Remember when said Yeah, he still has a point. In the second quarter of Monday night's game between the and , Newton scrambled out of the pocket near the sideline. After cro sing the line of scrimmage, he began sliding.That's when he took a shot to the head from . Cam Newton penalized for taunting... Steve Noah (@Steve_OS) Yet Newton is the one who got flagged on the play ... for lightly to sing the ball in Quentin Richardson Jersey Murphy's direction immediately after the play ended, which ended up knocking the Panthers out of field-goal range. They were forced to punt because of the 15-yard penalty, so it cost them three points Ky Bowman Jersey . Clearly, it should've been a flag."That was a sliding QB and you have helmet to helmet contact. You should have had a call there." - Gerry Austin NFL on ESPN (@ESPNNFL) Here's the rule:Here's the rule that covers that no-call hit on Cam (Rule 7, section 2, article 1d): Chris Burke (@ Marcus Morris Jersey ChrisBurke_SI) And everyone watching knew that.NFL so aggre sively pursued an overbearing notion of sportsmanship they've egregiously empowered officials to ignore real on-field i sues. Will Brinson (@WillBrinson) I just can't with that call. Officials are more worried about flagging taunting than actually officiating the game. Absolutely absurd. Aaron Nagler (@AaronNagler) The rest of the world expects the refs to start overcorrecting on hits to Cam's dome. Refs like: nah. Kevin Patra (@kpatra) Cam Newton should have been mad. That was an illegal hit Pete Prisco (@PriscoCBS) Cam gets hit in head. No penalty. Cam to ses football at dude. Penalty. Can't make this stuff up. Think no flag on hit like that on Brady? mike freeman (@mikefreemanNFL) Cam is the only QB in the league that doesn't get that call Danilo Gallinari Jersey and he's one of the best. It makes no sense Nick Kostos (@TheKostos) Tom Brady gets that call. Eli Manning gets that call Amir Coffey Jersey . Philip Rivers gets that call. Drew Brees gets that call. I'm just sayin' Jason La Canfora (@JasonLaCanfora) Throw a football in someone's direction: flag, 15 yards.Throw your head at someone's head: no flag. Will Brinson (@WillBrinson) Can we skip to Cam Newton's postgame pre s conference now? Aaron Schoonmaker (@AaronSchoony) That is the kind of season it's been for Newton. against the and the punishment hasn't stopped. Monday night was just another example.
