HTTRDynasty Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Saw this somewhere: Quote In the last 16 games that Rodgers has started and finished, the Packers are 11-4-1. Two of the four losses are to the Redskins, who have outscored the Packers 73-41 in those games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lavar703 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Clay Matthews didn’t commit a penalty and the refs made up for it by calling the Redskins for about 4 penalties in a row after the fact. And neither was Payne’s. It’s football for Christ sakes and if they want to change it they are going to lose fans like they never have before.

Yeah, I mean when I played defense, this was about as clean a sack as I could get. His hit on Alex was perfect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Payne should have been called too. They spoke about it all day yesterday on the radio. Bad rule,right call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeT14 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Did anyone watch MNF last night? There were like 5 personal fouls for roughing the QB on two possessions. You could even the referee was lackadaisical about calling it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSkinGM Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 I think the rule stands but common sense will prevail real soon. Unless the Q B gets hit in the knees or head or picked up and slammed or hit late . It's all good ! The Owners will be making some clandestine calls .. cause it's going to effect their bottom line .

Jeezy Fanatic Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 The issue is, I think the refs are calling the rule as best they can, but it's just a really bad rule. Some of the penalties thrown for hits on Ben last night were absurd, if you don't bring him down shoulder to body like that, how are you supposed to bring him down, he's huge.

The NFL put out a statement today saying the rule is not being enforced properly. I guess we’ll see if it changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, Smoot gave a good example of him trying to tackle Ben or a QB like Cam’s size. As Smoot said, I’m not even 200 pounds, it’s hard for me to tackle a 230-240 pound QB, I need to take them down by any means necessary! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad rule,right call. I literally don't see how Matthews was supposed to do anything else. He didn't really bring all his weight down. He didn't pick him up and drive him into the ground. He didn't flop down on him. He simply tackled him. The guy on the bottom getting tackled is going to have the weight of the guy on top of him. <=== that is just high school physics. If you had shown me that hit by Matthews as a textbook example of proper tackling, I'd agree. So if it is the correct call per the rule, then the rule needs to be eliminated ASAP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
