I believe there are games in which the refs are told to make/not make calls in favor of certain teams in certain games.

 

Whatever money they stand to make or not make by rigging games against the Panthers is dwarfed by what would happen when that came out. NFL's credibility would be ruined and they would face innumerable lawsuits.

 

Refs make terrible calls and maybe sometimes they do it on purpose based on their own motivations. They're humans, and if I were a ref I sure as hell would call a biased game. But to think they're acting on league orders is silly.

I am sitting here watching this game and feel like I am watching two competely different sets of analyses. Cam Newton, touches the ball, these guys go into their Analysis and critiquing mode with their endless critiquing of his throws, footwork, and body language. When Colin touches the ball...NOTHING.

 

I see those in the media are still treating Cam as if he has to prove that he belongs in the NFL. Hmmmm

It will never get leaked because the calls help the teams the NFL likes in which makes them more money.

      Night before the game

      I don't know; I think it's close for the first half and if it gets ugly it'll be in the second half.

      The thing is, I feel like last Sunday validated what I have been saying about Bryce.  And this is why I'm somewhat optimistic. He isn't a good QB, let me make that clear before the brigade storms into this thread, but the biggest difference between Bryce before last week and Bryce in the second half of last season was his lack of confidence and willingness to make plays downfield.  Last week was the first time this season he's had that "F It" mentality, the same he had when he came back last year when he just looked and played care-free (in a good way; he had a positive energy).  We need him to keep that energy the rest of the season because if he does, we can win games. It ain't always about being good.  Hell Jameis Winston isn't good (better than Bryce, but still), but he plays with such a confidence that his teams always have a chance.   If Bryce is down to be as aggressive as he was last week, I think the opportunities will be there against a weak and injured 49ers defense.

      I don't have a great feeling about this game, but after last night I have a real good feeling about our chances to win the division. I think we might actually have a fair amount of wiggle room if Baker is out for an extended period of time, especially if he misses one or both of the games against us. 9-8 could very well win the NFC South this year. Hell, depending on how long Mayfield is out I wouldn't be shocked to see 8-9 win it.
