If you're pushing a reciever (or even toucching him) while the ball is in the air, wheteher or not you are looking back (halfheartedly and only after you have already grabbed him), and the reciever is over 5 yards beyond the line of scrimage, the rules say it is interference.

yes, and if your a defender with your head up looking for the ball, not touching the receiver, and the receiver grabs your shoulder. at this point ther receiver has no right to touch defender either.

The call was because the defender pused the reciever so that he couldn't reach the ball, i.e., interference. There is no rule declaring that a defender is absolved of interference if he looks bacward as he commits the foul. If you impede the opportunity of the reciever (or the defender) to reach or catch the ball, it's interference.

the DEFENDER was in front of him running with head up. He was grabbed from behind, the rules are the same for both sides. the call was wrong, even the official kissing butt play by play guys won't say it was pass interference.
Posted by Highwaychild on :
It WAS pass interference. Listening to Phill Simms doesn't make it, not pass interference. Just because you look at the ball, doesn't say you can elwbow him out of bounds.
Besides it's 27-13 Broncos! That one play don't make the game, Broncos kicked a$$!LOL

PATS SUCKED AS AS Bad As I've seen them. Even this year with the injuries they didn't screw up like tonight.Oh Well
I hate indy and pitt. indy the most, boy i hate that manning piece of dirt.
I think Denver had bad rushing yards and passing yards tonight compared to the pats so I don't see them beating anyone.
I did want Pitt Vs. Pats so I could go to the game but thats out.

LOL. watch again. no touching after 5 yards, denver guy grabbed him to slow him down. (i actually think nothing should be called, i like jousting) but saying the pats guy stopped him from making the catch and they deserved it at the 1 is silly.
I think the pats sucked more than the broncos kicked ass but good luck, i think shanahan is a great coach. and would rather they win than anyone else in afc.

call was right--even though they may have guessed at it... used his hip, then arm, then stiff-arm as legs keep moving: basically an aikido move that defensive backs are taught, how to disrupt the receiver with minimal "review" exposure...this time, he got caught...
Champ Bailey, MVP...what a nice "torque" motion to get into position--even though he looked like Leon Lett getting punk'd by Don Beebe at the end of the play...great challange by Bellicek on that one...40:60 he gets a touchback....

wrong on the call. your still on the jousting.
If you watch, defender is running down field 2 steps ahead, they only collide and joust (which should be allowed) after the receiver pulls his shoulder.
I wont even bitch about bailey (great interception) but your a smart man tell me the logical probabilities that a guy running forward on the one yard line, with a guy running at him forward but at an angle collide and the ball goes dirrectly sideways. hmmmm sounds almost impossible but didnt cause the game.
on a pass, both defender and receiver have the right to the ball and they can kill each other as long as they do not do it on purpose. ie.they are running/diving/jumping for ball

LOL, yep intercepted in endzone. AFTER DRIving,(you proud of that) 5 turnovers and you barely win by 2 scores. I like denver but not a kick ass performance by them
Posted by BuyTex on :
this is the intereference call?
ya, "right to the ball," but defender was not playing the ball...he was maneuvering the receiver...don't blame him, though, it's likely a TD otherwise, and he *might not* have gotten called...that's one of the toughest judgments to make, even on replay. But, ya, I'm the receiver? You can't impede or harass me beyond the free zone at scrimmage line...

tex, the colts are dancing that the pats got bumped.
weren't the colts the best offense ever last year, they scored 3 against the pats. Manning is a joke.
I had these same arguments last year. This year I'm worried about the d's they play, I think pitt has a better chance than denver. Although, indy won't stop the denver run like the pats did.
Remember, Peyton has done as much as that guy from miami, i forget his name but he won ****.

keith, we actually agree--earlier in the season, I responded that the Pats were the only ones who could Indy in the playoffs. It takes *team ball* to stop them, and who has been better than the PATS at total, team-ball the past few years? Nobody. Unfortunately, it's falling apart for them, like other post-parity teams...a good "signal" was that great kicker's missing his shot when it still mattered...think of the clutch plays he's made during their great run...

Okay, the game is turned off right now. I'm just starting to watch The Wedding Crashers now. I bet that the Bears won't score a point.
Posted by BuyTex on :
ya, seems like their deal is defense...
OK, gonna get my soapbox out...
I always taught my teams to regard the refs as just another aspect of the game, like the "spinner" in those board games, where ya draw a "move-three-spaces-back" card: sometimes you get a good call, but don't count on it...As a former player and as a coach, I know the toughest job on the field is the ref's...
However, as fans watching a playoff game in the NF f'n L, I think we could expect a higher level of officiating: they called the Colts' defender for intereference, when his early contact made no difference on the play; yet they did *not* call the Steeler's interefering with a game-changing TD...but, hey, was that to make-up for the interception they robbed from Palomalo (sp?) ????? That one really bugs me--it's like the message is, "Hey, don't even try on the tough ones." What a display of athleticism he made...and clearly had control etc etc... I understand the changes they've had to make since old-school days--spearing, protect the QB etc re general violent mayhem--but to deny that superb interception shows contempt for the basis of sport...the display of elevated athletic skill.
If that's a "correct ruling," the rules have gone too far...
OK, my rant for the day...back to scheduled programming
Posted by Highwaychild on :
Now, we got us a game. 16-14! It could be a Bear market tonight! Carolina's about to get naked shorted!

that was a nice series....good touch on that scoring pass

Now we don't have us a game...23-14.
Carolina's Steve Smith has 11 catches for 215 yards already. Guess he's getting a bonus.

The NFC is, the AFC is the Broncos for the taking! I mean ofcourse they still have to play the game and all, but Denver is undefeated this year at home, #2 in the leauge in rushing this season, also #2 at stoping the run this season.

Posted by HILANDER on :
quote:Originally posted by Peaser01: It looks like the AFC and NFC championships are up for grabs.
Yeah, well if Carolina's defense allows the Bears? absolutely non-existant offense to score as many points and rack up the yards they did, what do you think a team that has a good offense like the Hawks have are gonna do to 'em? Oh, and the Bears defense....well thanks bears, you made me a cool grand on Sunday. Also, Carolinas one dimensional offense needs to find another dimension or two. Seattles DB's are too good to only have one guy to throw to. They only way I'll bet against the Hawks is if the spread gets into double digits and as of this morning I think it was still just 5 1\2 points. Got a grand to burn.

Anyone hear Manning throw his offensive line under the bus. what a jag off, if he hit some open receivers and put up some points different story. LOL he'll stay a loser.
Brady didn't cry when he got smoked on that HUGE interception. Didn't see Big Ben crying when he took that helmet to his throwing arm getting smacked around by 3 guys.

Alexander was on the news today claiming he was sick before the game and was on some sort of medication, and that he didn't have a concussion that he was already feeling dizzy prior to being hit. Holmgren was stating that it didn't look like Alexander had a concussion that he had seen worse. We shall see on Sunday, I'm still not ruling a Seahawks choke fest, just got a strong feeling their gonna win.

The thing is...they shouldn't even be thinking about stringing a bunch of Ws together... you know at some point Favre's young crew is gonna take it on the chin... BUT... once in the playoffs, they *might* just be real dangerous...tested, young, with a veteran leader.
You know, the first time I saw Romo in a real game (not pre-season) I told Tex Jr: "Boy, he sure reminds me of Favre." None of that "connection" was known then...or at least, not in the mainstream media, announcers' comments, etc... Don't think Romo's as tough as Favre, but he sure goes for it, like his "idol."

the Broncos banged up Addai and Harrison last week, but it looks like Manning could probably pass a couple TD's to you Tex...
Tampa-7, Indy-13 so far.

Tampa-7, Indy-16 at the half... They're playing 'em good, at the RCA Dome and all.
Posted by Highwaychild on :
Man there are some blow outs today, looks like this'll be another one to the list.
Tonight should be a good game, but it'll probably be a blow out for the Pack.

lol, I doubt I could get open as easily as I usta could...
ya know, that's the thing with Indy--ya cain't beat 'em with defense alone. Your offense has to be able to keep Manning on da bench--and to score while they're at it...
Tonight's game will be the one I watch for Sunday games...you know Chicago will be as treed as they can get.

We'll I won 5 out of 7 bets this weekend not including monday's game because not sure if I'll bet that one or skip it yet. Anyways my wins and losses below on the regular pointspread:
Won
1. Baltimore -9 2. Cleveland - 4 1/2 3. Jacksonville - 6 1/2 4. New England - 5 1/2 5. New Orleans + 5 1/2
Lost
1. Chicago - 4 1/2 2. Oakland + 9 1/2
Posted by T e x on :
I think everybody lost Chicago...
another weird one was Seahawks v Saints--you hit 'em both...lol, who knows?
Posted by Machiavelli on :
We'll reason I picked New Orleans to cover the point spread was because they are in such a losing streak that they would be very motivated to win this game which in turn even if they lost the game they would of made it a close game in points thus covering the point spread of 5 1/2.
They needed to prove themselves in this game more then anything so they would try even harder then in the past 4 games. I guess I was right. I made a similar assumption with Miami I think last week or week before and won that bet as well.
The Chicago game was a bummer. But Chicago imo have always been an unreliable team at predicting sometimes with their QB's. But I lost the Chicago bet like everyone else. I expected them to cover the spread on such a team they played against.

The spread doesn't get affected once the game has started. No more bets are allowed when the game starts and the spread stays as is. I bet Oakland at +7 (had to win the game or lose by less then 7 pts) and they covered so I don't care who won or lost as long as they covered and they did... Posted by Highwaychild on :

Yeah, I know the spread doesn't get affected, it's everybodys money that does. Glad you had the Radiers on it, because most probably took the Titans+7. I probably would have took 'em with +21...lol

Lunatics is correct. Have they been put away so they can do harm to human beings?
Don't remember, that was back in the 70's. If memory serves me correctly, I think they shot the dog first then hung it in the tree. They're pretty serious about their football up there.

it think it's a function of the farm mentality.
i've never been around a better group of people than the folks i lived around in Nebraska,
they made their kids study hard and if they didn't turn in their assignments on time? they failed 'em...
just like a farmer has no options on when to plant up north...
down here in the south where i am now? everybody is laid back, they literally have months to decide when the right time to plant is, and if they get a bad start? they can often replant and still get their crops in...
historically/ up north? if you ain't gotcher root cellar full? you're dead...
dayown hyar? we still have farmers that plant collard and other greens on the edges of their feilds by the roads, and you can go pick fresh greens all winter for free, if you want...

No more serious than in Texas or Alabama or Pennsylvania or even in Georgia and look what they are willing to do to football freaks that mistreat dogs.

woof, the bears sure put the hurt on the pack, home field advantage may be a thing of the past.
And as usual it is just pitch and catch between Brady and the Pat's receiving core. Looks like a high school team playing against the Pat's. The fish don't have any answers, offense or defense.
Posted by Upside on :
The Pack looked good today didn't they? Man I wish I could believe in them but today they played like the Packers that everyone expected them to be this year.

Gibbs has Childres' number in the first half for sure. Loading the box is the Vikes Achilies heel.

Apparently, home-field advantage would *not* have been an advantage...

up for grabs. My prediction for the Superbowl-------- The Pats....................... and whoever the Pat's beat.
Posted by Lockman on :
The Giants make the playoffs! And Eli only fumbled three times and was only intercepted twice. My what does it take to beat these guys, they must be blessed. Now next in order is to beat the Pats, it could happen.
Posted by Highwaychild on :
Well the G-men are 13 point underdogs.
Watch 'em do Brady like they did Ole Joe Theisman's leg on the Pats opening drive.
Pretty risky to play 'em in a game that doesn't *really* mean anything, especially if they don't win it all...

LOL Hiway, i have been a 'skins fan since the 60's and you know what? there were a lot of 'skins fans that cheered too when LT broke his leg
some even said it was too bad he didn't break his jaw too Posted by PCola77 on :
Well, the Giants sure choked that one away.
Not a good day for me and sports.
Pitt gets BLASTED by Dayton Pats complete the undefeated season and PSU wins their bowl game.
All the teams I was rooting for or against did the opposite of what I wanted.

actually i can go for the Packers too. i wouldn't mind seeing a QB almost as old as i am win big....

I guess I was wrong about him dying then. So, Sammy Baugh is playing again. I'd like to see him win big too.

incredibly stupid... *if* you're gonna do that? you make sure there's way more than enough protection and send out only two guys for the hail mary...plus the first unit just sucked, anyway. Doesn't bode well for the playoffs...
Posted by glassman on :
at the risk of sounding a bit mystical? it seems to me like the 'skins have been playing with an extra man on the feild the last few weeks... Collins had a slow start throwing short/low today but later on he was just dropping them right into the basket, esp on the out patterns....
seems like he could have gone deep a few more times than he did too... but the score was healthy and running it up would not have been good.. better to slowly put daboyz to bed instead of riling their arses up....
did they end up with any yards rushing? at one point late in the 4th they were 0 yards rushing...

Ya know? I coulda played college ball, with the teensiest bit of support from the head coach (that's who controlled film requests, inquiries, etc. back in the day). I wasn't great, but I was good. And I gotta tell ya, there's NO WAY I would play with my hair looming out from 'neath my helmet. imo, you're just asking for it...

Right now I think the G-men can do it. I don't know if anybody can cover Moss, but the heat the G-men are getting on opposing QBs right now is bone shattering.

Well, not sure what they're gonna do. I believe that the price will fluxuate quite abit over the next year. I don't think it'll begin moving up again until just about all of their debt is paid back to the government. That may take some time, since they're now getting money from another fed program to pay back the fed...
Just about everyone knows about AIG's situation now as well. Would you want to get insurance through them, or be in business with them knowing what they did with a chunk of the bailout money? Also, AIG is still at risk for bankruptcy. What happens when the average Joe loses his job due to cutbacks at work? AIG will get less people paying them, as they are unable to, thus the snowball of debt gets larger.
