NFL officiating has absolutely gone to sh-t in the last ten years or so.

Instructions like the one I mentioned above are probably part of that, but for whatever reason, the quality has just become terrible.

Part of it is with replay getting better and better, you can see the mistakes. But the majority of it really is there is no consistency from one game to the next on what "insert penalty here" really is. DJ gets an unsportsmanlike for taking his helmet off outside the field of play. Countless other players take theirs off in the middle of the field to celebrate and crickets. What defines a catch? What is PI? Holding? WTF is considered a sack vs roughing the passer? You can't expect coaches, players, and fans not to constantly call bullshit when there is zero continuity on how a game is called.

I mean, is he wrong?  Sometimes stupid need to be called out.  Granted Butker still could have made a reeeeallly long attempt, but that 15 extra yards sure helped.  Would have been, what 56 yards in single digit temperatures?

Like it matters? If he had to kick a 56 yarder there would've been a flag thrown just in case he missed to scoot him up for the retry. Just how that game was shaping up.

    • Yeah. Probably will be close. I am not rooting for anyone don’t really care that much.   Same for the AFC game, don’t really care. Except it is Sean Payton, I always like it when he loses.  But it’s New England, I can’t root for them. It’s going to be 23 degrees at kickoff in Denver, wind will 12-15mph, dropping to 13 degrees by 7pm with snow predicted to start before halftime. 
    • Most people will agree with this in principle. But it's situational and also depends on the results you're getting. We were middle of the league in sacks given up. Had the 27th passing offense. And if a few instances that went our way turned out differently we very likely could have been staring at another 5 win season. For the highest salary cap percentage to the OL in the entire league. While we had basically nothing at linebacker and not much at all consistent pass rush to speak of as we were leaning on two rookies. And despite all that our defense which has been on a lopsided end of investment compared to the offense managed to go from league worst and giving up historic single season points in 2024 to middle of the league in 2025 which is quite impressive all things considered. So yes the investment in the OL versus the results certainly matters or at least to should to anyone that would like to continue to improve and also maybe finally win another playoff game.
    • Still think that if Carson Beck is there on Day 3 you have to take him. QB depth in drafts has been atrocious as of late but what he is good at translates very well to what the Panthers need a QB to do.
