I still can't believe they blew that dead. Unbelievably dumb
 
Aren't the game officials instructed for years now specifically not to blow the whistle on such plays?

Well, I think that if they are unsure they don't blow the whistle, but if the official that was making the call thought he was down then that's his call.

The kicker has an illness.
Ahh, ok. But if Caldwell doesn't go for it on fourth and three from the 20 and instead sends his sick kicker in, can I call him an idiot then?

So, if the arm is weak, why not blitz him and make him get rid of it quickly and with something on it? Don't let routes develop and receivers to gain separation.

Jesus---Peyton's arm could fly off tonight and Collinsworth would compliment him.

Miller was way offsides.
He wasn't. I went back back and put it on slow mo - the ball was snapped before he crossed the line. Of course running it up the gut there was not exactly a good choice.

The blitzes need to come directly up the middle. None of this trailing corner/safety shit. Jesus, NFL, BB showed this to you last year.

Especially since he needs to step into every throw.

Exactly. Fuck it. I'm going to the DEN game. We'll see it then.

Peyton? Jaime Collins.

Jaime Collins? Turtled Manning.

Didn't Talib dominate Megatron a few years ago? Or was that Browner?

Here
I don't understand why that was OPI either. You can shove someone within 5 yards before the ball is thrown.
