**Monday Night Football - Eagles 6-2 at Packers 5-2-1**(-1, 46) 8:15 (14 Viewers)

[Hot Sauce Guy]

I wouldn’t mind just one pass to AJB. They know they can do that, right? I checked the rules. Looks like they’re in the clear.

 

[Snotbubbles]

What’s Patullo gonna call on this drive? Three runs in a row to eat some clock?

If I'm running the Eagles, he's one and done as the OC. Too much talent to be this average on offense.

 

[renesauz]

why did Gipson pick that up?

No reason not to. Once the ball is touched by the punting team, the ball can only be advanced. If he fumbled and GB recovered and ran for a TD, it would be irrelevant, the ball would go to Philly where GB touched it.

So he makes a deliberate football move backwards into the end zone like he did and it's copasetic?

I want to look that up.

he's right....I forgot that nuance you so rarely see it happen

 

[DA RAIDERS]

Melton making a name for himself!

 

[Insein]

2 runs

 

[travdogg]

Thing is, this super conservative run heavy approach, also hurts Barkley too.

SECTION 5 - SAFETY​

ARTICLE 1. SAFETY

It is a Safety:

1. when the offense commits a foul behind its own goal line and the defense elects to enforce the penalty at that spot (see also 14-2-2-b); or
2. when an impetus by a team sends the ball behind its own goal line, and the ball is dead in the end zone in its possession or the ball is out of bounds behind the goal line.

 

[Insein]

Well the 3rd play was good

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Ohai Saquan!

 

[Ministry of Pain]

2 runs

They're trying to work the clock with a lead in the 4th Quarter

 

[renesauz]

there we go. finally a big play

[DA RAIDERS]

At this point I might need OT to get 5 points out of 26 and 8 COMBINED

 

[ChicoCat]

SKINNY BATMAN!!!!!!

 

[fred_1_15301]

Barkley just won the game I think

 

[renesauz]

happy now folks?

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Game
Over.

 

[Insein]

Dagger Jr

 

[BladeRunner]

game over

 

[Snotbubbles]

BOOM!

 

[DA RAIDERS]

Oh snap!

 

[ProstheticRGK]

Boom!

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Slim Reaper for the win

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

happy now folks?

No because I needed AJB to get that TD.

 

[BladeRunner]

good play by Smith.

 

[ShamrockPride]

Guessing this one's over at 10-0.

 

[DA RAIDERS]

game over

10:35 left. You’re probably right.

 

[Snotbubbles]

Now it's time for Love to force a throw and get picked.

 

[unckeyherb]

That catch just put me over 200. the first time in my league’s 25 year history.

No, that's wrong. Its a dead ball that can only be advanced by the return team. A Safety is impossible, a turnover is impossible. Its a dead ball for the kicking team, and returnable for the return team.

 

[My_Bench_Scores_More]

Of course Smith gets the End Zone target. Those of you who have him, yay! But it's just salt in the wounds for those of us with Brown.

 

[Terpman22]

Devonta just floated on that one.
Go Birds!

 

[fred_1_15301]

Damn if THAT play put you over 200, who else do you have? Yeesh.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

2 plays, 77 yards. Imagine if they’d played like this the 1st 3 quarters.

 

[ShamrockPride]

I wouldn’t mind just one pass to AJB. They know they can do that, right? I checked the rules. Looks like they’re in the clear.

Former star WRs having really bizarre years. AJ, DK. Even with mid-tier QB play you'd think they could do better than this.

 

[travdogg]

Eagles should throw about 5 of those a game. No reason not to.

dude....wrong rule. when kicking team touches the ball first it's technically a foul. the receiving team can do anything with it from there and if they dont like the result can elect to accept the penalty....which is a dead ball where the kicking team touched it. the only caveat to the rule is it can be over-ridden by a personal foul. Gipson could pick it up dance back into the end zone and get tackled, or fumble it and turn it over at the 5...wouldnt matter, Eagles would have kept the ball where the kicking team touched it. It is absolutely the rule...you just almost never see it, like the elusive drop kick

 

[My_Bench_Scores_More]

happy now folks?

Nope!

 

[Kuz]

I can't wait for next week when the Lions pound the Eagles. Until they get AJ Brown involved the Eagles are just an average team.. Sorry!

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Of course Smith gets the End Zone target. Those of you who have him, yay! But it's just salt in the wounds for those of us with Brown.

I have him in a league I’m already up 200-130, so totally irrelevant.

In the league I only have AJB I’m up 3 and my opponent has Doubs.

 

[DA RAIDERS]

M0aR offense.

 

[renesauz]

I can't wait for next week when the Lions pound the Eagles. Until they get AJ Brown involved the Eagles are just an average team.. Sorry!

guess we'll find out Sunday night!

 

[DA RAIDERS]

Melton!

 

[Ministry of Pain]

I can't wait for next week when the Lions pound the Eagles. Until they get AJ Brown involved the Eagles are just an average team.. Sorry!

The NFC is loaded and these two teams were 2nd and 3rd coming into tonight
Eagles won a Super Bowl last year, appeared in 2 of the last 3 Super Bowls and currently are closing in on a 7-2 record to kick off the 2025 season
But yeah the Eagles are just average while they are pitching a shutout tonight

I've got this week wrapped up... I had it wrapped up yesterday. So it's also irrelevant to my week. But I still want to put points up. It can make a difference in my league's standings.

 

[Insein]

Of course GB looks their best after they're desperate.

 

[DA RAIDERS]

Relax everyone. That catch by 8 put me in the lead. I know yall care

 

[fred_1_15301]

tick tock tick tock tick tock. Come on hurry up here!

 

[Kuz]

Do you really believe you can hang with the Lions with the brutal offense you showed today.. I'll hang up and listen

 

[renesauz]

dont get too soft here D
