worst officiatied game in nfl history

I have never seen an o-line hold as much as the Falcons o-line in that game. The held on run plays, pass plays, on the bench, in the locker room, and on the sidelines. Never I'n my life have I ever seen an o-line get away with that much holding. The refs were looking right at clear holding, and the would count to GD 10 before even considering calling it. I've NEVER seen it that bad before.

It wasn't just the o-line that was holding! The Falcon fullback was running up to Beason and literally grabbing him and pulling him from behind. That was flat out focking cheating, and they got away with it in spades. Fox needs to gather up all the clear holding footage (dozens of plays) and send it in to the league. Never in my life. If I were out there coaching the Panthers, I would have hit the GD roof.

such a bogus pass interference call on 4th down for the flacons in the 2nd qtr----horrible roughing thr passer call for ryan when brayton hit him no chance of a holding call on atl's o-line on charles johnson------------wtf no wonder fox was so pissed

I was watching on tv and in real time I would have agreed with both of the first two examples. Watching the replays I changed my mind.

I think Fox was more pissed that he felt the Atlanta sideline influenced the refs than he did have a problem with the actual calls.

As to holding....every damn game. You have to wear a Cowboy/Patriot/Colts jersey to get consistent holding calls made against your opponent.

    • Bryce and Dave will determine how many games this team wins next year. It’s not on the WRs. The RBs. LBs. This is about 2 things: 1. Can Bryce continue to come up big in the few key downs that decide most games?  2. Can Canales evolve his play calling to counter punch like the big boys do. Half time adjustments.  teams that score 30+ points on the regular win more games than not. That’s on Bryce and Dave. The offense is top 10 at every position group, save for TE and QB. A baller TE is gravy but not crucial when the receivers are dudes.  The defense is the defense. It’ll be better this season, hopefully by a large margin, but Dave/Bryce is really where it’s at. 
    • Normally I'd wholeheartedly agree with this. But I feel like teams figured out this offense after the Raiders game. Bryce was so inept the first 2 games that we couldn't really even run the offense. Dalton's first game showed what we had. But after that game, coverages got a lot tighter and windows were smaller. When Bryce came back in, his ability to extend plays made a big difference. It's really difficult to stop a QB that can beat/escape 1on1 tacklers. It puts a lot of pressure on the defense when you blitz. And he was completing throws in tight coverage with anticipation. Point being Bryce wasn't throwing to wide open receivers that were schemed open by the offense. Occasionally yes. But not often. 
    • With the additions we've made to our roster combined with the state of the division and the conference as a whole there is no excuse for this team not to make a legitimate push for 8-9 wins. Anything less is honestly inexcusable. There will be no more free passes for being a doormat in this iteration of the league where even mediocre teams are competing for playoff spots.
