So does that count as a complete pass?

Yep.

 

[WedgeX]

I mean, had Ware not been there Stafford could have rumbled for a touchdown. Ain't noone gonna stop that mass.

 

[LJ11]

wtf? are you serious with that call?

Thought I'd be the only one. If a DB chucks the receiver to the ground within 5 yards its all good. Collinsworth defending this garbage. Homeboy is just a PFF shill at this point, garbage.

Edit Charles Clay wrecked a Pats DB in the same exact way, no PI.

He said rule is within 1 yard of LOS. Is that true? I thought it was a weak call.

Yes

 

[squicken]

Why do we have Joique Bell as our RB check down option on a 3rd and 11 instead of Ameer or Theo? Playcalling is infuriating.

My guess is he is the most reliable pass blocker , since he is the one who seems to be in there on third downs

If I had to guess I'd say they probably wanted him in for blocking as much as anything, given that they were going to need to throw.

That said, it feels at times like the Lions just seem to design their play-calls around nameless positions rather than actually thinking about the players they have and what they are or aren't good at.

 

[Crisco]

Ok Lions. 1 high safety, everyone else near the LOS. Don't hold, don't jam, once a receiver gets 30 yards downfield, just let him keep running! Profit!

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

how is that not an offensive pass interference on that play? the broncos guy was blocking 3 yards downfield before the ball was ever released.

i hate that the broncos can get away with this shit just because their QB can't throw the ball over 5 yards

 

[Plinko]

Then let him block. Keep the ball away.

The partially eclipsed moon is more exciting than this game.

 

[Starphoenix]

Poor Harbaugh.

 

[LJ11]

He said rule is within 1 yard of LOS. Is that true? I thought it was a weak call.

Same exact play happened last week Pats/Bills, TE was flexed with a CB in press man. Wrecked the DB exactly like Ebron did, no PI.

 

[FTF]

lol Peypey

Nice catch Sanders

 

[Dega]

lol manning just said "fuck it"

 

[HalfBakedProphet]

God damnit Donald CJ

 

[jello44]

I can't tell if that was a failed bootleg or what.

Good ol Sanders.

 

[Man God]

No safety.

 

[ramuh]

Beautiful throw!

Peyton Manning teams have done this as far as I can remember watching football.

[FrenchMovieTheme]

that's no catch

but the refs will rule it a catch somehow

 

[Elfforkusu]

I didn't see the Ebron play, but my understanding is that all contact goes for both offensive and defensive guys within 5 yards of the LOS.

 

[FTF]

Hmm juggled it

 

[WedgeX]

How many vertebra did Manning sacrifice for that throw?

 

[slabrock]

overturn that pls

 

[Trey]

If that isn't a catch nothing is fair in this world.

 

[Plinko]

I have a feeling everyone will be mediocre this year and the Patriots go 16-0.

 

[PhoenixDark]

Lions have a good shot at winning this game, which will make the inevitable loss feel even worse.

 

[DrForester]

That better not get overturned, that was a good catch.

But these refs have been out to get Denver all night, so of course it will be overturned.

 

[FTF]

I have a feeling everyone will be mediocre this year and the Patriots go 16-0.

Sounds good to me.

And that should be a catch

[kingslunk]

I hate the NFLs catch rules. So unclear

18-1.

Fuck draft kings

:jnc indeed

 

[captive]

that was a quite nice throw.

 

[Team Alucard]

It would be amazing if they went 18-1 with their only loss being against Eli in the regular season.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Since Peyton is our QB, I hope we get the call.

 

[Trey]

They're very clear. Just subjective.

 

[Kastrioti]

He didn't even stay for the block just went straight to a flat route. I understand keeping him in for blocking but the playcall from the get go had the RB going flat route.

 

[Drakeon]

Goddamn they have an easy schedule. They had one of their toughest opponents in week 1 and already beat them.

 

[Plinko]

LOL at these refs.

 

[FTF]

Dumb rule

 

[DrForester]

Pack it in Denver. You beat the Lions but the Refs will fuck you over a few more times before it's over for good measure.

 

[TheLegendary]

Cmon Robo Manning. You have enough juice for one more victory

 

[Elfforkusu]

Was not a catch. Correct call.

 

[B.O.O.M]

Right call.
