[Nick Vermeil]

I watched an entire episode of Big Bang Theory while they sorted that out.

 

[culdeus]

So every fair catch just push the blocker into the catch guy and hope for chaos

 

[renesauz]

tight call. let that go as often as not

 

[ProstheticRGK]

Total penaly yards tonight: 149

 

[Joe Bryant]

Does the receiver signaling for fair catch not have protection?

 

[travdogg]

4 down territory?

 

[culdeus]

Does the receiver signaling for fair catch not have protection?

Apparently not

 

[renesauz]

gotta go for it. Would be a gimme for Philly

 

[FreeBaGeL]

Should've been a walk-in. Another terrible play by Herbert.

 

[SengerCJ]

Analytics say to kick the field goal (I just asked them)

 

[Insein]

Tush push

 

[culdeus]

Dallas fans force a timeout on the road. Lol

 

[Todem]

Good timeout.

Make sure you have the right play here.

 

[dickey moe]

Bet Lamb +335 ($100) Over 99.5 yards.

It's a game of inches.

 

[Insein]

Yea not like they'll need that TO later.

 

[ProstheticRGK]

Kellen Moore had to makes sure and tell 77 to go downfield illegally

 

[Loipz]

2 teams play home games at SoFi and neither have home field advantage. Lol

 

[Insein]

Wow. That was easy.

 

[rockaction]

Why do they keep showing that lone fan wearing the #10 shirt? Is she the only L.A. fan in the building?

Cuz she’s a tiktok meme waiting to happen. interesting for 8 seconds

 

[Todem]

It’s hillarious.

 

[Runkle]

Does the receiver signaling for fair catch not have protection?

Apparently not

Wasn't touched by the other team, only by his own team. That's allowed.

 

[TheWinz]

Ekeler has 18 touches ATM. LAC will win!

 

[Todem]

Why do they keep showing that lone fan wearing the #10 shirt? Is she the only L.A. fan in the building?

Probably.

 

[Joe Bryant]

So you can just blow up a guy signaling for fair catch? I did not know that.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Analytics say to kick the field goal (I just asked them)

Haha, but this is where game situation matters. Going for it there was definitely the right move (even if they had failed). 4th and goal at 1/2 -yard line with 7 minutes left and down 7. Yep, you go for it there (unless you're Josh McDaniels lol).

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

Is it bad that I don’t even care about the game and I just want to to be over so I can go to bed?

Let’s see how the Cowboys figure out a way to lose in heartbreaking fashion.

I’m getting old.

 

[Insein]

So you can just blow up a guy signaling for fair catch? I did not know that.

As long as you push his own teammate into him.

 

[renesauz]

defender didnt blow him up though...his own player did (sort of)

 

[Todem]

Oh she definitely had an 8 ball tonight.

 

[Joe Bryant]

Wow. I did not know that.

 

[renesauz]

same thing on kicks/punts.....it isn't roughing if its the blocker who gets knocked into the punter

 

[travdogg]

Oh she definitely had an 8 ball tonight.

Probably not just tonight

 

[Insein]

That's pretty impressive to false start when you just get into your stance.

 

[Truebluey]

Kellen Moore trying to hug Staley, but Staley was having none of it.

 

[SoBeDad]

Does the receiver signaling for fair catch not have proprotection

Not only that, it seems like gunners are getting closer to the receivers than I remember in the past. There is no halo anymore.

Fair catch - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

Penalties[edit]​

If a member of the kicking team interferes with a fair catch attempt after the receiver gives a proper signal, the kicking team is penalized 15 yards from the spot of the foul, and a fair catch is awarded even if the ball is not caught. In the NFL, the receiving team has the option to attempt a fair catch kick from the location where the ball is spotted after the penalty is assessed.

 

[Todem]

This is ridiculous. Constant flags.

Again….Chargers might be the dumbest team I have ever seen.

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

somebody’s going to tell McCarthy that he needs a new play sheet next week right? He’s been showing the entire nation the extra large font all night long.

 

[Truebluey]

Maybe they got new flags as presents and they want to show off?

 

[dickey moe]

What's this ref always smiling about?

 

[culdeus]

Still dumb. Was pushed into by the other team.

 

[renesauz]

dangit guys, cant hold on 3rd and long

 

[elitzer]

where is the holding replay

 

[travdogg]

7 incompletions by Dak, all intended for Gallup. Maybe he's the problem?

 

[Joe Bryant]

Is Prescott not a team captain?

 

[dickey moe]

BURN DAT CLOCK

 

[Todem]

incomplete

 

[travdogg]

Not a catch

I've always thought you couldn't block a guy into the returner, but what do I know? I thought he had sort of a halo of impenetrability whereby he couldn't be interfered with.

Funny that nobody in the booth really pressed the issue, including the rules guy.

I'm as surprised as you.
