That’s what I saw, too...and I was so pissed at Phil Simms during the replays starting the narrative that somehow Cam Newton “didn’t want it bad enough” to dive after the ball.

Cam Newton is TALL. The ball bounced right below him...with defensive players on their hands and knees closer to the ball. There’s no way he’s…

Brady? I hate the cheating crybaby but he absolutely would have dove headfirst after that ball. Hell, even the zombie corpse of Peyton Manning might have done it (and promptly crumbled to dust on impact). Wilson would have. Shit, any QB you’d care to name in the game-deciding play of the goddamned Super Bowl is diving…

Because he had no angle to get to it, that’s why he stepped back and reengaged.
