From what I've seen so far, that could be worse than the current situation as we'd be seeing new refs every fugging weekend.

Fair point.

I'm a big proponent of having full time officials but I kinda doubt the referees union is ever going to allow that to happen and the NFL doesn't seem willing to force it.

I like the idea of accountability, though. I'm not banking on it happening, but it would be nice to see some.

The problem I have is that as biased as the current batch of refs are, either for/against certain teams/players or towards/against home teams (talking hochuli and his ilk here), I think those reviewing them will also be prone to those biases.

Stuff is too open to interpretation, which it shouldn't be.

Don’t understand how it’s gotten so bad. Or maybe it’s always been like this but now with all the technology we have it’s easier to highlight their screw-ups.

Would not mind seeing the Aints getting fugged again

Well if you listen to Raider fans, it's been lousy since the 1972 playoffs.

I didn't really notice until the replacements came in and were obviously horrible. I kept waiting for the day that the real ones came back expecting it would be better. 

It wasn't.

In the world of it could be worse, it could really be worse. And it once was. And it was once even worse than that, we just didn't realize it.

I really think it is getting better, but we now have sooo many angles, so many nuances in the game that it's nearly impossible for any human to correctly call a game.

Well to be fair, at least with the regular refs none of our division games were being officiated by rival fans.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.

      Official Panthers roster cuts thread

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.

      Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.
