The 4th and 3

[The Lobo]

Does anyone have another angle of the 4th and 3 in the first? The camera angle they showed were both poor shots of the run. However, on the camera from behind it clearly looked like we got the first down. The tv instant replays were garbage and I hope that’s not what the officials looked at.

Yep, this was a classic "whatever was called on the field, will stand" scenario.  That said, I can't believe there wasn't a shot on the sideline that wouldn't give a better perspective... it was clear he had crossed the first down from the overhead view

I thought you were referring to Seattle’s scoring play. That will be an infamous 4th down for the Panthers

Whats crazy is that on national TV it was clearly shown that Cam was over the yellow line in replay and NOT down and still called short..

I was listening on the radio for this but they said the ref came in on the 3 and spotted there but then moved it to the 4. Talk about bullshit.

[Little Goody Two Shoes]

Never understand why teams insist on hiking it 5 yds back on these types of plays.

Insane. They probably didn’t have a sideline replay for the refs sonwhat we saw they saw. But Seattle’s WRs catches it near the goaline and sure as poo there is a sideline camera right on it. Cam got that first down.

it was 100% a first down

I just don’t understand how there wasn’t a better angle. The angle from behind the LOS clearly showed a first.

didn't they overturn the Reid INT vs philly despite not having a good camera angle?

Refs need to be consistent with their calls. If Cam was short they should have called the Seattle RB short as well.

They did. I will never understand the call today.

Agreed. Cam was clearly over the line, I hope something is said to the league about it.

it's so tiring seeing this poo getting called unevenly.

they call the facemask for Lockett but not Cam or Luke.

they catch DJ Moore stepping out of bounds and move the ball back (without a challenge) but miss the Lions player last week step out of bounds on 3rd down on a TD drive.

no need to mention all the missed holding calls today.

even though i still think we could have lost to PIT, the officiating in the game was absolutely fuging ridiculous but received absolutely ZERO attention, partially because it was a blowout but also because it's PIT.

 

this has been going on for years. we lost AT LEAST 3 games Cam's rookie year due to absurd officiating.
