i just have to shake my head at how many blatant holding calls are ignored on offensive linemen in this league. i mean jesus christ lol

 

[CB3]

The Falcons defense sure is celebrating a ton for a group that is getting skull fucked

 

[Deleted member 8095]

Bullshit. It was out

And Rodgers clearly had it while on the ground. What's your point?

 

[TheLegendary]

Bullshit. It was out

You could see the ref saw the ball in Rodgers hands in the scrum

 

[mastershake]

Atlanta full of thugs!!!!!!!

 

[Paches]

Keep hitting Rodgers.

 

[JABEE]

He was down. It was a late hit.

 

[RBH]

Dumb fucking penalty

 

[friskykillface]

Rodgers will probably keep running

dont run

 

[PopeReal]

How can it be a late hit when you fumble?

 

[eznark]

It's like every offensive linemen is Justin Smith.

 

[AbortedWalrusFetus]

Doesn't matter with a late hit.

It certainly does. When possession changes the QB becomes a blocker.

 

[JNA]

Wtf were those Falcons players doing? Are they trying to kill Rodgers?

 

[Sephzilla]

How can it be a late hit when you fumble?

Because he recovered and the refs blew the whistle

 

[Talon]

lol Tyson Jackson just delivering the people's elbow.

 

[grandjedi6]

Rodgers shouldn't have tried running that in. Dangerous hero ball there

 

[Elfforkusu]

It certainly does. When possession changes the QB becomes a blocker.

:jnc. Maybe in the college game. NFL qbs are a protected species.

(Also, ball never changed possession)

 

[JABEE]

He was downed, but the defensive player couldn't have been sure who recovered the ball. it seemed late and it's Rodgers

 

[eznark]

Send Brad Jones out there to Cecil Martin Cowardly.

 

[PopeReal]

So when a quarterback fumbles, stay the fuck away from him and let him recover.

Ok, NFL.

 

[AbortedWalrusFetus]

:jnc. Maybe in the college game. NFL qbs are a protected species.

Correction, only certain QBs, because it was perfectly legal to blindside Foles on a change of possession (not that these were remotely similar).

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

It's like every offensive linemen is Justin Smith.

i guess if you can get away with it why not do it!

 

[JABEE]

:jnc. Maybe in the college game. NFL qbs are a protected species.

Unless you're Foles, then it's a great play.

 

[unknownstranger]

Thanks for the Lacy fantasy points Falcons.

 

[Sephzilla]

You apparently didn't see my last response to you?

 

[SliceSabre]

So I guess the Packers are just gonna walk up the field each time they get the ball and score at will.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Got my head nodding on that song

 

[eznark]

If you dive into a player on the ground its a penalty. He was clearly not going for the ball. Has nothing to do with the position of he downed player.

 

[RBH]

Fucking pitiful

Fuck this garbage ass defense

 

[captive]

Holy shit, Lacey jumped right by the one black person in Green Bay that doesn't play for the packers.

 

[FTF]

So I guess the Packers are just gonna walk up the field each time they get the ball and score at will.

Pretty much

 

[Greg]

Fucking pitiful

Fuck this garbage ass defense

I love you

 

[Link]

Beside the Seahawks/Pats is there any other team that win the coin toss and defer? Broncos too right?

The Jets almost always defer as well.

 

[AbortedWalrusFetus]

If you dive into a player on the ground its a penalty. He was clearly not going for the ball. Has nothing to do with the position of he downed player.

I agree, but I also don't think that gets called if it wasn't a QB on the ground. It was a good penalty call regardless though.

 

[Elfforkusu]

Unless you're Foles, then it's a great play.

Probably not? What play are we talking about?

 

[JABEE]

If you dive into a player on the ground its a penalty. He was clearly not going for the ball. Has nothing to do with the position of he downed player.

Yeah. It was the right call.

 

[RELAYER]

Matt INT incoming.

 

[WesternHeretic]

Holy shit, Lacey jumped right by the one black person in Green Bay that doesn't play for the packers.

There's black people in GB that aren't football players?

 

[everyday math]

So I guess the Packers are just gonna walk up the field each time they get the ball and score at will.

Falcons could realistically do that as well.

Packers D urg. I hope we start looking for a new coordinator after this season.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Beside the Seahawks/Pats is there any other team that win the coin toss and defer? Broncos too right?

Panthers used to.

Then Ronnie realize that our defense was cheeks and its basically giving the other team a 7 point head start.

 

[Sephzilla]

I agree, but I also don't think that gets called if it wasn't a QB on the ground. It was a good penalty call regardless though.

I don't even think it gets called if he didn't hit him directly in the back. He made that penalty as obvious as possible

 

[eznark]

Probably not? What play are we talking about?

Foles got Clifton'd and it wasn't called. Should have been.

 

[Deleted member 8095]

Matt INT incoming.

Peppers pick 6?

 

[AbortedWalrusFetus]

I don't even think it gets called if he didn't hit him directly in the back. He made that penalty as obvious as possible

He was too dumb to execute that hit with the bare minimum of finesse it would have taken to make it a legal play.

 

[JABEE]

Probably not? What play are we talking about?

Troy Vincent said differently.

At least in this situation there may have been confusion on whether Rodgers needed to be downed. The cheap shot on Foles was away from the play. That's irrelevant though.

 

[Rollo Tomasi]

Peppers pick 6?

Clinton Dix Pick for Six

 

[Surge]

Can we do something productive on D this time guys?

 

[Sephzilla]

Jesus Clay

 

[tmdorsey]

I really hate that play for Jackson.

 

[eznark]

Peppers pick 6?

He's our only defender who can catch
