  1. That dipspit that hit Josh in the face late just brought down the wrath. Enjoy your winnings, hero....
  2. There is nothing plain about "forcible contact". You can interpret it about 100 different ways. Officials are currently choosing to interpret it as any contact.
  3. I thought those first down carries were about nothing more than getting the clock moving. I disagreed with it at the time and just wanted them to keep running their offense, but can still see the value in it.
  4. I thought he just got his hips a little cockeyed and took a couple steps to keep from falling on his arse.
  5. Where we have a disconnect re: the Oliver penalty and low "hits" is between how the rule is written and how it's being called. The rule was written and intended to prevent "forcible contact" on QB's below the knee. It wasn't supposed to be a penalty for tackling a guy low, it was supposed to protect QB's from being "hit" low. Unfortunately the officials don't want to deal with the subjectivity inherent in the rule so they have just taken to calling any contact at or below the knee as a penalty, even if it is just a guy grabbing hold and wrapping up. If they're not going to call it as it's written, I wish they would just scrap it. They can still leave the stripes the capability to call unnecessary roughness penalties for guys delivering egregious shots to the knee.
  6. Well......?
  7. Grab two at a time and you can minimize those dangerous scenarios.
  8. Not really, but there's still time. Go head butt something.
  9. On that last TD when Josh froze the corner and slung one in to Sanders to finish that dagger of a drive, I actually hurt my neck woofing and cussing at the television. Anybody else take one for the team?
  10. Thanks for making me hungry at 1 in the morning
  11. Doctor, my eyes..... What a gawdawful forum
  12. I wanted Allen off the field after that late fumble recovery, but that's just picking nits.
  13. He was a nozzle when he was a player, too.
  14. He's just crushing virtually every aspect of his job . Whether it's preparation, game management, keeping guys focused, whatever, he's owning it all. His guys don't get distracted by weird stuff (i.e. officiating, weather, turnovers, etc) and just keep executing instead. He gooses Daboll when he needs to. He works clocks like a 20 year vet. Everybody trusts everybody else. He makes sure Beane understands exactly what he needs. The team is always getting better. He makes Leslie Frazier an even better coach. He's a viable Coach of the Year candidate moving forward.
  15. C'mon coach, get Josh out of there
  16. Time to hit everybody, baby!
  17. Thats what happens when you keep running your offense, coach!
  18. this officiating crew is having a gawdawful night
  19. F*** the clock. Run your offense, Brian.
  20. Not to mention the TE is flopping like an NBA player
  21. 40 freaking seconds on that last one.
