They should read the room and just STFU right now or post something congratulatory to the Rams or something. Not really feeling some bullshit little attempt at humor video after watching a game that we seem very, very far away from actually having a chance to compete in.

Honestly I got no problem with them posting it since they are right, Super Bowl is over, on to the 2022 season. They can't post nothing and they sure can't post anything negative, they wouldn't have a job afterwards, so might as well do something kind of fun with one of the actual good players we have around.

I get it, but to be fair the social media team's job is to try and be positive. I can't blame them for that.

Our team ownership and coaching being dog sh-t isn't their fault.

They had to make up for missing that Higgins facemask on Ramsey on his long TD. 

That was no doubt penalty, but when you set the precedent that you are going to let them play all game and then all of a sudden decide they can't when it only benefits one team just leaves a horrible taste in my mouth.

And then Goodell's sorry ass getting up there with his "another ending fit for Hollywood" bullshit...  you don't say, do you?  poo is old.  And that statement coming from the same guy who saw the videos that made the Patriots "dynasty" and win over us in Superbowl 38 an absolute sham, and then instead of righting things, decided to destroy them and bury them so no one else would ever find out. fug Goodell, the officials, and the NFL.

Yeah, the Panthers Marketing Dept must have one of the most thankless jobs right now. 

How can you possibly put a positive spin on a Matt Rhule led team?  

However, congratulating the LA Rams on their SB win and a Keep Pounding shout-out to Panthers fans would have been a classy way to end the NFL season.

I have to say this :

That blatant facemask that was inexplicably missed by the Refs in the first quarter was what set the tone to keep this a competitive game all throughout.   Otherwise, this would've been an absolute clinic by the Rams with the Bengals playing catchup all game long.

For me, as a fan with no horse in the race, I had no issue with that missed call(there was another egregious one missed against the Rams later on but it all evens out) as I got a fun SB that wasn't a blowout for either team but instead went down to the wire.

For Bengals fans, this will hurt even worse than all the losing years they've had because of how DIFFICULT it is to even get to this point...let alone win the SB.

For Rams fans? Or more accurately, for Matthew Stafford fans : You got your wish. A SB win for Matt aka a huge middle finger at the Detroit Lions franchise for WASTING Matt's prime years there.

    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
    • Well, we got our answer on Army today.
