I doubt many agree with me but this punching the ball has gotten out of hand.

Yeah, I don't mind guys trying to force turnovers...but the #1 priority is to get the ballcarrier on the ground.

Pretty routinely see guys get 5-8 yards more than they should because defenders are more interested trying to rip or punch the ball out than making the tackle.

Here’s the thing. Do you think they always get 100 percent ball there? You are allowing the biggest and strongest out there a full wind up and whatever happens happens. If we are going to protect the qb we shouldn’t be allowing swings that truly could do some serious damage. Just my opinion, no problem with stripping the ball.

League don't care. Trent Williams punched a giants player last week and nothing happened

Jefferson and Chase both went before McCaffrey in most fantasy leagues. So far this year he has established himself as the king of fantasy again.

Ravens have straight given away 2 games, and the Steelers have looked like trash for the most part

If we are playing that game can I have the title we likely win if the refs call the illegal hit in the Peach Bowl or our K wasn't scared to death?

More so just bad process

He made more bad throws than good ones on that drive

Just because the defense dropped them doesn’t make them any less bad

are we talking the ND game? I can recall one ball that should have been picked. maybe another bad throw....and a few really nice throws.

But, yeah, QBs make bad throws all the time. Even the elite of the elite in the NFL. Hell, Hartman should have had a pick 6 on their drive before our scoring drive. for it to matter they need to be caught.
