NFL GDT: Week 4 - Part 2

[Avs_19]

Why would he catch that?

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Well played by the Lions. What an idiot returner. Let it gooooo, let it gooooo

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

What on earth was the return man doing?

If he was down in the end-zone, that's a safety right?

 

[Gene Parmesan]

If he was down in the end-zone, that's a safety right?

Yes.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Why would he catch that?

Because Lions.

Tv guy said it would be touchback

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Huge play.

 

[dma0034]

He didn't have possession so it would of been a touchback.... this happened last week in a game (forget which one).

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Tv guy said it would be touchback

I don't get it. He touched the ball, which means it's a live ball and going into the end-zone by the defense. I didn't understand the explanation about it being a touchback.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Tv guy said it would be touchback

It looked close.

 

[hockeykicker]

He didn't have possession so it would of been a touchback.... this happened last week in a game (forget which one).

Basically exactly what they said

 

[Blitzkrug]

If Detroit somehow wins this...Seattle is going to go into meltdown mode.

 

[Fossy21]

Muffed catch recovered should surely be a safety

Emphasis on should

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Abdullah getting hard yards.

They need about 10-12 more to be in FG range.

 

[Avs_19]

I don't get it. He touched the ball, which means it's a live ball and going into the end-zone by the defense. I didn't understand the explanation about it being a touchback.

It's because he didn't have possession. I think if he had caught it and then fumbled after making a "football move", it would have been a safety. Something similar happened recently in another game and that's how they explained it.

You have to have possession of the punt for it to be considered "in play".

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Tim Wright! Now they are in business.

Gruden is fired up. GUNSLINGER!

 

[Avs_19]

A Tim Wright sighting.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Abdullah getting hard yards.

They need about 10-12 more to be in FG range.

There you go.

What on Earth is wrong with the Seahawks.

 

[dma0034]

Hope the Lions score a TD right here

 

[aleshemsky83]

Abdullah has got unbelievable explosiveness.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Stafford the mystery man.

 

[aleshemsky83]

Get ready russell

 

[Avs_19]

Abdullah has got unbelievable explosiveness.

He's going to be good but I think he dances around a bit too much at times.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Come on Lions. Go for the TD!
