Game Day Thread OFFICIAL 2025 Week 16 Game Thread: NE @ BAL

[Since1960]

That was roughing the passer?? My Grandma smacked me harder than that when I was about 8!!

 

[Vindicate]

Wait, remind me, are we watching American Football? Because that penalty suggests otherwise.

 

[FCB02062]

Maye has really ****ed the team today. He's had his moments but screwed the team out of 6 points at least

 

[TommyD4207]

That was BS roughing and it looked like a backward pass to me

I thought Davis caught that clean. Forward or backward, should have been an INT, negated by the roughing.

 

[n1997y]

This league needs professional refs.

They have the best their money can buy.

 

[dannydyn]

Should have spiked it on the last play instead of rushing it. Get in an huddle, call a play, collect yourself, and go. Instead Everything was half baked and rushed. ****ing McDaniels.

 

[DaBruinz]

Doing nothing at the trade deadline was a mistake

Like every fool who whines about the Trade Deadline, you don't understand that it takes two to tango. You seem to have missed the NUMEROUS pundit posts about the Pats trying to make deals and nothing doing.

Go ahead and WHINE about not doing a deal with the Titans. You know. The team whose owner refuses to do a deal with Vrabel.

 

[Thelonious]

What is roughing the passer?

It's when you say mean stuff and everybody feels discouraged and mopey.

 

[NFL Mystique]

Maye has really ****ed the team today. He's had his moments but screwed the team out of 6 points at least

Yeah the turnovers are a huge problem with him. It needs to be fixed if he wants to be an elite QB.

 

[doesntmatter1]

When we get a better line, Maye is going to be ridiculous. He is a true gunslinger that is currently in shackles with guys like Lowe around.

 

[Santi]

Not having timeouts burnt us.

yeah but @DaBruinz disagrees that it was bad game management having to use them earlier in the half lol

Two dumb moments almost taking delay of game cost us a better chance before the half.

 

[FCB02062]

These refs are absolutely awful. Guarantee this game will be decided by the zebras in the 4th quarter

 

[Kdo5]

Frustrating decisions by Maye has cost the team 6 valuable points in a tie game.

 

[Ross12]

I thought Davis caught that clean. Forward or backward, should have been an INT, negated by the roughing.

I don't really know why it matters direction because I don't think Andrews ever established possession, it was basically just an INT, yeah.

 

[Love The Drake]

Should have spiked it on the last play instead of rushing it. Get in an huddle, call a play, collect yourself, and go. Instead Everything was half baked and rushed. ****ing McDaniels.

I didn’t like the way that looked, should of spiked it and recollected.

 

[Ian]

 

[A Defiant Goose]

Legitimately bewildered by what the heck that RTP call was even supposed to be. Like, what? Were they hoping to just gift Baltimore 15 yards and hope they could knock in a 65 yard FG or something?

They for sure determined they were making that call before the ball was even snapped. Send that ref to congress and start an investigation lol

 

[n1997y]

That was BS roughing and it looked like a backward pass to me

Replay showed it traveled forward not backward.

It may have been a poorly executed attempt at a backwards pass, but it still went forward.

 

[dannydyn]

So if there was no roughing call, would the Ravens still have kept the ball on a "illegal forward pass?"

Don’t believe so. Roughing the passer will override and negate anything that happened after

 

[Brick27]

That was BS roughing and it looked like a backward pass to me

DB Collinsworth quick to support the idea it was and just hummed over that ridiculous roughing call
