Some facts regarding the decision to throw the ball on that infamous 3rd-and-2

do you know how to allowances for the difference between the quality of a play called by the coach and the quality of the players' execution of it?

The very first play of the game was a red zone interception caused by timing issues.

Just took the lead, driving, lets chuck it on 3rd and 2. What could happen?

Well I actually don't really like the Newton up the middle runs. If they are going to do that I wish they would delay it more and wait for the middle to open up like they were actually going to pass the ball then have him take off.

I like them to as long as nothing happens to Cam, but IMO its only a matter of time. If we lose him for the rest of the season you would change your mind. That one he had this game I was holding my breath with that pileup that was happening. This not some RB that we can just replace, we are talking about our whole Offense here. DA is not Newton.

I just noticed there's a lot of 'ifs' in your 'facts', Last time I checked, ifs don't belong with facts.

lets test your theory

"Fact: if you throw a ball it will fall to the ground due to gravity."

theres an if that belongs with a fact. i'm not sure if you're drunk or simply desparate to squeeze in some golden axiom but you may want to edit that and come up with something better. you're going to have serious problems if you're basing your logic off such notions.

Fact We had extra point blocked. An extra point!

Fact We called timeout at end of first half which gave NO time to kick a field goal.

Fact If the offense substitutes, the refs must hold up play in order to let the defense substitute. We would not have penalized for too many players on the field.

Fact We gave away 4 points. We lost by 3 points

what does this have to do with the particular play that this thread is blatantly about

If, I didn't throw a ball. So your point is moot. :thumbsup:

i'm not sure if you're serious and i like you as a poster so i don't want to dig into all the many and transparant reasons that your logic is fatally flawed but suffice it to say that if fox007 pies your opinion you should probably retreat to a monastery and rethink your life.

But but but that's working and I thought winning teams stuck with what worked! We've yet to NOT get into the endzone when we're that close by running Cam.

You right it is working

But we dont have to rely on Cam for EVERYTHING. That's the problem. Cam got the throwing TD's and he got all the running TD's as well

No excuse why our RB's have on 1 rushing TD between them, with the first one coming in game 5

      Canales is holding us back

      I've seen enough tape review to see that we run crossers...we have dudes in the middle of the field. I have to think that this is a harder area for someone of Bryce's stature to hit. You have to see directly over the center of the line and is probably where the most interceptions happen (he has thrown a LOT of his picks by not seeing a dude in the middle of the field).

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      I’m pretty sure we did end up getting the first in that drive, but I don’t remember. It was obviously a catch the ball didn’t move

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      While I don't think NFL games are fully rigged, it's certainly closer to a scripted outcome than we all think. The NFL by their own admission in court is not a fair and balanced sporting event. It is a managed entertainment product, a "spectacle" as they've put it, that now has sports betting as a huge financial pillar of their business model. It's ridicuously naive to still think the NFL isn't using referees to manage the games towards certain outcomes, using "replays in the booth" and overturning calls, choosing to overlook penalties at critical moments and calling questionable and sometimes phantom game changing penalties at other critical junctures of games. The NFL has always done this going as far back as the '60s, and they were investigated by the FBI in the '70s which found a large number of ownership groups had ties to the mob. So when the overwhelming majority of the moneyline bets were on the Panthers vs the Saints last week, and suddenly we see some strange and ticky tack penalties we've rarely seen called on the Panthers all year, I just know there's more going on behind the scenes. And suddenly next week, the Panthers will probably be nudged to a win, to keep the NFC South race interesting, as I see the Bucs are the favorite as of now and most moneyline bets will trend towards the Bucs until during the game when the Bucs are leading heading into the 4th quarter, and the Panthers are nudged to a win. At least, that's what the NFL and Vegas probably want to happen.
