Arguing with refs


Mr. Scot

heh in most cases I'd be inclined to agree, but that official had no business wearing stripes. The replacements were better than that guy.

I agree the officiating was horrible. Absolutely horrible.

But you can't touch them or disrespect them, and Cam knows it. He'll never do that again. I'd put money on it.

Oh, I agree on the touching them intentionally. Even the slightest shove or tap should be fined, if it was intentional. An accidental bump like Cam's though I don't see as a big deal. Disrespecting them though, they have to deserve their respect in my opinion. If any one person involved in today's game deserves a fine it's that terrible official.

What on Earth do I have to be bitter about regarding the Panthers? Atlanta has owned them, we have won 36 games compared to your 14 the last 3 years and we have won 5 of the last 6 head to head.

I feel my comment was an objective view of the situation. I did say the kick wasn't a big deal, it was his reaction to the ref that was. In the past I have defended Cameron on several occasions, particularly his handling of the media and the incident while playing at Auburn.

I get it dude, you don't like the Falcons or their fans, fine. It doesn't mean every Falcons fan is some blind, bitter, biased homer.

Oh look a falcon fan cherry picking rebuilding years... how about we cherry pick your rebuilding years between 2003-2009?

You can see he catches his foot as soon as he makes contact with the ref and brings his body back. he didn't try to throw himself into the ref.

Yea, it's quite obvious he didn't intend to touch the ref at all. His momentum from jumping up off the ground is why he even brushed the ref's sleeve. I did think it was quite funny though, how the ref nearly shat himself and flinched when Cam popped up angry.

From this the ref made contact with him just as much as Newton.

Some of you guys are so funny. In one thread Smitty is getting praised for acting like a "thug." And in this one, folks are wondering if Cam should be fined for standing up for what was right.

I look at it this way, if Matthew Stafford could jump into fight that had nothing to do with him and was called a "true leader" for his team then Cam is way more qualified to lead because he did what 99.9% of us would have done.

    • Super raw, not sure he is worth a top 10 pick.  Primary a pass rusher.  A bit like Burns, very fast athletic but doesnt always follow the play.  His highlights look good but when you watch him play you can see he is just raw and needs to develop
    • Personally, I am not sold on Bryce yet--and I do not think anyone is saying they are, but I don't think Ward is on table when we draft anyway.  Not even sure if I would rather have him than one of the later QBs.  I see a lot of potential in Allar, Nussmeire, Rourke, and even Hamilton from Ohio State--Milroe is intriguing, but I am not sure he is an NFL QB.  Ewers is that sleeper who falls and becomes a solid starter. I think that we sign a veteran who has played and we draft one of these project QBs. To your point:  With that in mind, I think you have to take QB off the table in round 1, and if Bryce can string 4-5 games like KC together, we still need to draft a QB in round three or so---I really think Rourke is a great fit for this offense--he is accurate and gets the ball out quickly---he impressed me vs OSU.   Reason?  I think we may have a tough decision to make about Bryce in 2 years--will he be worth $60m?  That decision is a lot easier if you have been grooming a backup for 2 years who can play. In round 1: I am hoping for PSU's edge Abdul Carter In round 2:  I would like to see us grab a DT who can rush the passer.  Walter Nolen of Ole Miss is versatile and a bit raw. I think he could be an excellent complement to Brown. In round 3:  I would love ILB Danny Stutsman from Oklahoma.  He is a beast. With 11 picks, I would package our 4th rounders to move up into the third round and take a QB.  At the moment, I think Rourke is trending upward and he has the skills Canales seems to want in a QB.  Quick processor, quick release. I would use the fifth rounders on OL.  I know that I left out WR--however, we are getting Thielen back, XL will be improved, Coker will be improved, and Moore has been surprisingly good.  Sanders (TE) has been more than expected in the passing game.  I think we need D more than WR, and maybe we can get a veteran WR to sign or find a hidden gem late.  
    • Wouldn't be surprised if he starts a couple Jets games this year with the way the Rodgers thing is going. Giants fans are pissed they didn't keep him lol. He might actually have a little bit of a market.
