^^^^^^true...that was a bs call. But as a coach of mine said long ago....if you put yoyrself in a position where the ref decides the game....its your fault.
As a Raider fan, i frequently complain about the calls and this is always what I remind myself. If it's that close (to ultimately be determined by 1-2 bad calls) the players should've played better.
Key word...long ago. And your coach would usually say that today for pure motivation or for show ( and they do at the post game podium), but the reality is the game has changed a lot when it comes to penalties. Tuck rule is an example. Offensive player protection today allows for some pretty large leeway in interpretation.... which refs call...or don't. Coaches constantly argue with refs that the cameras don't show. They don't because it can highlight the ineptness or lend to a suggestion of a fix or favor when the blown call is flagrant or a player favored. One ref even told a player he was refereeing that he was on his Fantasy team.
Yeah...the game has been overcomplicated with rules. I mean the tuck rule has to be the dumbest thing ive seen
Most nights I wish that I had the NFL Network. Tonight is not one of those nights. When Thursday Night Football is bad it's damn-near unwatchable. No disrespect to any Jags or Titans fans who may be reading this. Y'all know it's just jokes lol.
"no disrespect" come on!!!! you cant disrespect the jag titan fans..... the jags and the titans disrespecting them by calling themselves a football team. ghee rodney dangerfield gets more respect...
I don't have it but every now and again the game is simulcast (I may have just made up that word but fuck it) on another network but if it's a game that I want to watch I'll usually head out somewhere and watch it. Needless to say, I stayed home tonight lol. People talk about how bad the NFC South is, and it is bad, but if not for the Colts the AFC South would be perpetually bad year in, year out. They had the division locked up weeks ago.
I'm a Jaguars fan...only because I feel badly for them. I didn't watch the game, but it was 21-13 in favor of the Jaguars. Sounds like an exciting game!
