    The only thing worse than NFL refs are college refs

    anything to screw the Lions. j/k, the rule was new for the year and one the refs were tracking in 2010, the Johnson catch was the first call involving it. The rule sucked then and it sucks now. Bryant was robbed. He had more of a catch then Johnson did, and Johnson's should have been a TD. That coming from a fan of the team that benefited from Johnson's non-catch. I hope you mean robbed by the rule rather than robbed by the refs yesterday. If it's the latter then your post doesn't make sense.

    I'm fully expecting a SEA win but it will most likely be a competitive game.

    I'd be happy with it. I think the Bears want to try experience this time, at the NFL HC level, as a clean break from Trestman,

    It's just another glimpse of how out there the rules have become. PI can't be reliably called. Holding is a crapshoot. Completed catches could go either way depending on a number of things. Heck, many times the play clock is at zero and no flag. Guys are lined up in the neutral zone, no call. It's terrible all around

    Nope He took his first step while bobbling the ball, then took two more while in possession of the ball. That should be a catch. "If a player goes to the ground in the act of catching a pass (with or without contact by an opponent), he must maintain control of the ball after he touches the ground, whether in the field of play or the end zone. If he loses control of the ball, and the ball touches the ground before he regains control, the pass is incomplete. If he regains control prior to the ball touching the ground, the pass is complete." No mention of taking steps The steps matter because he already caught the ball. He caught the ball, took two steps and had his right elbow hit the ground before his left did and the ball came loose. As far as I'm concerned, by that time, he's no longer in the act of catching a pass. He caught the pass. Which is why if anything, it should have been a catch and he's down by contact when the right elbow hits. He's going to the ground. I could see if he's upright and taking steps but he's not. He's still heading to the ground. Look I [expletive] hate it.

    Bryant just ended DAL season trying to reach for it
  11. Soul
    Not a catch
  12. Soul
    I know. Can't understand Whoa
  13. Soul
    The Dallas pressure has been...attenuated
  14. Soul
    Sheesh.
  15. Soul
    How can they not see that the ball hit the ground there?
  16. Soul
    They are essentially identical to Cards fans.

    Rodgers' injury really cost the Pack on that sequence.
  18. Soul
    Matthews is filthy. Always has been.
  19. Soul
    Thought they were going to call cheap shots to the QB's knees
  20. Soul
    Huh? How so?
  21. Soul
    Wasn't the claim "as good a chance of winning in Seattle as Detroit"? So close to zero for both
  22. Soul
    Someone probably said good things about Emery too, when he was interviewing. I'm not putting much stock in that.

    Cancer is the worst thing in the world

    No.

    He ran a pretty good team and got the most out of a middling quarterback then all was lost when that qb turned back into a pumpkin. They jumped from 2 wins to 9 wins this season while using Case Keenum for awhile. Kubiak is a terrible coach. Marc Trestman is a terrible coach. Kubiak is several levels above Trestman. If that's still terrible in your view, so be it.
