The whole world’s coming together nowWhich one?
Excuse my ignorance but I had never heard or seen this called before, is this common? I can't for the life of me figure out how the play was ruled a fumble but no clear recovery...3 Eagles on the ball no cowboys, 1 Eagle comes out of the pile and the ball goes back to Dallas????
The call sucked.It isn't that common, because if it were, common sense would prevail. Many scrums for fumbled balls involve multiple layers of both teams, and if someone challenges a fumble, having the "clear possession" rule makes sense.
The reason for the screwup is that the refs didn't use common sense. They couldn't tell which Eagle recovered it, so they said "Guess it's still Dallas ball" despite no Cowboys being near itm Common sense dictates that it's less about which individual recovers the ball, but which color jersey does.
I'm sure the NFL wil issue some halfhearted apology for this call, or they'll look into changing the verbage of the rule in the offseason to address this, but it doesn't do anything for the Eagles right now.
It was poor officiating all around, beginning with missing the fumble to begin with.
Talk flying around Zimmer trying to save face. Worried about his job. Hoping firing the OC will save it (if he turns them around the next few games)Has to be more to the story right? He was just getting pumped up for HC gigs.
One of the worse writers around. Truely don't believe anything he writes. He is known as a contrarian writer. He will gauge how other writers & fans react to things, and will take the opposite approach to grab viewers. Someone on Philly.com did a comparison over the past few years and it was pretty close to every view he has.hi guys, is Marcus Hayes reliable? he wrote an article that doesn't paint defilippo in the greatest light but haven't seen the same stuff mentioned elsewhere.
Great. Screws the Eagles AND my fantasy team.Carson might be done for the year. Out for Sunday
Back related, not knee
