Will the NFL give a super bowl to an aging Cam Newton?

Many years from now when Cam is past his prime and a couple years away from retirement, having broken tons of NFL records and a consistent track record of being a good human on the field and off the field, could you see the NFL helping Cam add a SB to his resume?  They did it for Peyton.

 

*before you give me the NFL doesn’t give Super Bowls away argument, they have tons of control over teams and game flow.  From officiating calls, to scheduling, there are both small and major ways the NFL can give teams small nudges towards winning games.

 

Thoughts?

Cam called Roger G last week and had a long conversation with him. Roger agreed that he will give the team a playoff spot next year as part of a larger agreement they made with Jerry Richardson that we would have winning seasons in odd years. Other than a playoff appearance, that is all he promised to give the aging Cam Newton unless we cut Reid. 

Take this info if you choose but it is very real. My insider gave me this information last week after I paid him with an authentic pair of Daryl Worley game used and signed set of gloves. He knew he had to deliver after I gave up something so valuable.

Think this fits Elway, more so than Peyton.

NFL Entertainment. Nobody promised it would be fair. Nobody said they wouldn't meddle in the outcome of games.

It's funny how everybody will blame Ron or Cam when games such as the 49ers at BofA was obviously fixed.

They helped the 49ers into the much anticipated game with Seattle that year so the question IS valid.

      Yeah. As a wild card team. Washington won the division at 10-6.

      no doubt but flip that.   The current system insures that there are "regional" games in the early weeks. maximizing the reach of playoff football.  If all of the WC weekend for a conference took place on the west coast they are reducing the "reach" of their hype machine.

      Hard to say with London--he never ran--combine or pro day.  Here is what AI says, and it is always 100% accurate: Drake London's 40-yard dash time at the NFL Combine was not recorded because he was dealing with a fractured ankle at the time. While he didn't participate in the 40 at the Combine or his pro day, his coach said his 40 time was estimated to be between 4.4 and 4.53 seconds. Some sources also list his 40 time at 4.58 and 4.6 seconds Unless you are running 9s all day, top end 40 speed is rarely reached.  I have always looked at the 3-cone drill.  At his pro day, TMac ran a 6.86--pretty good, actually.  For context, it is faster that Rome Odunze (6.88) who ran a 4.45 40.  Odunze is 6'3" and weighs 216, fwiw, and is considered a very good route runner with no wasted motion.  Mike Evans 3-cone was 7.08.  To put it in a broader context, through 2022, with all NFL prospect 3-cone drills combined, a 6.86 puts TMac in the.89th percentile-  Now consider the fact that he is 6'4" and 220.   We might have something here.  '
