Only once so far tonight have we failed on a 2nd down conversion (the incompletion). And another PI flag as Ian gets hit... helmet to helmet... that's garbage :thdn:
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

I hated that hit. I don't see how that is a football hit.

Head shot.

Coaches teaching headvshot techniques should be banned.

Should be a suspension.

That seems like an attempt to injure. Should have been kicked out of the game.

That helps take the sting off losing another receiver..a little.

I wonder if we will see the return of Akeem Foster in the second half?

Webb should get a game for that, head shot on a defenseless receiver

I agree. I don't understand how he is still in the game. Like I said, I don't see how that can be considered apart of the game.

Well we all know it's gonna take until next season to bring down a decision on that :clown:

Burris runs right into the heart of the blitz. Not a smart play
