The most frustrating part to me

What did we do to deserve all the poor officiating this year ? 

Some have suggested it is because of Cam calling out Ed Huckuli last year, as a liar .. 

Not just us.  I mean look at the last play of the Atl game.  

They need full time refs and adopt the Belichick challenge model

Here is how I see it. There is pretty much a penalty on every single play. The refs decide which teams get more leeway than others. Some teams get them called on em more frequently, and a select few teams (Seahawks, Pats, etc.) get by with a lot of penalties that otherwise would be called on 80% of the other teams. Refs are controlling games now more than ever. Between the constant addition of rules and judgement, it has become unwatchable. I have tried to watch a few other games besides the Panthers, and it is just boring as fug because every other play is a penalty where ref crews gather around for minutes before making a call. The NFL product is just all-around bad right now and it is past it's prime. College football, on the other hand, has been an absolute blast. I've gotten into it more this year than I ever have.

We're a bad team with a lot of flaws. Refs ain't got nothing to do with 1-5.

To be honest I was shocked we got the 2 Pass interference calls should have been 3,

The non offsetting penalty for the Saints got but we didn't in week 1 (And don't give me the crap about it's because our offsetting was Intentional Grounding, if the hit Cam took didn't effect the pass how did Cam make the pass to Dickson.)

Brees get a Roughing the Passer for a low hit, a short time later Cam gets hit the exact same way... Pick up the Flag on that one.

It's come to be expected every call that can be used against Carolina will be.

The hit on Cam was way worse too, the guy intentionally went low of him, our guy(think is was love?) Had a saints player on him dragging him down causing him to hit Brees low, completely unintentional. I hate saying the NFL is rigged or the refs are against certain teams but poo like that makes it really hard to think any other way.

While I do agree the Panthers are not playing as good as they did last year, the Refs are influencing the games.

I'm not sure which quarter it was but on the Saint's TD where 2 receivers ended up in the same area in the middle of the field I felt there should have been a Pick called as one receiver took out 2 defenders. I remember Olsen being called for that in a game last year.

Also the first Pass Interference that wasn't called the defender just stopped in front of Funchess, There's no way of knowing if he would have caught that touchdown but he wasn't given the chance.... That's why I couldn't believe we got the other 2.

To be honest, the more I watch the NFL the more I do think it's rigged, if not it sure is poorly ran! I mean you have the man in charge of Officiating who is a former Standup Comedian and never refereed a game in his life.
