Post Mortem: Seattle v Pittsburgh

[auroraave]

Nailed it yet again, friend!

You know what's better than a wim? TWO WIMS!

Seattle rocking, OKC sucking - SO MUCH WIMMING going on right now!

Yes, nice summation of the game again.

I posted in another thread that Russ was waiting until the on the line time to use his feet. Once injured twice shy. Not to mention that with the protections in place it probably is the smart move.

Here is the hit on Russ. Combining this with the roughing the passer in the Bears Broncos game and its a major problem. Ironically if they called this then PC would not have reviewed the PI so all good.

referees screw Saints over yet again. This is inexcusable.

"Dear Saints fans - come spend your money - give us all you got - but don't expect fairness, unbiased officiating, or even basic competence!"

More officiating blunders changing the outcome of games.

FOX’s Mark Schlereth was apoplectic about each call. “Garbage call, but that’s the world we live in today,” he said after the Goldman play. And post-Chubb, Schlereth noted: “I guess we’re gonna legislate contact out of a contact sport.”

Unless its blatant helmet to helmet contact to RWs skull.

College has reviews for targeting. I am sure that is coming soon to an NFL near you.

I'm sure you're right. What is so utterly mind boggling - and is exhibit A of the NFL's cluelessness - is the league is "all about player safety (cough-ever since the concussion lawsuits-cough)" and yet it is the NCAA taking the lead in the helmet to helmet issue. How can they be behind the NCAA in this? It is beyond comprehension - the fucking ineptness. The Saints just got jobbed by the refs again - against the fucking Rams! The first time resulted in the new 'PI review'. The helmet to helmet, I hate but I understand and can relent on the need to review it - but the PI review - which is only happening because of the incredible blunder the whole free world witnessed it this new rule was a hollow attempt to do damage control.

It's hard to fathom how utterly incompetent Goodell etal are - how they are always behind the curve, always reactive, never proactive and cannot seem to get the basics fixed. maybe he is a dumb as he looks. A company with this kind of value, is just so consistently bumbling and inept. I don't know how they do it.

I guess its tough to find good help for only $31.7M a year these days
