NFL Week 16 Game Thread

there at least it seemed they were using the alleged 'irrefutable evidence' standard.
As opposed to the James White stepping out of bounds overturn.

The problem here is the standard is so damn flimsy and seemingly arbitrary.

 

[Average Reds]

Cam Newton, thespian.

 

[Jnai]

This timeout seems absurdly greedy by Washington.

 

[Kramerica Industries]

This timeout seems absurdly greedy by Washington.

no way...make them snap and punt. Now take a knee.

 

[Kramerica Industries]

ok, don't take a knee

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

no way...make them snap and punt. Now take a knee.

Or, drive it down their throat and put up some more points before the half.

 

[Average Reds]

Eagles are just an undisciplined, poorly-coached team.

 

[bankshot1]

hands to the face?

 

[P'tucket rhymes with...]

Wash playing with fire. Take the points.

 

[bankshot1]

its amateur hour

 

[Jnai]

The Redskins.

 

[P'tucket rhymes with...]

What a fucking moron.

 

[Jnai]

Lol

 

[Oppo]

Fail

 

[Kramerica Industries]

thats different

 

[Average Reds]

And Cousins out-stupided the Eagles.

I mean, that's simply incredible.

 

[P'tucket rhymes with...]

"I don't know why Kirk took knee."

Manningitis is an ugly disease, friends.

 

[PayrodsFirstClutchHit]

What was the purpose of that play? Why even bother with the spike which I assume was what he was trying to do? Just kick it!

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

I don't think I've ever seen that in my entire life.

 

[CaptainLaddie]

That was fucking awesome.

 

[patinorange]

Brady
Rodgers
Wilson
Newton
Ben
Dalton
Palmer
Cousins

Seriously, does anyone else belong above Cousins at this point? Not sure I would put Brees, Flacco, Luck, Eli, Rivers or anyone else above him

He just dropped a few spots.

 

[Nator]

So happy Bill is the Patriots coach. That was the stupidest minute of football ever.

 

[snowmanny]

Um.

 

[Average Reds]

"I don't know why Kirk took knee."

Manningitis is an ugly disease, friends.

Yeah, he really puked all over Cousins there. Not that I blame him.

 

[jk333]

Cousins just took a knee coming out of a timeout. Bookies?

Unreal, not sure I've seen something like that before with so much time to plan, etc.

 

[Average Reds]

He just dropped a few spots.

Awesome.

 

[Ralphwiggum]

Most high school QBs probably don't fuck that up, right?

 

[Kramerica Industries]

What was the purpose of that play? Why even bother with the spike which I assume was what he was trying to do? Just kick it!

yeah, the only thing i could think of was they were planning on a fade and didn't get the look?

 

[shawnrbu]

The coach literally said in the on field interview after the play that the call was to throw a fade to Garcon.

 

[shawnrbu]

yeah, the only thing i could think of was they were planning on a fade and didn't get the look?

I thought maybe Cousins thought the Eagles were offsides and he was trying to save some clock.

 

[Jnai]

Most high school QBs probably don't fuck that up, right?

Kneeling? Uh, no.

 

[k-factory]

this game pretty much sums up the 2015 season for the NFC East.

 

[Jnai]

Maybe the play call for a fade in the Redskins system is Kneel-2-Y-Banana?

 

[Mugsy's Walk-Off Bunt]

Most high school QBs probably don't fuck that up, right?

My mom doesn't fuck that up. And she thinks "Beverly Hills Cowboy" was a movie.

 

[Ralphwiggum]

Kneeling? Uh, no.

No, not kneeling.

Wait, are we saying the same thing?

 

[FenwayFrenzy]

The coach literally said in the on field interview after the play that the call was to throw a fade to Garcon.

Just saw the replay, Garçon didn't move. Looks like Gruden was saving face for his QB.

 

[Jnai]

No, not kneeling.

Wait, are we saying the same thing?

Yes. Most high-school QBs do not fuck up by randomly kneeling.

 

[Shelterdog]

My mom doesn't fuck that up. And she thinks "Beverly Hills Cowboy" was a movie.

Amazing

 

[Average Reds]

I thought maybe Cousins thought the Eagles were offsides and he was trying to save some clock.

In what universe is taking a knee the appropriate response to "Oh, the opponent looks offside?"

 

[Ralphwiggum]

Yes. Most high-school QBs do not fuck up by randomly kneeling.

Yeah, ok.

I've been drinking. Happy holidays.

 

[Average Reds]

I mean, RG III wouldn't do that.

 

[shawnrbu]

Chip Kelly with a challenge that has 0% chance to succeed.

 

[bankshot1]

Carey is getting this one right.
he's way overdue

 

[Marciano490]

Kirk Cousins is a top what QB? 10? 7?

 

[crystalline]

Eagles offense looked good that drive

 

[Average Reds]

Eagles offense looked good that drive

Yes, they looked shockingly competent.

Blind squirrel, acorn, etc.

 

[Sox and Rocks]

Brady
Rodgers
Wilson
Newton
Ben
Dalton
Palmer
Cousins

Seriously, does anyone else belong above Cousins at this point? Not sure I would put Brees, Flacco, Luck, Eli, Rivers or anyone else above him

Romo

Rivers

Carr

Fitzpatrick

 

[Al Zarilla]

Sprowles fumbles punt, gets cut by Eagles, Pats pick him up. I wish.

 

[Average Reds]

How predictable was that.

 

[patinorange]

Nice play call. Toss right, the wet ball.
