OT: 2016 Redskins Part XI: Red Zone Blues (7-5-1)

[g00n]

He was on the field with his helmet off. Blind luck he didn't get a 15 yard penalty.

Refs discretion. Apparently he wasn't far enough out of line for them to call a penalty. Just coming onto the field without a helmet is not an automatic penalty.

 

[g00n]

This is the time of the game you pay Norman to shine. He's come through a few times already this year.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Please kick it and have it fail. All the 4th downs are making me too nervous.

Once again, they can't kick it. No long snapper.

 

[g00n]

You best believe Philly will have a few guys practicing long-snapping this week lol

 

[John Price]

Roasted

 

[Corby78]

Kirk is gonna need to comeback drive, no thanks to the D

No thanks to the d? How about the pick 6 followed by a 3 and out to turn the game around? This team had me fooled for a while, I thought we were a playoff team.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Damnit. I have no faith in Hopkins if the games on him

 

[John Price]

Once again, they can't kick it. No long snapper.

They did there. Would rather they get 3 then waste more clock converting another 4th down, getting a TD, and then we get the ball with like 2 minutes left.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Well they found a snapper after trying 3 different guys on the sideline. Figures.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Refs discretion. Apparently he wasn't far enough out of line for them to call a penalty. Just coming onto the field without a helmet is not an automatic penalty.

Ref's discretion or not, a team leader like Garcon shouldn't be on the field, without his helmet, yelling at a Ref.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

4:52 to go. Time for Kirk to silence his constant critics.

 

[g00n]

how the **** is that not a catch?

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Challenge that.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Crowder gonna get hosed again

 

[Corby78]

That it any normal football world is a catch.

 

[John Price]

Game could come down to 2 close "catches" that could be called back. Depends on luck now and the refs. Honestly I don't see how that's not a damn catch. To me he caught it and took MULTIPLE steps before going down. Yes, he did give up the ball. But he already had possession for A LONG TIME. I don't see how that's not a catch, fumble, and recovery.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Catch, 2 steps, hit to the ground, ball comes out when he hits the ground. Should be a catch, fumble and recovery. Should be, but we've seen this league **** up calls like this all the time. 50/50 chance it goes the Skins way, IMO.

 

[g00n]

catch and down by contact, clearly. He has the ball in his hand off the turf while his body is on the ground, and the defender's arm pushes it out after he's down.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Woooo call went our way

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Seems obvious, but thats a huge break in this day and age of the NFL with the catch rule BS.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Need a 1st here bad

 

[Capathetic]

The Redskins have some weapons on offense but they have no business being in the playoffs. Arizona and Palmer are getting it taken to them right now. This Eagles team hasn't been beating anyone and should be running away with this game.

The defense is as bad as I've ever seen.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Wow, what a suit that guy is wearing. Auburn fan?

 

[John Price]

I don't know why they wouldn't just mash it up the middle there.
