I think it’s a penalty that is often uncalled (and also often called). We got the love this time. We often don’t. That life as an nfl fan. You win some and you lose some.
the catch was similar to bishop/worthy in the playoffs last year except worthy had 2 hands on the ball for longer.
I'm not sure how the rule is worded, but if the WR and CB have both hands on the ball the moment they are “down”, it should be a catch due to the ball automatically going to the offense.
If the argument is, that Shakir had 2hands on the ball, then hit the ground and doesn’t maintain possession through the ground contact that I get the frustration. He didn’t have his hands on the ball for.long.
A patriot fan would
You just made the same argument...

Otherwise there would have been a 20 minute review on something that nobody could have possibly seen.

I believe that when Belichick "found him" Tom Brady was sitting on a couch mentally exhausted from watching the first 5 rounds of the draft. When Brady left New England and went to Tampa he was clearly never the same without Belichick. He only won 1 Super Bowl in 3 whole years!
This is fun!
In 2001, NE had the 5th ranked Defense in points allowed. Brady threw 18 TDs and 12 INTs for 2843 yards
in 2003, NE had the #1 Defense and Brady threw 23 TDs and 12 INTs for 3600 yards.
He was a 3rd or 4th string QB who got his chance to prove teams wrong in the draft, becoming likely the GOAT QB. But claiming that those first 2 SBs were a product of Brady's greatness makes little sense. It's akin to saying Bill Walsh was a creation of Joe Montana, having a losing record without him. Or that George Seifert was the talent behind Steve Young, as Young never had a winning season without Seifert as his coach--equally as dumb.
Are you still having fun?

Not that it would have a difference given the PI call, but Shakir never had possession ("caught") that pass.

He attached himself to Parcells for a few years then got the Patriots job where he had amazing success as a coach when Tom Brady played quarterback. All I'm saying is I think Belichick coached the Pats for 24 seasons and Brady was QB for 19 of them. I believe all 19 of those seasons were winning records. There were 5 seasons he coached without Brady and 4 of those years were losing records. You can draw whatever conclusion you want and I'm fine with that. I'll just say it again...in my opinion Brady>Belichick by a ton.
where was Brady when Belichick found him?

And then somehow magically with Testaverde still as his QB the very next year he turned the #1 defense into the #20 defense and posted a 5-11 record. Oh yeah, then he got fired.

I think TT was out for the season....home and collecting checks.
he was cleared to play by week 7 that year. was Herbert's backup.

A nerve block makes sense, however, I have to ask, wouldn't a nerve block that high make quite a bit of that side of the thoracic area and abdomen numb? Also, which nerve are they targeting for this?
Intercostal nerve blocks, not cutaneous nerves. Just the nerves serving that rib, generally.
Don't recall seeing an injury listed for Watt......

Yeah, I didn't bring that up. You just did.
I also didn't say I was fully on board with you.
I just stand by what I posted and what I mean for this year.
I don't need something to be so different from year to year to give a reason of why it is different from last year as opposed to now.
It just is different...and he is, and I think it is a combination of both things I brought up.
These are humans, not computers. It isn't always going to be the same just because it looks sort of the same.
You mentioned the inability of the WRs to get open (ie separation). Others have also brought up the WRs as a reason the numbers are starkly different from last year. But the WRs aren't materially different from last year, so it's not clear how this would now be a significant factor as to why Josh's sack and pressure numbers are up, despite him having career highs in accuracy (bad throw %, on target% and drop%).
I agree sacks are the result of several variables, but the difference in this year's WR performance and last year's doesn't seem to be a significant one.

* sues. Dang spell check
Sue the provider? How did that go for Tyrod?
Sue the Steelers? For what? you seem to think he was forced to have a procedure against his will. That would also have to assume that a guy like Watt would NOT do everything legal and possible to be on the field, which is obviously absurd.

WEO, I don't totally disagree with you.
I think the inability of the receivers to get open most times (definitely not all) and the progressions Brady wants Allen to go through have had an detrimental affect* on his sack numbers, as well.
(* Yes, people, I am using it correctly.)
The WRs last year were that much better at getting separation? Which ones?

He knew there was no way out, hence the
come on I tossed him a thumbs up.
Drew Bledsoe wouldn't have a single sack behind this line because of that higher pass protection efficiency! Josh is getting sacked and pressured more this year because he is "a mobile QB"! That's an unfortunate new development. lol.

I'll grant you that. I'm simply saying he coached 10 seasons in the NFL without Brady as his quarterback and 8 of those 10 seasons were losing records.
Brady > Belichick by a ton.
This gets repeated a lot. Take away any HOF QB from their HOF HC and how does that coach fare? Belichick. took a 3-13 Browns team to 11-5 and a playoff appearance with Vinnie Testaverde, Tommy Vardell at RB and Micheal Jackson at WR. He did it by truning the 28th Defense into the #1 Defense in point allowed.
How many SB rings does Reid have without Mahomes?

Hurts the Steelers, which is fine by me.
Also hurts the Dolphins, because more meaningless wins for them will mean worse draft position, I guess?
And also hurts the Patriots, if the Bills win on Sunday, because a motivated week 18 Dolphins team on an impressive late-season run could be formidable with momentum and nothing to lose?
And moreover, hopefully, helps ALL players by shining another light on player health and medical treatment, given that we've potentially seen this type of procedure-caused "injury" play out previously (and with MAJOR impact to the player in question: Tyrod Taylor of course)?
9 hours ago, Herc11 said:I HIGHLY doubt this had anything to do with pain killers being administered and "popping" a lung. You wouldn't be putting a local that deep and through the ribs. Locals aren't given that deep and neither are opioids or nsaids.
Maybe he had a pleural effusion and they were doing a thoracentesis. That very well could have done it, and it happens more frequently than you would imagine.
Tyrod was getting a thoracic nerve block, got a pneumothorax, which quickly and spontaneously resolves in most such cases. The main impact that injury had was forcing the Chargers to come to grips with the reality that TT had no business being their starter when they had just drafted Herbert. TT is still starting games in the NFL.
Pleural effusions are far more significant and secondary typically to a serious primary pulmonary or secondary abdominal process. Pro athletes typically aren't walking around with these and even if he had one there's no chance an effusion would be drained outside of a hospital--in an NFL training room especially.
No matter what adjunnt imaging a provider uses to inject local to do a thoracic nerve block, the risk of pneumothorax is never zero.

I agree. I've long said that in the NFL especially that players (QB's specifically) make coaches. Look no further than Bill Belichick who has done so much damage to his reputation as a great coach by hanging around the Pats after Brady left. Belichick's record as a head coach with Brady 249-75 without 83-104. In the NFL coaches that have great QB's can win in spite of themselves.
BB was a great defensive coordinator before he got to the Patriots. His 1st SB in NE wasn't about Brady but really about great coaching.

What if the Bills had an awful OL and college level defense? They would be.....well.....the Bengals. Top 5 worst then.
So your argument is the because the Bengals have the worst Defense THIS YEAR, the wonership is the worst?
The ownership paid their franchise QB and not one but two WR1s---and paid Hendricks at least for another year. This ownership has seen 2 HCs over 23 seasons. This ownership has put back to back teams in the AFCC game in the past 5 years (winning one). Still want to compare to the Bills?
Over the same 20+ years, the Jets ownerships has hired 7HCs, burned through at least 11 starting QBs (including dumping 2 1st round QB picks that went on to succeed elsewhere) and have not played in a playoff game in 15 years.
The Browns have famously had 10 HCs over the same 23 year period and at least 18 QBs have started games for them. At one point the Browns ownership went though 4 HC's in 6 seasons before hiring the worst professional sports coach in sports history: Hue Jackson. And after Hue went 1-15, did they fire him? Of course not. Did they fire him when he went 0-16 the following year? Not a chance.
You could not be more wrong on this.

How far above average was Brady when he was drafted? How about when Belichick called him off the bench?
And why don't you respond the the facts surrounding Brady's performance the first 2 SB wins? Was "Brady>Belichick by a ton" back then too?
this is also true. credit to BB for creating a team that thrived despite Brady's fairly limited output back then.
