Is Cutler hurt? The ball isn't coming out of his hand right (and that's not a smart ass comment). It's coming out with a downward slant on the ball.

 

he tends to throw the ball like that a lot, he gets on top of the ball.

 

It just seems like they're all like that tonight. Maybe he's just amped? I don't know.

Lovie wastes a timeout while the clock isn't moving

 

You can't carry timeouts over to the second half. At this point, get the call right. I know why you're complaining, but come on.

 

I thought there were only 2 TOs left. I didn't think it was that big of a deal but it will get pointed out whenever Lovie takes a "our D/O is unorganized" timeout.

that one to sanzenbacher was ugly, but the other throws haven't looked completely abnormal for him.

Yeah, he does get on top of the ball a lot and a lot of his throws look like that. He's only really missed 2 throws. A couple more were bad decisions, and actually 2 of those got completed.

Haha, I love how Tillman celebrated like he was the guy who laid the lumber. Meanwhile the replay shows Briggs destroy Celek.

 

He stood a guy up that weighs at 40 lbs more than him. Yes, Briggs destroyed him, but Tillman stopped him in his tracks.

How the hell was Celek ruled in bounds?

 

his forward progress was stopped while he was in bounds

 

True, but that's a silly rule. Only counts out of bounds if you go out on purpose?

It wouldn't be silly if he was right at the first down marker and was thrown backward out of bounds. Not trying to be a smart ass, just trying to point out why it's in place.

pretty much. i've never fully understood why it's like that. essentially, if your forward progress is stopped initially, you have to stay in bounds and get past the spot where you were initially hit without getting hit again and stopped.
