Pretty much a regular
I've become surprised when a passing play occurs and we don't see a flag. This brand the NFL is producing is a style thats hard to watch. If they're not allowing contact.
Did anyone see Julius Peppers get called for a personal foul when he slid on the grass as Flacco scrambled and slid? They bumped each other as they were sliding on the wet surface and Peppers got called for 15 yards. Peppers not only just bumped him but he pull back as he was sliding. How about this one. A Bears defender had his arm around the runners chest and his other hand behind the runners head. Horse collar call. The rule was meant for when a tackler catches the ball carrier from behind and pulls him back. Another bogus call. How about the 49ers penalty late in 4th Qrtr on 3rd down when they tackled Drew Brees? You can't hit a QBs head. You can't touch is neck. You can't go for his knees. You can't hit him late.
Another thing, I understand what Payton Manning is doing but to watch him pretend he's going to snap the ball play after play after play bores me to death. By the way, how does he get away with moving his hands to decoy a snap? He now has the entire NFL yelling "Hurry Hurry!" and there's no snap. Manning is throwing so much BS out there to decoy that it's an element of the game the fans have to deal with. Imagine this, Payton Manning is an immortal NFL QB who has become hard to watch because of his pre-snap antics.
If you're a head coach in the NFL why wouldn't you throw 2 out of every 3 plays? PI and defensive holding is being called all game long. Throw back shoulders and let the DB run through the WR. Betting against guys like Manning, Brady, Bree's, Luck or Rodgers is suicidal. They know how to take advantage of the rules and it's a big reason why the continue to win, while the others still don't get it. There are QBs who just won't throw the ball down the field unless they have someone wide open. FYI for those QBs, the PI's come from good tight coverage. Officials aren't allowing good coverage so throw the freaken ball!
Did anyone see a well played game today from both teams? I watched a lot of football and I don't recall one game being well played.
