chris heff Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 (edited) NFL needs to adopt college rule, two personal fouls and you're out. That being said I hate both of these teams. Edited January 8, 2017 by chris heff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted January 8, 2017 Author Share Posted January 8, 2017 Exactly. You're missing the firest for the trees. But carry on. Pitt is gonna put up 35-40 and this game will be over by the end of the third. And dupree stays in the game. Throw him out, and tha ajayi play probably doesnt happen. ? They wouldn't have been able to throw him out before the Ajayi play happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not true - they could signal that it was impending assuming the league made those sorts of plays ejection worthy as a policy. They don't, so players feel that retaliating, no matter how ill directed, is the only way they can respond.

And players don't see it the way TV viewers do. Chances are Ajayi wouldn't know for sure nor would all of the officials. It almost wasn't a bad hit. He led with his helmet, but it was three inches from being his shoulder. You can argue all you want about the bad hit but it happens so fast players wouldn't automatically know it was an ejection nor would it stop them one bit from an emotional reaction.

The Frankish Reich Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 i don't know if he is, but Elway wants him. Favorite for Denver job. One of the great mysteries of the NFL coaching carousel. Maybe they should talk to Rob Ryan too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Frankish Reich Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Matt Moore: something to be said for playing with guts. Nothing to lose, and at least he understands that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big C Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Moore is one of the best if not the very best backup in the league. Absolutely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Frankish Reich Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 oh well. For a brief moment there I found myself cheering the Dolphins on. A sign of how much I dislike both these teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Seemed like Moore actually saw the guy coming, and still didn't protect the ball. Shoulda thrown it away or turtled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It almost wasn't a bad hit?!? What planet do you live on? Even if he had led with his shioulder, the deliberate violence of it -- plus the fact that it was a qb and the fact that he was entirely defenseless -- made it unconscionable. Maybe i'm alone here, but this sort of play is what i hate about the sport. Edited January 8, 2017 by dave mcbride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubs Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Is Mario Williams still in the NFL? Coulda sworn he was on the Dolphins. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe i'm alone here, but this sort of play is what i hate about the sport. The deliberate violence of it? BS. The QB was scrambling out of the pocket. The player did what he had to do to prevent Moore from throwing past him. http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/2017010800/2016/POST18/dolphins@steelers#menu=drivechart%7CcontentId%3A0ap3000000771419&tab=track Not sure if that will link to the specific video but its there in the highlight section Edited January 8, 2017 by What a Tuel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
