That has always been the rule.

Yep. Just looked that rule up. Inside or outside at or above the nameplate is verboten. Thanks for the edification.

If one of the other teams in the NFC East goes on a run and closes the gap with the Cowboys, then all of the "The Cowboys can afford to sit Dak, because they have the NFC East already won." takes are going to age badly.

They only run for the other teams in the East will be their fans running to the bathroom,.

So no player should tackle anyone from behind…

Everything below the nameplate is fair game. A defender can drag a ball carrier down from behind by the jersey or undershirt, so long as he doesn't violate the provisions stated above.

Why are defenses afraid to go after Brady?

 

[NickZepp]

He’s walking kind of funny/weird. You can tell his walk cycle is off.

Eh he's carrying his bag with him how are you walking normally with your baggage behind you?

 

[coogrfan]

Do you mean why are the afraid to blitz him? Probably because he has seen every blitz combo known to man.

 

[NickZepp]

Sounds like Winston tore his knee.

 

[Reid1boys]

Of course Winston went down.. hes the guy I inserted in place of Dak......smh

 

[NickZepp]

btw we need to rename these threads non cowboy games instead of early game threads because we always see them become all day game threads in the end.

 

[NickZepp]

Washington Football is losing to Denver nicely so far.

 

[Reid1boys]

Saints are playing pretty inspired. Looking like the game against the Saints could be a good one. IM going, so I hope so.

I walk normally with a luggage bag behind me. To the naked normal eye, he’s walking normally/okay, but you can kinda tell there’s still a limp or soreness there. He really might not play tonight.

Right now I'm more shocked that he plays than him not

This Saints QB is ripping off Noochs side arm motion.

Refs are making some "interesting" call against the Bucs. Why is it sometime a guy can hit a QB in the head and it is okay, and other times an inadvertent swipes is a 15 yard penalty?

I think they called the penalty because he kept playing without his helmet which you aren't supposed to do.

 

[Deep_South]

The refs should get credit for that field goal. They just kept throwing flags all the way down the field until the Aints scored.

 

[NickZepp]

Wow Brady throwing INTs now. Saints should go into halftime with a lead.

 

[Creeper]

Brady looks 44 today.

Brady's killing my fantasy team today! 2 picks so far! SMH!
