I like watching Cam play. Just an athletic freak.

Got his azz handed to him tonight. He was beat up before they even got to halftime.

Regardless of how you feel about Cam, that schit by Talib has no place in professional sports. If you condone that crap you're just as bad as him. Grabbing someone by the face mask and attempting to throw them 10 yards is a dick move at best. Talib is just as big a POS as Cam is on the field. Don't know about off the field but I can say that Cam does do a lot for the greater Charlotte community with kids. He has a lot of maturing to do, hopefully sooner rather than later.

The difference in today and back in the 70s is that the guys are much bigger, faster and stronger. The league has realized they will be paying through the nose for future lawsuits if they didn't step up and give some protection to players. When you have 280 lb monsters that run 4.5 40s, it's a dangerous game despite the best equipment available.


My how things change....

FWIW, Lane played at pretty much the same size as Akib Talib....in the 1950's....

The best.

He covered, he tackled. A complete corner; complete football player...

Still can't believe players like Deion Sanders garner mention in the same sentence.

Deion was a complete chit bird. Cam has a loooong way to go to out douchebag Neon Deion.

His athletic talent is off the charts; but question his maturity and toughness.

Jesus, Bart Starr, Roger, Terry, Joe and even Brett got hit more in one quarter than these guys today do in several games.
The Phil Simms commentary cracked me up.

There are some real Barney Badasses out there physically, but many don't hold up when getting hit.

If we're going to play this PC BS, give me Doug Williams over the Scam in a SB any day.....

I won't question his physical toughness. He's one of the very few that don't slide every time they cross scrimmage.

Mentally, he is a marshmallow.

I still harbor respect for our shrapnel; he' pretty in tune to nonsense and horschidt. Perhaps Iron Mike is just pimpin' for the bosses or just lovin on his former player....]

Here's some unadulterated, unpaid view on Scammy...

"But later, when Butkus answers questions in front of the Touchdown Club, he says he does not like Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton, and imitates Newton pointing after he picks up a first down.
His audience laughs nervously. Butkus is an icon. Newton is their quarterback, a quarterback undefeated six games into this season.
Butkus says his wife, Helen, walked past the television when Newton was celebrating and asked what he was doing. Butkus told her. She kept walking. Helen isn’t a fan, either.
Butkus comes from a time when, if a good play was celebrated, it was celebrated after a game. He comes from a time when a concussion was a headache. He comes from a time when a team’s best players played on special teams."-The Charlotte Observer 10-30-15

Dick Butkus would love to have played against Cammie..........just sayin'.

Regardless of position, Butkus was the best football player I've ever seen.

I'm not a Broncos fan but my MIL is - she's 84 and in very poor health. She doesn't see or hear well so I've been watching the Bronco games with her this year to explain what's going on. She's been in the hospital since before Christmas and I thoroughly enjoyed the game today. At one point I told her the Broncos defense was handling things well but needed to knock that smart ass grin off Cam's face. Not two plays later, the camera zoomed in on him and that big grin was long gone. Truly made my day grin

Here ya go....





Anyways, I am happy the Superbowl turned out to be a game after all, and not a walkover.

And Mr Newton and those who would idolize him learned a useful lesson.

Kudos to the Broncos, and congrats to Peyton Manning, what a great way to close out a career cool

Deion Sanders is the best cornerback to have ever put on cleats. You know nothing of football if you think otherwise. What happened did he destroy your team all by himself. On and Off the field total class.

I also grew up singing patriotic songs in school and reciting the pledge of allegiance. The Super Bowl starts with the "Star Spangled Banner" which represents everything great about America and that Puke of a Cam Newton can't even pay attention to the song and hold his hand over his pathetic heart. I hope he gets his ass kicked...
