NON-CALL ON PETERSON HELMET REMOVAL “FRUSTRATES” PEREIRA
Posted by Mike Florio on November 12, 2008, 11:27 a.m. EST
During a Wednesday morning interview on Sirius NFL Radio, NFL V.P. of officiating Mike Pereira took issue with the failure of the officiating crew to flag Vikings running back Adrian Peterson for unsportsmanlike conduct for removing his helmet after scoring what turned out to be the game-winning touchdown against the Packers on Sunday.

“I can’t figure out why anything wasn’t done about that,” Pereira told Randy Cross and Peter King, “but I will say this: It frustrates me that we didn’t do anything about that. You can’t take your helmet off either to argue a call or to celebrate. If you’re in a time out period or a measurement or a challenge there are times when you can take your helmet off on the field. Or when you’re nearing your team area when you approach the bench. But when you score like that, when you remove your helmet you should be flagged. Or when you take off your helmet to argue with the officials you should be flagged, too, and it frustrates me, quite frankly, that we didn’t do that.”

Wow.

We appreciate the candor, especially since the question has been so hotly debated since we posted an item regarding the non-call. Nearly 150 comments have been generated, and we’ve got a feeling that a few more will be attached to this posting as well.

Clearly, the Vikings avoided a major problem on this one. If Minnesota had kicked off from their own 15 while leading the game by one point with more than two minutes to play, chances are that game-winning field goal attempt would have been launched closer than 52 yards from the goal post.

LOL @ TO talking trash about Hall. I'm sure he does hope Hall is covering him because Rogers and Springs shut his ass down earlier this year.

Damn! I didn't know that "of" was considered a four-letter word around here. My bad.

Maybe a mod can come to my rescue? Official NFL Week 11 thread where Andy Reid is a moron and the NFL Network STILL sucks

Man forget the Eagles and Andy Ried, how did Martz and Singletary not make the thread title this week? After that horrible 57 second show of coaching, why would anything other than a complate lambasting of those two not even be considered?!!!! The fact that Martz would come out and say it was entirely the Refs fault! BAAHHH!

Ugh screw them all, horrible officiating, everyone who saw that game knows where the ball should have been. Horrible coaching, cmon Mike at least try to disguise your run play that everyone knew was effin coming! And poor Hill, I just dont know what to say about him, great heart and passion, but just wow. Three INT's.

Oh well, GO TITANS!!! Bout to be 10-0.

Yeah, I thought about a Niners title, but there has already been a few of those this season I believe. The Eagles haven't been represented until now. Also, I felt like I owed it to effzee to echo his frustrations with Big Red in the thread title and OP.

Orton back at practice

By Vaughn McClure

Quarterback Kyle Orton was back at practice with the Bears on Wednesday, but he wouldn't speculate on his status for Sunday's game against the Packers as he continues to recover from an ankle injury.

"[It's early] in the week, obviously, but I'm preparing like I am [starting],'' Orton said. "Day in and day out.''

Orton suffered a high right ankle sprain against Detroit on Nov. 2, an injury originally expected to sideline him three to four weeks. He missed last Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Tennessee Titans.

Orton said the ankle is getting better every day. Asked how close he was to playing against the Titans, Orton said, "I didn't play, so I don't know. Wasn't that close, obviously."

If Orton plays Sunday, it would be his first game at Green Bay's Lambeau Field. The Bears (5-4) share the NFC North lead with the Minnesota Vikings, one game ahead of the Packers (4-5).

"Everybody on the team knows how important this game is, how important this rivalry is and looks forward to it all year," Orton said.
 
Streak of good weeks has come to an end.

It's official, Cadillac is back!

Tampa Bay activated running back Cadillac Williams to the 53-man roster Wednesday. The Bucs also promoted WR Brian Clark to the active roster. In addition, Tampa Bay released RB Michael Bennett and placed WR Maurice Stovall on injured reserve.

There is a silver lining. BS (before Singletary), it would have been 35-14 in favor of the Cardinals. I think Singletary will help bring the 49ers back to glory. He is working with the same personnel who were 2-5 before he took over. It will take a couple more weeks to bring them around. They have the Rams next week and then a hard 4 weeks after that (Cowboys, Bills, Jets, Dolphins). So don't expect too much this next month, any wins will be gravy.

Owens is mad because he hasn't had a big game in several weeks.

thank you!

i feel like being called out in the thread title in the nfl threads is the first step in getting your coach fired.

Man WTF Ben.

Tomlin had to urge your lazy Messianic ass to practice?

Cmon Ben! You can't expect to keep coasting on your God given ability (literal in this case) and get away with it. You aren't going to win those 5 SB titles by just showing up!
 
So Roflisberger is lazy and fakes injuries? Damn, he's the NFL's version of Dwayne Wade.

edit: even got a title given to him by the refs, holy shit.

But you come to expect this from the Saints.... So we had one (arguably 2) good years in the past 10 years of Saints' play. We are a total failure of an organization, consistently making poor decisions. Its more a surprise from a team like Denver. I'm pretty used to seeing mid season meltdowns by the Saints. We can never close out games.

This is true. Same could have been said of us until Blank finally wised up and got some solid football minds, who proceeded to take out the trash. :D

I'm surprised by Denver as well, especially the fact that they can't run the ball. When is the last time anyone has said that about a Shanahan team?
 
im kind of over the loss on monday but not really. what pisses me off most is that martz said he didn't know the ball was spotted at the 2 1/2 yard line, he found out from.... MIKE FUCKING NOLAN! why is nolan calling martz on tuesday mornings? why didn't martz know it was at the 2 1/2? why didn't we spike it on 3rd down? why did it take 35 seconds to spike the ball before? why did we run at the 2 with no timeouts and 20 seconds left?

but i digress, it is not a time to lament the past, but a time to embrace the future!


GO NINERS BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!

9-7 here we come!
