Can't believe Carolina lost that from 17-7. They were in complete control.

I know it was a 50 yarder, but for kickers in this league AND at Mile High, that should be a gimme. Gano choked.

1-0 baby! Nice start to the season. Siemian will improve and the running game looks strong. :cool::cool::cool:

The snap was pretty poor as well. Icing actually works, who woulda thought.

I can't believe how many non-calls there were on holds of Miller. The officiating was terrible for both sides. Love seeing Cam upset though, it's the simple things in life, what a douchebag flossing on the sideline.

Loving what I've seen from the offense so far though, Janovich is a great pickup.

Broncos got very lucky on a few non-calls against Cam. Some were just blatant, can't believe they were missed, referees usually love to call anything involving contact on a QB.

You could throw a flag on every play. I saw a lot of holds on replay but the Panthers have some weapons. Benjamin is a beast. Olsen will have a great year and Setwart is still a beast. Having said that, I really hate Newton and love seeing him cut down to size.

The one thing I will never get is guys like Talib and Ward trying to tackle without using their arms and only using their shoulders. High probability you will miss.

Denver's D is going to eat a few teams alive this year, especially if Ray and Barrett continue to improve. I've never seen my team play so ferociously on D. f**ken love it!

Denver's D might want to stop targeting the head of the QB, they'll start getting called for that shit eventually.

Are you seriously complaining about non calls? Hope a few of these head hunting jack offs enjoy the fines and suspensions coming there way.

Cam got 1 call in amongst all of that and you want to talk about non calls?

Heartbreaking way to start the season but the pieces are all there to have another good year.

Doesn't help when he is bigger than the blokes hitting him

"Officiating was terrible for both sides", again Eddie, shooting off your mouth without reading an entire post.

Cam had one missed helmet call IMO. He plays like a running back, incidental contact will happen. The marshall hit was disgusting though and should get suspended. The stewart hit wasn't pretty either, but head hunting? There were two plays, one of which was called. The miller one got penalised as well from memory and that was completely accidental when Cam was in the pocket.

The panthers must have a perfect O-line, not a single holding call all game. Mike Remmers had a hold of Millers shirt pretty much every play. Remmers avoided at least 10 flags on his own, his 'highlight reel' was blatant penalty after blatant penalty.

They were just tackling Bronco defenders all game & yet not one call, it happened in the super bowl as well

Not to mention the horrible call on Harris on 4th down in the 4th quarter

Hahaha. If you put your hands in someone's face, don't be surprised when you get called for hands to the face.

I'm neutral here, but how was that a horrible call?

Benjamin had his hands in Chris Harris' face as well. Benjamin actually made contact first. I can see why it was given, but it was a bit of a bullshit call on a 4th and massive long with an inconsequential play.

Here is a pretty clear video of the incident...


It was a questionable call IMO, it wasn't horrible but it certainly wasn't clear cut and the game ends right there if it isn't called.
