DCarp1231 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 That was a blatant illegal helmet-to-helmet targeting hit, but alas I am no NFL referee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I don't know what else it should be, but it's such a killer. Seems like the "penalty" is so extreme for such a simple mistake. I'm not sure why it isn't treated like any other fumble that goes out of bounds, where it's returned to the offense at the point where the ball came out of the player's hands. It's too big of a swing to have it be a touchback. It's really one of the worst rules IMO. That ended up being a 10-point swing, and you simply can't come back from that against a team like the Chiefs. It was properly called, just a lousy rule.

Fumble out of bounds anywhere else and the offense retains possession, but fumble in the end zone and the defense gets possession? Makes no sense. Move the offense back to the 20 or something, but making it a turnover is brutal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re the only team I don’t want making it. Actually Saints too, them for trying to murder Favre for their only ring. They don’t deserve :censored:. Brown, Bills, Bucs deserve it more. We've only had one year and you got to experience 20. Lighten up, Francis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fumble it, and it's catastrophe.

Is trying to prove that Dan Marino technically "almost won" a Super Bowl so you can say Warren Moon and the Oilers failed because of racism that important to you? You picked the wrong hill to die on. BTW the last Houston Oilers starting QB was Steve McNair. Another black guy. He made it to the Super Bowl with that team. Granted it was after they moved to Tennessee, but they had the same ownership structure in place. And McNair came a hell of a lot closer to winning in his Super Bowl appearance than Marino did in his.

The refs ignored a dangerous helmet-to-helmet hit on that play and once again made the league's rhetoric on "player safety" look like a joke.

DG_ThenNowForever Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 That's really really scary to watch. Mahomes' brains turn into scrambled eggs and then 2 minutes later we all cheer for the big play. Ugh.
