TD laying Jimmy Graham the fcuk out last night

I hate calling a legal play in football a cheap shot or below the belt but that was just that.  For that split second the play was over for Graham and he was out of the play - not in position to block, no where near the play.  As Graham was out of the play, as common in the NFL, he did not offer much to the play.  Davis then removes himself from the area of play to take a run at Graham.  He unload for no reason against a defenseless player who had no reason to expect to be hit like that - and yes, I know it's football and the basics are to be ready at all times but come on.  It was a low blow.

 

He should not get fined for this and he should not a penalty for it but someone is going to put his ass in check and give him the same treatment Alvin Mack got for showboating.  It was a dickhead move.

I bet your were all for the late hit on smith in 2011 though, right? gtfo go here and take ur bounties with u, hypocrite

I never said I was, but if it fits your narrative, roll with it. Hypocrisy is talking down about the Saints for the bounty bullshit and then being completely fine with this hit. That is hypocrisy.

    • I will as soon as you withdraw your fandom from the Patriots. Informative threads are great but all of these estrogen and emotion driven threads you start are ridiculous.
    • Will be there tonight and expect nothing from the Canes. They are soft and won't go after anyone, nor will they respond when, not if, Florida starts bullying them. Not to mention Freddie is in net. I fear this will be an ass-kicking.  
    • Is this not a bit contradictory?  Also surely if any of us are smart enough to evaluate what we're seeing in real time, a former NFL QB can at least manage the same.  Especially considering he's basing his analysis on hours (maybe generous?) of reviewing All-22 footage which he can play back over and over again, focusing each time on different position groups, match-ups, progressions, etc. which is simply impossible for a fan to fully assess in real time.  Unless you're actually at the game, we basically only get the QB/O-line in frame during the broadcast and even in that limited window of the field, there is simply too much happening.  I'm usually broadly focusing on Bryce, maybe peeping the footwork (or lack thereof) and just the overall pocket and whether there is any pressure coming.  I'm not able to watch every individual one-on-one o-line match-up on top of it to see who got beat, who didn't pick up a blitz, which o-lineman didn't shift to help double-team, or whatever else. I think the truth is somewhere in between (as is almost always the case).  Knowing the play call, audible, etc. is pretty important when judging individual performances, which is why we should always take PFF grades with a grain of salt.  But yeah we can also get a pretty good overall sense of how a player is performing just from watching the game on the couch on Sundays.  I still think there's a lot of value in a review video like this.  As long as you have the bare minimum media literacy to take the interesting insights while also acknowledging inherent biases from a video like this (i.e. obviously focusing on the good over the bad).
