Talk about monday morning quarterbacking,..

Denver's defense won the game, but the Panther defense was pretty good too.
Sure it wasn't his best game, but the results were a nice way to quit at the top.

Guess we'll see,..

Despite all the BS talk about concussion protocol, I had the feeling Newton was concussed. His head seemed to get nailed really hard during a helmet to helmet tackle (red card for the defensive player) in one of his first half runs, and he got sacked pretty hard a couple(?) times at the end of the half. Then he ran to wrong tunnel at 1/2 time.

I also think it's time for red cards for unnecessary roughness calls. I nominate Aqib Talib for the first.

2. Near the beginning of the second quarter, Denver’s Aqib Talib grabbed Carolina’s Philly Brown by the face mask and flung him to the ground. It was Talib’s second 15-yard penalty of the first half. (He had previously been penalized for taunting.) Brown later left the game with a concussion.

I'm sure the Broncos can come up with examples of their own, but really regardless of the team, if you aim your helmet at another player's head, you're out. I wish they would make your team play a player short, but gee, maybe that won't happen.

Congratulations Bronco fans. For various reasons, none of them particularly good, I never liked the Broncos; but they certainly seemed the better team Sunday.
