Nah, That's Not Right
Asheville, N.C. ABC station WLOS tried a bit of pre-game prognostication on its early morning show today. There are... some problems here. (Given all three picked Pitt to win, is it possible they actually believed Notre Dame is playing the Steelers?) Anyway, misspellings and such aside even big-boy ...

Some Joker Woke Up The Carolina Panthers With The Hotel Fire Alarm
The Panthers are in Seattle today, putting their undefeated record to the test against the Seahawks. Seattle is struggling due to a menagerie of little problems (Marshawn Lynch’s health, late-game execution, an unhappy Jimmy Graham) and they need to start winning soon to push the somehow 4-1 Arizona...

Cam Newton Isn't Buying Ed Hochuli's Denial
On Sunday, Panthers QB Cam Newton said referee Ed Hochuli told him he didn’t get a call on a late hit because he wasn’t “old enough.” Hochuli denied it, and video of the conversation between the two appeared to show the ref telling Newton he didn’t get a flag because he was running outside the pocke...

Ed Hochuli Denies Telling Cam Newton He Isn't "Old Enough" To Get A Call
Cam Newton was upset about a borderline-late hit that went uncalled in Carolina’s 27-22 win over New Orleans, and he was even more upset by what he said was referee Ed Hochuli’s explanation: “He said, ‘Cam, you’re not old enough to get that call.’” Hochuli denies it, and if you can read lips, you ca...

This Is A Good Football Photo
Yahoo’s Kevin Kaduk spotted this photo—by Getty Images’ Mike Ehrmann—and said it looks like a video game. It really, really does. (You’ll want to click on the magnifying glass at top left to view it at full resolution. Even then, and maybe it’s the low angle or the gross uniforms or the scoreboard g...

Luke Kuechly Leaves Game With Scary Head Injury
Luke Kuechly left today’s game against the Jaguars with what looks like a head injury. Late in the second quarter, Kuechly tackled T.J. Yeldon with his head and immediately went into a daze and fell over. The trainer then fell down and knocked his helmet off, which would be funny were it not involvi...

The Cam Newton Fight Was A Long Time Coming
Cam Newton is a big talker, and when he beats the defense, the defense is going to hear all about it. Same goes for cornerback Josh Norman the other way. According to coach Ron Rivera, the two have been “chirping” at each other since camp started. So what happened yesterday was no surprise....

Cam Newton Mashes Josh Norman In Training Camp Fight
The best part of NFL training camp isn’t sitting out in 90-degree weather to watch your team run 7-on-7 or punt return walkthroughs. No, the best part of training camp is always the fights. And today, Carolina Panthers quarterback and demigod Cam Newton found himself demolishing a mortal cornerback....

Michael Oher Says <i>The Blind Side</i> Was Bad For His Career
New Panthers left tackle Michael Oher got into a fight at minicamp yesterday.

Oher blamed that Sandra Bullock movie....
