We should've been up 10-0 at half

 

So that 10+ play drive with 5 minutes to go in the half just didn't happen? There wasn't even a penalty on that drive

12 men in the huddle? The Boldin head butt? Two more uncalled penalties that allowed for the Niners to score.

I'll give you the first roughing call that led to the first field goal. That was an iffy call.

The int was not holding. Thats called jamming a receiver out of his route. Keuchly was doing the same thing to Gronk the whole Patriots game. The head butt that led to the second field goal I don't think should have been called, but you guys were initiating most of the after play stuff.

The play on anquan boldin head butting was not much. Definitely less than what Mitchell ( or Mikell?) was penalized for. Either way, there was no penalty so it didn't lead to anything.

Pretty much, you can blame them for 6, maybe even 9 points, but the game was in the 49ers favor most of the game.

The difference in the game, in my opinion, was the two drives inside the 5 for you guys that ended with a total of 3 points. That lost it more than anything else

Olsen wasn't within 5 yards.....he was downfield with the contact. Not a jam.

The Boldin headbutt was more of one than the one Captain was penalized for....watch again. Difference is Mitchell didn't start acting after it. Should of been flagged.....that was on the TD drive into the redzone. Same drive they didn't call 12 men when they were at the 1. That should of pushed them back for a 3rd down play.

Panthers outplayed San Fran in the first half. Every non SF/ Car fan watching says that. Refs however had you winning when you should of been trailing at the half. That was huge. Refs helped them with all 13 first half points. Score could of been drastically different at half with different refs......bc Carolina was clearly better early.

SF outplayed Car in the 2nd half. That is true. First half was shady.

And SF was initiating just as much as Carolina. As Fox said, Boldin for example has been doing it all year and they were sick and tired of watching him never get flagged for it. Aikman ain't scared to call it like it is....

Boldin got away with a headbutt on that drive and SF got away with too many men in the huddle.

You guys beat us in the second half straight up. Your coaches made adjustments and Rivera wanted ours to calm down when he shouldn't have.

However the flags in the first half really played a huge role in the game.

I can live with bad calls as long as the refs are consistent but it wasn't even close today. The 2 no calls for head butting people, and the no call for having 12 men in the huddle just blow my mind. It's not like either were judgment calls

[Semaj]

And from SI.  At least we werent the only ones to see the horrible officiating in the first half that castrated our team and caused a cautious and timid team to come out in the second half and then proceed to get their @sses handed to them.

This!

 

Goodell really needs to take a hard look at this.

 

that jerk is too busy at considering adding playoff teams

whats up with the monkey king poo

[Snake]

refs should be fined for poor performances then terminated if it happens again,,,

Then how could the NFL fix games? Do you really believe the refs were that crappy on just one side of the ball? Hell no they caught us with everything.

it's a movie to complex for you to understand, so forget it

[CPcavedweller]

Can we get a give of the way the refs looked at our guys when we pointed that a 12th guy was on the field. I also remember seeing a clip of one ref pointing it out to another ref! The Golden Calf of Bristol should become a ref. he is impartial.

So you're guy rocking Cam's head back with his helmet isn't a penalty?

Okkkkkkkkkkk...

Why? Because he's Cam and he deserves it? You don't think that flag would have been thrown if that had been Peyton Manning taking the same blow to the head?

Wow, you must not know the rules very well or are a huge homer. We got lucky on that call, that shouldn't have been a penalty dude, the defender woulda had a clean hit on cam, but when cam tried to escape, he turned right into it. Dont get mse wrong... I'm glad we got it, but we shouldn't have.

[PantherDynasty]

Why does nobody mention that Vernon Davis shoved the defender to the ground before that TD in the first half? That was such an obvious no call. This is something I've never said before, but the fix was in from the start. At halftime, you looked at the scoreboard and the score made no sense after watching the play on the field. Officiating was so bad the Niners fans around me were literally laughing.
