especially when the other team has a rookie QB... in the playoffs... on the road... against the #1 defense. 1/18/2009 10:59:13 PM |

just to firmly put this to bed, the 3-game sweep scenario has happened 18 times since the merger of the AFL & NFL
the team that won the first 2 games went 11-7 in the game going for the sweep

yep, they sure do.
i'm assuming you meant they draw penalties for helmet to helmet hits. that's the defenseless receiver rule. N/A in this case.

It's been said, just reiterating...
How hard is it to coach a guy to take a knee/fall down after what is otherwise a game winning INT? Referring to the end of the Cardinals game. It's especially bad considering what happened earlier in the game where they fumbled during an interception return. Don't try to pad your stats, try to win the game. Just take a knee.
Kinda reminded me of that NCSU game a few years back where we intercepted in the opponent's end zone. The guy runs it out a yard, then runs it back into the end zone to scramble around then luckily makes it out a few yards to prevent the safety. Take a knee and it would have been put out to the 20.
Coaches should cover things like this. 1/19/2009 7:23:55 AM |
