All plays need to be reviewable. The LOS should be considered a boundary. That was a clear Offside missed and would have been a first down. How refs missed it is unreal, but coaches should be able to challenge. It's an obvious missed call. That is the point of replay.

I thought you were talking about the Cousins play. It was third down.

Clear OPI. It's just not fair game for defense. They don't call obvious holding on pass rushers and they let OPI go all the time. They have gotten better at calling pick plays but still let WRs push off.

You cant be serious that you don't know why???? Incomplete pass stops the clock. Going to the ground lets you burn clock or force them to take a timeout.

Seattle is decimated by injuries. They are a shell of themselves

That is a 10 sec run off.

Yup. Basic concepts.

Stupid to not take timeout there. Wasted 30 seconds of clock before the punt. Always use your timeouts on defense. You can clock it or use the boundary on offense. NFL coaches should have an assistant who just manages the clock.

Edmunds crapped the bed again, but Frazier or McD(whoever was calling the D) choked again. They let up on pressure and played Hopkins in single coverage too often.

Milano has always been an overachiever who is not big enough to be an elite LB. He is fine if he is the third best LB. They need a major upgrade at OLB. If it were me, I would move Edmunds to OLB and find a real MLB. The kid just doesn't make plays at MLB like the truly elite ones. Can he get better? Maybe but we have been saying that for 33 games now. If they are still committed to Edmunds at MLB which I suspect they are, then an OLB has to be top priority in the draft.

McDermott Frazier Daboll The loss is squarely on the coaches. Up 16 with 20 minutes to play and they played prevent. They get a huge Hughes sack and they drop 25 yards on 3rd and 18. Daboll went run heavy formations and then threw the ball to Lee Smith, DiMarco, and Williams. I have no issue with trying to run the ball. It was working. But why so few targets to Beasley. Daboll made too many week to week changes. No identity to the offense all year. And after Watt showed he could be effective, he gave Ford no help. We were outcoached, plain and simple.

Yes it was better. Center play was league worst last year and this year it was solidly above average. Not top 5 like Morse was paid but significant upgrade. LG was significantly better. LT was the same. Dawkins is nowhere near an elite LT but he is good enough. RG play was up and down. Feliciano started well but faded terribly down the stretch. Pass blocking was awful against Pats and Texans. RT play was no better than last year. Mills was a bottom 10 player perhaps one of the worst in pass protection but adequate run blocker. Nsekhe/Ford were no better. It will be an interesting off-season. Dawkins has no leverage for a holdout but doesn't mean he won't. He is a starting LT and may want an extension prior to his last year of contract. Spain did not do enough to get a long term big deal from teams so he may be a good guy to sign on a 2-3 year deal. But I would let him walk, move Ford to LG, and sign a better pass blocking RT in free agency.

Agree it makes no sense to catch it, if there is no intent to return it. But guys bring it out from deep in the endzone so you can't fault the refs for keeping the play alive. It was clear he was not returning the ball. They will issue a clarification on what the returner must do to avoid this happening again.

No rule change. They will just reinforce that if the returner catches the ball, he will need to take a knee or take the ball out of the endzone.

Jimmy Johnson is drunk. His eyes are bloodshot

Wow. Did u just see that LB play. Wish Edmunds could have done that on 2 pt conversion

Let’s face it, this was a 7-9 team and made the playoffs because of the schedule. Allen is still a work in progress. Whoever is the conservative force on the coaches needs to evolve or go. I fear it is McD and he isn’t going anywhere. His defense choked and his offense doesn’t have enough weapons.

Allen lost it in the end no doubt. He will learn. But the line crapped all over themselves

Thank you for posting the picture. Ford just needs to stand in the guys way. He is clearly facing the wrong way. It's the correct call.

You not knowing the rules is not my fault

Yes, if they had not ruled he gave himself up...which he did, then it would have been a safety not a TD.

Yes, it has nothing to do with whether the defender sees it or not. You can't block toward your endzone. That is the rule.

Actually by rule it was an illegal forward pass.

You sound like an idiot. Why would NFL want Texans over the Bills?
