Good lord that game was a mess. I saw more shit sportmanship that game than I have ever. Both sides deserve some fines or something when theres almost a fight on the field first quarter.

There is a darkness in you. In all of us, probably. Beasts we keep chained. Ordinary men have to keep the chains strong, for if we let the beast loose then society will turn upon us with fiery vengeance. Kings though...well, who is there to turn upon them? So the chains are made of straw. It is the curse of kings, Helikaon, that they can become monsters. And they invariably do.

Yay! The stallions scored more home runs than the cheetahs! Did you see that hole in one in the first trimester? Man, that goalie was on fire! Stupid ref should have red carded that one guy. Good sportsball though. Yay Clydesdales!

There was a point in the game where Newton had the ball stripped from him, and the ball tumbled before him. Deep in his own zone, down 1 score, it was a HUGE point in the game. Rather than dive in to get the ball, he stepped back, away from the action.Originally Posted by Shinsou Vaan Osiris
It was a memorable, despicable moment. Newton is a chickenshit fraud, and that's the nicest thing I can say about him.
I've told Gnarly a time or two, I am, for all intents and purposes, a Tottenham Hotspurs fan. On this side of the pond, though, I am an avid (and rabid) Houston Dynamo (MLS) fan.
Leicester City are fun to root for this year though.

The QB should never dive into something like that for the ball. If he gets injured (in the hypothetical where the Panthers didn't have train run on them), it would have screwed up all kinds of his mobility, or taken him out of the game.
Would you want Tom Brady's perfect face or godlike arm damaged in a scuffle?
Did Cory just sportsball correctly? I think he did. Egads. Apocalypse is coming!!!

I only pay attention to the post-season games, because football (American, but also real football) is incredibly boring most of the time without people getting extraordinarily emotional over the games.
Or any normal game between The Patriots and The Giants. Several of my friends are New York fans, and I love to watch the tears and whimpered reminiscing about the 2012 Superbowl.
WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG
If it's a midseason interception, I'm fine with the QB getting out of the way to keep himself from getting hurt.
IN THE FOURTH QUARTER OF THE SUPERBOWL, DOWN ONE SCORE, what are you saving yourself for? Get your ass in there and fight for the ball!
Brady is a perfect example of this - he definitely scoots out of the way in the regular season and on non-critical plays, but also fights for the ball when needed.
Here is an example of him fumbling the snap, and getting in to fight for the ball. It was a regular season game, and he lost the ball, but he didn't scoot away.
Brady also recovered a fumble last year in the Super Bowl, where Michael Bennett stripped and tackled him. Brady fought out of the grasp of Bennett to get the ball back.
Here is Tom Brady leading the Pats to the biggest 4th Quarter Comeback in Super Bowl History last year Just in case you forgot what good football looked like.
Cam Newton's number 6 in the top Ten leaders in rushing yards this season, the only QB to be there. Tom Brady's at number 30. I like Brady's gusto too, it tends to make the game more enjoyable, but if you're comparing how both QBs operate, Cam is way more varied in how he can score, and thus much more susceptible to even minor injury.
I'm not saying it was the right call in hindsight, but at the moment he had to decide to dive for it at a risk, or keep his options open to score later in the game. And while it was the fourth quarter, there was still plenty of time to turn that game around - if the rest of his team could do a damn to stop him from being sacked.
