Did the 2015 Carolina Panthers throw, piss away, sell out Super Bowl 50?

Yeah, there's no way anyone will ever convince me the game wasn't rigged. To start with there were too many bad / no calls.

Then on top of that there was the way the team acted leading into the game. The whole season the Panthers were on top of the world, celebration photos on the sidelines, the determination they had in games when things got close. ie. Cam's nod when he had go pull it out against the Giants. 

But the whole week heading into the Superbowl in every interview they seemed subdued, like there wasn't any excitement.... Everything just seemed off.

The collapse of our team directly stemmed from not being able to match the intensity the Broncos defense was bringing practically every down.

Cam was under constant pressure, and nobody else on our offense could step up, especially once Stewart went down. People like to make those exercise bike jokes and pretend like Stewart isn't much of a loss, but he had some seriously clutch runs to help catapult us to that Super Bowl. Him running like a madman all season long is a crucial factor that directly helped compensate for the loss of our #1 WR.

On one of Cam's interception, a broncos's player jumped offsides. No call PI by a broncos defender on Ginn on a crucial 3rd down. Talib not ejected for almost murdering Philly Brown. Peyton Manning's final game. The ref and replay guy were Broncos fan. Nah, the game wasn't rigged.

This.

...and Tolbert's fumble, Remmers being man handled...

mostly  Shula being out of his depth.

Shula ended up right where he belongs...pretending to be OC while someone else does it.  He's got years of experience pretending to be OC.

Id put most of the blame on our inability to execute and making too many turnovers. If you want to over simplify, Mike Remmers got taken to the woodshed, the two most critical plays of the game were Von's strip sacks that directly led to Broncos TDs and destroyed our momentum and confidence. 

And now we have Matt Kalil as a OT lol. I wouldnt be surprised if he performed even worse in a similar situation.

Cam's been really unfortunate to have such shitty OTs , unreliable WRs, and piss poor coaching for most of his career. 

Turnovers were the problem, we had at least 4 (2 cam strip sacks, 1 tolbert fumble, 1 cam int, couldve been more idr) . The reffing was also bad but dont be that guy saying 100% of the blame was on them, if we played well enough we couldve won the game, but we didnt. We played our worst game of that season by far in the Super Bowl ..

I feel like the entire game they all looked uptight and nervous somehow. They were relaxed and having fun almost the entire season, but I didnt see an ounce of that on SB night. Immediately thought there was a problem as soon as the game started, it just felt off. Everyone looked too serious.
