Cam Newton Calls Out NFL Officials Over Lack Of Calls On $100,000 Pyramid

With the NFL on a head-hunting campaign against Cam Newton, nothing much was done over the excessive amount of hits to Cam's head. With officials unable to accept that a massive, running QB should get the same calls as any other QB, Cam was tortured week after week, agonizing as his head turned into a defender's tackling dummy every Sunday.

Cam Newton decided to call them out this weekend. On ABC's $100,000 Pyramid, Cam Newton joked about how the NFL never gives him any calls:

Calling them out for what it is. Thoughts?

i really don't think he's helping his cause. the more he calls out the refs, the more it's going to backfire this season

I've never understood this line of thought.

So, if a person feels slighted or wronged, the best course of action is to keep quiet or the offending party may really turn up the heat on you?

Cam has a legitimate grievance.  His livelihood, health and future are in jeopardy.

He used all the proper channels and look what that got him.

    • Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen. 
    • Totally agree with you, if we had invested in drafting a corner or two I wouldn’t even ponder adding Ramsey. But, to be honest we legit added nobody to our corner room this offseason we have nobody worth developing. Even if Chau Smith Wade is better then what I think, he is the only guy we have invested draft capital into outside of our starters.
    • Look at his snap counts, your telling me that his entire college and pro football career every coach he has had has misused him? No offense but I don’t think you understand the role of a slot corner. Mike Jackson is the literal definition of an outside zone corner, he would be totally inept as a slot corner. Ala why he has been an outside corner his entire career.
