Im not a big guy or anything but I played in highschool. sometimes an "injury" can feel like the end at the moment and it doesn't take but a minute or two to feel fine again. Ive had muscle cramps that were gone a play later. Ive had a sudden tingle and numbness in my arm and hand and have it be gone 30 seconds later. but in both instances yeah i had to come off and in the case of the muscle cramp couldnt walk on my calf.
So no I dont think that everytime a guy goes to the ground that he is faking it if he comes back in a play or 2 later.

I don't know if anyone faked injuries or not. But I will say the days of walking off the field for an injury are over when it comes to defenses facing HUNH offenses, and teams that play those kinds of offenses are just going to have to suck it up.

And I'm not talking about faking injuries, which is lame. I'm talking about coaches are going to tell a player to drop the ground for injuries they would have walked off the field for in the past. If you want to call that "faking" then whatever.

Because they can't walk off the field anymore. That is the reality of where football is right now. Against these offenses the only way a player who is injured for any reason, even something they can walk off the field for, can get off the field is if they drop. So if a player is wanting to come off the field, the coaches are going to tell them to drop.

Because if they don't, then the offense is just going to call a play while the defense is down a player, which in the case of an actual injury is even more lame than the defender going to the ground. Because if an injured player can walk off the field in time, then there wouldn't be substitution problems in general.

That's just the reality of it. Coach I think my arm is broke - drop to the ground. We can't substitute you without a stoppage in play. If we could, then we would be able to substitute during the plays with the non-injured.

Think about it.
You speak the truth!! Good point 4d20!!

Yes, that's what I'm saying.

In that scenario y'all would be coming off a huge win at home vs the Huskies and will be feeling pretty good about your chances at 5-2 3-1 but to take that next step, you would need to go up to Washington St and win. You can't come back from Pullman 5-3 3-2 with zero wins on the road.

But guess what?

Even if you do get by the Dubbs at home, if you're going anywhere this year ya gotta win on the road and the Cougs this year are no joke!

The PAC is for real!

As long as we have Leach we will be. But hey, at least he has shown a little bit of douche pride and nonsense drivel he spews and gone from 1 mil a win to 800k,

And to an earlier post, I was glad by the victory but just shows Leach is a tool by keeping Halliday in on one fucking leg and throwing the ball all over instead of either running the clock out or bringing in Apodaca. His shit works in the weak Big 12 but his rugby educated mind doesn't have what it takes to be in a league where everyone has a gimmicky style offense (except SC and Beaver State)

I don't argue with anything you said. I would say in this case he writhed around on the ground for a good long time which gave a decent rest to the other players. Dropping just so they can get off without being flagged makes sense, but did you see how long it was for both of them?

And I say again that it didn't cost UW the game so it really wasn't that big of a deal to me. You can't do anything to stop it without giving some penalty to teams who really do have a player hurt.

Since there is no rule on the books against it and there is no way to stop it you aren't going to see an end to it anytime soon. But you have to admit some are really dumb about it. Did you see that northwestern fake? Dude was totally fine, play was well past over, and out of nowhere he drops to the ground. :L Wish I could find a link to that one.

It is a part of the game now and teams running the uptempo will bitch about it while those who don't keep doing it.
So maybe, just maybe.....I'm not exactly sold but... Milking it for all its worth and whatever the refs allow can provide more time to recover, especially with dead arm stingers and sech.

So you never had a injury that you just needed to walk off or just needed a minute to get better?

Bullshit.

All I see in people like you are fans who just want to bend the rules to suit their own teams.

So now offenses are "bending rules" because you don't like how they play!!:L

Nah my shuttle time makes up for it. And I have great closing speed and ball skills just don't pay attention to the 5.03 40 and the 18 inch vertical, along with the 9 ft 2 broad jump. I have heart and that is all that matters.

How well can you fake injuries? 4d20 might put good word in for you at 'Bama:lol:
