Re: SuperBowl Week
I'll be honest, I can tolerate Cam as long as he doesn't reach Aqib Talib's age and is still acting like that. After last night I think Talib is a straight idiot, he would have gotten my vote for LVP if such a thing existed with how terrible he was last night. Giving up catches, all the personal fouls, and after the SB he was being loud and obnoxious like he won the damn thing himself.
I think Cam is just taking all this heat because he plays quarterback. If he was a wide receiver dabbing and having fun everybody would probably let it go, but since he's a qb and people expect qb to be these mature, professional at all times leaders nobody likes it that he acts like one of the guys.

Re: SuperBowl Week
Von Miller is a game changer.
Congrats to Ware for getting a ring. he had an amazing AFC champ game. Congrats to Wade, it looked like Cam just couldnt see the field, didnt trust his eyes/playcall and the pressure got to him. cam's post game walk off - i imagine its hard to sit there and have to answer questions when your mind is probably racing through a ton of thoughts and replays, etc. apparently you could clearly hear a broncos corner saying they game planned to force Cam to throw the ball ..... in that moment, that was probably too much for an emotional guy like Cam to handle. i think its dumb to force the losing players to answer questions so soon after. i think its dumb to have Peyton doing a on-field interview the second the game ends.

Re: SuperBowl Week
Eli's look when Peyton basically iced the game: Priceless.

Re: SuperBowl Week
My teammates knew what it was, Talib said. He was on the 3-yard line. (With) a personal foul, he was on the 1 1/2-yard line, so it is what it is.
Read more at: Aqib Talib Committed Facemask ‘On Purpose’; First Personal Foul ‘Was B.S.’ | Super Bowl | NESN.com --- The NFL may need to consider placing the ball at the 1 yard line for PF committed within 10-15 yards of the goal line. It seems like players dont mind taking a cheap shot when they know the penalty will just be a few yards. the Danny Amendola hit in the AFC Champ game comes to mind as well.

Re: SuperBowl Week
Cam is 26 and will be 27 in a few months. Do not use the "young" excuse for a 27 year old man. He is immature for his age and that was evident in the post game press conference. He puts the bulls eye on himself.
On the tired subject of the offenses were terrible in the Super Bowl: Don't sell the the Broncos and Carolina's defenses short, they are really that good. Tom Brady and "one the best offenses (Patriots coaching staff) in the NFL" could not beat Denver's defense. Why is it that hard to grasp that Carolina's offense could not do any better? Tell me, what current offense, Qb or teams game plan in the entire NFL at this time would have done better against Denver's defense yesterday if Patriots could not beat them? Who is heads and shoulders better offensively at this time? I get tired of hearing the arm chair offensive guru's out there that think if they ran a different game plan/offense the other team would have won. No. Denver's defense is that good that they beat the best current offenses in the NFL. Period. Some times that happens. |

Re: SuperBowl Week
Cam acted like a petulant child -- pure and simple. I won't deny that it must be a searing experience to suffer a loss like that in front of 200 million people, but get a grip and show some class. Being a world-class athlete and living in the spotlight also means the potential for moments like that -- it goes with the territory.

Re: SuperBowl Week
Mark Schelereth called this a super bowl defense before the season started and boy was he right.
Considering the era and just how anemic Broncos offense was, man what an impressive year and historic accomplishment by that broncos D #nasty To do that with an offense that stalls that much is insane. |

Re: SuperBowl Week
If he didnt shake hands w broncos players or congratulate Peyton, I think that would be classless.
If he said the panthers should have won and were the better team, that would be classless imo. I dont think him saying "they didnt do anything special" crosses the line bc denver didnt do anything special. I saw a young emotional guy a few minutes after losing the biggest game of his life, just trying to come to grips with things. He could have apologized and said his emotions are just too raw right now and he will answer every question tomorrow or after he has some time to reflect with his teammates and family. he didnt pull a richard sherman.

Re: SuperBowl Week
I think people are being a little too hard and nasty on ol' Superman. You guys just wait until your kitty cat is stuck in a tree and the fire department won't come out to help ya! You'll be callin' ol' Sup! Seriously, sure, Cam could have handled himself a little different. Then again, I don't think his post-game presser was that bad. I'm more concerned about what he was thinking on that fumble than anything else.
