replacement refs giving more of a home field advantage...

Replacement refs seemed affected by crowd -- calling 26 more penalties against the road teams (104) than the home teams (78) thus far.

@lunger24 Last year there was a 66-penalty difference for the entire season between home and road, an average of almost 4 per week.

the missing PI calls that people were saying were effected by the crowd...not so much of an imagined thing as you'd think.

the good thing is, unless the NFL really cracks down and the replacement refs overcorrect, we should be good the next couple weeks.

@fancred @Brad_Gagnon

On opening day in 2010 there was a seven penalty difference between home and road.

@toddarcher @jasonjwilde

You have to go back to 2005 to find the last time 4 road teams were assessed 10+ penalties on the opening weekend.

I just wish the stingy, rich, pathetic owners would pay the refs what they deserve. Instead they make themselves look like the cheap jokes they really are.

I mean come on, they pay these players ungodly amounts of money but when it comes to good officiating they don't won't to pay them squat for their skills.

Instead of the players and owners striking (or locking out), it would be nice if the fans did the same for one year. I think the players and owners would get a reality check.

Don't pay them squat?

Seriously?

Are you high?

NFL refs make between 25k and 75k per year and have retirement benefits in the form of a very generous pension for a PART TIME JOB. They have better retirement benefits than full time NFL employees for the love of Christ. Top that off with the fact that the last NFL offer would raise the ceiling for refs PART TIME salary to as high as 200k and the refs rejected it.

The party that's fuging up is NOT the NFL. Not this time.

I have a feeling that the Refs will not help us this Sunday. With all this buzz about home field favoritism. They'll call less penalties our way now. I just have a feeling.

It does suck, this coming out right before our first home game. The fact that it's against a division rival and just following a loss to another division rival is just icing on the cake.

    • I must apologize, my sarcasm at times doesnt translate well in text form lol. At this point I would welcome us signing him, Trey Lance, trading for Jameis Winston, asking about Deshaun Watson and playing phone tag with Tom Brady before I ever fully entertain a season of Bryce Young being the defacto Starting Quarterback of the Panthers.
    • Petey Pablo raises up for the Carolina Panthers pregame at the Roaring Riot tailgate. videoplayback (30).mp4
    • We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.
