    Unreal defensive from first half performance from the Patriots. Golf ng the Ravens to ten points is very impressive.
    Offense has looked better too.

    Indeed. Decision making in the ravens O is really helping too. And the weather...

    Ravens back in it, Patriots have to score on this drive.

    Huge win for the Patriots. We seem to have found something that works in offense.

    Leader ng with the crown if the helmet is a different foul.


    It is if you hit the QB in the pocket.
    Any contact above the shoulders it below the knee on the QB on the in the pocket are illegal.

    .

    AS mentioned previously, it was not a penalty and a bad call.

    one of the worst pass interference calls I've ever seen.

    I put up the rules there for you. Did you read them? Did you see the last note?

    Crikey, if I didn't know you I'd presume you have watched very little football with this overblown statement.

    Also it does appear that he slams him down which is also roughing the passer.

    Every media and ex-player I've seen commenting on it agrees that it was one of the worse roughing the passer calls they've ever seen. The helmet narrative is rubbish, even if you want to claim they touched it wasn't forcibly. Regarding the whole thing, the rusher was clearly pushed so it could have negated a foul.

    It was a real game turning moment, despite how the depleted 49ers could have still won if they didn't join the refs in shooting themselves in the foot several more times as the game went on.

    Agree, this is pretty much how they are coached to do this, can't do it any better than that in fact.

    Just to continue the above discussion;

    Saints’ QB Drew Brees has multiple rib fractures on both sides of his chest and a collapsed lung on the right side, per @WerderEdESPN.

    Jesus Christ, obviously hope he makes a full recovery, how long will that keep him out for?

    He's one tough man saying he didn't expect it to keep him out. It's very hard to know how long he'll be out with that. At his age it could be career ending, I hope it's not.

    Hopefully it doesn't end this way.

    Sustaining an injury doesn't make the play a foul. Also this:
    The three fractured ribs on the left side are believed to have occurred in the game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week. They did not show up as such on the X-ray performed at the time, possibly because of inflammation, but they were clearly seen on the CAT scan performed Monday.

    So he was obviously carrying some sort of injury heading into the game. None of which makes that roughing the passer call correct.

    Was just going to say that, he was injured last week, the fractures didn't show up because of swelling around the ribs. The hit was grand, he is 6ft tall which is short for an nfl quarterback, it is the land of giants. What are you supposed to do, that would be a chest high hit on Cam Newton or Josh Allen, when I saw it, it was a sack, shouldn't be a penalty, don't know what all the fuss was about. There was no targeting his head, the sack was just a rush, and the helmets brushed each other, but the rusher didn't lower or raise his head, it was at that level all the way through the sequence. But it's the Saints, and they get lots of phantom calls, just like the Packers and Patriots.

    I can't believe the bold has to be explained to anyone here, especially someone who earlier stated that your comment implied that 'you have watched very little football'.

    If sustaining injury meant a team were given an automatic penalty in their favour, the 49ers would likely be undefeated based on the amount of free yards they would have gotten from the refs. :D

    Jason Pierre Paul has a pile of fingers missing and he plays every week, think he got an interception yesterday, and one of them Griffin brothers for Seattle has only one hand, there are some tough cookies in that league.

    Yeah that's a hell of a lot different to three fractured ribs in a heavy contact sport.

    Nick Foles will have an interception beside his name already but it's Anthony Miller who caused the interception.
    Bears D forced a fumble and the offense immediately give the ball back.

    First Bill Lazor play is a WR screen and the 2nd is a throw to Miller who f*cks up again.

    Not the best start.

    It's good to have a little continuity when making big changes. The offense will feel very much at home.

    It's depressing how damn good our defense is and it's being wasted. They are just phenomenal, they belong in the super bowl, but they won't be within an asses roar of it.

    If they press reset after this season we can say goodbye to the likes of Hicks, Mack and Fuller. They'll rip the defense apart for draft capital. Will be sad to see if it happens.

    Lamar Miller looks a more sensible option in the backfield if you want to set up play action.

    Yep, it was a defense set up to have a window to win. Easy to say now but, the right pick in 2017 and we would probably have done it.
