Terrible officiating - Vikings/Colts

You can’t give a guy a penalty for being pissed after such a horrible blown call

Sure you can.  Regardless of good call or bad call, he still threw his helmet.  The official (if he is worth his salt) is probably going to give him the benefit of the doubt if all he is doing is screaming obscenities.  But not throwing the helmet down.

Suppose the unsportsmanlike penalty was for pushing the official.  Are you going to say it is okay to do that just because the call was wrong?  If you do, look out for what happens next.

I get it, he's frustrated.  That does not allow him to get a "get out of jail free card."

I'm not a Vikings fan at all, but will have a great deal of satisfaction if the Vikes win since it means Matt Ryan would be on the losing side of the giving up the largest leads in both regular season and Super Bowl history.

It's almost like the Colts best strategy at halftime, with a big lead, was to take Ryan out of the game.  Their only hope was to see if his bad mojo applies when he is parked on the bench.

The delay of game penalty on the Colts defense at the end... really stupid move by the defender.

Now the Colts and Matt Ryan are on the wrong end of the biggest comeback in NFL history.

 

Funny thing is the guy they called it on may have gotten by with it until his partner came in to wrap up the Viking that picked up the football.  Dumb.

    • He was saying Ron hid when he was cut/traded whatever that was.  I get being resentful, and feeling like that was gutless.  He, and Ron, neither are from the ‘breaking up with someone in a text or email is okay’ generation. That avoidance is seen as a lack of character.  Talking about it on camera how many years later? Why? And it is all one sided he said she said stuff. As he is speaking I am thinking well I bet that ain’t the whole story.    Between this type of stuff and him cheating on the wife stuff some of his shine is wearing off. 
    • I was very critical of Ron Rivera as a coach for a range of reasons. But Steve Smith has been playing the victim for years now and it's just not working anymore. We know for a fact that he was disgruntled from the moment we drafted Cam Newton because of his own ego. That says more about him than anything he could say about Rivera. And yes Ron Rivera had a lot of faults. No excuses for it. We were right to move on from him. But ultimately Steve Smith couldn't hold it together with that group the same as he struggled to hold it together under previous regimes. He needs to grow up and accept his own role in the last few years of his Panthers career because there are things he could and should have done differently the same as anyone else. Stop seeking to only shift blame to everyone else and evolve or just stop talking and fade away. This isn't helping anyone and it is certainly not helping his image.
    • A friend of mine was involved in building Steve Smith's house and nearly came to blows with him during the process.  Love Smitty as a player, but I've heard very little good about him as a human being.
