Week 5: Bucs at Bears on Thursday Night (Fox, NFLN, Amazon Prime, Seeso, Quibi, Palm Pilot

[We Got The Whole 9]

Man catch it and get out of bounds dummy

 

aikman complained about that too, but was it really that bad of a play? There was 40 seconds left and they had 2 timeouts

 

IDK just seemed like a KISS moment. If he would have fumbled I would have been furious.

way to keep the momentum going boys

They aren't good enough to do that

Hell of a 3Q

[raw]

Dumbass playcalling and penalties and the Bears about to be down 2 scores again.

[raw]

Hell of a 3Q

 

0 points scored in the 3rd quarter this year.

[Tim]

The first play I watched was the Tampa run up the middle for 30+ yards. Every play since has been horrible for the Bears other than the sack.

[Brian]

whatever the Bears do at halftime is not the answer

[Brian]

Bucs are going to commit like 50 years of penalties on this set of downs and still get a first down

[WrigleyField 22]

What's the record for consecutive flags thrown?

[Derwood]

Penalties are awesome. Suck a great drive

[Brian]

SOMEONE GOT CALLED FOR HOLDING MACK

 

HOLY horsefeathers

[minnesotacubsfan]

Mack getting robbed

[raw]

OMG I thought they were going to call roughing

[Tim]

OMG I thought they were going to call roughing

lol - so did Mack

[Brian]

so was that 55 yards of penalties by the Bucs? 35 accepted, 10 offset and 10 declined?

[SpongeWorthy]

nice to see Mack play at this level

[Brian]

3rd quarter drought continues

[Soul]

I vote for at least one VH outro in every game.

Re: Roughing the passer.

 

If they are going to protect the quarterback and call everything borderline, why not have 2 levels of severity for roughing the passer? The blatant ones or helmet to helmet are still 15 and a 1st. The borderline one where the defender finishes his tackle a split second after the pass can be 5 yards and remains the previous down. I’m sick of seeing those plays that are completely unintentional and ultimately harmless being given such an extreme punishment.

AGreed. Especially in situations like that, where a 15 automatically gives a team the first on 3rd and 27. But they took out the 5-yard facemask so I doubt this happens anytime soon.
