VAR is ruining the beautiful game


NAS

Recommended Posts

Watching them measure in millimeters if someone was offside or not is just agonizing - regardless of who benefits in that particular game.  It is baffling that there's no common sense.  It's become worse than the "what's a catch in the NFL".

Fully agree.  If bigger player goes against smaller dude... while his body onside but due to size his hand 2 inches offside... it’s offside...  like wtf?  So VAR is smaller people favorite now?

Mentioned this in the other thread, it should be based on foot position and angle. The tech is there to measure that, and it's probably then incontrovertible. For a simple example, 50-60% of the attacking player's foot is past the last defender's foot, it's pretty obvious it's offsides then.

Completely agree.  When I said leg I meant foot.  That whole arm swing is so dumb.

    • I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

    • Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
