I feel like this game is in St. Louis or Jax?

i am guessing you are talking about the 3 assist and one solo not awarded to ray lewis. Ray has been robbed all year!!!!

Yes, I was talking about Ray Lewis. I have never owned an IDP player who gets robbed on tackles as much as him. This "jump on the pile" stuff is really nonsense. On that play last night where he rushed Rodgers and deflected the ball at the LOS that was caught by the lineman he didn't get credit for the pass deflection. I saw Nick Barnett roll on the ground and get credit for an assist, even though Rice was already down.

He clearly deflected the pass, and then got the tackle on the GB lineman. I don't know what they gave him.
The NFL Play by Play lists the following:
(9:26) (Shotgun) 12-A.Rodgers pass short right to 65-M.Tauscher to BLT 10 for -3 yards (52-R.Lewis). Ball tipped at line of scrimmage by BLT #52. Pass intended for GB #87.
So he should have received the pass defended; although, as the pass was caught, it was not deemed as defended.

The bad thing is that I have seen similar plays like that scored with a pd and a tackle. It is the inconsistencies like that which anger me. Also, when I watch some players (fletcher,harris,cushing come to mind) who get very generous assists but last night Lewis has CLEARLY involved on 4-5 plays and got nothing. They weren't pile jumps, they were directly involved with bringing the ball carrier down. I have seen most players get robbed 1-2 times a game but Lewis seems to get robbed 4-5 times every game. It seems that the most notable thing I am seeing is a running back run through the hole and a DT such as Edwards, Gregg, or Ngata will be on the ground but have a hold of his leg. The RB will still be running and gaining yards and Lewis will come up and tackle that player but then the stat guy gives the solo to the DT on the ground and Lewis gets nothing. At least an assist should be awarded but I have seen plays like this scored as a solo for other LB. I am happy that despite all this he is still 2nd in the AFC in solos and 3rd in total tackles. He is also the 9th highest scoring LB in my league.Sorry for the long rant guys!Ozymandias said:
