2022 NFL/NCAA U.S. Football Season

[Camille the Eel]

I hear what you're saying and respect the analysis, but @Devils731 posted the shot and it was definitely holding.

If it was only slight interference in the crease or a shit holding call and the Devils won on the pp in game 7 of the scf in overtime I'm not sure you'd have the same opinion.

I hear you. Definitely wouldn’t have the same opinion.

Fair enough too. Certainly it was a foul under a strict interpretation of the rule. But one you see often let go. So I ask you, if you’re not a KC or Philly fan, just watching for entertainment - wouldn’t you rather they just let them play on at that point? It wasn’t an egregious foul and maybe he doesn’t catch that ball. It looked quite overthrown to me. The flag came in late too.

My oldest son would probably wish a gut wrenching call against every other team in thr NFL until a Time Machine is invented so the flag for pass interference can be thrown against the Rams.

Nightmare scenario has been avoided. Work should be tolerable tomorrow.

My (kind of) boss is a huge Eagles fan and tomorrow was already going to be the monthly unpleasant meeting.

We're already conversing in the slack chat about how to properly f*** with him.

 

[MauDevils]

No rioting tonight it's raining.

At least that will help rinse the grease off all the poles in Philly.

 

[ScottyK]

If the refs were gonna screw anyone, glad it's philly (ultimately phillys D screwed Philly in the 2nd half )

I don’t think Waffle House offers all you can eat?

Ton of FA's for Eagles + the 50M contract they're going to hand Hurts is going to make the Eagles situation a bit murky but they should be back. NFC East is meh, they should be better than the Giants/Commanders/Dallas next year. Giants could change a lot of the division with their offseason, pretty sure Dallas is capped out + Commanders have no QB.

You don't know that. KC was scoring regardless and that gross team was out of to's.

KC’s defense didn’t even force a punt all game, and the Eagles had more than a minute and a half to get at least a FG. This wasn’t AS bad as Rams-Saints but it was completely inconsistent to call that compared to the passive whistles the rest of the night. You want officials not deciding play in the last two minutes if possible, and actually working the rest of the night, instead they took the first fifty eight minutes off (not one holding call all game when both offenses were cutting through the D left and right?) THEN called a ticky tack foul that all but decided the game

Smothered and covered, side of bacon, waffles with extra (corn) syrup, and cheesy grits for about $14? No can defend and he can afford 11 of them.

Added benefit? The whole team can riot in the place and the worst consequence will be ending up on world star.

Thank god my chiefs

Some additional fuel for the fire.

They missed a hold on Bradberry earlier in the game. I'm sure it was either talked about at half between that crew to look at him specifically as a player. It's like how NHL treat refs Tom Wilson + Jacob Trouba (lol) or any other guy who hits hard or another example is how Joesph Blandisi used to dive like it was going out of style when he was on the Devils. Don't do shit if you've already gotten away with something in the refs eyes.

 

[Emperoreddy]

I think the issue is he grabbed him twice, more so early on.

The right call is the Eagle to just not hold the guy there.

They forced 2 in the 4th.

And as I said to @Camille the Eel you wouldn't be complaining if it was a comparable situation with the Devils hoisting the cup.

A: look at the screenshot, it was holding by the book, even if a bit chintzy.

B: they wouldn't have had a minute and a half.

now, i dont know any songs with the title mason dixon line but thought well, "there goes robert e lee"....


found this song though . (seen this guy's records for decades in the bargain bins...not once have bought one nor ever heard his music)

i guess today i learned that "new country" had already existed in 1984.

I forgot about the Toney return but they still gave up 35 points

If it was the Devils we’d be the ones getting screwed on the inconsistent borderline call. And I was rooting for the Chiefs but it’s still annoying the NFL officials always find a way to make it all about them

 

[Emperoreddy]

One of my biggest sports pet peeves is owners being handed the trophy first. You didn't win that dude

 

[Emperoreddy]

KC's D finding a way to actually get the Eagles to punt is the reason they won.

Every fanbase says that tbf, lol. The Eagles offense shouldn't have only scored 11 points in the second half, don't put yourself in positions for the refs to call you on things has always been my motto. Even applies to the Bernier major Devils fans always talk about.

I mean they still scored 35 points and controlled the clock, you can’t literally score every time out even in the modern NFL. If you want to blame anyone put it on the overrated D who did actually let the Chiefs score pretty much every possession in the second half, no sacks, no turnovers.

ya, i thought the exact same and it bothers me. sure, you the money and what not. but man, let the guys who got it done take it first. its just very strange and self important.

The Band is such an afterthought in today’s world .

Sure at the defense but the offense still looked bad the second half. Their best play was a busted coverage by a corner who left DeVonta Smith wide open after they were driving them at will. Part of me thinks they think Bijan at with the Saints pick because they don't have a true alpha RB in their backfield with Sanders, Scott, Gainwell.

Plus it would make you look great to be the guy who goes, “Don’t hand it to me, hand it to guys who won it.” And then get your time with it later.

You can really have your cake and eat it too in that moment.
