Why are you so confident he will remember?

(Oh, wait, you DID say “should”…)

While that may very well be true, ummm…you don’t think the Lions might sweep them? Seems to me their odds are pretty good given that they’re the only NFC North team that’s beat them so far…

Instead of talking about “football moves” made or unmade, they should talk about “securing the ball”. In the case of CJs catch, he secured the ball and then landed on both feet. Done. It’s a catch.

Of course, you’d see a lot more fumbles this way.

McFadden’s jump yesterday was funny, you see some guys barely get a cheek on the wall, his whole body went over and just his feet were hanging on edge of the wall. Funny but not funny if anything there has .0001% to do with what is wrong with his groin.

Something has to give this weekend. The 0-3 Vikings visit the 0-3 Chiefs.

I have no words…

I dont think anyone would be too surprised if they both dropped to 0-4.

Secondly – what is so difficult to understand about carrying the ball over the goal line versus receiving the ball in the end zone? The play is over and dead if you have control of it going into the endzone once the ball breaks the plane. If the player is trying to gain control of the ball while already in the endzone, then obviously then need to maintain that control.

WHY CANT THE GIANTS DO THIS YEAR IN AND YEAR OUT we would be contendors every yr..if eli can do what he did last week each week or atleast look that good each wk id ont see why we cant win 10-11 games and make another run..

our season is all on eli. he does what he did wk 1 n u see the result but he does what he did to eagles and u got an elite type qb who can destroy you. Cmeeeeeeeen ELI

cant think ur gonna run wild every wk and not take more hits than a normal QB..that the loss ( ) like a man n keep it movin! even tho vick just got washed by my Defense..

You are nutz if you think this is hennes fault.

7.8 ypt average 4 tds 3 ints, 2 came on desperation last plays. Almost 900 yards passing and 10 carries for 100 yards rushing.

Here is where u should be crying. Hes been SACKED ELEVEN TIMES! Cant tell you how many dropped balls Ive seen. Hennes a different qb this year, unfortunately you are just going down your checklist of “to do’s” when a team collapses.

After watching Bill Polian these past years, I think this strategy is highly possible. And Andrew Luck can learn and follow the path set out by the Packers and Aaron Rogers of replacing a Hall of Fame quarterback

Too easy.

That would be an awful, awful move.

Also, it would result in a little bit of pressure on Luck.

I agree, with the exception that Irvin has to go. When he’s all hyped up, it’s a really hard thing to watch.

As far as Cruz’s TD catch is concerned, he made the catch, got both feet down then made a “football move” by turning toward the goal line, essentially establishing possession, then got tackled in the end zone.

The league really has two responsibilities here. To protect the players from drunk idiots and to protect drunk idiots from the players.

Really? You can’t imagine a much better situation than a rookie quarterback? How about, I don’t know, an established stud quarterback?

It was a TD, and the rule was POORLY interpreted and POORLY applied in that instance, as well as others since then.

I agree that the rule MUST be more clearly defined as to which situations it is to be used for, and what constitutes the end of the play.

However, to suggest that he’s “taking hits to draw penalties” is absolutely absurd. This isn’t about him taking a hit AND drawing a flag, it’s about ONCE he takes a hit whether he gets the flag or not…and he hasn’t (if you don’t see the distinction, refresh yourself on introductory statistics, namely conjunctive events vs. conditional probabilities).

To this latter point, suggesting that (based off a sample size of ONE week that had a few examples) he’s wrong that other QBs have been treated differently in the PAST, is completely ignorant. Other QBs HAVE gotten different treatment in the past, regardless of missed calls a week ago. To ignore the past few seasons where protecting the quarterback has grown to be a bigger concern and focusing on one single week in the current season is short-sighted and weak.

HEY YOU DARN KIDS, GET OFF MY END ZONE!
