I don't want to see anybody get hurt.
If the 49ers win or lose I want it to be against that teams best.

I just think it is odd that this trend is occurring.

Could it be dity play or are the 49ers just playing hard?
I know I might be biased but I don't see anything that indicates the 49ers are playing dirty.

It is just an odd occurrence after reading that past article of RBs against the 49ers Defense.

Ya, all four elk were processed before we left Idaho. We had a trailer, filled it with 7 massive coolers and brought it all home.

It's very good. Somewhere between venison and beef.

First time hunting elk? I'm assuming that you saved the ivories?

I moved to Wyoming when I was a kid and got to do a lot of hunting mainly for deer and elk. I definitely prefer elk over beef, but buffalo is better than all of them.

I missed the bit where he punched a guy while he was down after the play, though, or made a late hit on a sliding quarterback.

By one of the most worthless stats the NFL tracks, sure. By stats I have some level of faith in, they're 11th (but 5th in the league overall, and an order of magnitude better than anyone else in the AFC South...)

The jags have a rep of cheap tactics they inherited from their HC, Del Rio. What is this "stat" you have faith in?

By Ian Begley
Joe Namath has ripped Rex Ryan for many things this year.

But, according to a joking Ryan, "nothing has hurt more" than when Broadway Joe cracked on Rex's weight.

The subject arose after Ryan admitted to wearing a Namath jersey during a trip to the mall over the bye week.

Namath, on his regular spot with ESPN New York 1050's "The Michael Kay Show," said, "I'm just stunned that the jersey with No. 12 come in that size."
Ryan laughed off the barb, giving Namath credit for his wit.

Namath has been critical of Ryan all year, saying his team wasn't prepared for their game at Oakland and claiming Ryan was too nice to his players.

"Shoot, hey it doesn't matter," Ryan said when asked about wearing the jersey. "I'm still a huge Joe Namath fan."

He added: "Any fan or any Jets alum is welcome to their opinion. It doesn’t mean I have to like it or agree with it."

Rex Ryan defines love/hate for me. One part of me wants to punch him every time he opens his mouth, another part will always chuckle at everything he says. Fuck the Jets, though.

what late hit on the quarterback? Your own coach said it was clean. Teach your guy how to slide better and he wont get hit when doing his goofy half slide have sideways dive.

Not too mention that wasn't a punch, with the conveniently forgotten other Jaguar that Brown was pulling away from when his hand went down.

Jaguar whining is funny. considering this is pretty much the same Texans team they've seen the last couple of seasons, and a team that had been labeled 'soft' prior to this season, and now that they are actually decent defensively Jacksonville is crying about those big meanies.

Former NFL QB Erik Kramer's son found dead.
The son of a former NFL star quarterback who was playing in his final high school season as a backup passer for one of Southern California's most prominent football programs was found dead on Sunday, sending a high school community into mourning.

According to the Los Angeles Times and a handful of other Southern California sources, 18-year-old Thousand Oaks (Calif.) High senior quarterback Griffen Kramer was found dead on Sunday at the house of a close friend. School officials gave preliminary information that they believe, "his passing was due to alcohol poisoning." The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department also confirmed that it has no reason to believe that there was any criminal activity involved in the teen's passing.

Bull. From Kuharsky's article on this:

After linebacker Clint Session forced a Houston fumble at Reliant Stadium Sunday, he wound up with the ball on the return after two laterals. And after he was tackled out of bounds, Houston left tackle Duane Brown clearly, deliberately, delivered a punch with his left hand to Session’s chest before he got up. (Tania Ganguli of the Times-Union writes about it here.)

Brown’s explanation on Houston’s 1510 The Game radio?

He called the accusation of a punch “outrageous” and made it as if it was merely him catching his balance. Yes, if you lose your balance, you generally close your fist and look for the nearest solar plexus as you attempt to steady yourself.

Brown did get pushed, but looking at the replay I have no problem saying he saw the shove as an opportunity to land a blow before getting up to deal with the shover, who is not identifiable on video.

And that Session offered no objection doesn’t make it OK.

People are not that dumb.

Brown threw a punch. What you do when you’ve thrown a punch that’s on film is say something like, I lost my poise for a second there and it’s a mistake. I’m not proud of it. I’m sorry about it and you can expect I’ll try not to lose my poise again.

If the league doesn’t issue a fine here, it’s a poor call.

The one point where Kuharsky was wrong: apparently some people are that dumb.

There's a middle ground between 'soft' and 'dirty'. If the Texans have chosen to bypass it, that's not my problem. Your lame suggestion that the Jags are just complaining about facing a decent defence is shot down entirely if you look at the number of complaints they raised in the previous few weeks when facing the (at the time) top 3 defences in the league by NFL stats.

And, you know, it's just the defence that plays dirty that they accused of playing dirty.

So you don't have any examples of the Jags playing dirty, particularly this year? Didn't think so.

And the stat I like more than most others is DVOA from Football Outsiders. It's the one that has the best match with what I see on the field, so I tend to put more faith in it than others. Total yards of defence is utterly worthless - the Texans leapt up in pass defence by playing the Jags - did their pass defence really improve? Hell, no. They just played a team with a slow-starting rookie QB and wide receivers who couldn't catch a ball if it was glued to their hands. DVOA adjusts for that. I don't cherry-pick stats (except for comic effect) though - so when DVOA says my team sucks then I'm not going to argue. Right now it has us 5th in the league in defence and around the bottom in offence, which matches up pretty well with reality.

Jags lose and are having a bad season: deal with it. This kind of crap happens every Sunday in the NFL. Thing is: most teams know its part of the game and accept it. There is a reason Sessions didnt make a big deal out of it because he knows it part of the game. Jags come off as a bunch of whiny sore losersn because they have 2 DT's that can not shut their mouth.

Hey, the Texans would have won even without playing dirty. They're the better team for the first time in a while. Good on them. If you think I'm having a problem dealing with how badly the Jags are doing this year, you're missing the point completely.

And your argument is shot down by the same point as your fellow Texans apologists - if the Jaguars have two DTs who can't shut their mouths and whine when they lose, how the hell have we never heard them whining all the way to a 2-5 record?

They whined all last week leading up to the game. Sideofbeef stated how he hated them because they were "arrogant". Yeah that makes a ton of sense. A team whose best record in 10 years is 9-7 is arrogant......

Its all part of the game. Delrio even blew this whole nonsense off stating that it was part of a game against a division rival. Jags will get their chance in November for retribution.

That "punch" was a freaking love tap at best. This was a punch:

Again, the same team has faced physical teams before with no problems and no 'whining'. Physical involves playing hard to to the whistle, not taking cheap shots after it.

See you November 27th. It was a physical game, it happens. Maybe the Jags just took over the NFL's Softest Team label from the Texans.

We've taken shots for 10 years and now that we start having some success people start making wild accusations.
