No, it isn't. I even said Cam made the wrong decision.
Not absolving Cam from blame at all. I'm simply saying that there are others that are equally as culpable, if not more on THAT play.

Some of y'all have HAD IT.
I've had it. I've defended Cam all season. He played bad on Sunday as did his team. Cam has suddenly become a player who can't be criticized. If your white and say something your automatically a racist. If your anything else your a hater. Cam isn't some God who's immune to criticism like folks would have you believe.

I don't think anyone is saying he is immune to criticism. The only thing that can be criticized in my eyes is the fumble play everything else is just noise and doesn't matter.

An that's all I'm being critical of today. His effort on that play. I'm being bombarded with what the lineman did before the fact. As if calling out Cams effort somehow lets the lineman off the hook.

Ya really, why can't cam be criticized? MVP qb on the number 1 offense. Number 1 defense though

WHAT?
He's been getting undue criticism from the moment he stepped foot on the NFL gridiron.
Talmbout immune.
If anything people are beyond tired of Cam always being the NFL's whipping boy (no, no racial connotation intended with the term whipping boy).
Though if we're going to touch on the topic of race, Cam has been subject to repeated racial epithets on social media. You don't see Tom Brady getting called a thug or being called racial slurs because he decided to cuss out his coordinators and teammates.
You didn't see Bill Belichick receive nearly this level of vitriol for leaving the game in 2008 against the Giants in XLII with a second left on the game clock w/o shaking anyones hand.
You don't see those things. Again, Cam was going to be subject to character assassination whether or not he won and whether or not he conducted himself differently during the post game interview. That's not to say all his detractors are racist, but many of them are. Don't downplay that and don't downplay the fact that there's clearly a double standard when it comes to Cam Newton and certain black athletes in general.
End of discussion.

Again no one is saying he can't be criticized its just some of the stuff people are criticizing (like the press conference) is stupid
although there hasn't been much press conference talk today fortunately.

Just stop it bro. You have no idea who I am or my thoughts on race and Cam in general. Ask the other members of this thread about my thoughts on these topics and get caught up. You totally missed the point. It's because of the constant barrage of things Cam has dealt with that people come to his defense in such a way. Yes he takes more criticism then most if not all. That doesn't mean he can't be criticized when he gives a lack of effort. That was my point.

Lets just stop second guessing and disclose our race, sex, social status, income, religion, political beliefs etc and get it over with.

You keep running around yelling for a cosign.
"ask the members of the thread".
"ask the members of the thread".
"ask the members of the thread".
Nobody cosigning you homie. You're downplaying the fact that Cam has been catching vitriol and criticism since he's been in the league. When other people in this league, be it players or coaches or even OWNERS, conduct themselves in a manner that isn't endearing, they don't encounter the same level of vitriol.
Nobody is saying Cam isn't deserving of criticism. At least I'm certainly not. The crux of my entire argument is "why isn't anyone else receiving any blame?".
For some reason, you can't comprehend that. Here we are spinning our tires as a result. If you don't think anyone else is deserving of any blame, fine. Say that. Or else just deal with my opinion w/o making foolish conclusions on my level of viewership.

You just proved why me asking how long you watch is valid. You actually can't understand why a no name lineman isn't getting as much blame as a MVP Superstar QB?
Your trying to question my lack of seeing the racial issues invoked with Cam? ME of all people? Do this then since no one will "co sign". Go back and look at my post history before you start throwing around your BS about my lack of knowing what Cam has dealt with. You couldn't be more loud and wrong.

Just as I thought. You're a casual viewer. Doesn't matter how many posts you got in this thread, you're unable to think critically about this and you'll never be able to watch the game from more than a layman's perspective. Continue getting swept up in media narratives and rhetoric and keep missing the real issues son.
Not going to continue spinning tires with you kid, some folks never learn and you're one of 'em.
