Problem w/ Cowboys giant screen.

CRedskinsRule · 08-28-2009, 11:29 AM

So it is a one year trial run. In the end it will just be a good running joke about the Cowboys. At least we don't have to worry about the staples popping. Sleep well tonight Lotus

a do over is the most ridiculous ruling ever. what happens if during a do over, it gets hit again? do over on the do over? the whole thing is retarded

I'm waiting for the do-over after a great punt with hangtime late in the 4th quarter of a close game hits Jerry's Used Car Sale Commercial playing on the screen...then the do-over is BLOCKED!

Will be sweeter if the Cowboys are the victims.

That is what I want to see.

What about do-overs for the gunners?

F-that, I'd be pissed...I'd imagine that would affect the next punt return outcome too if the gunners are getting worn down running all the way down the field for just a "do-over"

Again I say, that after seeing the Campbell and the Redskins starting offense in the first 2 preseason games, I can certainly understand your concerns over punting.

You're a funny little guy.

Hunter the Punter can knock the screen out...

If this was any other team, that scoreboard would have come down in a heartbeat. And if this were happening here in DC, you'd be reacting the same way (hell, our own fans would be reacting negatively).

It if were any other team, they would have used some common sense and the 60-yard long ego display would have never been installed...like the Colts just did.

Thank you. Spot on.

Does New England play the Cowpukes at Dallas? Maybe Darth Hoody will complain about this and Goodell will have JJ take this down.

This doesn't have anything to do with the Redskins. We kicked your ass at home last year and I expect we'll do it again. This is all about having a stadium that could affect the outcome and/or pace of a game.

And now the Dallas home crowd can watch their asses getting kicked in monstrous HD!

Do you think the boos will be louder when the HD is of Tony throwing an INT? Wouldn't it be ironic if the Screen led to a reverse Homefield Advantage. Too sweet.

Did I misread the rule or does the playclock stay where it was when the snap occurred? What then happens if you're trying to run down the clock before a punt, snap it at 2 -- then the punt hits the screen? You have 2 seconds to get the snap off once the ball is reset? I don't like that part of it.

I also feel this is blown out of proportion. Jerry didn't really get his way, but the NFL realized "Oh shit, this is our fault. We'll have to pay to move this behemoth." If this becomes a consistent problem, something will have to give, but Im willing to bet these rules stay in place. I don't like the play clock one. At least add 5 seconds to the clock so that they have time to get a snap off.
