Ref says Newton's contact wasn't malicious

[grateflday]

It interesting to hear about stuff like this after the game, because there is definately a different perspective when seeing plays live vs watching on tv. I definately saw Cam do a little extra bump,,,, but from seeing it live, it was like the ref was right there almost already touching hime when Cam got up. That didnt show any replays so that was the only look we got.

Exactly...If the defender had done the same thing to Brady,Rogers,Brees then he would have been flagged. Can you say double standards?

I felt that way about the flag Kraken got for the hit on Palmer. It looked clean as hell to me, but the refs threw the flag cuz Palmer got rocked.

That was a game changing hit and worth the penalty everytime.

It seems like the refs automatically throw a flag when they see a player doesn't get up right away. When I see a hard hit in the NFL today I know to watch for the yellow flag 2-3 seconds after that. Hard hit, player stays down = flag. Hard hit, player pops up = no flag.

[Guest Tom Cat]

He was upset over a series of late hits that were not called. On the last, after he threw the ball the defender drove him into the ground and no call was made. He got up and let the ref know about it, might've made contact with him. He got a flag and that was it. Nothing you dont see guys like Brady and Eli do from time to time.

I call bullshit

You know damn well he made contact with the ref and I have never seen brady or any other qb do so and not get penalized

Cam has some growing up to do and to stop acting like a little bitch at times when he is frustrated-

the shits embarrassing

Yeah I hear ya on that.... the sad thing though it was a clean hit and it seamed like today if a tackle just looked violent they were throwing a flag. At least the refs screwed both teams today with that.

[Marguide]

Cam was wrong, but the Raiders were hitting him with cheap shots all day. Both the sideline shove and the driving into the ground that resulted in Cam losing it should have been penalties. A defender also hit him in the pocket and led with his helmet.

None of these were called yet Luke's clean hit was. That crew flat sucked.

Tom Cat menstruating in a Cam thread? That's unheard of.

Lol, even if Brady had....maybe he has...nobody would care, let's be real about it. It's tought out there, the Raiders are cheap shot artist...I might em punched the ref in the mouth, this ain't badmitten.

Speak for yourself Tom Cat. What, no thread today downplaying our win?

Youre the one riding cams cock amigo

[mav1234]

it really wasn't that big a deal... refs get jawed at all the time and they do occasionally give penalties to people for it... you can't brush into one, even accidentally, because even if that ref didn't mean to call it on that, other refs would.

Just a terribly called game, but I hope all the players involved in it learn from it if they can.

I don't get why people think Cam should have been ejected - that is insane.

[The Special One]

It's a shame Cam lost his damn head, twice! His actions totally overshadow the team's very unimpressive win.

Not really, supporting the QB....the Raiders are dirty. I wonder how the "wonderful" you might have reacting....don't be so quick to judge, Cam's gonna get some cheap shots when they can get to him...sure, he could handle it better, but I don't blame him, hell, I don't know how I would've reacted....
