He wasn't even gunning for the big hit, one guy hit him clean and got shoulder in the head from the other. An unfortunate accident, not of any malice.
This. The game is seriously being tarnished this year. Just because there is a big hit doesn't mean it's illegal. Screw you, refs. It's been said plenty of times before, but time for me to chime in: Goodell is systemically freaking this game up and before long, it won't be worth watching. **********Automerged Doublepost********** And then Simms and the other guy chime in 'Now you see the reason why there are all these new rules.' It was a legal freaking hit, rods. You guys said it yourself three minutes ago. Maybe they need to start using instant replay for these types of penalties.
They're gonna need a second set of flags for the second half. The ones they are using now are gonna have far too many green stains on them by the end of the first half to see them on the ground.
And Nick Cole is the fattest tub of crap in the league. **********Automerged Doublepost********** Phil Simms: 'Why blitz? Why blitz with 11 seconds to go?' Errr.... maybe to force Manning into a pass before he is completely ready for it? To force a freaking incomplete pass like what just happened???
How the heck was that unneccesary roughness? So what are we outlawing gang tackling? Some guys on CBS are defending the flag. WTF? what a load of crap, if a fine is handed down he should appeal it.
That flag changed the whole momentum of the game as well. **********Automerged Doublepost********** How ironic, the Colts have Javarris James on their team. I had no idea.
To the Colts credit, we started off white hot and Manning's ability to keep a drive going FOREVER killed a little of the momentum before that. But it sure as hell didn't help.
Andy Reid is now officially the worst challenger in the history of challenging. Didn't he hear Phil Simms say he should challenge? What more proof do you need that you should tuck that flag back in your pocket?
