Here is hoping that the game does not come down to officiating. The Panthers were up 20-17 in the 4th Quarter with 1:12 left in the game. Cowboys going for a game-tying field goal. Ken Lucas it, but is blocks, but Julius Peppers was called for roughing the kicker. The Cowboys score a TD, and go up 24-20. The Panthers were unable to make the comeback win.

that was the worst call in the history of calls. then how about the saturday night game in 2007, when the panthers were on that final drive trying to tie it up, and the dallas defender was riding piggyback on drew carter for about twenty yards and no pass interference was called.

absolute garbage. this team needs to absolutely flatten dallas so no amount of BS calls can help them.

Thanks, I had forgotten all about that, all I could remember specifically was the steve smith ejection. I knew there were other bad calls in our history with the cowboys but couldn't remember them.

They even reviewed the play and it was upheld.

I was in the stands for that game. When Smith got ejected, no one had any idea what the hell had just happened, I didn't know until I watched the highlights later that night. And the roughing the kicker call, wow, words couldn't explain how pissed off the fans were and how ridiculously obnoxious the Cowboys fans were.

here it is. both commentators say its pass interference. Bryant Gumble brushes it off "ah they missed one" screw job #2. at about 48 seconds.

I don't care what anyone says....Matt Moore looked great. No way he deserves to be anywhere lower than #2 on a depth chart.

      That and so many top tier WRs have had major injuries.

      uh..... no. I'm sure people will take this as me just pushing to draft T-Mac still, but it's not, we BADLY need a true outside #1 WR, whether it's my guy or someone else, it's a HUGE need, especially since we're not going to have an elite QB next year, we need to get the pass catching options to improve our QB play, no matter who that ends up being. I love the potential of XL and even Coker, but if you would take your Panthers fandom goggles off for a moment and look at it objectively, our two leading returning WRs for next season hav 284 and 263 yards through 10 games.   I don't care how good or bad the QB play is, that's a bottom 5 WR room in the NFL, if even that high.  Off the top of my head, the Browns, Patriots, and Raiders are the only teams with a worse WR situation going into next year as of right now (there could be others, but I haven't actually thought about it). XL's ceiling is likely as a lower end #1, but that would make him an elite #2.  I've likened him more as the Waddle/Higgins than the Tyreek/Chase (in terms of role as the Robin to Batman, not style of play) Coker, while we all think he can turn into something, is nowhere near good enough to go into next season as our #2 to XL's #1.  Realistically XL should be the #2 with Coker being the #3, and that still could be asking a lot from Coker at this point in his career. In today's NFL, you're not going to win many games with below average QB play and XL/Coker as your top two WRs, it's nowhere near good enough to be competitive over the course of a season.
