VAR is ruining the beautiful game

Watching them measure in millimeters if someone was offside or not is just agonizing - regardless of who benefits in that particular game.  It is baffling that there's no common sense.  It's become worse than the "what's a catch in the NFL".

Fully agree.  If bigger player goes against smaller dude... while his body onside but due to size his hand 2 inches offside... it’s offside...  like wtf?  So VAR is smaller people favorite now?

Mentioned this in the other thread, it should be based on foot position and angle. The tech is there to measure that, and it's probably then incontrovertible. For a simple example, 50-60% of the attacking player's foot is past the last defender's foot, it's pretty obvious it's offsides then.

Completely agree.  When I said leg I meant foot.  That whole arm swing is so dumb.

      Known Prospect Meetings with Panthers

      Taking only players from the sheet that are realistically available in or after the listed round, I’d like… 1st: DT Caleb Banks (Styles not realistic) 2nd: LB Jacob Rodriguez 3rd: OT Best available from Bowry, Barber, and Casey 4th: CB Daylen Everette 5th: S Jalen Huskey 6th: RB Adam Randall 7th: IOL Best available from Lemieux, Dawkins, Leausa, and Brose   I know nothing about some of the players listed, but it seems like that would be the best way it could fall for now. I’m sure the list of who we meet will change a ton, and there will also be players we don’t meet with to keep quiet. I’d love to pick up Randall in the late rounds.

      Tight End: The Need is Bigger than We Think

      Not what I said. They know within the building why we aren't utilizing TEs more. If the rumors were true that we were seriously pursuing a couple of decent receiving TEs that strongly points toward a lack of quality receiving TEs currently on the roster. Does that mean we consider drafting one at 19? I don't know, but it wouldn't shock me and if we did there's only one guy it would be. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see TE drafting somewhere in the first three rounds.

      Yeah, I don’t know. Tepper was behind the Bryce selection. Behind firings and hiring over his lack of development.  He doesn’t have to literally tell them their hands are tied for them to know this. It is in the air constantly. The Canales Bryce play calling was even portrayed by more than one person as Canales failing Bryce, instead of Bryce being responsible for his own performance (except when he does well, then it is all him). Now they have an extra coach in, to help the new OC get results from this QB.  The atmosphere is not welcoming to prototypical young QBs that have talent. You get Jake Plummer types or old vets. I think we are stuck.
