Did Cam get flagged last year when he took his helmet off against Arizona? I can't remember. 

Yes he did. Rhule about had a stroke too over it.

Possible, but what he was thinking doesn't really matter.

What he did should not have been penalized.

True, but it doesn’t matter what he was thinking, it happened out of bounds therefore it should not have been a penalty. 

I just don't have any sympathy here. He was in the process of taking it off in the end zone as soon as he stood up in the end zone and it came off in the white; if he's a yard closer to the goal line this is all a moot point since it would have been entirely in the end zone. Gotta be more disciplined than that, and I'm confident he and the team will (not so sure about the NFL though). 

It's not lost on me that the kicker missed a field goal earlier and should have made the kick anyway. This isn't on DJ exclusively by any means, and I daresay that the penalty was even fairly minor. An NFL kicker should make at least one of those two.

He was up in one of the cameras faces and I don’t think it was the end zone stedi-cam. So I’m pretty sure he was out of bounds.

Who cares

Pineiro proved in OT that it didn’t matter where that extra point was placed, he wasn’t hitting it

Maybe.  You could make an argument that the dude was shaky after missing the one in regulation.  But if it was a normal XP he probably would have got it.

And for the “I want to win the NFC south with a below .500 record” crowd

This team still controls their own destiny. If they can win in Cincy they’ll throttle Atlanta at home and we’ll be right back in it

48 yarder still needs to be made. I truly couldn’t care less about the penalty. Yesterday that loss is on Pineiro. The dude had 2 tries with the second one being a chip shot

I don't blame him for the first miss.  If you are asking an in season add/backup K to hit near 50 yard XPs to win games.....that not really a kicker issue. 

The last one though a backup K or anyone that takes a NFL check has to make.

The defense giving up 30 (plus the pick 6) deserves plenty of blame as well. Scoring 34 in the NFL should be a win.

It’s all a moot point. The PJ interception is what lost us this game. Missed field goals wouldn’t have mattered and overtime wouldn’t have been needed. Not a bad throw, but an amazing play by the defense. What ifs are crazy but that pick 6 turned out to be the one that hurt imo

Bottom line is we identified a trash kicker who should have been left at the stadium after the game. I never want to hear his name again.
