But Minn, GB, Carolina look far less scary than they used to. And we have 3 division games left, plus AZ (who knows what team shows up) and Chicago. No excuses not to go on a run, even with TW on the sidelines.

One game at a time. Come out on fire v Minn to start.

The loss of TW for four games scares me. The blindside protection can't be as good as it would be with TW in the game.

How was that Donald helmet contact on Newton Not called. I personally try to not like Cam as much as possible bc he was taking selfies on the sidelines last year while they were blowing us out .... but that should have been a flag. You cant make contact with a QBs helmet when he is in the pocket.

First time seeing this and it's pretty funny and true

He says almost every one of these each post-game conference.....

Redskins place TE Niles Paul on injured reserve

[skinsfan69]

that's going to hurt our 3 te sets. that's been a pretty effective formation for us.

It was a face to face ,Newton standing straight up ,the lineman was in the air and had not control ,I understand the call or non call.To me Newton can't handel the heat anymore he needs to stop crying .

Not to mention his monster run blocking. He's our most consistent and arguably best player on either side of the ball. It's pretty crushing. Not sure how he could have allowed this to happen unless he know the test would be positive. It really hurts us. But they should be good enough to take some of these games anyway. The Patriots just traded one of their beat defensive players and I bet they don't skip a beat.

Didn't watch that game last night but it seems like all kinds of crap is being said about the officiating. Missed and botched calls left and right. Very embarrassing forthe league as a whole. Coaches, players, press and fans are calling out for something to be done about the putrid level of refereeing. This is something the NFL MUST address in the upcoming offseason.

I dont know how anyone could understand that as a "non call". Newton was a QB in the pocket, not a runner. A defender can not make any contact with a Qb's head.

^^ video of the Richard Sherman hit on the Bills kicker.

That absolutely shouldn't have been a personal foul. Sherman jumped, paused, realized the ball was being snapped and there had been no whistles, started toward the block again, got pushed toward the kicker, touched the ball first, collided with Carpenter, and then the first whistle blew.
^^ How a seahawks fan saw the play. Lol

At this point, I dont blame the refs. I blame the NFL for not making them full time employees. Just pay them 200k annually and be done with it. This is getting ridiculous.

Well except for rookies they are already pretty much there. I mean since when is even the rookie salary not enough that you do not need a second job? Are you telling me that 6 figures is not enough money to get competent referees? These guys are not even good at their job.

Here's why Richard Sherman wasn't flagged for contact on Bills' last play - CBSSports.com

Another controversial Richard Sherman moment. Last play of the game, Bills w the ball at the Seahawks 15.

Bills Taylor just barely leaves the pocket area when Sherman decks a receiver. No flag bc, apparently, you can straight up blind side hit a receiver once the QB leaves the pocket. You have to make sure you dont hold and the ball isnt going to be thrown to your area.

Ive never heard of this ... but apparently it is right there in the rule book as legal. Im 100% confident that if a redskins tried this, it would be a flag no questions asked. Its a gamble bc you are hoping the ref will have the same view and interpretation as you.

Im not sure Taylor had actually left the pocket when Sherman decked his guy, Taylor was in the process of getting outside the pocket.

Amazed, if a QB leaves the pocket, you can just clean out any receiver. Amazing.

The league is all about player safety of course.
