NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

Refs reviewed it and still made the wrong call

Texans fans are mad about a lot more than that it seems

DTRs totals look worse than reality because of all the drops but yes I'd prefer Flacco.

Preface this with saying I love my former Bruins...

How many drops? Because he was at a Tebow-like completion %.....

Flacco is better even if he is washed because he is a vet....you just gotta protect him because he is a statue.

Panthers fired their coach. Not sure why anyone would want that job

This is ridiculous now

 

[DJ Fieri]

Frank Reich was fired.

Damn.

It's a major rebuild and Young doesn't have many weapons. Thielen is no longer a #1 receiver.

 

[DJ Fieri]

I think Tepper tries to swing for the fences and land Belichick or Harbaugh.

Doubt either will be interested but I think he will try to get a name guy with this next hire.

 

[thunderc]

Yeah when a guy like Reich doesn’t even get a full year that’s a huge warning sign.

Yeah...Reich isn't some scrub HC.

He did a solid job in Indy.

He'll resurface elsewhere. I didn't even think he even should've been on the hot seat, given that roster. Tepper is proving to be a terrible owner. Between his Panthers and Charlotte FC teams, he's fired 4 coaches in the past 18 months.

Enjoy, Panthers fans.

Are you saying NFL refs are terrible, lol? Just a few blatant ones I noticed...

Darnell Washington clearly held Pratt on a touchdown run in the Steelers' win. They even threw a flag, but inexplicably picked it up.

Josh Allen was pulled down via two horse collar penalties (front and back, even tearing the jersey) just before halftime, instead was called for grounding for no receiver in the area. That phantom receiver (Gabe Davis) fell on the lose ball immediately to make sure it wasn't a fumble call, as he was only a few steps away. This game was horribly officiated (loss still ultimately on the Bills, had the OT TD there for the taking).

Jags go down the field for the deciding TD on the back of two highly questionable (ticky-tack at best) interference calls.

Both were the correct ruling. Know the rules.

Doesn’t matter. There’s no way he’s the intended target. There’s no plausible way to claim he’s throwing the ball to Davis. He’s winging the ball to avoid a sack. You can’t do that. Intentional grounding.

This game was horribly officiated (loss still ultimately on the Bills, had the OT TD there for the taking).

In the 2nd half when the 10 point lead was blown the Bills had 1 penalty for 5 yards. The Eagles had 3 flags for 25 yards.

AOC to Meyers for a TD.

 

[bksballer89]

Calling that non horse collar on allen the correct call is idiotic. Admit your team got away with one and leave it as that so you don't look like a ridiculous homer

The only calls that counted vs the Eagles all day long were false starts. There was an illegal contact that was offsetting.

There is no way that Washington didn't hold. He had the defender in a bear hug and a fist full of the back of the defender's jersey.

Josh was first pulled down by the jersey collar in front, then in the back on that play. Textbook horse collar.
