How do you know if he isn't on the yacht deck typing away?

Hitting Too Low One of the NFL's newer rules is often called "The Brady Rule" as it was added after a season-ending injury to New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady in 2008. This rules states that a defensive player who hits a quarterback below the knees when one or two feet are on the ground will be penalized for a personal foul and a 15-yard penalty. The hit must be above the knee to be legal. This penalty is often called on pass rushers who are blocked to the ground, but they continue to scramble toward quarterback and end up hitting him below the knee, exposing him to serious injury. When I saw the Tre play i thought for sure he was going to get flagged, I didnt see any Oliver infraction, think that was a ref mis speaking.

Tre's hit was not legal and was right to have been called, defenders cant go for QBs legs, period, those will be called almost every time.

Yeah exactly where are you hearing such rumors?

Thanks God the Jills are bygone history.

Maybe the above post before yours is accurate and the coach passed, so cancelling makes sense, that would be the civilized response.

Old Charger uniforms were some of the best, it was considered "gaudy" by the old stodgy run up the middle for three yards and a cloud of dust NFL. Is that John Hadl and Jack Kemp? Hadl throwing to Lance Alworth epitimopzied the AFL.

yes the Pats-Ravens game at then end was absurd and i have not seen conditions that bad before. They actually delayed the Texans-=Brown kickoff as the same front moved in. Yes i would doubt conditions will be anything close to that for the Chargers. What is the weather forecast right now?

Wow that is a very macho/tough guy statement for a guy on the internet. Look at the Ravens-Pats game...the Ravens are a much better team but those conditions were laughable, the better team did not win that game.

The Rams can be dominant on football. If Aaron Donald has a great game I expect that Rams to win and it might be an easy win. When under p[pressure as we all know, Brady now is folding quicker than ever, look at the fiasco of a game he had versus the Saints. If the Rams defense shows up the Bucs will fold. If not, I expect a shootout in a very good game.

Wow, a lot of incredibly marginal players in that list

I assume he/she means by every 10 numbers in chronological order, 0-9. 10-19, 20-29 etc

I dont think the NFL has improved, not from a spectators point of view, from a players, yes. From a spectators point of view imo it has gotten worse. Players cant hit as they used to and QBs, especially marquis names like Brady, have been grossly overprotected. And the NFL and its absurd rules about what a "catch" is. A catch is like porn, you know it when you see it, it is difficult, i would say impossible for the NFL to try and "legislate" every single aspect of what a catch is esp when you have multiple camera angles in frame by frame analysis if you want. I appreciate the safety aspect of the game but with all the legal ramifications, i fear the NFL is going to slowly morph into "non-violent" pro bowl like game. As far as player "shelf life" when was the last time we ha dueling QBs in the 40s matched up against each other. Qbs can last a very long time with the current rules. Jack Kemp took more brutal hits in one year than Brady has taken his entire pro career.

i could say one word...coaching.

As a FUTURIST you sure have dreadful predictions. The Dolphins won both of their game you predicted they would get blown out. The Dolphins are a six win team are they? i guess that means they will lose every remaining game including the Broncos, Jets and, and Bengals. Tua must be real real lucky as you claimed he would be lucky to win any of his next four games and he won 2 already. As i wrote at the end of Oct our last game versus the Dolphins might determine the winner of the AFC east.

What is really stunning about Carroll is his total lack of in game awareness, whey so long to make any defensive adjustments...i would "blame" him for the loss if I were a Seahwak fan.

Tight jerseys have been in for decades, a lot easier to get a hold of a loose jersey than the tight ones they wear.

As we all know, not all concussions are equal. I dont recall any details on this one, as far as we know this "concussion" may have been little more than a hard hit which given his medical history might be prudent and enough to put him into concussion protocol.

It is always great timing to bring this up after J Allen has a near record setting day against arguably the worst pass defense in the NFL. Lets not be over emotional over one game, lets at least wait till the end of the year, he has another year left on his rookie contract than when we can start to worry.

Wow. I am impressed. Doesnt happen here very often. Great reference. One of my favorite movies and favorites scenes of all time.

I think that ESPN has jumped the shark years ago. It actually used to be about sports. I half stopped watching the "year of Kapernick" when half of the shows had people yelling at each other why Kapernick isnt playing and then the shows morphed into a contest for people to demonstrate the most outrage that Kapernick isnt playing anymore. Then i fully stopped watching after a month long 90% of ESPN dedicated to Kobe Bryant worship after his tragic death.

Yeah i forgot that and it makes sense. I have been dead wrong on Ford, i guess i bought into the hype from the Bills about how they were praying he would drop to them blah blah blah. Anyway i gave him one year and thought well tackle didnt work out, guard will be his bail out, well that certainly failed.

Really pathetic to see Wyatt Teller there as the second best right guard. With as horrific as our guard play has been this year, can someone remind me who we let why we let Teller go?

i want to hear a matt hasselbeck good guy story.

I saw the last 5 minutes and made me sick to see the Pats win, as they historicaly had and i could tell sure as hell the players certainly wanted that win bad. They players that really really sucked at the end was the numbskull Joe Flacco. He takes a sack and two in completions allowing the PAts to kick a FG with three seconds left. And Gregg Williams defensive play calling feel right into Josh McDaniels trap.
