I was at home watching and I kept rewinding to see what the officials saw on Stew's run. They musta been lookin at more views than what they showed on TV, cause there was nothing shown on the replay that his elbow touched. I do believe the elbow constitutes down though, but Stews didnt from where I could see....

Did anyone notice on the TD pass just before halftime that the tight end was blocking downfield before the ball was caught? I looked at all the replays and I'm almost sure this happened either before the ball was caught or at the same time. Either way this should have been an illegal block downfield and should have overturned the score. Maybe I was just seeing things bc I haven't heard anyone on here mention it. It looked like Senn was being blocked right in front of the catch before the reception was made...if anyone has a replay please post it.

Update: found it on YouTube and if you pause it right when the catch is made the tight end looks to be engaging in a block. Kind of a bang-bang play so I guess I understand the no call.

I saw the PI play live and then of course on the big screen,,,, even while it was happening I was yelling PI on the Jag WR. I dont know, maybe on TV replays it was easier to see BUT it sure looked like to me the WR put his hand out, in the face of the DB and was just running down field that way pushing him before he let go to catch the ball. That was what I saw.

lmao at people complaining about the stew call. If that was not a tackle i dont know what one is. 57 of the 60 yards were a direct result of everyone on the field, in the stands, and watching at home knowing he was tackled and a few dumbass refs not blowing the whistle.

Stew's back landed on the back of a Jag's player, the only parts of Stew's body that touched the ground are a hand & both feet. If that is a tackle, then I dont know what one is either. The dumbass refs actually got it right by not blowin the whistle, then screwed teh pooch on the replay/review...

kid was knocked off his feet. by luck he landed on another player, by luck nobody knows for sure if his elbow touched. by luck all the players on the field stopped playing. by luck he caught them all off guard.

you guys may want to break out the waterproof digital calipers and uber fast exposure film to show me the blades of grass that slightly missed his elbow if you want. But if a guy gets knocked off his feet he is tackled in my book.

spare me the half dozen or so highlights where a guy rolls over and gets up and scores. I've seen 'em.

refs wrong or right at the time of the non-whistle is still up in the air. stew did the right thing by running. the booth missed it because there was no irrefutable evidence to overturn the call.

but as far as our fans being butt-hurt because we did not get that run is silly.

The kid was knocked off his feet. Sheer luck and poor officiating make it controversail but damnit guys, we all know he was stopped and in the end we all got the proper result. It may not have been correct per the letter of the law to some of you but it was proper.

The kid was knocked off his feet guys...c'mon already.

This would all be relevant if the call was ruled down on the field. There wasn't indisputable evidence either way to overturn the call. The call on the field should've stood either way. They have time and time again stressed INDISPUTABLE EVIDENCE on replays. Yesterday's was clearly not that.

If what you're saying about being knocked down was the rule, their would be a ton more controversial plays and it'd be damn near impossible to score by running near the goalline. The runner at the goalline is almost always laying on top of a pile of bodies. According to you he was "knocked down", so where did that occur and where do you spot the ball? Rules are specifically written out to avoid controversy. This is why we don't see vague rules like being "knocked down".

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
