Week 5 NFL Game Thread

Sneak it

 

[ngruz25]

Does the league explain all booth reviews, or just the controversial ones? It's entirely possible that the OPI ends up being totally meaningless and forgotten, but I really cannot fathom the how that call stood. I need an explanation.

 

[patinorange]

Jesus Christ. These timeouts.

Riveron’s yacht ain’t gonna maintenance itself

 

[Harry Hooper]

Yeesh, no timeouts left for the Colts.

 

[mostman]

Those stats are bullshit. Obvious bullshit.

 

[GoDa]

I can't explain how much I hate these "chance of winning" stats that have popped up all over sports.

 

[Reggie's Racquet]

You cannot burn a to there.

 

[Blue Monkey]

Learned that from Tom

 

[Reverend]

When would you take the safety in the situation where KC just punted? I would have really thought about it.

Belichick’s done it a couple of times.

 

[Deathofthebambino]

Flag coming in 3, 2, 1.....

 

[Dollar]

Great push by Brissett. He could have easily been stuffed.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Mack trucked that guy.

 

[InstaFace]

The "no joining the ruck from behind" rule must be the least enforced rule on the books.

 

[nothumb]

i'm terrified mack is gonna cough it up on one of those spins, but i fucking love him right now

 

[BigSoxFan]

If Indy scores TD here, it’s not over...but it may be over.

 

[patinorange]

Flag coming in 3, 2, 1.....

What do you think? Holding on a running play is my guess.

 

[Byrdbrain]

You cannot burn a to there.

They absolutely couldn’t take delay of game there, when the clock got to 1 those were the only 2 options.

 

[bigq]

KC defense looks gassed.

 

[Deathofthebambino]

The "no joining the ruck from behind" rule must be the least enforced rule on the books.

Pretty sure they got rid of it, which is why you see lineman and backs constantly doing it in recent years.

 

[The Social Chair]

Nelson is a monster.

 

[Blue Monkey]

The "no joining the ruck from behind" rule must be the least enforced rule on the books.

I thought that was only a college rule? Not that it’s enforced there either.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

If they don’t score here it’ll be shocking

 

[jsinger121]

Chiefs defense can't stop a nosebleed. They are awful

 

[cshea]

Christ

 

[luckiestman]

This is awesome. I remember one MNF game when I was much younger where Marcus Allen ran it something like 11 times on one drive for a TD.

 

[GoDa]

And they run the -8 yd run play... ffs.

 

[InstaFace]

Well, that ain't gonna help.

 

[BigSoxFan]

OMG. Dumb ass shit play call!

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Jesus Christ the Colts will somehow fuck this up

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Running up the middle at will, then lose 8 on a trick play outside. Terrible call.

 

[Ralphwiggum]

That’s horrendous.

 

[Harry Hooper]

Hammer, hammer, hammer, and then a goofy toss.

 

[Brand Name]

You have to really dig deep for it, but the ref pool report should have some good information. I'll post it as soon as I can because I have the same feelings as you.

 

[( . ) ( . ) and (_!_)]

Run the ball sideways. Smart.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

Belichick is going to run it 40 times against KC

 

[mauf]

No chance to check out of the play when you come to the line that late.

 

[InstaFace]

Great fuckin play from the honey badger though

 

[Deathofthebambino]

You're running up the middle like there is no defense, and you call it a fucking 8 yard backwards pitch to the edge in that situation? Jesus fucking Christ. No chance Indy wins this game.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

that might have lost the game.

 

[bankshot1]

went cute when smash mouth was working so well

 

[Dollar]

what the hell is that play call, when inside runs are working every time?

 

[pappymojo]

So weird to find myself kinda liking the Colts.

 

[Harry Hooper]

Incompetence for the OC.

 

[soxin6]

Horrible play call on 2nd down killed the drive

 

[Ralphwiggum]

So the Chiefs win this 17-16.

 

[patinorange]

Field goal. Losers.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Indy might deserve to lose after that sequence

 

[mostman]

That was a real dumb second down play. You are gashing them right up the middle. Just keep doing it.

 

[OurF'ingCity]

Why do teams (I include the Pats here) insist on doing those ridiculous pitches that puts the RB 10 yards behind the line when they've had lots of success running it straight up the gut or off-tackle?
