Every time he is about to get sacked he spikes it into the ground or near the back of the lineman, KA would not get away with this not to mention you cant touch the guy. I know this is a well known fact but im venting because id love to nock that s*** eating grin after every call he gets off his face.

We literally lost yesterday because the refs would rather call a phantom bullsh*t roughing the passer call, instead of an OBVIOUS intentional grounding in the endzone (that would have been a safety), which would have been 2 points AND the ball before the half. Lions got hosed in Lambeau, and we just got hosed in Lambeau. It's almost as worse as the superdome.

His night have been borderline, rodgers was blatant

I agree with the borderline on KA's potential grounding.  Most angles of KA's were pretty bad, but there was an angle from behind the QB where the referee was standing that showed the ball on a line in the direction of Jarius Wright.  It didn't get anywhere near him, but you could make a case that if the arm wasn't hit, it might have been intended for him.

Exactly, he tried to get it there, thats the whole point of non intentional grounding.

He threw two that should have been safetys both with a defender in his face.

That all true but the refs had nothing to do with our D-line handing out rushing yards like Halloween candy and giving the the QB time to look through his treat bag. 

Yes both lines werent good honestly but kyle did good considering...the d on the other hand against the run was abysmal. However the secondary even with all the groin injuries stood stout besides 17 pulling in that amazing catch. The D did enough exspecially when we stopped them in their own endzone... The penalty was deflating but the score still was close regardless, if not for the refs wr probably win. Also the D came up big on that 4th down holding them to no pts, gotta give a little credit at least a D+.

It honestly just makes you not want to watch the game anymore. It's just a shitty NFL product and the league doesn't care about making the game truly fair. Neither do the officials. You put in a new review rule and they just ignore it because they are indignant and petty.

IMO spiking the ball to stop the clock should be an intentional grounding call.

Nah.  The reason grounding exists is to prevent QB's avoiding a sack that way.  With spiking the ball, the QB isn't trying to avoid a sack, he's just stopping the clock.  The loss of down is plenty of penalty for that.

Then run a route, and throw it over their head.  Just not a fan of the spiking rule.

      Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
