The Super Bowl was rigged...

But on the other side of the fence.....that was the most pathetic offensive gameplan I've ever seen from a team. The Panthers ran on almost every first down. Cam was holding the ball way too long and they weren't giving their tackles any extra help.

IMO...it didn't matter who won last night.....because that was one of the worst SBs that I've ever witnessed.

Don't lose the Chicago game on a fluke play by Cutler, we win the division.

They eeked by us, and limped into the playoffs.

Look, it's over, the man made his call and that's it. The odd part is that they'll make the different call on some other replay next year. Like missed PIs, the NFL sees what it wants to see, when it wants to see it. Hell a line just missed Talib's second offsides, and that's the one things he's there to see. I guess that was, just letting them play.

It's all good, I'm sure we'll learn from all of this for next year and be right where the Donks are this year.

Funny thing is if we were to fast forward and have the same situation as last night Talib would be ejected from the game next year if Goodell gets his way. Two personal fouls within a few minutes.

I really fail to see how anyone can say that refs blew calls in this game. Aside from the taunting call on Talib when he was jawing, there wasnt a single call or flag that I disagreed with.

What game were you ****ing watching?

There were a bunch of non-calls on Denver that were complete bullshit. Defensive holding. The hands to the face on the defensive TD.

This has absolutely nothing to do with what I posted.

There is and has been a serious problem with officiating.

In that case, the penalties won't be called next year.

The entire sport is rigged and there is plenty to support it. What a joke, it's the WWF.

After watching the replay a few times, the refs got it right on Cotchery's drop.

However, that was a poorly officiated game for both sides. I think Denver had more go their way though.

In the end, it really didn't matter. Carolina was afforded plenty of opportunities to win the game, but they were incapable of taking advantage.

I'll agree with PGM here somewhat. This game was unlike any "football game" I've ever seen before. From allowing Beyonce and her militant bitches to stomp all over the field with heels to the absence of proper replays and crazy long/frequent commercial breaks I thought it was more of a promotional video than a football game.

I think they will eject in abundance next year. They're gonna have to address actions from players that commit personal fouls. It's already out of the bag and if the commissioner suggests to the committee it usually comes to fruition.
What I do see from that rule change is increasing the count of active players for each game as I wished they would have done long ago.

We'll see. Refs don't like to eject players, so my bet is that personal foul penalties will decline. Ejections will also go up, but they'll be few in number and limited to players on non-marquee teams in low-impact games.

I've already posted the link to the replay that shows you have no idea what you are talking about.

I thought that was a tick-tacky call but the refs had to keep control of the game. Talib has a history of blatant unsportsmanlike conduct and the refs are going to flag him.

IIRC, he pushed the Panthers player off the field and then went face mask to face mask yelling in his face for a good 5+ seconds. Not sure I would call that "ticky-tack."
