It was definitely a penalty.  People saying he took his helmet off off the field of play are right technically he was in the back of the endzone but then he instantly came back on the field without his helmet on.

Coming onto the field without a helmet on to celebrate isn’t a penalty. Happens all the time.

I get it TECHNICALLY... but the league needs to understand that this is the NFL with grown ass men. And, plays like this do not happen very often... how can Moore not be very emotional, who wouldn't be? I think the NFL should make some of these instances judgement calls. If you are up by 21 points and do that, yes, I understand the call. But, this was a game winning catch in the final seconds of the game, let those guys enjoy the moment.

That being said, I do wish DJ had not jumped up on the wall... you ARE in Atlanta, not at home. Of course it's going to get the refs attention. I get it that the rules are the rules, but a call like that should not be able to affect the outcome of the game. Maybe penalize the call during the kickoff, not the XP. IDK, it's not a perfect world, whatever... just sucks how we lost today. One of most heartbreaking I can remember in a while. Panthers had 1st place IN THE BAG!

Technically, it wasn’t a penalty. It was an incorrect application of (h):

Sure.  Do you think he would have missed a regular xp though?  Also if he had hit the xp and it had been to tie instead of win do you think he would have been in the same mental state on the ot kick?   Hes a backup kicker that we signed off the streets.  Hes been solid, bad day to have a bad day may cost him his pro career. 

The OT kick was the same distance as an extra point

I thought he had been pretty solid up until today as well but the bed sure was pooed in today. They should at least be trying out kickers this week to look at anyone they can think of just in case he goes into a long-term funk.

If we're gonna argue about the refs, the Falcons have a legit complaint that it probably should've never went to OT with that pass interference missed call right before the end of the 4th...

Ummm, go back and watch the Damiere Byrd play where he took it to the house. The left guard for Atlanta moved early. Then, on the same play watch the obvious hold on Brian Burns and the hold downfield on Keith Taylor by Number 5 by Atlanta. MULTIPLE no calls on that one play. That TD should not have even happened based on the false start alone. I can do this all day, but, you're right, it should have never went to OT and we all really know why. By the way, who was penalized more in this game?

And if we made the XP, the refs would have called PI, I have no doubt about it.

If all my QB had to do was throw a 5 yard first down on 4th down to win the game, and a WR decided taunt a defender before the snap resulting in a 4th and 20, I am not going to blame the QB for not converting the 4th and 20 first down. I am going to blame the boneheaded WR who put his team in a situation to lose the game.

So, I am not blaming the kicker for losing the game.

You can thank DJ Moore for a boneheaded move that was all about game awareness and discipline. That is what lost the game. DJ Moore controlled the fate of his team and he decided to be selfish.

You bash on DJ any chance you can get. No one on here takes your opinion seriously
