I mean no one really gave a damn when it happened to Luck in week 1. I think the fact that there are now ejections for them the outrage is far more muted since they actually receive a harsh punishment compared to just a 15 yard penalty in years past.

Also neither QB was knocked out of the game and result more than action is what leads to the most outrage typically.

So your saying that since he didn't receive a concussion that the hit was somehow less dangerous?

I said in week one that teams would look for other ways to take Cam out.   Don't forget 2015 Atlanta was the first team to use the headshot on Cam so it doesn't surprise me that they headhunted a different way.

So he pays a fine (small in comparison to what they make) and sits out the rest of the game.  Yeah that's really a deterrent.   He should have been suspended at least two games or IMO the remainder of the season. 

Please don't feed me that B.S. that in real time his actions couldn't have been avoided.  I may be in the minority but I believe that directed by the coaching staff.  They'll sacrifice a player to take Cam out.  Especially if he only lost part of a game.

Such B.S.  It has been going on for years now.

That’s not at all what I said. I said the public outrage was less because he wasn’t injured. The hell did you get that from what I wrote.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
