About what I realistically expected

Also, Vontaze will think he could wear the wrong color socks and get that tiny fine. So from his perspective, dirty play likely is worth the nominal fine. Maybe next time he will get better results

This isn't really going to do anything. He's been fined before, the only way you're going to stop an idiot like that is take him off the field.

Is the NFL too cowardly to take any action now after the Rice screw up?

You would think they would drop the hammer to prevent another backfire. Limp wristed penalties are why they are under scrutiny now.

      good one dude. I guarantee I went to more games than you last year and I live on the opposite side of the country. let me give you some FAQ's to save you some time from asking another dumb question while trying to passively fit your narrative: do I think Bryce is a great NFL QB? No. do I think Bryce is worth a contract extension? Not yet. do I think the Panthers are in a great position to evaluate him and then decide? Yes. did Bryce and the Panthers do enough last year and finish on a high note that has me feeling positive and excited for the next season? Yes. is wasting a single second whining and complaining about a player that I dislike on a fan forum for a football team that is watched for entertainment purposes only an efficient way to spend my time? Definitely not. are the same 5-10 posters that spend hours on here daily racking up thousands of posts focusing on something they cannot control ruining this forum? 100%. will they continue to do so? 100% and probably will do so for the next QB as well because they are miz in life and complaining about things that don't involve them make them feel better about their lives which is a psychological fact.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      Overall it was a fun pleasant surprise of a game. That final drive by the Panthers was atrocious though. It would have been nice to at least go down landing a few blows not just punching air. We shrunk in the moment. I don't want to say it took away from the rest of the game but it was certainly unfortunate.
