I checked the team's news page on NFL.com, and there isn't anything about him getting fined or suspended for getting in the ref's face and bumping him with his chest.

I also have to ask, why was he not ejected from the game??

Have you not seen his smile? How can you eject something like that?

Like I said before, if you look at the clip objectively it looks like he got up off the ground to get in the face of the defender and wasn't expecting/didn't see the ref moving in when he did so he popped up in the refs face accidentally.

If I was a panther's fan, I'd be a slightly concerned with the maturity of my QB.

Whether or not he was aiming for the ref, player, whatever; that move right there shows some childish frustration. (It appears to me that he never even looks at raider player but thats besides the point). The shot afterwards of him standing alone on the field looking like hes about to cry doesn't make it any better.

Add to this that he's had some bizarre post game conferences to say the least, and I would seriously be worried.

The guy has all the talent in the world but it all goes to waste if you don't have a solid head on top of those shoulders.

You know those clowns were fricking dancing on top of him right? If he gets punished for something like that then you're basically proving your bias because it's the exact same deal as the Bounty stuff in that we should never have been penalized.

Why are we not talking about the player who slammed his knee on the ground after Cam was already down?

The hatred for Cam is ridiculous, and this is coming from a lifelong Saints fan.
