anyway so we know what we have for the future
