GDT Texan vs New England (The Bills lamp is lit but please use another thread for Bills venting)

[aristocrat]

I’d like both of these teams to just destroy each other

Darnold and Maye in the Super Bowl that would be nauseating.

Can't say that was a suspicious flag, it was a correct flag. Pre-snap penalties are killers.

but I hate those rules that have zero impact on the play.

I hate the NFL. I became a fan in 1999 and it’s been nothing but chiefs and patriots since then. Why is the nfl out to get us?

Yep. Lining up a big guy in the backfield can be effective…until he does something dumb.

Let's see if the calls go both ways, Ralonzo.

recency bias and all that but these refs have way too much power over the games. They can literally decide who wins and who loses. That's the problem with football, there are so many rules they can call a penalty whenever they want and justify it as fair game.

I can't.

 

Think back to how the NFL allowed them to get away with enabling Deshaun Watson. They paid for all those hotel rooms, they knew what was going on. 

 

That owner is as classless as Watson. Allowed all of it to happen until Watson wanted out, then they turned on him. Shameful.

Agreed, let the players play unless it’s something egregious.

So their guy can fall on a fumble. Huh.

i like rules that are cut n dried without being subject to a ref/replay official/Roger Goodell/FanDuel's interpretation. Everyone knows what the rules are, it's on the coaches to make sure their guys follow them. Two men moving is easy. Jamaal Charles lining up in the locker room seems to be subjective however.

Early returns say yes on that PF face mask the other way. That was also correct.

[Governor]

2nd half of last week’s Steeler  game was the best DL play I’ve ever seen. I wonder if they can make those adjustments today.

 

*that was fast

Two fumbles already, both recovered by the Pats. Unbelievable.
