So lime usual the other team makes adjustments. Will we for once ?

Ah here we go Panthers football.

What a wuss of a third down play call lol

Lol here comes the refs. But why don't we have CMC out for 3rd down seriously

No injuries for once please lol

Wouldn't be Panthers football if we didn't keep the other team in the game. Blowouts are against franchise policy.

Here we go. It begins

Lol refs enter the game

We got lucky. We have to stop trying to keep teams in the game. Shouldn't have thrown that.

Seen enough screens

True. But these type of plays hardly ever work for us. When you need two yards and have CMC and Cam idk.

I hate plays like that. Haven't been good since 89.

Gah timeout usage

I know that any good run for us always gets called back.

Nvm

Wide open receiver what the hell are we doing

Weak flag. Wasn't taunting the other team or anything.

That's why he should have been signed 4 weeks ago.

Haha mother of God that is amazing

Most of the money is advertising. Way more than jersey sales. Also super bowl has sliding scale on ads if ratings drops during the game they pay less. Probably something like that for other games too. Storylines matter. There is always one in big games. I do envy the ignorance is bliss style for watching NFL I miss those days.

Explain why the league makes rules more muddied and muddied each year and also don't get rid of "bad" refs? Come on dude, there is too much money in storylines that equal ratings (and the league makes most money off profit sharing so it doesn't matter if you win or lose really). The "bad" refs that continue to make questionable calls are there for a reason. And yeah at some time most fan bases probably have been shafted to push a storyline. There will always be legit bad calls but there is a lot of clear blatant ones that happen as well. You can't sit here and tell me when Cam was hit with helmet to helmets all super bowl with no calls they didn't want Peyton to go out on top. STORYLINEs sell ratings.

Pretty much. Carson Palmer was pretty good and if not for some bad injuries would have been even better but generally it's been a bad time with them.

THE Matt Barkley????? lol Meanwhile Cam is a FA. You can't tell me we're better off with Barkley coming in here than Cam regardless of Cam's limitations lol....

I mean if you didn't know this after the Broncos Super Bowl lol. I remember making a big thread showing the like 20 missed calls and so many people were saying "no way, we would know". Things have turned pretty damn fast. You can trace the rigged games back to when Goodell took over. I'm sure the owners have an idea and probably the players but money talks and say what you want but Goodell has made them heaps of money. Football is such a game of momentum it just takes ONE ref on a crew to screw it up for a team.

Of course we'll win. We need more wins to get a lower draft pick because that's Panther's football lol.
