Anybody else worried the NFL won't let Peyton lose his last game.


Recommended Posts

No, but if I go along and assume that there will be some kind of conspiracy in place I think the NFL has WAY more to gain by the Panthers winning and "handing off the baton" to Cam and the Panthers as a whole than by the Broncos winning.

That said, I don't think either will be the case.

Ray Lewis, Jerome Bettis, and (many more I can't think of) got to ride off in the sunset in the Superbowl. I know it's a conspiracy theory, but it's a thought.

for every player that rode off into the sunset ideally...there are 20 who didn't get the storybook ending.

If Peyton throws a 50 yard TD pass to Sanders over Josh Norman to win the game....well, hats off to him. 

But this is the year of Cam IMO.  Cam takes the torch IMO at the Super Bowl.

fug Peyton, fug his happy ending, fug a fairy tale, fug retirement, fug his noodle arm, fug their defense, fug the nfl, fug the refs, fug his epic comeback starts right now.

This is our time, this is our Superbowl.  The Lombardi is coming back to Charlotte.  That. Is. All.

Payton has already won a SB and the Media is not even giving him any credit for this year. The Spin will be the Panthers are the Warriors of the NFL. We will become the New Patriots who everyone hates but keep winning. 

As a Pats fan, I can confirm that being the successful villain is very fun.

Enjoy the next 2 weeks, and I hope your team crushes Peyton's hopes and dreams of going out on top!

I don't expect the refs will factor into the game too much.  Before our game started Sunday, Mike Pierra said the penalties were down over 30% in the playoffs.  That is because they want the players to decide the outcome, not the refs.  One of the reasons Manning had some poor playoff performances in Indy is because the DBs were VERY physical with their receivers and got away with it during the playoffs because the refs try to not have a negative impact on the game with the entire world watching.  If I were Rivera, I test the limits on how physical they're going to let our DB's be at the line of scrimmage and make Manning hold the ball longer than he would like.

I'll say the same thing that I say for every single one of these dumbass threads. 

 

If you really think that the NFL is some WWE style illuminati conspiracy, you're dumb for watching and caring period.

I agree with you in principle on the whole conspiracy theory.  However, it would NOT surprise me that any questionable call would go the Broncos way.

    • It was absolutely a catch, and I can’t believe how many folks were stating, before the NFL’s apology, that the overturn was the right call.  The ultimate question in this case is this: can a player complete a catch with only one hand? Of course, we all know the answer to that question, and it is an emphatic “Yes.” T-Mac maintained complete control with one hand (believe it was the right) while the other came off when the ball hit the ground. The ball was in the same position in the one hand (watch T-Mac’s fingers in relation to the NFL shield on the ball) after touching the ground as it was when it first went to the ground. Going back to the question above, if one hand can establish control, then there was no need for the other to stay on the ball, so long as the ball doesn’t move in that one hand that stays on it   It blew my mind that they overturned this in the first place. This should not be a “We got it wrong on the replay because there wasn’t clear and convincing evidence.” This should have been, “That was absolutely a catch.”
    • Sign him up. I am willing to bet he wouldn't finish a game with -2 yards.
    • He is just fuging limited in every way.  On one hand, and nfl player, you would want to bulk them up so long as it doesn’t limit their mobility, elasticity, flexibility, ROM, or dynamicism - as is the concern with bulking up.  But the issue with that is, you would be worried about that when a guy has those traits to begin with.  Bryce is a very average athlete with a weak arm.  So if you’re not gonna be a great athlete with a strong arm, bulk up.  And if you can’t or won’t bulk up, find another fuging profession that doesn’t require athleticism and arm strength.  You’re built like a bitch AND aren’t a great athlete - you can’t be subpar in both categories…  well, unless you play for the Panthers apparently.
