Eagles vs Packers - TNF - Week 4 (1 Viewer)

I am not confident this game will be around in 15-20 years played like this.......I never let my own son sniff a football field (tackle). And I know many parents who did the same. knowing what we know about CTE, neck and head injuries....why would you?

I say....go back to leather helmets. That will stop the missile launching that is still way to prevalent in the game. Tackling will be pure again. Not this insane game we have today with leading with the head.

GB deserved to lose so stupid they had 1st and goal at the 1 earlier 0 runs and now they got to the 2 yard line 2 timeouts left just ran the ball for good yardage could ran it right in for the TD probably but nope idiotic passing over and over reminded me of the Browns game.

yup...The Patriots are so good running in that situation. Spread them out and run it

Good game Eagles...poor effort by GB on the last goal line drive and not a great place to throw that pass there.

Hopefully Davante rests and gets past that tow injury quick.

And definitely hope Maddox and Williams are ok.

 
great win, but that injury report after this game is going to be like 10 pages for the Eagles. would be great to have an early bye this year

After letting the last 2 stand could they really go back and overturn that one.......those refs couldn't wait to get off that field on that one.

Hard to say because, as everyone worried about before the year, there's really no way to define what's "bad enough".

I mean, it was clear and obvious PI.  He definitely hit him in the back and wrapped his arms around him before the ball got there.  Certainly qualifies as "clear and obvious".  But he didn't hit him that hard or that early.  So it's obvious PI, but not a particularly bad one.  Who the hell knows if that means you overturn it or not because they just seem to play it by ear.

If you go to leather helmets people die. That’s not happening.

I'm just keeping it real, I had the Eagles+4 in my league pool(One out of 12 owners I might add) so I'm happy but that was pass interference.

Agree, the pass they gave on the last 2 definitely muddied the water and makes the rule even more confusing........but I'll take it.

It directly affected the outcome of the came. I thought maybe that's what they were going for.  :shrug:
