Great game tonight.

My biggest question is why Cam wasn't taken out of the game after the big hit for concussion protocol. Earlier in the game, Marshall had been taken out for a hit that was far less viscous than the one against Cam. According to the protocol, he should have gone to the sideline to be evaluated for at least a play. Instead, he stayed in the game. Is the NFL going to be selective in how they apply the rule?

On a side note...Cam needs to learn how to slide.

Agreed. Full disclosure, I am a Broncos fan. Never like to see anyone get hit in the head like that.... Definitely looked like the second incident rang his bell and he had a dazed look on his face coming out of the huddle.

Not ok, but I'm sure the player personality like Newton is factored into whether or not they pull them from the game.

Yeah, he should have been pulled for evaluation, on another note still posing, I thought he might have grown up after the Super Bowl loss, too immature to win against the Broncos. A lot of mistakes.

There has been football already. I watch college, as it's not $40M babies being full time pricks.

College football. Now with no tradition...which is what college football should be about. Instead, Vegas wants them to have a playoff system because they want to bet on it.

College football used to be great. It isn't now. You have 2 or 3 teams that are powerhouses, and than the rest which are lower tier. There is NO parity in college football, so half the games are blowouts against creampuff teams.

College football actually sucks now compared to before the BCS and playoff systems. Rose Bowl? Used to be Pac-10 vs. Big 10. Was fun to watch, and no one really cared who was #1. Now it's all about schedule manipulation to go undefeated against creampuffs.

I agree. It has sucked seeing some colleges turn into such pro driven farm teams, and the utter loss of discipline and education. Half the ones in the NFL can barely speak English. But if it comes down to watching a college game, or the nonsense that is now the NFL, it's an easy choice.

My take aways:
- Denver's plan at QB with Trevor Siemian seemed nuts, but he played really well on balance I thought
- Carolina has a run defense issue
- Denver coaches their players to play dirty; this is 3rd year I have seen this kind of head hunting/nasty play

Champs looked way better than I thought they would. Very good team.

OK.....Bronco fans....nice game!!!!!!! I looooove my football. Your Broncos signed my one of youngest son's best friends (since HS)....# 97 DT....Billy Winn....was with Browns for 4 years....I hope he shows what he's really made of with the Broncos.

I don't think Siemian played that well at all. But as long as he can be a game manager, their run game and defense will keep them in games. just like last season.
