26CornerBlitz Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 I agree it was a dirty hit. I was just disagreeing that every time a QB slides he shouldn't be hit period. That's the entire point of giving yourself up.
Kelly the Dog Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 That's the entire point of giving yourself up. Of course. But if you slide one foot away from a charging defender he can't stop in time because when he is going to tackle you you have t slid yet.
K D Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 I think you are way off base here. Even in slow motion Kiko had plenty of time to read and react to what was happening. The fact is he did read it, and chose to lower his shoulder into Flacco's head. I do not think this have seen a more egregious example of Intent to injure all year l. I respectfully disagree. I think it was a bang-bang play and Kiko committed to hitting him no matter what because initially it looked like he was trying to get the first. Flacco chickened out at the last moment and slid at the exact time Kiko went for the hit. If it was Vontaze Burfict maybe I would feel differently. Kiko plays hard and came in too hot but I don't think he tried to intentionally target his head. But because he did make contact with his head yes I think he could have been ejected and it will be a fine
26CornerBlitz Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Of course. But if you slide one foot away from a charging defender he can't stop in time because when he is going to tackle you you have t slid yet. Sure, but that's not what happened in this case tonight.
1st Ammendment NoMas Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 yet ANOTHER helmet to helmet. he hit him with the shoulder. replays showed it clearly. should pad direct to head, still a bit dirty.
TDTT Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Something about tonights game is reminding me why I can't stand the Dolphins.
Kelly the Dog Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Sure, but that's not what happened in this case tonight. Agreed. But you said it's automatic. Ha.
26CornerBlitz Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Agreed. But you said it's automatic. Ha. Well. There are always exceptions of course.
EmotionallyUnstable Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Kiko should have done this. This is great... ...and accurate
TDTT Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 The Dolphins suck! But what about their awesome defense?!
BuffaloRebound Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Brutal game. 3rd string QB v 2nd. It was close. I never saw Kiko as dirty. I think he was hell bent on stopping a first down. I can excuse not being able to avoid hitting Flacco in that situation. No excuse for putting your forearm into a guys head who is already on the ground. It's almost like they teach that crap on that team. Suh is the dirtiest player in the league. Landry up there too. Think it rubs off on rest of team.
TheFunPolice Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 This pot's pretty close to boiling... I've got my Chardonnay and my asiago crisps ready!
26CornerBlitz Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 But what about their awesome defense?! Invisible tonight. Suh and Wake? Where are they?
TheFunPolice Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Doesn't Baltimore winning help us more than the Dolphins winning?
Doc Brown Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 Doesn't Baltimore winning help us more than the Dolphins winning? Pry not considering we play the Fins twice and Ravens are WC contenders, but screw the Fins.
