re: Cam Newton to locker room - Concussion Protocol

I'm just seeing it during the game. That's all.

I must have missed it. Only games I've heard of where people questioned the hits were Denver and Atlanta. After the Denver game, he said he wasn't questioning the refs. After the Atlanta game, he's still seeing stars and hasn't said anything.

Would Odell dive on a fumble in the super bowl?

He can read and break down a defense and keep it honest. Then when in trouble, he can take off. Just frickING SLIDE!

He actually does slide most of the time after he scrambles out of the pocket or if he's in the second level of the defense. He's usually highly aware of when he's going to take a hit, and since he's been in the league he normally gets down unless it's a goal-line play.

The showboating during the play thing needs to stop though. Nothing positive can result from it and it can only hurt his team. I don't get the need for celebrations/dances/routines or what the frick ever, regardless of what position they play. I've never understood this kind of behavior. Then again, I think SnapChat, Instagram, or whatever other form of bullshite look-at-me app that helped create or promote this selfie culture and the incessant need to draw attention to oneself is ridiculous, so maybe I'm just out of touch.
