Genuinely wondering about the fairness of the refs today.

Should have been a penalty. Same with the hit on Robby Anderson. But now we're set with PJ Walker so what's done is done.

 

Neither one of those were penalties. Learn the rules.

 

Runners don't get protected, and Sam was a runner. And Robby got hit with shoulder pads well within the strike zone. Sheesh.

 

Same with DJs TD drop. Some of you expect the Panthers to get every dang call. And go all ham when we don't.

It does not matter how clean the hit is. Clean or not, the rule states you are supposed to give the Receiver a chance to run and the defender did not. It should have been a penalty. Maybe you shouldn't be telling others to learn the rules?

lol This is the second time you've said this. It is not true.

 

And  you sure have a hard time with folks that don't agree with you.

He loses control as the knee hits

In my entire history of watching football, I don't ever recall a similar play with a player going out of bounds and seeming to maintain control of the ball til he gets to the ground being initially rulled incomplete. 

Never. 

Not once.

They always call it a catch and then review it to see if it really was.

After watching the replay, it's even less defensible. Flat out bad call. Tell yourself whatever you want. I watched it multiple times. The initial call was completely inconsistent with all the football officiating I've ever seen, and the replay far from vindicated the officials call.

Am I the only one not up in arms over todays officiating?

 

And LOL at folks actually thinking refs are trying to skew games one way or another.

They usually are bad especially if you watch more games in a week than ours, other teams get poo refs too, I don’t think today for us was horrible though. Granted I wasn’t giving the game 100% of my attention but I didn’t see much besides them missing a call of helmet contact when Sam slide, not the original hit but after he was down and the play was blown another falcon definitely gave him a knee to the head.

Agree with you about Sam and Robby. Those were both perfectly legit hits. Disagree about the TD catch. That call was garbage.

You have to complete the catch. Which means when you go to the ground, you must maintain possession.

 

He did not make a "Football" move after the catch.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
