I've been a sky judge guy for a long time. If the people at home can see something obviously wrong, there should be a ref watching the broadcast as well who can do something about it.

That wasn’t taunting. Johnson and Witherspoon know each other. You could see how they interacted after the play. I do think that was a bad PI call, although Witherspoon not turning back and looking in real time like he held Johnson up was probably what made the ref throw the flag.
The spot on that 4th down play was embarrassing. But the Rams cost themselves that game merely by allowing Maher to be on their roster.

I just worry that’s another reason to call a bajllion more penalties. I want less penalties called. Significantly less.
The NFL wont care or make any changes until it hurts them in the wallet. We all saw the shit show that was “PI reviews”. instead of fixing the issues with the PI reviews they just scrapped it all together.
The best thing Smith-Schuster ever did was absolutely light up Burfict. This shit was unacceptable when Burfict was doing it 5-10 years ago, I'm all for throwing the book at Jackson now.
I was thinking more like fumbles and spot issues. If a guy is short and it's obvious from above, save the coach from having to make a challenge. Ditto if the ball comes out or hits the ground on a reception/interception, signal the ref either to overturn or check it without the coach risking a challenge.
denver is still a bad team even with the win but that said if denver wins next week doubtful at best they can still get to 7-8 wins this year
because Buff is wildey up/down
Minn is as bad as us
cle has no passing game
Hou and LAC are 50/50 games
long story short a win next week sits denver up for a 4 or 5 game win steak
I gotcha. I’m all for that, I just don’t trust the NFL not to screw it up royally.
The spot issues, fumbles, completion, etc. issues could be easily solved if they just put a chip in the ball and went to a tennis-like system.
Wasn’t it “national tight ends day” a month ago? Am I having one of those Mandela Effect things? Cuz I swear it’s “national daughters day” on Facebook at least 14 times a year.
What is going on with Bradley Cooper’s voice? Doesn’t sound much like him. Must be something with the mixing.
I was just about to write that whenever anyone asks me what my favorite color is, I answer green because I think that's right. This might be the best shade of green I've ever seen.
Huh? Only way that draw makes sense is if you were gonna go for it if you got inside the 2 yard line…but that’s counting on a rush of 7-8 yards from the 9.
When people complain about game altering penalties they should also consider horrible play calls like that. You get down there with 2 excellent throws then try a designed run on 3rd and long?
Collinsworth can’t understand why Jalen Carter wasn’t perceived as the top player on teams’ boards.
Agree 1000%.
The "game-altering" calls also ignore the holding and PI, etc. calls that go uncalled throughout the game that would clearly change the outcome.
Absolutely. The traditional Vikings unis are perfection, but Nike had to go and mess them up.
I walked 20+ miles through Philly this morning, and I couldn't go more than a block without running into someone sporting a kelly green retro jersey. (Mostly Hurts, but also a number of Reggie White ones.) These are the Eagles best unis, although I prefer the white jersey version.
One thing missing from the Buddy Ryan era---they all wore black cleats with these unis back then.
Well that might require people acknowledge when calls are in their favorite team’s favor. But we can’t have that.
Not a one. Which kind of surprised me, even given that Randall had a complicated legacy here.
Would it make sense for a D to kinda let Hurts have a yard of space to run and try to pop the ball out?
These roughing calls are soft but these Dline guys just having to get their free hit on the QB annoys me. Why do it? The risk isn’t worth the reward and you just cost your team 4 pts for nothing. You watched him throw it took a step and a half and hit him for no reason.
I just remember the Starting Lineup action figure from like 1990. I only lived in the suburbs until I was like 9.
Ahhh, Starting Lineup...basically Star Wars figures for sports fans. That was at the height of his "Ultimate Weapon" days.
