I just hope we don't tank it on purpose out here for draft position. We already know what positions we need, and moving up from where we'd shake out without tanking won't make much of a difference. Play with pride from here on out and I no longer care about the loss column.

The cleansing fire that will be our offseason is warming me already.
IIRC it was like 3 quick whistles.. normally at a whistle you stop play, so one person can still react and get the ball because of that

I believe that that's a flaw in the rules

I'm also not big on continuing the review after a TO is called, that's the same as having a challenge. Either give them a challenge or don't review it anymore once the TO is called.
