They botched the ejection there, botched our fumble recovery, and called a phantom lining up in the neutral zone on us on a Chargers 3rd down (it was a false start). Twice the left tackle moved early and Hughes moved early because of it. Once they didn't call it at all, once they called the penalty on Hughes when it wasn't even close that the LT moved early. Both times were blatant. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked the announcers assessment of it being called on Hughes, "um, no." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putting aside my opinion...objectively, you broke the rules. I agree but it can be fixed with a title such as Taiwan Jones - Injury Updates? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocbillsfan1 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Pretty ticky tacky don’t you think mods. We all know what this thread is about. Also hope he is ok. I thought the player should have been ejected under the new rules he lowered his head and lead with his helmet for no reason. Especially with a guy with his helmet off. If he doesn’t lower his head he would have saw he had no helmet. This could have been fatal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick the Greek Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 4 hours ago, Kelly the Dog said: How did the officials not all blow their whistles as soon as his helmet came off and he started running? The officials were abysmal in this game. Not at all a reason we lost but they were terrible. I don’t think it would have mattered if they blew the whistle. It happened so fast, he was gonna get hit. Too bad it was to the head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slipkid Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Horrible play and I hope Taiwan is okay. But did I miss something or was that a great “heads up” play by Taiwan under the circumstances? I’ve been no big fan of Taiwan in the past, but assuming he’s okay, I’ll take him on my team over Vontae Davis any day—can he play CB? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABILLBACKER Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 5 hours ago, JimKellyTryouts said: He was listed as 'questionable' to return (didn't), so the good news is that he wasn't immediately ruled out - hopefully just a laceration. The ref seemed to be more concerned about where the ball was being spotted than the helmet-less player himself. An ejection could have and most certainly should have happened... Today's game was officiated by children. Mistakes were made all over the place. Each year it gets a little worse. Whatever happened to the 1 yard halo around a punt returner? The NFL pretends to be all safety conscious when it comes to kickoff returns and yet on a punt return you can hammer the guy at full speed while you're looking up in the air? A player loses his helmet, gets hit in the head by another helmet and no ejection. The NFL simply picks and chooses its rules from week to week and as it pleases.

Did not lose because of them, but they were AWFUL. It looked like they were all timid and/or had no clue what was going on sometimes. The bolded penalty was on Jerry Hughes. It was a bad call because it was clearly a false start (knew it before seeing a replay), but after watching it again, I did notice that Hughes had his hand in the dirt in the neutral zone before the snap. But the play should have been blown dead due to a false start. It wasnt caused by Hughes jumping early and creating a reaction by the LT. Should have been offsetting penalties and a replay of the down. They did also blow a false start against Groy that would have blown the play of the first TD dead. And there was a terrible hold called against Mills(? may have been Miller) that negated a very nice run. The officials sucked dog $#!+ today. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since he didn't know if the ref called change of possession, he tried to get it out the end zone. Some posters in the GDT thought he was dumb, but he couldn't possibly know how the ref was going to rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You seem to be suggesting that this was unusual or some type of anomaly. When is an NFL football game not horribly officiated? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh stitch him back up and make him a hockey player assuming no concussion. Still wondering why hitter wasn't kicked out. Blantant helmet to head.. and without a helmet made it more egregious.

No one showed an inclination of reacting to what was happening. They were awful. And the bad calls went both ways. Our first td was on a false start. 25 minutes ago, North Buffalo said: Meh stitch him back up and make him a hockey player assuming no concussion. Still wondering why hitter wasn't kicked out.

You act as if it was nothing then in the next sentence call it a dirty hit then say the guy should be ejected. Hockey fans are so dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't you had enough with Simpson, Spiller, Manuel, McCarron, Graham? The only other "Taiwan" I know of in sports uses the nickname "Chinese Taipei" so maybe we can call him "CT" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because the guy on the receiving end wasn’t seriously injured doesn’t mean the play isn’t dirty and ejection worthy. Note: I don’t know anything about the extent of the Taiwan Jones injury, just speaking in general terms here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
