    Fake Slide should be 15 yard penalty

    There was no fake slide by Allen, but there is a point, the defender is often in a lose-lose situation when attempting to takle a QB.

    When Josh slowed, for sure the defenders processed "ok, he MAY slide", in that case, I could not takle him.

    This decision could lead to a split-second indecision and Josh is gone.

    I would call a late-hit on the QB only if it is blatant.

    In my opinion the one called on Prescott on 3&2 must be a no-call, the one on Josh is borderline.

     

    Mine is a naive opinion for a variety of reasons, but I think the whole 'QB slide' thing is nonsense anyway. If you come out to play on the battlefield, you should be fair game for defenders. Nobody is forcing you to cross the line of scrimmage.

    Tony Romo

    I absolutely love Romo. It might be cos I'm overseas and he doesn't grate so much. But I find him really insightful. Yes, he gets a bit excited and can be overly positive. But in our sports over here all commentators ever do is criticise, and Romo's positivity is a welcome change of pace. His chemistry with Jim Nantz is great and clearly genuine, IMO. I always like it when he's on our games. Plus, he saw us taking the number two seed when we had a 5% chance. He's been there, done it, isn't up his own a-hole and genuinely loves the sport he's a part of.

    This is by far JA's biggest game to date. He finally gets KC at home with the fans, revenge, and weather to his advantage. Everybody wanted them coming into our house. Now, we have that opportunity. 

     

    We have no excuses left if we let them come in and win.

     

    well, we might have a *couple* of excuses, if we have no linebackers fit. <shrug>

    Do we have a kicker problem?

    Bass is a major issue. But there are ways to get around an erratic kicker. Score TDs. 

     

    Like last night. No punter. Fine, only punt once the whole second half. 

     

    But I'm being disingenuous. FGs are vital in playoffs.

    Why are we so quick to turn on players and coaches? Bass deserves respect.

    Yes, that’s it; Josh did a Jedi mind trick and made the defenders think he was gonna slide. More like those defenders didn’t wanna get trucked by a freight train with a full head of steam coming at them on a bitter cold evening. GTFOH with this crap already. 

     

    This made me laugh. But that IS sort of the point of a fake. It wasn't a fake, not close. But justsayin.

    Sorry to say... But Diggs is done.

    He's been invisible for weeks.  Today I saw him catch a ball and drop to the ground before getting touched, without effort for YAC. Unless he is secretly injured I think it's time to really evaluate his effectiveness and effort.
