Texans at Bears (1 Viewer)

[mdawg1]

Maybe Campbell should be starting QB - he has not thrown any interceptions.

 

[MSULions]

Texans always whine this much?

Another screw job from the refs.

 

[MSULions]

Good as Gould. best in the league folks

 

[gigantor]

Good as Gould. best in the league folks

cant make them all unfortunately

 

[Ministry of Pain]

So Cutler ends up getting a concussion, Campbell has looked alright. Gould with a rough miss at this point in the game, could have put them in position to win with another FG, now they still need a TD.

 

[flapgreen]

Gould with some big misses this year.

Considering everything, I am actually feeling good. Houston is as good as it gets in the NFL

Is the location of the ball what's important? The ball was ahead of the LOS.

No. The ball can be anywhere. If any part of the QB's body is behind the LOS at the time of the throw, it's a legal pass.

Nope. Shockingly, the announcers were wrong. Looked it up:

Article 2 Legal Forward Pass. The offensive team may make one forward pass from behind the line during

each down. If the ball, whether in player possession or loose, crosses the line of scrimmage, a forward

pass is not permissible, regardless of whether the ball returns behind the line of scrimmage before the

pass is thrown.

Yeah, I looked it up too. The rulebook contradicts itself. Reading it seems to say that if the ball goes past and then returns, that's definitely an illegal forward pass. If the whole body is forward of the line, it's an illegal forward pass. But the ball and part of the body past the line, part of the body behind it, is an unclear situation.

No contradiction just misapplication. The first rule says if you cross the LOS that cannot return to the right side and Correct the error. 2nd part determines if you have crossed LOS. If never cross LOS first rule never kicks in.

Need at least a couple of first downs here. Let that D rest a little

 

[Ministry of Pain]

These 2 teams not exactly helping the $100/pt for the vets cause today.

Needed to be at least a grand anyway. $100/pt very cheap

Actually, applaud the bears defense. One of the strengths of the Texans is that they keep their offense on the field so the opposing defense has to stay. Nice 3 and out for the bears

 

[Hipple Long Ware & Peete]

Don't be a tool. 2 of 3 and a post is herculean effort in that monsoon.

 

[mdawg1]

where the heck was he throwing it

 

[gigantor]

Campbell doesn't have enough time in to be effective

 

[mdawg1]

That was not a good punt

 

[mdawg1]

Campbell doesn't have enough time in to be effective

true

 

[William Munny]

Awful possession followed by bad punt could give the Texans the chance to put it away.

 

[mdawg1]

I still cannot believe Melton is a defensive tackle. I remember watching at UT

 

[SonnyD]

I still cannot believe Melton is a defensive tackle. I remember watching at UT

A damn good one at that.

 

[mdawg1]

I agree and he was a damn good rb at UT

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Nice containment and wrap up on the kickoff.

 

[ffldrew]

Gotta throw it downfield

 

[flapgreen]

Campbell is hopeless.

 

[twistd]

The Bears TEs really suck. Kellen Davis has no business on an NFL roster.

 

[Billy Bats]

Wow hands of stone.

 

[mdawg1]

Campbell is hopeless.

I would think people in Chicago would make it a toss up Davis or Campbell

 

[ffldrew]

tough crowd

 

[geoff8695]

Campbell is hopeless.

so is Kellen Davis

 

[mdawg1]

tough crowd

I thought Philly was tough but I will have to rethink that now

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Kellen Davis just off his fingertips.

 

[ditka311]

They can cut Davis now. Thanks.

 

[MSULions]

Crowd boos Kellen Davis as he walks off after landing on his head trying to catch a horribly thrown duck by Campbell. Stay classy Chicago.

 

[flapgreen]

GO KELLEN!!!

 

[ffldrew]

No time out uh?

 

[Ignoramus]

The Bears are working those 'shaches.

 

[MSULions]

odds this ends on a Campbell INT?

 

[geoff8695]

Decent field position - not over yet...

 

[Ignoramus]

Didn't Foater have 100 yards at the half? Feels like he's got to be well under that by now.

 

[JaxBill]

So what's the spread for next week's Jags-Texans? 17?

 

[flapgreen]

What's up with the forum? Can't post jack.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

odds this ends on a Campbell INT?

35%

 

[flapgreen]

Wow Campbell is a moron.

 

[ffldrew]

Campbell still gunshy from his Raider days

 

[Billy Bats]

It's 2012, they haven't come up with a better way to spot a punt out of bounds other than a back judge guessing where he thinks it went out?

I said this years ago, why can't they put a chip in the ball, and line the field with sensors to determine these kinds of things?

 

[Slapdash]

Campbell doesn't deserve to be on a NFL roster.

 

[flapgreen]

Ugh I hope Cutler isn't out long. This is terrible.

 

[dgreen]

odds this ends on a Campbell INT?

odd this ends on a Campbell pass short of the first down marker?

 

[ditka311]

Captain Checkdown to the rescue!

 

[The Kansas Comet]

During the 2 minute warning I hope Lovie tells Campbell to throw more than 2 yards downfield.
