The Ref move, and Offensive Holding calls...


PanthersAlv

Recommended Posts

I was thinking... In our first game last Thursday night, Gross got what, 4 holding calls against him?

They mentioned on the Monday Night Football broadcast that there are a lot of offensive holding calls already in one week of pre-season action, and that it'll be an interesting season.

Now thinking back a bit... It's gonna suck to actually see Peppers playing when Holding will be called now. Because I dunno how many times I've heard Panthers fans (and myself from time to time) wonder "Where's the holding call?!" when Peppers' Jersey was being pulled off of him while making his way toward the QB.

With this possible issue in mind, how will the Peppers', Allen's and Dumervil'sdo in the league this year? With the the holding being called... who's going to step up and get guys like these slowed down?

Funny thing, the Ravens held us to no end and it was never called. The refs will always have bias.

Yea I agree, we were playing in Baltimore. The refs also missed the push off by clayton and the pass interference that prevented gettis from being able to make any play on the ball.

I watched it like 5 times from both angles they showed that night and in slow motion, he didn't get pushed.

If you look again, Clayton was at full arm length from him and he must have realized he couldn't defend the pass so when he felt hands on him he just fell hoping for a call.

Its like in soccer when a guy's shin gets brushed and he flops on the ground.

They always call a lot of penalties in the preseason. It's preseason for the refs too, so they will jump on anything.

And I don't think Captain got pushed, not any more (actually much less) than what usually goes on in the endzone. He slipped.

    • Kon is a damn stud but it’s not any individual player’s team. All of the “big 3” are incredibly and equally important IMO. And LaMelo makes Kon way better (look at his shooting splits with LaMelo on the floor vs without. Also Moose and even Miles are important cogs. Honestly think we’re 1 piece away from being legit top contenders if the young guys continue to develop the next year or two. I trust this FO to be patient to find that piece within the next 2-3 years and not force anything. Plenty of time and even without adding anyone we have the pieces in place overall already to compete with any team. 
    • We lost 2 very close and winnable games against top teams in the league while missing 3 critical players despite 2 of our top 3 players shooting unusually terribly. Still split the 4 games that Moose and Miles were suspended, winning the most important one vs the Hawks. This ain’t yo mama’s Hornets man. Hopefully Coby can go soon but even if not Moose and Miles are huge additions for our starting lineup and bench rotations. Schedule is pretty tough after these next 4 but I think we’ll take care of business the next 4 to get to .500 then finish slightly above .500 after that to get a 7 or 8 seed. Keep it rolling boys. Also Kon is having an insanely historic rookie season as a shooter. Like truly can’t believe my eyes watching this kid level of historic. Man what a fuging home run of a draft pick and exactly what this team needed to take that next step forward. He’s gonna shatter the rookie 3 point and franchise 3 point records. Has a real chance to be the 2nd best 3 point shooter ever or dare I say even get to Curry’s level (as a pure shooter, Curry obviously has way more to his game that has made him a GOAT).
    • I hear you but yeah like you say, above average. His numbers were good. You’d think it would be a no brainer. Anyhow… I guess the new staff is also fine with him walking?    I hope if we sign him there isn’t some secret issue of his that led to him not being valued.
