The middle of this D is soft. That bodes well for us.

Without Rankins or Onyemata it's soft, however we'll have both back by the time we play y'all at the end of November.

lmao saints fans just booing the rulebook at this point

PFT: Officials cost the Saints 15 seconds before halftime

Nah, we were booing the officials that don't know the rule book. Judging by your tenuous grasp of the rule book yourself, you'd fit right in with those inept loons.

That had to suck to carry that sign back to his hotel.

Saints fans have no idea what a bad call is. They would literally have an aneurysm if they got the BS calls we get on the regular.

You sure? We picked up on that bad call before halftime almost immediately and were right about it while the officials **** the bed again.

CMC has to be feeling a little giddy about facing the Saints twice this year seeing the success the Texans' backs are having tonight.

Nah, McCaffrey probably realizes we had a 3rd string DT in at 3-tech and knows he'll be facing Rankins in that spot come November/December.

The Texans could've waited 2 seconds to touch the downed retriever and let the clock run out. They blew it. 

Wrong, the play was over the instant Ginn went down. He didn't need to be "touched down" since he gave himself up.

Here's the link to the rule book, you may want to brush up on a few other rules while you're at it.

i would hope so. they didn’t look very good against the mighty texans.

You mean a team that just won its division and made the playoffs last year?

Pretty sure there’s a rule about “giving yourself up” where the play is called dead if the ball-carrier goes down with no intention to advance.

Finally someone that actually knows the rule.  :100_Emoji_42x42:

      Canales is holding us back

      I've seen enough tape review to see that we run crossers...we have dudes in the middle of the field. I have to think that this is a harder area for someone of Bryce's stature to hit. You have to see directly over the center of the line and is probably where the most interceptions happen (he has thrown a LOT of his picks by not seeing a dude in the middle of the field).

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      I’m pretty sure we did end up getting the first in that drive, but I don’t remember. It was obviously a catch the ball didn’t move

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      While I don't think NFL games are fully rigged, it's certainly closer to a scripted outcome than we all think. The NFL by their own admission in court is not a fair and balanced sporting event. It is a managed entertainment product, a "spectacle" as they've put it, that now has sports betting as a huge financial pillar of their business model. It's ridicuously naive to still think the NFL isn't using referees to manage the games towards certain outcomes, using "replays in the booth" and overturning calls, choosing to overlook penalties at critical moments and calling questionable and sometimes phantom game changing penalties at other critical junctures of games. The NFL has always done this going as far back as the '60s, and they were investigated by the FBI in the '70s which found a large number of ownership groups had ties to the mob. So when the overwhelming majority of the moneyline bets were on the Panthers vs the Saints last week, and suddenly we see some strange and ticky tack penalties we've rarely seen called on the Panthers all year, I just know there's more going on behind the scenes. And suddenly next week, the Panthers will probably be nudged to a win, to keep the NFC South race interesting, as I see the Bucs are the favorite as of now and most moneyline bets will trend towards the Bucs until during the game when the Bucs are leading heading into the 4th quarter, and the Panthers are nudged to a win. At least, that's what the NFL and Vegas probably want to happen.
