Around the NFL - Week 13 2024 (no Bills discussion please)

[CincyBillsFan]

Watching multiple NFL games only reinforces just how bad the officiating is.  It is putrid and I can't tell if this is corruption or incompetence or both.

 

In the Cincy game as clear an Offside as you can get was turned into an illegal procedure on the Bengals.  In the Jacksonville game a brutal, cheap shot was taken on Lawrence as he went into his slide that knocked him out of the game.  After the refs met, with help from NY, they determined the penalties were offsetting!  What absolute BS,  as the Jag players understandably went after the POS that committed the cheap shot.

The Jets didn't ruin Sam Darnold. He just isn't very good.

Yep, just had five seconds in the pocket, panicked, almost got sacked, then almost got picked

Wilson seemed to be calling for the TO well before they stopped the clock there?

that hit on lawrence is pretty much standard for they were doing to caitlyn clark in the wnba

I can't believe I'm about to say this but I have no problem with fans throwing bottles at that guy.  This is 100% on the NFL for not immediately ejecting him from the game.  The NFL is bush league and they should not get mad if the fans return the favor.

Yeah it is a disgrace that Houston ultimately is not punished for the dirtiest hit of the year. Offsetting penalties and each team had a player ejected. Truly disgraceful.

Has every NFL coach and QB lost their minds when it comes to the final seconds of a half?  Some real head-scratchers this week.  At least Pittsburgh got points.

Huge cheap shot in Lawrence

Absolutely disgusting shot.

And now Romo misses a FG for the Vikings.

 

It feels like Boswell is the only kicker who can be relied up on for now (watch him miss one in the second half).

Looks like Alex van Pelt has been living on clam chowder, back bacon and Sam Adams since leaving Buffalo

You say that like it's a bad thing

Ive got to ask why so many Bills fans are rooting for the Steelers?  The fear of the Bengal's is deeply misplaced and the Steelers are still a threat to jump past the Bills in seeding. Trust me when I say that this Bengal's defense is bad, very bad.  If they sneaked into the playoffs as the 7th seed the Bills would destroy them in the wildcard round.

Good on whichever Jags player beat the hell out of that guy.

Because unless Pittsburgh catches us on Opening Day, we kick the living ***** out of them.

Completely different play.. Brady was scrambling and not actively sliding. Also the league had not changed the rules at that point. Clearly in today’s NFL the defense knows that play is unacceptable! 

Expand  

 

Yes I was asked specifically about if that play was today.

Cincy can drag any team into a shootout and that's a scary proposition. Too much variance in shootouts for my liking.
