Blandino admits missed roughing call on Newton

“This is something we’ve heard before from other players,” Blandino said, “and we obviously don’t take player safety concerns lightly. And we review every play from every game with an eye for player safety, and we’ve done that all year.”

Blandino said that the league will address with the officials the missed call in order to “make sure that all of our quarterbacks are protected the same way under the rules.”

The NFL hasn’t said it publicly yet, but the NFL’s position is that all quarterbacks are protected — or not — equally. From a P.R. standpoint, however, it’s hard to push back against Newon’s arguments that he’s not getting protected as well as other quarterbacks by saying, essentially, “We’re screwing things up way worse with other quarterbacks, Cam.”

The league has every incentive to protect quarterbacks from illegal hits. Without healthy quarterback, NFL games will become less interesting — and the ratings will implode even more. So the best answer to the problem will be to insist that referees protect quarterbacks properly. If, for whatever reason, that can’t be done adequately in real time, the league needs to find a way to rectify any errors via replay review.

they pretty much have to do something now, so it wouldn't surprise me.

Doing something is an admission they weren't doing something they should of...

NFL doesn't seem to be "about that life".  I suspect NFL teams will continue to get away with more than they should

This is coming from a guy that tweeted #dezcaughtit Sunday night.  He has no self awareness and I doubt anything will actually change.  Cam will probably get hit and it won't be flagged and he'll tweet #shouldhavebeenapenalty . 

 

fug that guy



He really is a clueless dumbass. Watch his lame ass segments on NFLN. When he's not sounding like an idiot he's on Jerry's bus slamming boxed wine.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Totally.  They had a guy starred on their boards that made it in trade worthy range. The risk was totally worth it.  Our case was the classic of a franchise not having a QB, do what you can to get one.  That often results being thrust into a bad situation, putting crazy pressure on 1 guy, and it becomes even worse when he's not that great.  But if we find ourselves just a few spots behind a guy we really like, I don't see a problem.   We just have to see how the season shakes out and enjoy this roller coaster.  It's not pretty at times but we somehow are 5-4 haha. If Bryce turns a page and cranks out some truly QB driven wins, then maybe we do consider just rolling with him and a Dalton replacement in 2026.  Someone like a Jarrett Stidham/Tanner McKee.   However, if he stays mostly the same (whether we fall apart or he struggles on/off but we still win some), I think you have to leave to door open for a QB in the draft.  Scout and meet with the top ones, see if any really fit what D&D want.  Maybe that guy could be Mateer.  Who knows

      Young QBs lead their teams to undefeated October

      I lived in that area for a minute, and 2 decades of BB and Brady made them delusional.  They think everyone is the 2nd coming of Brady and they're just on a short coffee break til the next dynasty.

      Bryce Young hasn't cleared 200 passing yards in a single game in that window.  Meanwhile, Rico Dowdle has put together the greatest 5 game stretch of rushing production in Panthers history.   And RBs have sort of been our thing, so there is ample competition.  This team hasn't been lead by Bryce Young in that stretch. Those wins are simplistically 3 things.  Schedule, Rico, and defense.
