For anyone who took the time to watch those shitty football games, was it obvious stuff they are calling?

there a handful of calls that were very head scratching. I dont recall what game I was watching but the defense got a turnover on downs, but they called it back due to the corner brushing a WR on the other side of the field who wasnt even running a route. I thought to myself.... this is going to be a painful season.

Well they supposedly outlawed the pick/rub plays that were so popular. So perhaps this is the counter to that. 

It will be interesting to see how that shakes out this season. 

As someone who loves defense, I hated that the pick n rub was even allowed. It was such a bs tactic, but i get it.

Concerning with a physical DB like Horn as our #1, but I don't think he got flagged this pre season.

But yeah, no, this is great. More control for the zebras. What every fan wants.

If it gets too out of hand, they will tell them to chill. They did that with the increased emphasis on OL holding during the COVID season. It was bad thr first few weeks and so the league said to chill TF out.

    • Pretty sure Brady left due to the lack of weapons in New England. There were some saying he left because of general disagreements with BB and the way he ran the team. But I think he realized that he couldn't be successful with the team of receivers around him - other than Gronk. BB wanted to give short contracts to everyone not named Edelman.  
    • NHL teams that have achieved the feat of scoring three or more goals in the final two minutes of a regulation game to win include the Carolina Hurricanes (Jan 29, 2026 vs. Utah), Dallas Stars (Oct 14, 1995 vs. Bruins), and Montreal Maroons (March 15, 1932 vs. Rangers). More recently, the Vancouver Canucks (April 2025) achieved this feat within the final minute.    Key Historical & Recent Examples Carolina Hurricanes (Jan 29, 2026): Rallied from 2 goals down in the final two minutes to beat the Utah Mammoth 5-4. Vancouver Canucks (April 8, 2025): Scored three times in the final minute of regulation to defeat the Dallas Stars 6-5. Edmonton Oilers (Dec 2025): Forced OT with three goals in the third period (including two late) against the Sabres. Dallas Stars (Oct 14, 1995): Scored three goals in the final two minutes to beat the Bruins. Montreal Maroons (March 15, 1932): Scored three goals in the final two minutes to beat the Rangers. 
    • Yeah I'm not sure he'd come back even for HC. Also not sure I want him.
