Can something be done about this referee bias against the Panthers?

I will start by saying I think the NFL and the referees have been obviously bias against the Panthers since…Super Bowl 50.  Including that game this team has been disrespected by bad calls or horrible non calls consistently.  Is this because we are/were a bad team?  It feels extremely strange to me that against the Raiders the year we were big underdogs and suddenly we cover and get a lot of favorable calls.  If I’m just crazy tell me cuz it is so obvious but maybe I am just seeing ghosts.

The refs are at their worst when we actually matter. Once we're off the radar they usually do a decent job. The 49ers vrs Panthers playoff game nearly drove me insane with how bad the refs were. I swear Ron was screaming at the refs nonstop, and I lost my voice partly. Then things got really bad the following seasons when refs let opposing defenses hit Cam helmet to helmet for a while. Then it became national news and Cam started flailing and flopping to point out when he was getting his brains bashed in. THEN the refs knew the HAD to call it or it would be all over the national news and ESPN. The Panthers have a long and painful history with the refs, and with other teams outright cheating against us (see the Pats/Panthers SB). If we become good again one day the refs will 100% favor the more popular team we're playing. No doubt about it. The easiest way to do it is to call bs holding on the o-line on critical plays in the game. Nick knack holding where you can barely even see the hold for a split second is Panthers special.

Why am I not surprised it's you that starts this thread?

    • Poverty franchise behavior.  If you don't like him as a 3rd rounder then why'd you draft him there?  As others have said, they likely found out some new information and have buyer's remorse. Our FO didn't give DJ Johnson a hard time for being a bad pick.
    • Best I heard its a clause the bungals want to add. It prevents them form paying the full guaranteed amount if triggered. No one knows the details of the clause, but guesses are it relates to off-field stuff. Stewart is in the right here. Before they signed burrow, chase, and Higgins they were the cheapest team in the league bar none. Unlike tepper or jarrah Jones or any other NFL ownership, all Mike brown owns is the beagals. Every other owner has many other money making businesses, not bungals.  I still remember when Brenston Bunker was starting on WFNZ and he told the story about the beagals telling him to pick a used cup form a huge pile, LOLS! They been on hard knocks and I remember Marvin lewis telling the players not to take home Gatorade bottles........* but in that case, I believe some players were taking a back pack and filling it up with drinks. Still you make millions(around 200million) in net profit and Im sure coke gave the team those bottles, still... Its a 32 team billion business, someone has to the cheapest.....Panthers were around the next cheapest team before tepper bought them and he has POURED millions upon millions into the team. He bought a bubble that Richardson never would, so the team had to gather in a old building during the rain. He spent millions on coofus machines that he just gave away like the bubble. Tepper made that AC trailer a thing. I've trashed him about his concerts and taking away end zone seats from fans. But the guy will spend money any way in efforts to better the team, dang I just remembered the deal he gave Rhule- more than Andy Reid at the time.  I know results have not came, but Id 100% take Tepper over Mike brown as a owner.
    • There's no way they're shipping you some uniform you haven't seen lol.  I feel like they'd just refund you and ask if you wanted the new one when it launched. Probably just making the blues the primary, or a new helmet for a new alternate/variation.
