Week 7 Game Thread

[Ed Hillel]

Carolina seems like the perfect place for Steve Smith, if he can get over how he left.

 

[dcmissle]

May get plenty of sleep tonight.

 

[Ed Hillel]

This could be over quick.

 

[ipol]

Eagles ball.

 

[Ed Hillel]

He's down, so question is incomplete or not.

 

[burstnbloom]

That has to be an INT or I just don't know what a catch in the NFL is anymore. 

 

[ipol]

That's an honest to goodness tough call. Sometimes the refs just suck but this isn't one of those times.

 

[Ed Hillel]

I actually think he had possession and is down by contact.

He wasn't going to the ground in the process of the catch, was he?

I have no fucking clue.

 

[Byrdbrain]

That has to be an INT or I just don't know what a catch in the NFL is anymore. 

or it could be a fumble or maybe he is down, I have no clue.
 
 
Edit:Ruling stands as an interception as it likely would have if it was ruled a fumble or down by contact

 

[Stitch01]

Lol refs

 

[burstnbloom]

It felt like he was fighting with Carroll on the way to the ground and the ball never hit the ground.  Who knows though?  How do you define a catch at this point? 

 

[Jnai]

You get a weird pick. And you get a weird pick. And you get a weird pick.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Stands lol. Refs basically said they have no idea what the rule is, because the evidence was all there.

 

[ipol]

Ball was out before the butt hit. Really close though.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Was earlier in the day, but LOLOL @ Whalen fucking up more on special teams

 

[ipol]

Mr. Matthews? Meet Mr. Davis.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Eff Tom Coughlin.

I would give left nut to put 50 on them

Such a strange team, as always. Completely different team from week to week, drive to drive, play to play. Less than the sum of their parts on offense and don't have the usual horses on the DL, but weird shit happens in every game they play. Would love for the Pats to dominate in November (will be there with my folks and my fiancé/her folks with their season tix) but I very much expect it to be a "get the hell out with a win" game.

 

[dcmissle]

Al Michaels can die his hair orange for all I care. He says stuff others don't dare to say. "I don't know what is a catch anymore."

Wham you are 70 and good at what you do, then the League can go eff itself

 

[dcmissle]

Keep those gambling comments coming too, Al

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

double post

 

[Ed Hillel]

Matthews is a much better fit for this offense than Murray. Also better: LeShon McCoy.

 

[McBride11]

What happened? Havent caught any highlights.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Can't take that sack, especially with a running lane to the right.

 

[Average Reds]

Jesus Christ Bradford. Can you hold the ball longer?

 

[luckiestman]

Matthews is a much better fit for this offense than Murray. Also better: LeShon McCoy.

So is Mark Sanchez

 

[Ed Hillel]

What happened? Havent caught any highlights.

He audibled to a fake punt, took the snap, and kicked it the wrong direction.

 

[EricFeczko]

What happened? Havent caught any highlights.

He fumbled on a return, leading to a turnover.
 

Can't take that sack, especially with a running lane to the right.

 

Jesus Christ Bradford. Can you hold the ball longer?

His immobility in the pocket is almost impossible to comprehend. That sack was entirely on Bradford.

 

[luckiestman]

Jesus Christ Bradford. Can you hold the ball longer?

Same exact thought I had. Flat was covered right away, he should have thrown it away

 

[Ed Hillel]

Eek, neck?

 

[Jnai]

Never good when they come back from commercial and you're not up yet.

 

[Jnai]

Eek, neck?

 
Looked like leg. Stumbled and went down.

 

[Ed Hillel]

That is a sleek, sharp, classy Season Over cart to take him away.

 

[canderson]

Huge loss for Philly.

 

[ipol]

Murray says, "Why the hell did you put it right in my hands?"

 

[Average Reds]

Nice attention to detail Murray.

 

[shawnrbu]

The Giants just clinched the NFC East.

 

[WayBackVazquez]

Jesus, there are like 15 starters in this game from OSU.

 

[ipol]

All respect to the Carolina receivers but this is not a powerhouse group.

 

[Greg29fan]

 
Looked like leg. Stumbled and went down.

 
He's already blown out his Achilles on that leg twice, that was probably the third.

 

[ipol]

Might wanna cover 88...

 

[Ed Hillel]

Eagles D should be better than they are.

 

[ipol]

Bad throw.

 

[Ed Hillel]

That is one ugly throwing motion.

 

[nothumb]

collinsworth was just talking about how cam can whip it wherever without stepping into it, cam proceeds to whip it over a wide open guy's head off his back foot.

 

[Greg29fan]

Eagles D should be better than they are.

 
They're always on the field

 

[luckiestman]

 
They're always on the field

Well, isn't that his point? That's Chip's way around the new practice rules. They get extra practice in the game

 

[ipol]

Al whips Dungy under the wheels!

 

[luckiestman]

I didn't even know Sproles was one of my favorite players but that Dungy fact moved him up the list

 

[dcmissle]

All respect to the Carolina receivers but this is not a powerhouse group.

Yep. But lest a suggestion above go too far, Steve Smith Sr. says that if the Ravens try to trade him, he will retire immediately.

I would not want to test him on that.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Why did he wait so long to run?
