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.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
