Not a good start for the Seahawks, and it also doesn't help that Geno Smith seems to go temporarily blind on third and fourth downs and can't see pass rushers

I think the entire state of Wisconsin is at Lumen Field tonight.

I was shocked at how loud the Packers chant was when Seattle had the ball

It seems the game moves a little too fast for Sam Howell.

Call me a pansy if you want, but I didn't like that tackle on Geno last night and I guess by NFL rule, it's not considered a foul, but that doesn't mean it wasn't dirty in my eyes.

/That kind of dive at a QB's legs in the pocket is a penalty in the CFL, by the way.

I don't remember the hit that he took but I always thought the NFL put a rule in after Tom Brady was hit low by Bernard Pollard and tore his ACL that you cannot go low on a quarterback.

Or maybe that rule was when they're in the pocket, was Geno out of the pocket when he was hit?

/oh Christ never mind I just found this bullshit on Twitter




This is the same league that misses a blatant facemask every week on somebody who is carrying the ball. Which makes me wonder is not one of the seven officials on the field looking at the ball carrier?!?

He was backpedaling due to the Packers pack rush, but still in the pocket in my opinion.

Yeah I found the hit and edited the post above. What a goddamn stupid rule having at least 1 foot on the ground

The officiating crew missed another blatant facemask on Caleb Williams while he was in the pocket with the ball, how in the hell is there no official seeing these week after week?

WTF are these Vikings uniforms?

Is there an eye in the sky or video review that can ping the zebras that they missed a personal foul?

They have replay assist which will call down and overturn plays so that teams don't have to challenge. In two games I've watched this weekend the announcers have said the NFL is in talks about adding facemask penalties to the replay assist because there's been a slew of them missed this season.

The fact that you need to declare an onside kick has to be the lamest rule in the NFL.

To quote a great poster on here, they must call the league office and say “Yes, we’re using it.”

Look at the big man running with the pigskin lol

Erin Andrews was covering the Ravens-Steelers game today. I told my friends that she used to cover the Thrashers 25 years ago and was super hot (she still looks great imo). I couldn't find any Thrasher pictures but found these.

Remember when she covered the California Penal League sports?
Right after she kept stealing food from McDonald's.

Damn, that kick might have been good from 57 yards.

Seahawks are going to get one more chance, but they are out of timeouts.

Welp, game over.

What an amazing season the Cowboys have had

No way.... ABSOLUTELY NO WAY. We get blown out In the playoffs this year

 

[dare2be]

Shit, you preempted my ability to say that about the Steelers.
