Luck vs Broncos and why he gets the call

Recommended Posts

With all the talk this season about how Cam doesn't get calls that other qb's get, I found it interesting that Luck gets a flag thrown yesterday against the same Broncos who assaulted Cam. 

Luck was running with the ball, went into the slide and a Bronco( pretty sure it was one that got fined) tapped his head with a forearm. Ref throws the flag and Colts get 15 yards. 

The hits on Cam were much more violent, Luck barely got touched yet he gets the call. What say you guys.

I was actually surprised that they didn't call a penalty on the Vikings when they hit Aaron Rodgers when he scored his rushing TD...

Maybe people hate running QBs because it's so hard to defend. But na honestly half that poo is racism and the other half is incompetent refs and the other half is gotta keep the game close in hype games and the other half is sometimes it's biased based on a number of factors and thats enough halfs to get the point.

Viking safety Andrew Sendejo got flagged for hitting Rodgers late in the endzone after he scrambled for a TD yesterday. Wonder if the refs will be that protective of Cam this Sunday against the Vikes.

Not gonna hold my breath

Sendejo wasn't flagged - the OL who retaliated was.

Then the refs are just incompetent and should be labeled as hazardous working conditions the players have to deal with. Sendejo launched himself off his feet and helmet-first into Rodgers, yet he didn't get flagged? Wow

Defenses apparently are allowed to basically launch themselves into a QB in their "running posture"

    • I enjoy being truthful. Although that means being unbiased. Which most on here are incapable of being unbiased. 
    • It looks like the Bucks and Giannis are headed for a divorce. He says he's ready to play and the Bucks say that he has told them he isn't. It really doesn't matter except that it likely means the end for Giannis in Milwaukee. He's 31 years old, but still an elite producer.  So, as GM, would you go after him this offseason? Remember, the Hornets have two 1st round picks this year and potentially THREE first round picks next year. What would a trade look like?
    • I agree with you, if all things are equal--assuming we are on the same page as to what that means.  If a DT and OT are there at 19 and you have them equal, which do you take? The DT would be rotational and get 25 snaps a game or so, and the OT is probably a reserve for most of the season.  What if Walker plays out of his mind and Ickey comes back strong? To me, there are just too many variables at T and Morgan met the needs for 2 starters.  Nothing about that screams lets "go OT in round 1" to me. I could see an Edge or a DT at 19 before I see OT.  I could see a TE or S before an OT--and I (personally) would rather have an OT over DT, Edge, TE, or S--but I do not see the logic.  In fact, CB is a position that resembles OT--who do we have behind our starters and are we happy with Smith-Wade?  A CB would be on the field more than a reserve OT.  How is the Walker at LT situation different than the the Bryce situation? He is basically on a 1-year deal and if he is injured, Forsythe becomes Pickett.  Would you take Simpson in the draft?  Dont get me wrong--I usually agree with you  and I get your point.  I am an OL guru--but I just do not see this particular group of Tackles making us better than Walker.  In addition, I think we can address OT once the Ickey situation clears up.  Short arms, poor run blocking, issues with strength--I am simply not impressed with the OTs.  For clarity, "developmental" refers to players who are still a year or two away from starting.  We are all developmental, but there are prospects who need a season to transition to the pro game. I see 1--maybe 2 OTs who could step into a starting role right now. In college, for example, taking snaps under center requires a different approach than blocking for the shotgun.  There is less to learn if you play a position that does not require much adjustment to transition to the NFL.
