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

Yeah, we put ourselves in positions to lose but you have to wonder if the refs have an interest to determine the outcomes. Organized crime, gambling addiction, or maybe the NFL wants the browns in the playoff hunt. 

maybe one is a Panther fan.  Trying to end this debacle.

That's how people bet on these reality shows and stuff at vegas for whatever dumb reason, 

vegas shouldn't be taking bets on pre-taped reality shows.

Live shows, like Dancing with the Stars (new season premiering next week on Disney+  ), are a different story of questionable legitimacy

Considering we live in a country where our politicians are openly bribed, I have even less confident our sports leagues are "fair" either.

That's definitely true.  I'm just saying if there was ever a way that it could be proven then the nfl would be in huge trouble legally. 

[Castavar]

The NFL let Denver headhunt Cam on national television and got off with nothing, you really think the NFL is going to give us any explanation?

Rooting for losses are we?

I hate when refs don't just own up to their mistakes. It would be so easy to say on the Burns roughing call "At our angle, it looked like he made forceable contact to the head or neck area. Of course on replay, we realized we made a mistake. Unfortunately we are human and we regret that mistake happened at such a critical juncture of the game." 

 

[panthers_fan_in_tx]

Eh, humans make mistakes.  We should've played better so this shyte isn't even an issue to begin with.  The refs didn't cause the offense to play poorly or the defense to get ran over the whole game.

or just a nice zinger/joke about a horrific call.

Its funny the Huddle complains about lack of complaining by the owner and HC and at the same complain that theres too much complaining by fans on a frickin message board.

Its hilarious.

Let me tell you I left several nasty messages on the phone to t u e league office after that head hunt job Denver did on  Cam. Do u think I ever heard back? Nope, f$#% em

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

We are talking about one of the most corrupt organizations in sports...

I'm sure the NFL ordered 20 massage therapists be sent to Watson's house after the game

Agreed.

 

Instead, they might as well have said to the fans "At our angle, he made contact with the head or neck area.  On replay, it's "inconclusive".    Yeah let's go with that.   So f*ck you all."

This will be unpopular, but other replay angles show Burnsy making contact with Jacoby's helmet. I can take that one. The fake spike was intentional grounding and you wont convince me otherwise. 10 second runoff leaves them with 3 seconds or so and they have a timeout waiting. Homeboys 58 yd FG looked like it would have been good from 70+. Call it what you want but the team Shi+ the bed for 3 quarters and never should have been in that position.

Hate seeing any team get outright screwed, division rivals included, but welcome to the club.

The league office especially has it out for small market teams because they know they can get away with it.
