You burn the damn clock first.
Yup. Good play.and they let him score
Yep, clear as day. The smart play would have been to slide and burn some time.Philly let him score on that
You can't. The Eagles have time outs.You burn the damn clock first.
Not yet the Jets can still Jet this game.Cowboys caught a big break today.
It was forcible. Did you not see the player get injured on the play? Or are you saying he was faking?The exact letter of the law is this: "It is a foul if a player initiates a block when his path is toward or parallel to his own end line and makes forcible contact to his opponent with his helmet, forearm, or shoulder."
The key word is FORCIBLE CONTACT. The Jets receiver didn’t BLOW UP the Eagles defender, he merely ESTABLISHED POSITION first and legally blocked his opponent…..there was NOTHING forcible about it.
He never launched into him at any point.. I stand by INTERPRETATION of the rule…….and it a wuss rule to speed up the wussification of football. The offense ALREADY a has too many rules promoting their matriculation down the field as it is.
