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.

      Panthers run ONE play on repeat

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I'm left with two possible conclusions here. One, Reich just saw a sucker in Tepper and hit him up for a check to ride into retirement on. Two, Reich took the job expecting a different QB to be the pick probably through his influence of the draft process. He and Bryce seemed like a major mismatch from the get go. Unless he was just looking for one last payday I really don't think he would've taken the job if he felt like Bryce would ultimately be the pick. There was a lot of talk about Reich always preferring QBs with good size and big arms. Now granted, all else being equal who doesn't? But it was always talked about that Bryce was basically the physical antithesis of what Reich had historically preferred at QB. Hell, maybe it was a little bit of both. I can get this newbie owner to give me a pile of money based on my experience because his woefully inexperienced coach flopped horribly and then hopefully I can influence the draft process to get the QB I want. If not, oh well. At least I got paid! LOL

      How accurate is Madden for coaches?

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I don't think it's very accurate at all overall IMO. I just think back to the Cam era. Madden had to incorporate read option in order to even begin to replicate the Panthers' offense but there were only a handful of read option plays in the playbook. Realistically, I bet at a third of our passing plays in those days involved some aspect of read option and a third might be conservative.

      Welcome Charles Lee to Charlotte. He's the Hornets' new coach

      By frankw · Posted

      Well that's the problem. What's "good enough" at this juncture? Have we not learned anything from our Carolina Panthers in this area? I don't see us getting a proper return value right now with the rest of the NBA knowing our predicament. Look at what the Pelicans have dealt with in relation to Zion. The best path is to revisit this next year where there is a high probability his value will increase with improvement under Charles Lee. The biggest variable is the question of how much he will actually play. We just have to wait and see. I know one thing. The NBA better give us minimum another top 3 pick.
