Re: Around the NFL Week 12
 

You start an "Around the NFL" thread with that? :D


Around the NFL:

*Aaron Rodgers still not ready to return
*Jay Cutler may have serious injury, not returning soon
*Wes Welker still has not passed concussion tests going into game vs. NE.
*Sam Bradford had his ACL surgery this week
*Case Keenum starting over Schaub for Texans again despite being replaced with Schaub last game.

Do stupid things, win stupid prizes.

No sympathy about losing his job either, I wouldn't want a reckless moron like that working for me either. Who knows, maybe he pulls stunts like this at work and the company is just protecting themselves for WHEN he hurts himself on the job screwing around.

Who knows...maybe he was supposed to be at work and the boss saw him on TV...doing this.

I think the problem comparing the two plays is a ref actually threw a flag. That is the only problem I have with the no call. If you are going to call it then throw the flag and call it, don't throw it and then try to talk yourself out of it.

Also comparing a play from three years ago without actually having seen the play and just getting a picture is not comparable to me.

He's lucky he didn't fall on a kid or someone else who would have seriously injured by 175 lbs of plummeting idiot.

A.) no flag was thrown and then picked up
B.) garçon is 5 yards+ away from the int whereas in the MNF game Grunk was 2 yards away.
Not close to being the same situation.

That's actually pretty close, in the picture referenced you can see garçon trying to fight his way to the ball. Gronk never made much of an effort to come back to the ball. I think if he would have the call would have stood. He more or less ran his route out the back of the endzone, the pass was short as hell.
