Legal Hit? YOU Be The Judge

So, coming back to that supposed "shoulder" hit on Cam, I snagged a GIF of it, and slowed it down to 15% original speed.

I don't know about you, but I certainly don't see any supposed "shoulder" hitting Cam first.

I do see a helmet smashing into Cam and giving me repercussions to the season opener.'

What do you think? Did the Rams get away with this one? Is the league really protecting our QBs?

I might be seeing something different than you. I could've sworn I saw his helmet hit his, jerk it back, and then his shoulder hit came afterwards. It may be the crappy quality and frame rate tbh, but what I'm seeing is something that looks like a clear hit to the helmet.

Elaborate on your thought process on that one?

lol if you don't see helmet to helmet contact there you are blind as hell or blatantly ignoring it.

Are you drunk? How is that legal?? Legal on cam or legal on Brady?

I watch all NFL games and think people overreact about some of the hits we have seen as far as thinking of some stupid crybaby conspiracy against (only) Cam because if you watch all the games it (hits, calls and missed calls) happens all day long to many QBs.

 

That said, this should have been a flag for two reasons; helmet to helmet and it wa deliberate. He was untouched and could have easily tackled cam with a mid body tackle.

The issue with this particular hit is the intent to go high. I do believe helmet to helmet contact occurred but even if you didn't, you can't dispute Barron's intentions to go up top.

It's also pretty clear he launches as well. It's just the type of hit other QBs would get a call on but unfortunately, Cam does not..

    • Yea when teams see a gun charge they rightly pause but this seems like a big misunderstanding. 
    • Sorry man you lost me at "Teppers have evolved as owners". Limped into playoffs at 8-9 not even above .500 Tepper is trash as an owner bro and that's not even a discussion at this point. 37-83 w/l ratio. Nuff said.... Morgan tho, he's cooking and it ain't cuz of Teppers leadership
    • After listening to Morgan's presser twice, I came away with some key beliefs. First of all, I don't think he's a bullshitter. What you see is what you get. When he says something, he means it.  The Teppers really have evolved as owners. Morgan has mentioned how they're easy to work with--a pleasure to work with a few times now. There seems to be a good relationship between all of them (and include Dave Canales on that). We'll see if it lasts. Yes, no one wanted to come to Carolina with the previous management, but that seems to have changed. The team signed arguably the top Edge, LB and OT on the market, two of them on pretty good deals and one on what I'll say is "not a bad one." And, credit Sunshine Dave "Flowers and Cotton Candy" Canales for helping to change the culture. Morgan mentioned getting guys--and I'm paraphrasing--that are not only great football players but great people. Don't look for us to be acquiring any James Pearce types anytime soon, just saying. We'll see if that holds true in the future. Dan Morgan really has set up the Panthers to take the BPA/BAP. He mentioned it at least a couple of times, and he doesn't seem pressured to pinpoint a particular position. He just wants quality players that will help the team. This is how it's going to be (to your joy or dismay, probably for as long as he's here), and personally I love it. Many of us know how Morgan was when he played: aggressive! That's what he's going to be when making acquisitions. He explicitly said it, and emphasized it. All avenues are open (think FA, waivers...the draft)! Personally, as long as it's controlled aggression and not reckless aggression, I love it.  On KP: "Mobility is big in this league."  He basically says if another QB is the BPA while drafting--we're going by our board, people--we're going to add them.        ...
