Its not about hitting him while sliding, its about him launching himself and raising his forearm into the head and neck.  That made it go from borderline bad hit to suspension.  Without that, it would have just been a 15 yard penalty.  And yeah, I do feel that Cam would have gotten the same treatment.  In truth, I feel that a running back would have gotten the same treatment although the running back wouldn't be sliding.    But launch yourself at a rb and lead with the forearm to the head and neck area, and that is about as clear a violation of the rules as possible.

Repeat offender who does dirty stuff like this all the time. I wish he got more, players like him are why we have the stupid rules we do on defense and why Mahomes can act like he’s trotting OOB then jog for another 20 yards cause nobody can touch him. 
 

we take hits like that out of the game, we can probably roll back some of the softness that’s introduced itself to the game past 10 years

Man up they protect these soft ass QB's.

 

Cam got his head took off in the SB and nobody was screaming for him. Different league now so it is what it is.

 

In the 90's this is a non story. 

Even the Broncos fans I was watching with were calling BS. The league sent a clear message Cam was not going to be the face of the NFL and Peyton was going out a winner. 

Talib said he was trying to injure Philly Brown and got a 25k fine and NO players got a year suspension. 

It's not soft. It's rigged.

You know how I know you're wrong? It's been a decade and it still gets talked about on here often.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
