Fixxxer Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Can someone out there explain the premise the refs used when making those calls? Ed flappy guns Hochuli, loves some camera time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Thanks for the video. Wow, he torpedoed his knee. Thats some bs right there. IMO all players should be protected from direct knee hits, they always result in injury. yep ugly wasn't it? and no call made it even worse D Hall is a dirty player. I was hoping Rex would head-hunt Hall the next play. Something has got to be done about the officiating. I am embarrassed i felt the same way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
What a Tuel Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 yep ugly wasn't it? and no call made it even worse I am embarrassed i felt the same way I am too. I was cheering for one of our guys to body slam them for a few tackles after they did it to Williams since it obviously isn't worthy of a penalty. Wrestling style tackling! NFL Blitz!

FLFan Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Except he went low on the QB, which is a foul. He hit him in the hips, not the knees, which is not a foul. Horrible call without question. yep ugly wasn't it? and no call made it even worse I am embarrassed i felt the same way What is even worse, though not surprising, is that Hall is defending his hit in. Twitter exchange with Gragg. No apology of course. He is is a scumbag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatdrinks Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 I don't think it matters where his helmet was. Taking a QB down by the legs is a no-no now. That is not the rule. You can't go lower than the knees. This clearly was not that. Just a horrible call in a poorly officiated game overall by E Hochuli and crew.

vincec Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Except the rule is below the knee I don't think so. The actual rule was posted in the other thread. It says that any contact to the knees, even if it begins above the knees and slides down, is illegal. By the rule, it looked like a penalty. Although the rule itself may be questionable.

Formerly Allan in MD Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 He played on some pretty miserable Redskin teams, with less than stellar coaching. Hopefully, he'll turn out to be a find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am thoroughly disgusted with the play the officiating who watched it and that little f'r Hall. And the Defense Coaches for allowing it. Good thing Richie was not on the field, because there would be repercussions. any one notice how Hendy kept picking up our players? Hope Lorenzo makes the cut down !! He played on some pretty miserable Redskin teams, with less than stellar coaching. Hopefully, he'll turn out to be a find. And then we can thank Whaley and his pro scouting group.

3rdand12 Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 (edited) No worries there. Can we review the first cut down at LBs and edge? New thread perhaps? Edited August 28, 2016 by 3rdand12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Can we review the first cut down at LBs and edge? New thread perhaps? Rex has all but said he is starting if Manny Lawson can't play. He was with the ones yesterday when Hughes was not in there. There is no chance he doesn't make the team barring injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no chance he doesn't make the team barring injury. I heard the same weeks ago But i wanted to look at the cut downs before Tuesday for fun. Hawthorne Striker Albright R Johnson As things stand my guess is he'll be in on the sub packages in passing situations. Just passing though? What do we know about his anti run game?

starrymessenger Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I see your gonna be stubborn on this..... Its ok.....Im being stubborn that Greg Little needs to make this team and nobody agrees with me..... I sort of feel for Little in the same way that I feel for EJ. Little is what this WR corps needs, and doesn't otherwise have. He's big, physical and fast and a decent route runner. The problem is that he's just not a "natural" catcher of the football. If he were that he'd still be a Brown. You can clearly see that in his play. He has to do more to track and focus in on the ball than good WRs do, maybe not a whole lot more but at this level of competition it makes for a significant difference in the results. His hands are not NFL reliable. EJ has all the physical tools you could want but he is just not a "natural" thrower of the football. A natural thrower either doesn't make the kinds of mistakes EJ does and which we sometimes describe as mechanical (I think they may be physiological at root) or overcomes them with coaching and training. EJ can and has improved but through no fault of his own he has a relatively low ceiling. Really its a shame but both Little and EJ would be well served by having less of what they bring to the table, which is a lot, and more of what they do not. Unfortunately you don't get to manage these things as you would like. I feel for both players. Close but definitely no cigar. Little might make the cut and may actually be a contributor, but you can't count on it or him. Compare him with a guy like Powell. Different player types I realize, but Powell is definitely a natch. He just needs to refine his game so that he can continue to execute against starting calibre DBs and learn the friggen playbook. D Hall is a dirty player. I was hoping Rex would head-hunt Hall the next play. Something has got to be done about the officiating. How do you target a DB for punishment? If so inclined, and IMO Hall is, they get to ruin a WR's or even TE's career. If Hall sees Jason Peters or Earl Cambell coming at him at the second level I have no doubt he is a lot less aggressive, and maybe just gets out of the way. He is no Steve Atwater.

Nice to see an undrafted role player last 10 plus years in the league and make it to a pro bowl. Credit to the game too. Shows how football at this level is a professional endeavour for serious people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
