Mine too. Never liked them.
LOL! My FB feed is littered with Seacawks fans, and I didn't see anything on that. Had to Google it.
I worked through all but the last 10 minutes of the 4th. I had to check out highlights on the NFL app on PS4 to see the good stuff. Man, watching Miller get at Cam made me smile.

The Broncos only had 194 total net yards and 1/14 on 3rd down. How the hell do you find a way to win with those numbers. It was definitely a great defensive showing with a couple big mistakes by the Panthers along the way.

Rigged game. In Q2 4th and 1, broncos go for it, don't get the first down. Flag on play, oh what's this, penalty on them so they can get second chance and land a field goal. This is the kinda shit that makes no sense to me in pro football. You know if they had gotten the 1st, the penalty would have been on panthers, or just declined for w/e reason.

This play stood out to me as something people should be up in arms about just as much as "what's a catch?". Football is full of rules that don't seem to make sense, and if they could just clean that up the game itself would be a lot better. Can someone explain why a team should get a 5th down when they are the ones penalized*? It's like playing basketball, fouling your teammate, and being rewarded free throws.
*Does anyone with football experience know if coaches tell linemen to purposefully take one of these calls if the play doesn't look like it'll unfold their way?

There are lots of rules that allow the refs to determine the outcome of a game.
Trust me when I say it's best just to just drink beer, eat wings, and forget about it. For the record, I watched about 10 minutes of the game and that play reminded me why pro sports have become a bad joke.

Stadium prices are always exorbitant no matter how big the event.
Last time I was at Petco Park I think waters were $5 and garlic fries were $8.
I doubt these people spending thousands on tickets minded paying an extra $30 for food/beer.

Brady isn't a mobile quarterback, never has been. He stays in the pocket till it collapses and usually goes down with it. That being said, he as more mobile then ever this year, and moved pretty damn fast. Funny part is that everyone says he is losing his touch, but then can't give me a better quarterback.

True. I don't even bother buying beer it's always 'mid strength' which I believe is slightly higher than light beer. I seriously cannot feel a goddamn thing after 4 of these things might as well drink water!

What are you talking about?
He got the first down which is why the penalty was accepted. If he didn't get the first, Carolina declines the penalty and gets the ball.

Well...I was wrong. I though that Carolina's D would show up in force and in end, it was Denver that got the job done. Like any other defensive showdown, it wasn't a very exciting game...but it was interesting to watch Cam fold. Manning looks old, stiff. He had a decent game at best, it was good to see he didn't get MVP. On the note of Manning, I really hope he rides off into the sunset on this win like Elway did. It is the best outcome for him. He's a great player with an amazing career, it's sad to see him go.
I think the most disappointing thing was Newton's complete childish stunt session in the post game interview, what a scrub move that was. Manning lost SB 48 and then, like a true professional, took the stage and addressed the press with class. Something Newton lacks, apparently.

While I freely admit I missed the end of the 2nd, I'm gonna assume they were 4th and 1 in Panthers territory. If you are deep enough in opponent territory and in a 4th and short situation you go for it. I don't know what the penalty was, but it was probably either encroachment or false start on the offense which will result in a 5 yard penalty and the repeat of the current down. At 4th and 5 you would typically never go for it and just take the 3 points. 4th and 1 or 2 is always a gamble but statistically you have a better chance at it.
The O line of the Broncos wouldn't have had any idea if the play was going to pan out poorly if the call was what I stated above. When one guy jumps you all jump. Peyton's cadence before the ball is snapped is very hard to read. In a 4th and short he is trying to get the opponents to jump off sides, but sometimes it goes the other way and your guys get a bit jumpy.
As far a purposely taking a penalty, most that don't involve the line of scrimmage will result in a penalty but not a repeat of down.l with the exception of an ineligible receiver call. Typically holding and PI on the defense will result in a yardage penalty with an automatic first down for the offense.

This^. If you expect professionalism from a guy who does more show boating then Ric Flair, you're gonna be waiting awhile.

It was an offensive holding call. Runner gained 2 yards on a 4th and 1.
Penalty was accepted and Broncos kicked a field goal on 4th and 11.

Nope, fried em up, served with sriracha mayo. They weren't bad, they weren't really good either. They were a lot of work, only did them for the novelty. The party was to bring food from either Carolina or Denver.
