Candyass? He got straight up on both hits and continued playing without missing a beat.

A few plays before, Rodgers ran the same bootleg. Just before running out of bounds though, he took a few extra yards in front of one of our defenders assuming they wouldn't touch him. Peppers made sure he wouldn't make the same mistake again. Face it, he was playing like a douchebag, and Peppers taught him a lesson. Great play.

Quit getting a hard-on for every quarterback not named Jake Delhomme.

I don't think he was playing like a douchebag, they're aren't any special rules the players follow. You play to win and Rodgers wasn't doing anything any other QB would do. He's young and inexpericened so he pushed it too far...you're right that Peppers made sure it wouldn't happen again, but I wouldn't classify Rodgers as a douchebag.

He was just about (and I stress that) to step out of bounds. The defender covering him let up, although Rodgers was still in bounds and was technically fair game, and decided that a big collision wasn't required. We see it all the time, not for fear of a late hit foul, but because we assume the quarterback is going straight out of bounds seeing as they don't love getting destroyed by larger players.

Rodgers took advantage of the other player's courtesy and danced his way back in for an extra yard or two. Our defense tried showing Rodgers some sportsmanship and he exploited it for his own gain. He was asking for it, and Peppers gave it to him.

We see it all the time, not for fear of a late hit foul, but because they assume the quarterback is going straight out of bounds seeing as they don't love getting demolished. Rodgers took advantage of the other player's courtesy and danced his way back in for an extra yard or two. If that isn't playing like a candyass, I don't know what is. We all know Peppers isn't a dirty player so it's obvious that this struck a nerve. Rodgers got what he deserved.

Watch the film a few more times. I love Peppers and love the play, but Rodgers was CLEARLY a full 2' out of bounds when the hit occurred. There isn't even a question of that. He might have tried to get away with that move earlier, but he didn't on that play and the reason might have been Julius Peppers...

I was talking about another play that happened somewhere in that drive (I think), not the one in the video. It's been a while since I've seen that play, so forgive me if my memory is playing tricks on me.

No problem from me...

There aren't any rules in poker that says you can't look at another players hand, but you wouldn't play with someone who constantly tries to do it would ya?

i really don't consider it cheating. This kind of limbo goes on all the time, Rodgers took advantage of the situation and the situation fixed itself. I don't think it was underhanded. It was within an acceptable limit of competition for him to do that and i think it was acceptable for peppers to make him pay the fine for skiriting the sideline.

      Give Legette another season?

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.

      Nah we just talking about giving a platform and normalizing predators (who both beat women) opinions and celebrating it if it fits your narrative.  If that's fun I'm fine being a miserable fug by not supporting P.O.S like that. N b4 you call me a libtard or some other dumb ish know I'm an Anarchist/Libertarian and believe both these dudes should get a complete ass whooping (at min) or something worse for what they have done to women in this world.
