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.

    • Well first, it's not really fair to say the defense was bad even with DB in there, he played one game for us this year. But if we're at #5, it means one of the 2 QB's, T-Mac, Hunter, or Johnson would be there and I can't see any reason to take a DT when any of them are available.   We take one of the 3 players or trade back for someone who wants one of the QB's, and that's how you pick up the extra 1st in a trade.  Even if the QB's are gone and so is T-Mac/Hunter and for some reason we didn't want Johnson, you could still trade back to the 10-12 range and probably pick up another 2nd in that draft and probably another 2nd or 3rd in 2026 as well, which would likely be worth it. If we lose out, we're likely picking 4th at worst, if we win 1 more game, we still have a very real shot at picking #5 given the remaining schedules of all the teams in that range right now (they still play each other a lot and have to pick up wins because of it). The ideal situation would be we somehow end up with say the #2 or #3 pick and the Raiders end up #4.  We swap picks with them while getting their 2026 1st so they can take one of the QB's, Hunter goes #3, and then we end up getting T-Mac at #4 while also picking up a future 1st. That is a very real possibility of happening if we lose out as the Raiders still play the Jaguars at home, and if we end with a tied record, we'll get the higher pick as they have a much tougher SOS. The Jags play the Titans twice, Jets, Raiders, Cots, if we lose out and they win just 1 of those games, we're probably picking ahead of them as right now they have the higher SOS.  The Patriots actually might beat the Bills in the final game of the season as the Bills could be locked into the 2 seed by then and have no reason to play their regulars. If those things happen and we lose out, we're picking 3rd at worst.  If the Raiders also beat the Jags out of that, we're picking 2nd behind the Giants. The Patriots losing out and taking T-Mac #2 instead of trading back with someone who wants a QB or taking an OL or Hunter is the big wrench in things.  Besides that, losing out puts us in the driver's seat to take T-Mac, possibly even after a trade back as well.
    • I would presently take the much younger Bryce over the 30 year old  Winston and his interceptions, the main reason  teams  let him go and try finding another QB.
