***MNF - Raiders at Lions*** (-8.0/46.0) (1 Viewer)

I guess I should revisit my opinion that the horse-collar tackle rule is garbage. The weak rule; the improper enforcement; etc.

Actually, I'm not going to bother. I'll just say, how many times do we see a HC penalty? A couple times per week, right? When is the last time you've seen an injury from it? 2007?

 

[jon_mx]

What a throw to LaPorta

That was sweet. Goff completely trusted LaPorta to be in that small passing lane and made it look easy.

 

[rockaction]

Unreal Adams has a donut.

I can see Adams with a donut. I can't see Adams AND Meyers with a donut. That's on the QB. That sucks.

You're still wrong.

i couldn't live without this man's insight
Schefter is almost as bad as the Booth Refs

Given that it was banned as of 2006, this sounds like an endorsement of the rule.

Are you saying the Raiders should try throwing to a WR?

Jimmy G halftime stats: 3-8 31 Yards 0 TDs 1 INT

 

[travdogg]

Forget fantasy, Sam LaPorta is probably a top-5 NFL TE already.

This is looking like an amazing TE class so far. Kincaid looks great too (leading the league in catch %) and tied to Josh Allen.

 

[RenegadeRoy]

McDaniels with the absolutely gutless call before halftime. Scared to expose Jimmy G's lack of an arm any further.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Spoiler: NCAYFFT

started the night with a 36% win probability

Goff + Gibbs + LaPorta

now at 55%

They had no timeouts. I would have kneeled down.

That was also a problem.

 

[rockaction]

I hate when franchises move and use their throwbacks from the other city.

Rubs me totally wrong.

Think Carolina in the NHL. As a former Whalers fan from Hartford, their nostalgia trip just sucks. I want to kick them when they do that. Same living owners. All living greed.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

The Ravens should do a former franchise throwback like the Titans
And wear the Cleveland Browns uniforms where they originally came from

Not sure what you mean...

My point is that these tackles still happen with regularity, but the injuries do not correlate.

Is that good?

 

[Dez]

LaPorta

LaPorta !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But he has reliable sources and people trust him with information

But they likely occurred far more before they were banned, right? I'm indifferent to the rule myself.

Excellent !

I’m 5ish points off clawing back 25ish points in my standard re-draft league. Thanks Sam and Sun God keep up the good work !!

 

[TheAristocrat]

Campbell should pull Johnson aside in the locker room and let him know the double jet sweep, triple flea flicker isn't the play on the 12.

I loved seeing the Oilers throwbacks. It gave me a chance to talk to my 8yo about Warren Moon and that era.

Funny, but will not happen. Cleveland retained the history and colors. Let them wear Colts unis

 

[rockaction]

Are you saying the Raiders should try throwing to a WR?

If they move the ball running the football, I have no problem with that. I can't intellectually argue any differently.

Which they did on that last drive. So we'll see.

 

[elitzer]

if they are not going to use adams then trade him already

 

[rockaction]

But really, that QB line is inexcusable. It's not like you can take away the entire passing game.

Would be super fun vs the Browns though.

That particular horsecollar was garbage. Spillane didn’t take him to the ground, he just spun him around.

They need to give that degrees, like they do roughing or running into the kicker, only it should be 0 penalty or 15.

 

[Da Guru]

One adjustment I would make at half.

I would make sure at least one player blocks Max Crosby on run plays. How can they leave him untouched is beyond me.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Do that 8 more times please.

 

[IHEARTFF]

0 yards to WR in the 1st half wow

 

[jon_mx]

A sack? I forgot what that was like.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

9 points for Adams. Will I get it?

 

[jon_mx]

Gibbs....that was sweet

 

[Ilov80s]

Gibbs....that was sweet

That's what we are looking for

 

[rockaction]

9 points for Adams. Will I get it?

I'm going to not go out on a limb and say unless you get a touchdown, you're not sniffing that score.

I need something similar, so that isn't out of animus.

 

[jon_mx]

Goff, Goff, Goff..

 

[Dez]

There's the old Goff

 

[Ilov80s]

Well that was a gift

 

[RenegadeRoy]

Goff gonna Goff.

 

[ignatiusjreilly]

9 points for Adams. Will I get it?

I came into tonight up 30 with my Davate to his ARSB/SLP. I’m now up 3 and projected to lose

 

[TheAristocrat]

Good lord

 

[travdogg]

That may have been Goff's worst throw of the season

 

[rockaction]

Oh WOW

WOW WOW WOW

That'll turn the game in a heartbeat. That was a killer for Detroit. They were about to salt the game away.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

But really, that QB line is inexcusable. It's not like you can take away the entire passing game.

On the last 3rd down where Jimmy was sacked, he instantly knew 6 were coming and he had no chance but I find it appalling there wasn't 1 single WR/TE/RB running a route into the middle of the field where everyone vacated. You just drop 2-3 steps and fire immediately

But all the receivers were running up the sidelines and deep routes.
You draw a play up, you have 2 WRs maybe going deeper or up the field and then you should have at least a slot receiver and possibly a RB that should be available for a hot route

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Wow that was a terrible decision.

 

[TartanLion]

FFS Goff.

Well go back out there and stop this momentum turn right now you muppet. Damn man

 

[jon_mx]

That may have been Goff's worst throw of the season

But yet better than his attempt at making a tackle
