The NFL does owe the Panthers an explanation why the Brissett spike was not intentional grounding.

And why Burns got flagged for a RTP.

Would be nice if the NFL came out and said the refs did mess up that fake spike call, that it should have been a penalty an 10 sec runoff. 
 

And because of that, they’ll nullify the last second field goal that shouldn’t have happened and give the Panthers the win

 

 

But that’s not going to happen.  At best, we’ll get a cookie and a pat on the head

Surprised the NFL wants the team that traded for sexual predator to win. Boggles the mind.

Winning cures everything, even outrage.

I know some here joke about Vegas but with Gambling going on, there is a lot more truth now to that.

The NFL is no longer about who wins the game but who the refs ALLOW to win the game based on the spread.

Always remember - the NFL is under no obligation to call a fair game. They are a private organization that made up their own rules.

Ref claimed that Brissett “faked” the spike. That qualifies as “delaying”. Panthers did indeed get jobbed by the refs. NFL owes the Panthers a legit explanation and the crew should be fined. 

I agree 100%

That would have been game. Damn.

We could beat the Browns, just not the Zebras and the Browns.

I’ve veered dangerously close to the apathy line with the nfl and this may very well push me into it

 

 

There's a reason he has a bull with huge nuts in his office... making up for his lack thereof. 

[Cpt slay a ho]

They need to fix this garbage, these guys have to think more than they can play due to ridiculous game altering calls

then our team seems to get the short end of the stick consistently, tepper and rhule need to let the nfl know this is enough 

[PanthersGTI]

It is so frustrating to watch the team do exactly what they need to do to win and then get screwed by the refs TWICE in the last minute. Conversation would be very different if we came out with the W. The end of the 4th was well played by us but we got jobbed. 

[Khyber53]

It's not like they are going to go back and give us the win.

So, we move on.

We're going to lose a few games this year due to bad calls from the refs.

From what I saw yesterday, we're going to lose even more due to bad calls from the guys on our own payroll.

No longer? It's always been that way. Al Davis use to water the field and pay off refs back in the 70s and Jerry Jones had no problem in the 90s give refs a little cash.

I'm fairly sure it is illegal to allow bets without their being public knowledge that it is a fair competition though.  I think if it is public knowledge that it's already happened then it's different.  That's how people bet on these reality shows and stuff at vegas for whatever dumb reason, but I think even if it is a private company, if they put out the illusion that it is a fair competition then it is treated differently.  I could be wrong though.
