Article: It's still OK to clobber Cam Newton's head, apparently

Those hits were obvious and both were helmet to helmet. Honestly had they been called they would extended drives and most likely led to points as well. Not only is Cam getting hammered but it is not even benefitting the offense for him to take those hits. A double screwing all around.  Guy launch at Cams head all the time.

Honestly, might be crazy, but their QB situation isn't desirable. Nick Foles and Alex Smith both underperform in eyes of chiefs fans. In fact, before sunday, everyone wanted Foles back and considered him to be Brady level good and blasted at the chiefs for not starting him.

 

Spencer Ware though. I have him on fantasy. He's pretty good.

I like to roll my bacon up in my pancakes like a taco.

Cam multiple shots to the head again yesterday just makes me feel like we probably should just give up on the NFL and officials on protecting our QB.  Cam somehow still isn't seen as a "Top Tier" quarterback to get calls even in the pocket.  The Mark Barron hit was a little iffy and I believe if that was Rodgers, Brady, Brees, etc. they get the call.  The 2 I was more concerned about that literally had me throwing up my hands in "What the fug" fashion was the Donald helmet-to-helmet hit which was blatant as the sky is blue and the after Cam run when the linebacker or cornerback finished up the place with driving his need into Cam's throat.  I don't ask for the NFl to get more pussified than it already is, I only ask, no I beg for consistency!

I was eager for the football season to start literally could not wait, but after watching the 1st two games of the panthers and watching how he is being treated was enough for me not to watch any football. I use to clear my schedule for certain football teams now I barely watch..i come here and see if Cam gets any illegal hits..not even interested in if they win or anyone else...This is not football it seems more like a gladiator except cam has no weapons just at the mercy of the emperors...at this point I almost wish he didn't play but I understand that he wants to be Ali just painful to watch a guy do nothing wrong but is beaten up by everyone except for a few fans. Anyone that has any sense of decency can agree he is be hunted and the league has given them the ok.

People are still trying to justify his hits in the pocket by the fact that he's big, strong, physical and can run. I'd accept that but the excuse is old and worn and we know what it's code for. If you sneeze on Tom Brady, he gets the call. You damn near have to put Cam on a stretcher to get the call but even then, it's offset by an offensive holding. Some even think that he's confused (saw this on FT actually) by what he's talking about. Said he's confusing the hits and no calls when he clearly stated as a runner, he understands he's on his own. Nobody, not even the organization, is taking this serious though. Desperate times call for desperate measures. Maybe the Panthers need to start avenging some of these illegal hits.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
