Panthers has had the top 2 SB rating games in the last 20 years, why doesn't the NFL favor us out there?

Look at the numbers we put up. Our 2015 year brought something new to the NFL and they hated on us that game and the next year game vs them, wasup with that? The Saints will their little celebrations, all these teams took our poo and ran with it but it was a problem when Panthers was dabbing

May the best team win of course, but the NFL might want to look at last night SB being the lowest in 10 years and analyze some things. Not good. I think this says when the Panthers are doing good, it's good for the NFL

I think our 2015 SB is #3 all-time nationally as well. But, the last 4 Super Bowls are the top 4 nationally, so there is that. 

Another interesting fact.. our 2015 SB is CBS’s most watched broadcast ever.

 

Super Bowl 50's high ratings came from it being Peyton Manning's last game. No one moved the needle for TV ratings over the past 20 years more than him. And also, Super Bowl XXXVIII did do very well, I think it was the 2nd highest rated Super Bowl to that point behind only Super Bowl XXX. That was really a perfect Super Bowl from an entertainment standpoint: Beyonce sang the national anthem, you had the craziness of the halftime show, and the 2nd best finish to a Super Bowl at that time too.

It’s because we have a confident, flamboyant, and unasbashed black QB and the league can’t have that man winning a SB. Deny it all you want but there’s a reason the Saints no call completely blew up in the leagues face and not SB 50 where Cam Newton was head hunted all night with no flags, bs no catch call and two critical offsides penalties that were not called.

I fear we won’t be able to win a SB until penalties will be challeneable. We might get close, playoffs, NFCCG, but they’ll screw us. It always happens. That’s probably the silver lining of the Saints game. Since they are media darlings the league will listen and make some changes.

    • I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
    • Depends if they see the writing on the wall with their roster and contracts and decide to bite the bullet and begin a complete rebuild and roster overhaul.  I have no clue why some franchises (IE us) refuse to do this and keep half assing trying to win 8 games or so.  Do it correctly, take your lumps and build a contender.  We shall see what loomis decides.
    • Each team plays 17 games.  I do not see why they don't just have each team play one international game per year.  Neutral site game, 8 home, 8 away.
