Random Monday QB thoughts ~

Recommended Posts

So I read this article from Charlotte Observer:  https://www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/spt-columns-blogs/scott-fowler/article219434795.html

...Is this true?  No field goal 'by rule' can be longer than 5 seconds?  Why even is this a rule?  I do not remember seeing the team go back on the field for kick off and any lateral stuff either so either FOX cut away or I was too delirious with happiness.

So A- this rule needs to go.  If the kick takes longer than 5 seconds than so be it and B - WTF FOX - do not EVER cut away from local game!!

I kept waiting for Donte Jackson to get an interception.  THERE it is!  No wait that's Adams.   THERE it is!  No its Adams again!  Did seem like lots of opportunities out there though.  I get Giants fans tired of Eli.

I am still a Funchess fan!  That Moore tho....wow....and Samuel...would not be denied....#Promotions

Already been talked about but running it with 15 seconds left and no time outs?  Seriously?  Was this Cam or Norv or Ron...and the officiating..yeah I agree we were due but still...I would have rather win clean.  The BS unsportsmanlike conduct from hit on Funchess and Easy Chris McAffrey's 4th and 1 run...  #NotAFan

Game Ball...Gano right?  Can I make a case for Samuel??  Refs?   :) 

Is there any Huddler that thought the FOX pregame comedian Rob Riggle is funny?  I've seen some of his work before and have thought they were all galactically stupid...someone tell me he's funny because I have no idea why FOX keeps him.

More reverses please!  Thanks.

Tougher to be a Falcons fan or a Giants fan this season?  My vote is Giants...they had lots of hope going in.  Falcons...well heck I just hate we are the one team they beat this year.

Go Foreskins!!  This week anyway.  I'll admit I like Brees though and am happy to see him break some records but I'll be happier to see the Redskins slap them around.  A lot.

OLINE!  You guys were supposed to be our weak link this year (well one of them >cough< DB >cough<) but speaking for myself....you guys are awesome!!!  We need another game ball!

TD - welcome back.   Very sorry for your loss.   Please fix our defense...

All I saw from Jackson was him getting burnt but still making tackles. There were no freebies in his direction.

Wasn't it Jackson that almost got a int but it was just off his finger tips?

Did they really not show the kickoff play with 1 second left?  It actually was a pretty good effort by the Giants, it had me scared for a second.  I thought whoever threw the last lateral had a chance to take it to the house if they just ran with it.

It was not on the TV. I had no idea it happened until reading this thread.

I'd like to see it again.  I don't want to exaggerate it, but from my view (endzone 256) it looked like they had a pretty good chance to break it loose at one point.

Yeah I still haven't seen it but I did read about it elsewhere earlier today. I was going nuts when we won but also the channel did cut to commercial and Vikings/Eagles without ever showing the end. It's bullshit and I'm pissed that I missed even a second of the game due to that. At least I got to see the kick, in some areas they even cut away before that...

This became a rule because of the end of SB XXXVI. Vinatieri's game-winning field goal was kicked with 7 seconds left on the clock, and the ball appeared to go through the uprights with 2 seconds still left on the clock, but the clock operator let it run down to zero, denying the Rams a chance to try for a miracle return.

    • Jake, to me, will always hold a special place in my heart.  I really feel like for his era, he deserved way more love than he got, and should’ve had more than his one Pro Bowl.  He was a gamer with an underrated rocket arm. but let me tell you, after his Tommy John surgery, when he came back, I can’t remember who it was against, but it think it was a division game, he threw a ball that was supposed to be a throw away, as I think he was under pressure, and that poo floated forever and died right at the boundary where a defender ran over and picked it off.  One of the worst throws I ever saw.  His arm just wasn’t the same after the injury and surgery.  All that to say, that’s what almost every Bryce throw to the sidelines looks like to me.
    • And again, when watching him in college he had one distinct trait that I feel makes a franchise QB - on those plays when everything breaks down around him, he creates one on his own.  He doesn’t rely on or need everyone else.  That play last night on the final drive where he was getting sacked and threw it to Diggs before his knee hit the ground?  He does similar things all the time.  Mahomes, Allen, Lamar, etc., they all do it.  It’s what made Cam so special. but we picked a guy that’s the opposite of that.  He desperately needs someone else to make a play for him because he can’t.  Even that play yesterday on 4th down to Horn.  That wasn’t a great pass.  The defender was late and came down to make a play in the ball and Bryce threw it high and outside where Horn had to leave his feet and really use strong hands to catch it.  We relied on a 5’9” rookie playing in his first pro game to make THAT catch at THAT time bc of the early turnovers and a not great throw.  Crazy.
    • This thread is dumb. But I do think canales gets too cute with play calling and I don't think he's a good coach
