That lucky SOB has fallen backasswards into another QB cheat code. Not saying Sellers is Cam but in terms of raw physical talent he's certainly elite.

Shula is a great hire if you are the Gamecocks.   College is college.   Shula will use him like a college team should

The whole "surviving the ground" thing need to just go away. If you catch the ball and possess it inbounds it shouldn't matter if you lose control of it going to the ground out of bounds. 

Right. If you catch the ball control it and get two (!) feet down - play over and touchdown. What happens after is irrelevant.

It shouldn’t have constituted an overturn of the call on the field.

I get that the whole catch/no catch thing is always going to involve some gray area stuff but action occurring out of bounds just shouldn't matter. The receiver caught the ball, possessed it in the end zone then the DB knocked it lose as he's going to the ground after he's already out of bounds. That action shouldn't impact anything. It's happening out of bounds.

Yeah, identical call to last night.  Which is the rule.   They shouldn’t be TDs given the rule is the rule. 

Announcers in both games doing all they can to get the fans mad though…as both games the announcers seem to basically disregard and play dumb about the catch rules.

What about a catch in the middle of the field? You do you want them to maintain control as they fall? 

Thats the catch? Having different rules for the endzone vs everywhere else. 
 

*I’m not arguing one way vs the other.  But a catch has to be universal rules IMO regardless of location of play

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
