2012 NFL Week 3

[TBProdigy]

Kicks off tonight with
NY Giants Vs. Carolina Panthers

Not much to cheer for besides Eli Manning, we can only hope he defeats the myth that is scam newton.

 

[backrow]

Luke Kuechly would be the only reason to watch this game for me. i hope he and Blackburn do well.

 

[FootballDad]

I will primarily be rooting for whichever white guys are on the field, but anytime that one of the media's favorite black quarterbacks is playing, I root for everybody on the opposing defense. I want to see sCam have a bad game so he will pout and do other childish things that he does when things aren't going his way.

 

[bearclaw500]

Don't forget about Greg Olsen. He has been quiet the first two games. He is probably due for a good game.

 

[Liverlips]

Both teams start a paltry 5 whites, though the Giants will be back to 6 when Diehl is back. They also seem to have more white subs.

Scam is playing to his usual standards tonight. Even a few of the Carolina DWFs were booing him.

 

[tarvaris jackson mvp]

This game is beyond bad. Carolina Panthers would get beaten by a handful of college teams with proper officiating.
So they said Kuechly was cut 7 times by 5 different teams? And then he goes and makes a series of key tackles in the 1st half and pretty much is their best defensive player? does anyone else on this forum or lurkers who read still need any proof just how rigged this league is? Olsen with a great catch in the 1st half as well.

That was in reference to Andre Brown, the Giants' running back, not Kuechly.

I'm looking forward to the Denver-Houston game on Sunday. The Texans' White stars on defense against Peyton Manning as he struggles to get the Broncos' offense rolling. Not to mention there'll be 18 or 19 White starters between the two teams.

What are you talking about? This is a GREAT game, especially if you were able to nab Andre Brown for your FF team. :icon_wink:

 

[davidholly]

Newton is intercepted for the second time.

 

[davidholly]

Newton intercepted again, his third of the night.

 

[Leonardfan]

3 INTs thrown by sCAM...awesome:rockon:

 

[backrow]

7 for 98, not bad! especially with Cam's getting exposed...

 

[Kaptain]

More good news is that the Amendola has a good chance of leap frogging the two guys in front of him for the nfl receiving yards leader. Hakeem Nicks did not play and Victor Cruz only got 42 yards. He only needs 50 yards to go ahead of Cruz.

 

[Tom Iron]

I thought Newton might be the real deal, but he's the same as all the other black QBs. He shows no guts and even with the team in a hole, all he thinks of is showing off because he scores. It never changes with blacks. It's always just a matter of time with a black before they louse up. The only unknown factor is, just what it is they'll do to louse themselves up.

Yeah, what kind of person has a touchdown celebration when their team is down by 23 points?

 

[Freethinker]

Not only that but the touchdown was lame. A 1 yard run in which he barely broke the plan after getting stuffed the play before. Newton may put up huge numbers again this year, but he's a loser. The Panthers seem destined for another 6-10 type of season.

Black receiver, Joe Adams, a fairly high pick, had 2 critical fumbles for the Panthers last night. One on a kick return and one while receiving a punt. The botched punt was especially bad. If a White guy had a game that bad, he'd be cut. Of course this slot man will be safe for years since he's from an SEC team. Meanwhile guys like Dan DePalma (Giants' cut) and David Douglas (Giants' practice squad), who have good receiving and return skills, await their chance that will never come.

 

[Budmademewizer]

That was a nasty game last night but at least Olsen and Kuechly had good games and seeing sCam getting pulled and sulking gave me a good laugh.

Looks like Steve Smith is having to play a daddy role for sCam again this year and jump all over him for being a big titsack on the sidelines.This is at least the third time that Smith has lit into sCam about his attitude and he also had a few of his lineman get on him about it last year.Makes me wonder if we will get to see sCam pull a VY in a year or so and have a meltdown because of immaturity or attitude.

I can't wait! He is already showing the AHDIW disposition. That and RGIII already crying after 2 games, gotta love it! Never once did I see Blaine Gabbert cry, pout, throw a hissy fit, or anything like that even when saddled with a lousy team and being endlessly spit on by DWFs and the media.

 

[Don Wassall]

What struck me about last night's game is how effortlessly two black scrubs filled the shoes of the injured Ahmad Bradshaw and Hakeem Nicks. Andre Brown is slow and has few moves, but has good power and ran hard and with purpose and as a result piled up big yardage to go with 2 TD runs. Ramses Barden had done nothing for three seasons in the NFL but suddenly was open all over the field, catching pass after pass from Eli. Credit also goes to the Giants line, which dominated Carolina's d-line.

Who gets legitimate opportunities in the NFL usually comes down to highly drafted players, which as we document regularly is a poorly done, almost arbitrary process decided by draft "gurus" and scouts that results in amazing numbers of drooled over picks that go on to become busts, much like the opportunity high school players get in college depends greatly on the "scouting services" which are blatantly biased toward black high school players over star White high school players.

Player selection and opportunity is highly subjective and arbitrary in the NFL, moreso than in baseball and hockey. Since so much attention is always focused on the quarterback and whoever has the ball, very few people have any clue how effective the other 20 players are on a given play, including apparently to some degree coaches and scouts. The media can promote some sumo o-lineman as "great" and everyone will agree as they don't know how to evaluate said player themselves, whereas an astute baseball or hockey fan has better knowledge of who's producing and who isn't, plus there are many statistical ways to measure performance that don't apply as well in football. There are all kinds of White players who could have produced as Barden and Brown did, but the vast majority are racially filtered out long before they can become even scrubs at the pro level.

 

[referendum]

One somewhat encouraging aspect of last nights game was the performance of Cam Newton. This was the Panthers first prime time appearance, I believe, of the new Newton Era, and his bad performance shows that not everything can be scripted to lead to a black QB victory, or stellar performance on demand. Good to see teams not laying down just because they are facing the next generation of athletic demigods, on prime time no less.

Yes Hillis is lucky he is built like a brickhouse. If he were built along the lines of Joe Martinek he wouldn't have made the Broncos and would be working a regular job or at best bouncing around the minor leagues or semi-pro beer leagues. It took 5 tailbacks falling like soldiers on the battlefield before he got his shot.

There are posters who think the rules have been rigged (or the games scripted) for Newton and other black QBs. Why then, did Newton flop in prime time against the defending Super Bowl champion?

 

[referendum]

I for one fall in the middle ground on this issue of black QB's. On the one hand, they seem to get chance after chance, the media has annoying love affairs with them, etc, etc. However, I do believe that there is enough competition left that at least the most incompetent ones will sooner or later get weeded out or at least demoted to backups, such as JaMarcus Russel, Cleo Lemon, Josh Johnson, Tavaris Jackson etc.

Because he sucks and the refs can't help him EVERY time now can they? Such an obvious show of favoritism would be much too noticeable.

This, plus the refs have been under huge fire from the media in the past few days, the kind of **** they pulled in first 2 weeks will not fly again.
And Don Wassall, thanks for the correction, makes me feel a little better now
