      But Russel Wilson saw something and he switched it. This was the beginning of the end for the Seahawks. After that apparently nobody respected Russ on the team. They chalked it up that he may of wanted to take the spotlight. Because statistically that day and season, Marshawn was having a night and that was a guaranteed TD.

He was kind of a dick before and after that, but it's hard for me to judge the guy solely based on 100milliseconds of his career.

      If it was just one play, though at an extremely crucial point in the game where the potential circle of guilty parties is relatively small, and some Saints fans have alleged someone like Goodell, having this sinister, shadowy, villianous, Mafia don control of NFL operations, would make sure that any paper trail, incriminating phone calls, e-mails, documents involving perpetrators and officials was eliminated so even if someone lets say did come forward, like a former NFL assistant exec who had some involvement or knowledge but not intimately came forward later on with these allegations 5-10 years later: where's his proof? Because they'd be making serious allegations on an event where a good portion of incriminating evidence has been eliminated and no longer exists and even if some of the primary few antagonists do eventually come out and c!aim subterfuge, too much time would have passed and the Teflon NFL behemoth could deny and publicly refute them that it becomes a PR war that they'd find a way to emerge unscathed. If they were to suffer some backlash and damage, so what? Its an acceptable loss, look at how they've handled the CTE controversy over a decade ago from an image perspective and the Colin Kaepernick's "social justice" protest movement where many NFL players started refusing to stand for the national anthem and it wasnt until the larger George Floyd riots in 2020 that validated their position. They offered meaningful, significant "band aid" solutions long enough and to such an extent until these issues gradually faded away or lost their potency that they began resuming the same policies, albeit more quietly.
      Their are maybe a few other things I could say about Goodell as it relates to this damning controversy but it's best to not go down that road because I don't want to make myself more upset.

    Following the Super Bowl loss, the very first regular season game of the next season was a re-match between the Broncos and Panthers in Denver. It was a 20-21 loss for the Panthers in another defensive slugfest that once again saw Newton abused. I've always thought that might have contributed to the soul-crushing he suffered after the SB loss. Here he had a small chance at redemption - but fell short again at the hands of the same Von Miller-led defense. Probably was a little cruel for the NFL to schedule that game.

Bro what future this is the fourth quarter of the super bowl this is what you play for! There is no tomorrow. There is nothing to save for! As a kid in you play in your backyard with your friends making up scenarios like this. There is no saving or playing for next week. The game was still 16-10. A single touchdown takes the lead and he backed off the fumble. Unreal. So heart breaking as a general fan to see.

    Cam thrives on his ego. As long as he feels like a super hero and he’s getting all the attention, he plays well. As soon as things start going down hill and he looks bad, he spirals. He was thriving on that that whole season. Then when he was humbled, he never recovered. He then switched to the Pats and came in with the same mindset of “I’m gonna be a hero and save the Pats”. Didn’t go as planned and he never did well. Then he gets traded back to Carolina and gets to be the hero again returning to his old team.

Auburn boosters donated over $50k to his dad's church and poof he arrived at Auburn. Newton was a prima donna and could read the signs at UF that there were at least 2 leaders at the QB position better/more of team players than him so he got shopped around. His dad asked for over $150k to go to Mississippi State, btw. His heisman season should have been counted null and void. Cam got drafted and it wasn't his skill that took them to the Super Bowl, in fact he rarely did very well in most playoff games. He was underwhelming often and would choke a lot in the playoffs.

More of a question about his dad than about him.

    Completely agree about how this play changed his career and how Carolina fans saw him. All Carolina fans could not understand how he did not dive for that ball. A lot of people overlook how the Michael Ohr injury transformed the team after he got hurt with multiple concussions and would never play again. This would create the terrible left tackle situation that would eventually lead to the offensive line turning to crap and cause Cam to be pounded. His legacy will be that he was a great runner and played hero ball well, but they had to go get him tall receivers because he was inaccurate. He really made a living throwing the ball deep to Ted Ginn and across the middle to Greg Olsen, but sideline throws were always very inaccurate and where most of his interceptions came from. Once he got the arm injury it was unfortunately the beginning of the end since he could no longer play hero ball and throw the deep pass. When he had to rely on short and intermediate patterns that required timing, it turned really bad.

      What are u talking about couldn’t hit wide open receivers with the Patriots? Are u kidding me? They didn’t give Cam hardly shit with the Patriots as weapons to help him.
      When the got new weapons in 2021, & promised them to Cam, they took them & gave them to Mac Jones. Belichick got fired with Mac Jones. Kraft promised them to Cam & changed! . Mac got traded. The Patriots are now in purgatory. How they did Cam so wrong, the chickens 🐓🐓🐓 came back to roost! 😱

    The play hurt a lot, as it was the closest I've ever seen to where you could say a player on his level, in a still winnable game, quit. It felt like Cam made a business decision and the only way you make that business decision is if you think the game is over, you just can't score on this defense. But I think Phillips also created the blueprint for stopping Cam at that time as Wade was the first person to decide to just ignore Cam's Scrambling and bring the edge heat against vulnerable tackles of the panthers. It seemed obvious afterwords that Cam was a great runner, but his running was always designed runs not scrambling, but that game was when everyone seemed to just realize it at once. Good video.

I hated that he was in our division, because I secretly enjoyed watching him play and saw the enormous potential he had. He just needed the right coaching and mentorship.

Sure, the non-recovery on the fumble is undoubtedly the lowest point of Cam's career, but it's definitely not what ended it. He came back from that low moment and continued to perform at a high level (obviously not as high as his MVP season, but still always a threat with the ball.) But once he took that hit from TJ Watt.... he was never the same QB again after that. THAT was the play that ended Cam's career.

      Edelman isn't throwing the ball. He gets injured and Brady still has other receivers he can throw to. If Brady gets injured - the game is over. I've always thought it was a low percentage recovery as other players were closer to the ball and Cam is a big guy to get low so fast. But there was a very high probability he would have picked up an injury as in a scrum the opposition will prioritize hurting the QB. The smart play is for Cam to trust his guys to recover the ball so he can capitalize later. But that doesn't mean it's the right play.
