anybody see that hit on Wheaton? Yes it was nasty and high but it would have been his gut if Wheaton hadn't ducked down. The only other option is to go at Wheaton's legs and I guarantee you Wheaton would not still be in this game. They are actually putting WRs in danger by calling these fouls.

Its called the wussification of Football. When did a solid hit become a personal foul. BUt truth is, they are slowly but surly ruling defense out of the game. Eventually they will just put flags on all the offensive players, and mittens on the defensive guys to prevent the ability to pull the flags.


JPP is half way ahead of the game. :lol:

SO... I thought leading with the crown of the helmet was a personal foul??

They are so wishy washy on the rules

Nah...only on a defenseless receiver or a QB. Runners are fair game.


I would rather see them throw it if some one launches the way Shitzer did than on an accidental bang bang play that it usually comes out on.

Shakier wasn't being dirty. His head was a little to the side of the body. It was a good play in my opinion and shit happens...and they are compensated for it.

Wow...the hit on Brown was a good call and he was out cold. Burfict cost his team big and then Pacman nailed his own coffin.

Am I the only one who thought Paxman didn't need to be flagged. Especially in that situation when you KNOW it wasn't unprovoked

According to today's players shit talk is part of the game so if Joey said something and Pacman pushed him then the moron deserved the penalty. The ultimate shit you can talk is "look at the scoreboard" at the end of a game. Burfict and Pacman took that away from their teammates.

Buffict was out of control all game and should have been benched by Lewis. Pacman on the other hand is just a moron. I understand what's on the line in a game like this and you need all your best players on the field, but when there is a chance one player can cost your team an important win you sit his ass. JMO
