LOL Roughing the Passer


Proudiddy

Recommended Posts

FOX cuts to the WAS/NYG game after our disastrous beatdown and i believe it was the second play, Cousins threw a slant and was hit as he released.  The pass was incomplete  but a pass rusher made contact with Cousins helmet (it appeared incidental) as he hit him.  Refs called roughing the passer.

I know we can't change what's already been done, but officiating definitely cost us the season opener and threatened our QBs health...  Had that game been called the way any other game is called with any other QB not named Cam Newton, we'd be 2-1 right now.

I hate to bring it back up, but it's hard to accept that we were robbed of a Superbowl, and have been put in a hole to start this season due to intentional and egregious targeting of our team and QB by the league and its officials...  and when I watch any other game, it's a constant slap in the face of how differently we're treated and makes me wonder if we'll ever be given a legitimate chance to win a superbowl.  It's bullshit.  fug the NFL.

Seriously? Excuses are like assholes. You know how the saying goes.

I am over this. I appreciate information, clearly we aren't going to get calls. Cam was horse collared and hit in the head and nothing was called. That's not why we lost. The players looked defeated for three quarters of the game. They just weren't in it. You can tell by the ten penalties. Also, that was a pathetic display of coaching. To me, the only person who showed up was Keek.

Yeah, I'm not posting this about today.  I honestly didn't see anything during the game as far as calls for or against Cam that directly affected the outcome.  I think our team was mentally and emotionally drained considering all that has gone on in their city this week.  The Vikings did what they needed to do, but we just didn't show up.  The officiating was horrible, but that wasn't the reason we lost today, it just contributed to it.

I'm saying WEEK 1, is absolutely due to officiating.  The Superbowl was due to officiating.  It is blatant and egregious.  And it honestly, has started to affect how I view the game and makes me question how seriously we should take it.  

I'm just saying we should be 2-1 had it not been for officiating and if the officials had called our games like they do for all those cream puff QBs for 31 other teams.  Instead, we are 1-2 and historically, that doesn't bode well for playoff projection.  I bring it up again because literally every other game shows evidence of their bias against us.  It's a constant slap in the face.

Well at least the vikings weren't trying to scramble cam's brain when sacking him..

Man, I told somebody following the Denver game...  Did you hear me or many other fans complaining when Atlanta beat us last season?  Hell no.  They outright whooped us.  Straight up.  They weren't dirty about it, they just beat us.  

I can respect that.  The Vikings did what they needed to do.  I hate it, but they played a clean game.  The officials were shitty, but I don't know that in the end that even matters when it came to this game.  They looked ready and we didn't.

The officials were shitty on both sides of the ball. And people complaining about a horse collar when Griffin sacked newton are flat out wrong. He had the back of his jersey sure, but didn't yank him backwards. Oh, and he did that all with one arm while being held by your lineman.

    • Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.
    • How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.
    • I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
