hochuli's crew made no mistakes in that game.

i'll say it again, they made no mistakes.

they set out to do the very thing they did...level the playing field, taking away the home advantage by calling the game in favor of the away team.

this is something that hochuli's crew has done for years. i mentioned this and provided a link from a couple years back that showed it in one of the threads talking about the bad officiating. his crew not only has been one of the most flag happy crews in the league, but is consistently among the very worse in regards to flags being heavily in favor of the away team.

hochuli is a lawyer with the power of a judge on the playing field. this is what you get. a ref who feels his job is to make the playing field level between home and away teams.

it might be just me, but that's not the refs job. call the game. don't try to manage the game.

this is why more challenges need to be made available and every play should be challengeable. some would say that takes away from the game, but officiating like we just witnessed takes away more from it.

They are also notorious for not calling o-line holding. I'll never forget one flag Hochuli picked up, saying it wasn't holding because Peppers was "powering through". wtf

it seemed to me the saints player did some magic to make him trip, which is also illegal. should've been ejected imo.

of course, these kinds of things are much easier to swallow in the context of a fair game. had it not capped off three and a half quarters of just awful, awful calls it probably would've been easier to take. as it was fans had reached a tipping point. i've never heard such sustained booing through the tv before... people were pissed.

I was one of those pissed fans booing as loud as I could. I'm not a conspiracy theory guy but it was hard to see it any other way. Every time  we stopped them there was another penalty to extend the drive. It was ridiculous.

The 2015 Carolina Panthers are 3-0 not because they've done everything right, but because they've shown the resiliency to win even when everything goes wrong. Championship teams have the enviable quality of pulling out wins that should never have happened. The 2015 Carolina Panthers did that on Sunday.

This^^^

The Panthers (as a team) now have the internal fortitude to power through adversity instead of folding under pressure.  A quality many players have had through the years, but something the team as a whole has been lacking since 2003.

One thing I noticed was that on the bad spots, the line judges were simply not in position to spot the ball.  When the saints were given the benefit of the spot on 4th and 1, both line judges were 5 yards down the field.  They had little chance to make a good spot due to being out of position.

There was also a play where the panthers threw a ball into the end zone and maybe there was pi but the ref completely turned his head away from the play while the ball was approaching like he was afraid the ball would hit him.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
