Meyers never made a football move. Poyer's 3rd step down is considered exactly that.

Then the refs got it wrong and don't understand the rule considering once he got the 3rd foot down with possession, it's a completed catch. The 3rd foot down satisfies the football move part of the rule.

If he had done that same exact thing in bounds, it would've been a catch. He still caught the ball in-bounds, got two feet down (actually 3, and by the rule, that's a catch with the 3rd foot) without it ever touching the ground. It's on McD for not challenging though when Poyer was right in front of him.

The fact that it would be considered a catch in-bounds, but somehow it's not because it's out of bounds shows how ridiculous the rule is. As long as the ball didn't touch the ground, it should be treated like any other catch IMO.

He never made an effort even when he was close to him. Let's not make excuses for a lack of hustle.

After watching Rhodes mildly jog on the Jones TD, I was fuming. Little to no effort from him on that play.

After a few seasons under his belt, he's finally developing that football 6th sense that great players have, where they just seem to know where the ball is going and where they need to be. Milano has already developed this and that's why he's always around the football and able to make a play. Having two linebackers of that caliber in the middle who can do that can turn a good defense into a great defense. When either of them were out, we saw the drop off. Pay that man.

Diggs catches more than make up for his few drops. The drops are more frustrating from the other guys like Davis since they don't have anywhere near the production Diggs does.

Yeah, drops were frustrating last night, but despite those and the not-so-great pass blocking, we were able to establish a running game against a pretty good defense. Saw a stat that said NE has held opponents to less than 80 yds rushing in 5 of the last 6 games. We ran for 132 and only 20 were from Josh. If that's something we can start doing on a consistent basis, that will take a ton of pressure off Josh.

Davis with the hands

Phillips down now from chasing Jones around? Hopefully he's just out of breath.

That's the rule. Considered just like targeting in college ball.

Pats are playing like they are the ones up 17.

Is Von on the sideline? Have they showed him once?

It's like every time they run it, they get good yards, but Dorsey doesn't like to run it much for some reason.

Quess hasn't played well, but got to give him props for even being out there. Dude has guts.

Pay that mhan his money!

We stopped the screen! Yahhh! Poyer

Holy crap! We have a running game even without Dawk?

TD motor!

Knox back in

Soon as I saw the ends push upfied, I knew Josh was taking off.

Diggs is incredible

Knox down.

Yes he was. Left side all alone.
