Wild Card Weekend Gamethread

[Al Zarilla]

There should be a late hit in the end zone penalty like the late hit out of bounds penalty.

 

[Norm Siebern]

That was a cheap ass late hit by the Atlanta corner. Fuck him. #34.

 

[McBride11]

Did they say Goff's dad, a major league backup catcher, allowed 6 passed balls in ONE game?? Haha

 

[FenwayFrenzy]

His dad was Josh Bard?

 

[Al Zarilla]

His dad was Josh Bard?

Allowed, not threw.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Dan Quinn’s brother just sat down next to my Dad at a bar in Key West.

 

[Oil Can Dan]

Why did they wind the clock? Receiver went out of bounds on his own accord with 2:05 on the clock? Huh?

 

[Norm Siebern]

I like Richard Sherman

Yep, looks like it was in '96. He played in one game and had 6 passed balls.
Perhaps not surprisingly that was the last game he played in the majors.

Edit:
Here is the box score, Mike Hampton was pitching so it wasn't like it was a knucklballer.

Edit2: i guess my edit wasn't needed.

 

[BusRaker]

It wasn't even a knuckleballer on the mound ... Mike Hampton was the starter

[Ed Hillel]

That could have been devastating for Ryan. Instead, it was for the drive.

 

[Al Zarilla]

At least two guys slip on the grass in LA. That’s inexcusable turf management.

 

[FenwayFrenzy]

Ryan bleeding behind his ear... looks minor.

He also hit the side of his head on the turf during that last sack.

 

[Ale Xander]

At least two guys slip on the grass in LA. That’s inexcusable turf management.

All LA outdoor stadia are garbage

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Falcons taking a timeout??

 

[Al Zarilla]

All LA outdoor stadia are garbage

Dodger Stadium? I don’t know.

 

[Deathofthebambino]

Get up there and spike the fucking ball. DON'T RUN A PLAY

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Goff also hit a homerrun off Uggy Urbina in that game.

 

[Deathofthebambino]

That's a catch. Nothing there to overturn that.

 

[Ale Xander]

Dodger Stadium? I don’t know.

Dodger
Rose Bowl (has like 4 exits for 93k people)
Coliseum
Drake

All trash

 

[E5 Yaz]

Jon Gruden to Raiders is official

 

[Brand Name]

Did they say Goff's dad, a major league backup catcher, allowed 6 passed balls in ONE game?? Haha

Two of them in the same AB of Ugueth Urbina. I had to laugh. Tied him with Rube Vickers (a pitcher!) in 1902 and Geno Petralli in 1987 for most in a single game, modern era (all-time, it's 12, Alex Gardner, 1884).

Wow, these games both started as dead duds and are going off like fireworks. Awesome. That catch should stand since he had control, right?

 

[luckiestman]

He caught the fucking ball, let these dudes play some fucking ball without sucking all the excitement out of it.

 

[brandonchristensen]

What a catch.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

whoever took that first Falcons timeout completely fucked up

 

[Deathofthebambino]

Jon Gruden to Raiders is official

Wasn't it official like two days ago, when he got 100 million dollars?

 

[CFB_Rules]

Is there a runoff?

 

[Deathofthebambino]

Goff has to know not to throw that pass, and Gurley has to know to not catch it.

 

[johnmd20]

What a dumb pass there.

 

[Brand Name]

How do you not throw to the sidelines/get OOB there? Oh my god.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

you have time for one quick play from the 2 here

 

[McBride11]

Goff also hit a homerrun off Uggy Urbina in that game.

Guess that explains some of his decisions after his retirement

 

[luckiestman]

Great job nfl

 

[Ed Hillel]

NFL!

 

[brandonchristensen]

Football sucks.

 

[McBride11]

Did the Steelers coaching staff take over for the last 30 seconds here?

And also, so because the snap went off but was nullified by a penalty they can continue to review it in NYC?? That seems a loophole especially when the penalty was on the D

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Why doesn’t anybody spike the ball anymore. So dumb, potential 4 point mistake by the Rams and they weren’t even ready with a good play to run anyways.

 

[snowmanny]

Why spike it instead of throwing in the end zone?

 

[Morgan's Magic Snowplow]

Not a catch

 

[jmm57]

There's been more Eddie Guns/reviews than football this half. Brutal to watch.

 

[Deathofthebambino]

Isn't there a runoff now because of the official review?

 

[Ed Hillel]

Incomplete by rule.

 

[soxhop411]

Al is going rogue

 

[johnmd20]

What a break for the Rams.

 

[PseuFighter]

lol nfl.

 

[Pablo's TB Lover]

Rams luck out!

 

[patinorange]

What the hell.

 

[McBride11]

Although that drop helped the Rams. Go figure

I don’t get that either. If you’ve snapped the ball, the next play has started and review should be impossible.

 

[Byrdbrain]

Ed f'ckin Houchuli, why say in 10 seconds what you can take 30 seconds to say.
