After that white knuckle Broncos vs Pats game, the absolute destruction of the Arizona Cardinals by the Carolina Panthers was almost hard to watch.
The Panthers don't look like a team merely getting hot at the right time, they look the best team from from the future.
Like what Star Wars looked like in 1977.
A new thing.
And a bunch of that comes from Cam Newton.
In baseball where they say, "That guy is a 5 tool player."
How many tools does Newton have?
There probably isn't enough digital ink to write it out.
So I just simplified it to gravity.
That guy has the weight to crush the hopes and dreams of any defense.
How impressed were you with the linebackers on the Broncos?
DeMarcus Ware and Von Miller beat the crap out of the Pats.
Don't think I've ever seen Brady get smacked around like that - just brutal.
It also seemed like the refs were sort of... not calling things they normally would with the late QB hits and stuff.
Anyway, those two Bronco LBs make me think the actual football part of the Super Bowl might be pretty interesting, but I fully expect the Panthers to bring the apple down.
Ummm... enough with the science stuff.
I'm not even sure the drawing makes sense - still completely jet-lagged.
We saw The Revenant on Sat nite, and it's loud, pure wild action at the start.
I was SO EXCITED at the start.
Then suddenly I woke up and he was fighting a bear.
No idea how much I missed, but jet lag is a real, physical thing.
That was an amazing performance by Newton! Love your graphic.
This season may well be the beginning of Newton's reign as the best QB in football. Seems like an upstanding guy to boot!
This Superbowl is the past against the future. Should be fun.

Hi Rich.
As we get closer to the bowl I'm sure we'll see a billion "future vs past" headlines.
And that's a good story too.
But you're right - Cam's the man.
