That's one condition of the rule. From what I understand, and this is the confusing part, the rule(s) can and are applied/interpreted differently given the type of catch or something along those lines. For example, a WR catches the ball on the sidelines, taps both toes in bounds and then steps...

IMO he is hurt (leg/s). So if he heals up over the off-season why not come back for another shot. He was playing great for the first 2/3 of the season. Seemed to come back to earth after the SD game where he took that shot to the thigh. Plus if he retires now, he'll have the rest of his life to...

Agree on all points of what Dez did, but that's not the rule. Play not over... Because he catches the ball going to the ground the play isn't over when he's down by contact. He has to continue control all the way through, even after what we agree would be the point of down-by-contact, and that's...

It's exactly the Calvin Johnson rule. His 2 feet down were during his fall to the ground, not running after the catch in a "football move". That's the distinction. So then he has to finish the catch, which is controlling the ball until the end. And because it was evaluated under these...

With NE, DEN, IND, GB, and DAL still alive you're saying if CAR?!?!? couldn't beat SEA then no one can? Seriously? The Panthers propably had the best D besides SEA going into the playoffs, but by far the worst offense. GB or DAL can beat SEA.

Heard a stat at the end of the game... 1-9 on 3rd down but 3-3 on 4th. :yikes: And it wasn't like BAL had 4th and 1s. Okay, I've had a few beers so take this with a grain of salt but that was a ridiculously good game. Sort of reminded me of the GB/NE game from earlier this season; both Offenses...

My analysis was way off on BAL. Much more of a resiliant team than I gave them credit for. Wow, their offense came to play. You know it's a great game when one mistake (or play, depending on which side you're on) makes the difference. 'mutts as the resident BAL fan, I know it's probably...

Thought about this game all week. Was nervous at the beginning of the week as BAL has that look of the Giants from a few years ago, when they started their run at the end of the regular season on the way to beating my Patriots in the SB. But as the week went on a few things changed my outlook...

Okay, maybe not :runaway:

My good friend RC and I go way back. He knows I jest.

;)

I agree with this. I think the "we won every game" argument is going to start losing it's luster some, as the strength of schedule starts increasing in value. Wasn't it Marshall that was undefeated right up until the end? Sooner or later a mid-major school will end up undefeated, and will say...

The "TV Market" as we knew it is fading. With the internet, satellite TV, etc pretty much anyone anywhere can watch any game. Yes, there are more people in NYC watching NY teams than elsewhere, but that same market now has choices to watch a slew of other games. NY teams aren't the only thing on...

Definitely the Ravens ;)

I agree with RC's two 4th down comments above. The picked up flag on the PI was a cluster but was probably the right (non) call. What get's me is how does Dez walk onto the field without a helmet, yell about the call and not get flagged. I think that was the bigger issue and would have kept...

Heard it wasn't the usual GB December cold for MNF

Agree with Khan. Tough schedule, but while healthy he's still a starting RB. Can't imagine you'd get a more valuable WR off the wire.

Vikings claim Tate

Denied! Well, that pretty much does it.
