Hardcore troubadour 12,695 Posted September 30, 2019 4 minutes ago, Cruzer said: I though he looked good. The Saints were ripping off 6, 7. 8 yard on 1st down every drive. And when he needed a 3rd down conversion - there way Thomas. He also dropped some dimes in spots only his wrs could catch them, particularly along the sideline. Stats don't always tell the story, but 193 yards and a pick does. Plus he took a sack at the end to knock them out of FG range. He's getting lit up if the Cowboys could have kicked one to win.

I have been astonished by how terrible the booth has been with missed PI calls this year. if we are going to review it, f'n get it right. Last Thursday night the coaches challenged two PI non calls, one against the Eagkes and the other vs. the Packers. Both were blatant PI and neither non call was overturned. So we got 5-6 minutes of game stoppage just to watch the refs blow both calls twice in slow motion. Heckuva job NFL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 12,695 Posted September 30, 2019 I'm thinking it won't be such a happy week 5 for my Giants. Or 6. Playtime is over, growing pains begin. It's all good, have to go through it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Week before Lions-Eagles, Miles Samders nearly gets his head ripped off by the gacenask on a punt return. The refs stop the game for review 12-15 times a game but still blow obvious calls all the time. NFL should just go back to blowing the occasional call without adding a half hour of nonsense to every game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vuduchile 1,941 Posted September 30, 2019 2 hours ago, Cruzer said: Ha, well goodbye 19-0. Credit to NO and S. Payton - he had his team ready to play and outcoached Red...... that being said: * Garrett and the Boy Wonder (K. Moore) laid an egg. They took the Saints lightly, thought they could stroll into the Superdome and win with a basic/conservative game plan. * Offensive line got its ass kicked. I've been saying for years, the highest paid line in football is overrated - showed again. * Defensive line got its ass kicked, again - what's new... We are severely undersized up front and we continue to get blown off the ball. * Fumbles - can't turn it over twice on the road. * Officiating was terrible - but was for both teams. The stripes are back to making the game about them. * This one will hurt. You can't lose games where your opponent scores 12 points and no tds. I put this one mostly on the offense. The D held Kamara in check, and didn't give up any TD's. The offense got their asses kicked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jerryskids 5,213 Posted October 1, 2019 This pass interference challenge thing might be on the Mount Rushmore of stupid rule changes by the NFL. The NFL has virtually no intention of overturning calls as far as I can tell. I wonder if they would have overturned that one in the playoffs that led to this idiocy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In their minds it's a success after last night, they overturned last years Rams / Saints game by giving the Saints a little sumpthin' against the Cowboys.
