Chargers at Colts Game Day Thread | Post Game Reaction (Wk 16)

It’s because the Dolphins lost this past weekend which kept the Raiders playoff chances alive.

If that is so, then every team that has managed to beat us this year is, at the least, a playoff hopeful, this late in the season...

I had rumph down for two sacks on the drive where he got credit for the one, I’m not sure how he didn’t get credit for the first one…

He unfortunately didn’t finish so Morgan Fox got the sack instead.

I wish they’d make any play or call reviewable by challenge. According to this: https://sports.nbcsports.com/2022/02...f%20a%20player

it says any play involving the sideline is able to be challenged (Keenan Allen out of bounds BS call)

Then it also mentions that a challenge can NOT be made involving the spot of ball (Colts challenge by Jeff Saturday when he was clearly short of the first down marker) and not only did they review it they reversed it. Totally bogus.

Do the refs pick and choose what rules they choose to enforce or allow? The contradictions of their own rules is idiotic.

That article is wrong about being able to challenge the spot of the ball.

You said both in your quote, which was a response to Wu talking about Staley and Lombardi in his original post. Unless that was a typo.

I was only originally commenting on the second half of wu’s comment regarding Lombardi in my reply. I just added my thoughts on the first part of wu’s comment in the 2nd paragraph to you in post 1017

That article is wrong about being able to challenge the spot of the ball.

I know I've heard a ref say, on numerous occasions, "<team> is challenging the ruling that the runner was stopped short of the 'line to gain'."

That's challenging the spot of the ball.

That’s bullshit! The whistle should’ve blown and the O’lineman grabbing rumph from behind flagged, foles wasn’t going anywhere, they want these guys to not be two rough on the QBs then blow the fucking whistle! Whatever happened to “in the grasp” ?

…so instead foles takes a needless shot from fox who gets rewarded with a bullshit sack? Something wrong with that…

The problem is, once a play is called dead, most players stop playing. You can run with the ball forever if no one is chasing you.

[Formula 21]

if you look at the play design on Herbert's interception, both KA and everett ran into the same window in the zone coverage, how the fuck are you supposed to clear out space when EVERYONE is running a 5-7 yard fucking route?!

That’s one of my problems with not-Vince. Spread the receivers out. Spread the defenders out. Make the D cover the whole field.

[NashBolt]

Hey, don’t knock some good yoga lol.

That's what I thought also. Some cat/cow keeps my lower back pain in check.

[Cdn Bolt]

I think we did fine stopping the run.

We gave up 5 ypr . And to a backup. That is not fine

[nomad1946]

I guess our guys are running the wrong fucking route every fucking game all the damn time

Do you have any proof that every play there are two players in the same location or are you just talking out your butt as usual?

OK...watched every angle on the Derwin hit...I see why they called it, but the ejection is ridiculous...it may in fact be a rule the refs had to follow, but I don't like it. And he should be fined lightly or not at all...he simply missed. He was obviously aiming for shoulder, and at the last minute, he even tries to lean his helmet in to avoid helmet to helmet, and have the impact happen on the shoulder/side, where he was aiming....a mistake, but not a dirty play.

Right after the hit, he was tapping his shoulder, to show the refs that he was aiming at the receiver's shoulder.
