heffley 12 Posted November 25, 2013 I like how the flag was thrown for Drew Brees getting hit in the shoulder (Or Neck whichever way you see it) But, Jason Campbell gets annihilated by the Steelers defender and no question it was all head. No flag was thrown at all! Just a way to show yes the NFL is trying to protect the QB's. But, if your name isn't Brees, Manning, Brady, etc. Then they really aren't trying to protect you they only want to protect the big names that make them money. in the end its all about money, not the safety of players. Good job Goodell!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
parrot 789 Posted November 25, 2013 Started him, lost two points for the fumble, ended up tying my game, and may end up out of the playoffs because of it. Sometimes I hate this focking game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im not even a Browns fan actually hate them cause I live in Ohio and they are super obnoxious fans. Who thinks their team is the best but yet always terrible year in and year out? (Says a Bills fan lol) But, that hit was ridiculous to not get a flag. Anyone can see that. Unlike the Brees one was 50/50 of who thought it was or wasn't.

heffley 12 Posted November 26, 2013 No, I knew this but its sad when now the announcers are agreeing with us now. Jon Gruden is always saying how the rules are a joke now... It's awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SaintsInDome2006 128 Posted November 26, 2013 Lol , Saints fan defending a bogus call? You don't say... Yeah, every team gets them for them and against them. But the hit on Brees was a legit call in today's NFL. I don't like it but that's how they call them, everyone knows that. If you want to debate the fairness of it, then give the Saints the safety for the grounding on Kaepernick in the end zone just a few plays after Brees got called for grounding on a play when he was much more outside the pocket. That's the game right there and Brooks never gets to go after Brees in the first place. Whole thing's absurd, basically several refs are making calls on what they think will make the game interesting, or how the home crowd will react (see no holding vs NE on the last play of the NO game, no PI against CAR on the last play of the NE game), they also play favorites. Teams like Cleveland get the shaft because the refs frankly don't care. The Saints have had them go against them - the kind of thing where a defender's hand just brushes the helmet in passing or on the way down, it's ridiculous. But if we get it against us we should get it for us. Generally the 9ers are a dirty team - I saw Brooks (I think) tackle Griffin way out of bounds last night, right into the 9ers' bench. No call.

That hit on Griffin was plainly out of bounds, Griffin was not in bounds when he was hit. The 9ers take a dirty shot on teams every single game, usually they knock someone out along the way. Helmet to helmet is a regular thing with them. Last night Aldon Smith took a nuts shot at Griffin. Etc. Every game. Dirtiest team in the NFL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dpbuddha 9 Posted November 26, 2013 How about you fight you way forward, jump up and have your friend push you in the chest and see where your leg goes. Smith even reached down afterward...obviously not intentional. Nice try. http://www.diehardsport.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Aldon-Smith-kicks-RGIII-in-nuts.gif Still funny to watch though.

I thought the Saints were fined 500k and lost their 2nd round draft picks for 2012 & 2013. And coaches were suspended they always do that to innocent offenders. My mistake ! Don't be a fool it's widely known that it happened. No use discussing this with a saints fan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
