NFL Week 14 -- Serious People?

The 49ers and Cowboys have run roughshod over their highly-touted defense.

 

I had that same thought, but their chances were a hell of a lot better with that touchdown than they were down three and facing second-and-15.

 

Man I watched that debacle. Raiders had seemingly ONE possession in Viking territory and then Renfrow promptly fumbled it away. Vikings missed one FG and made the last one. With the Vikings bullpen set up, that made for a tidy 3-0 two hit shutout.

My kids' flag football games had more offense and imagination. It wasn't '85 Bears v. Purple People Eaters either. Lowest score in an indoor football stadium ever. Terrible. Raiders' stadium is quite a modern beauty though outside and inside.

 

He did not check with the official about his positioning. Maybe he should have ...

Boy Mahomes and Reid are going to have some "serious 'splaining to do" now; is an official supposed to try to get the player's attention and then warn him??

 

This is all misdirected anger at Toney.

 

Exactly. And shows what complete fucking assholes they are - don't want to criticize a teammate, so they go ape-shit on an easy target, who was (CORRECTLY) doing his job.

 

Isn’t there an arm mechanic officials are to do if the tight end is covered? That said, that wasn’t the problem here.

Their only gripe would be the officials were going something or allowing something the entire game but forgot or didn’t on that play.

 

Oh, definitely.

But it wasn't a walkoff TD, which is how the Chiefs were portraying it.

I see the Bengals have won three straight and are back in the playoff hunt. I thought the CFP had eliminated them after Burrow was injured.

 

I've come around to this too.

 

This had to be called. They could have called the right tackle for not being on the LOS, too. He's two yards off the LOS. That's the next thing they need to start cracking down on.
