Blandino just contradicted himself on live television via the Dez ruling

 

[hornitosmonster]

So if Tate is ruled a runner after taking 3 steps how do you NOT rule Dez a runner after he took 3 steps and lunged for the freakin end zone??

because they make it up as they go

because they make it up as they go

Such a joke, it's sad what is happening to the NFL

According to Blandino he did establish himself as a runner because he was in the process of taking his third step.

I heard him say that and I disagree. In my opinion that ball was not secured before his second step.

It has nothing to do with the Dez or Calvin Johnson ruling because Tate wasn't going to the ground. That part of the play is clear.

I question whether the ball was secure myself it's definitely debatable.

The NFL has a real problem.....All these old commentators like Phil Simms and Dan Fouts. Point is....they are out of touch w/ reality....And try to be politically correct...

What is the new commentator gonna be like?

Just a passing floaty thought.....

Someday (soon hopefully)....a dose of reality will hit the TV. The day of calling a QB ______tty...when cleary that was a ____it pass.

Gary Barnidge is a crazy TE. Believe he's in the final year of his contract with the Browns, I'd sign him in the offseason to be behind Witten.

quote="Don Corleone, post: 6347856, member: 8465"]The best thing the NFL can do is get rid of the modern day equivalent of Gazoo on the Jetsons, Mike Pereira. He adds absolutely nothing to the game and was the first one to pipe up about Dez's non catch. I still think he influenced that call.[/quote]

LOL@the Great Gazoo reference from the Flintstones. Lol!

Why is Landry Jones playing, what I miss?

Dez wasn't going to the ground either he had established himself as a runner.

It must be nice to have a D like Denver.

 

[Floatyworm]

If Cleveland had any offense....they might be pretty good. Their D is impressing.

Dez was CLEARLY going to the ground and I'm not about to waste time arguing that again.

That's not the way we roll. They either take our 2nd round pick for him or no dice.

A 30 year old tight end with 70 career receptions. I think Dallas can do better.

 

[Danger]

The Commanders are done

 

[Risen Star]

The Commanders look like a Benny Hill compilation on defense this half.

 

[slick325]

Great adjustment and catch by Brandon Marshall in the Jets/Skins game.

Cleveland is actually getting some push in the run game....they just don't have a QB to threaten in the pass game. Sound familar?
