NFL GAME DAY DISCUSSION Week 13 Other Games Thread

[Foxypats]

Well Raiders are bad, I just thought they would be more competitive than what they should today.

I would’ve gone for it instead of kicking that field goal if I’m Chargers HC.

 

[sambam94]

refs...........

 

[XLIX]

That was a bad call. The defender had position. And how does that not get reviewed??

 

[Doctor DDS]

Can't believe the ending of the Chargers game. PI rule needs to be changed.

 

[jah]

After the Chargers FG I said "yes, an overtime game to tide me over before the Pats" and went to take a piss. I come out of the bathroom and the Broncos are lining up for a 53 yarder. What the ****.

yup. That was what I thought. Lol chargers.

Congratulations to the Broncos on your super bowl win!!


Oh wait.... you’re just 4 and 8. lol.
Never seen a team celebrate a 4th win so much In my life.

 

[luuked]

Pretty weak flag on a what was essentially a hail mary-esque situation.

 

[Satchboogie3]

Once again the Chargers find a way to lose a game. I didn't like the call, but this is what happens when you don't go for it on 4th and inches and settle for a tying FG in a must win game...

that’s why the pats should be 2.5x happier - Gronk

Pretty boneheaded play by the DB. Contact was obvious.

I wish PI was capped at 15 yards though, like the college rule

And if they'd gone for it and failed, the screaming would be about why they didn't kick the field goal. Binary choices made by fans are never wrong that way.

No way because then in this situation he would’ve just deliberately tackled him before the ball even came down.

 

[Doctor DDS]

The refs normally apply a different standard on Hail Mary type plays. Chris Hogan getting wiped out at the end of the Super Bowl did not create any type of controversy and it was much more egregious than this play.

They should have two level of penalty like the running into and roughing the kicker. If its ticky tack PI its 15yd, if its blatant PI its spot foul

 

[fnordcircle]

I can't believe people think kicking the FG to tie was the wrong call.

 

[PP2]

Was it the coaches fault the players were abandoning their assignments, making the wrong read & so on?

You can coach until you're blue in the face but again if a player abandons his task, which happen often today. That's on the player. Again they played the option like they never seen it but how often do we see teams do stupid **** on the field after a week of prep.

I'm just saying they didn't ignore Baltys running game during the week & in some phases were bad today.

We'll never know. We can only reason things through- and I'm more inclined to pin this on Salah than anything else.

If we were talking about a middle-of-the-pack team, or a defense full of rookies or 2nd year players, I would concede to your point, but we're talking about the 2nd best ranked defense that's full of veterans.

The good thing, though- is that they did settle down in the 2nd half and allowed only 3 points by the Ravens.

Lots of good things to take from this game.

That would open up a whole ‘nother can o’ worms. It would be a disaster.
