LOL... Got'em

Anyone want to translate for the Twitter illiterate?

The website Pro Football Talk linked an article on their twitter account concerning whether or not the shortened practice limits due to the newest collective bargining agreement were playing a factor in the number of quarterback injuries this season. Derek Anderson, a quarterback for the Carolina Panthers, said that was a stupid thing.

I'm not sure what needs to be translated.

Well, that's what I read.  I didn't know if I was missing something.  Not all of us know all there is to know about social media.

One way to prevent injuries to QB's could be by flagging players for roughing regardless of the age of the QB...Nah, that sounds silly.

Hochulis excuse was bullshit, but not sure about the roughing call. QBs lose all of the protection of roughing the passer when they leave the pocket. It seemed pretty bang-bang to me.

But I also feel like the roughing call on 99 was bullshit. Looked like he just tripped or got pushed into Mccown. 

But what do I know?

'Roughing the passer' smoothly and seamlessly transitions to 'unnecessary roughness' outside of the pocket, especially when the QB, or any other player in question, is out of bounds. I imagine Cam wasn't lobbying for a roughing the passer after being hit on the sideline.

And I also agree about KK.  Some awful, awful calls yesterday.

I don't believe he was out of bounds when the hit occurred. He was close though. We never really got a good look at it.

The officiating all year has been complete horse poo.

    • I think it was less Tepper mandating it and more Tepper finally relenting and allowing it. I've always maintained that I think what caused Reich to be fired midseason was likely him going to Tepper and saying something along the lines of "Either let me play Dalton and five this team a chance to compete or just go ahead and fire me now."
    • I honestly think it was a mutual, collective decision. Canales might have been hired to be the Panthers head  coach because he was the best chance to get Bryce where he needed to be to succeed and did everything...I mean he and Morgan did EVERYTHING possible to create a successful situation for Bryce. And it was obvious... painfully obvious that not only was it not working, the team was losing and it was effecting everything. Canales was hired because they thought he could help Bryce, but he was hired as the PANTHERS head coach, not Bryce's personal coach. If everyone could see this was failing far beyond what anyone could have and it didn't look like it was anything that could be fixed quickly....then that everyone who could see would have to include Canales himself who is responsible for not just Bryce, but the whole damn team has to have looked at what it was doing to the team and their chances to win and said, we have to choose what is best for Bryce or the Panthers. He came in and said he had no personal attachment to any player, and that means he has no personal attachment to Bryce. He's going to do what is best to help the team win. If that means benching Bryce, then that's what he's going to do. Did he make this call without Teppers blessing or input? Hell no. Did they come into the Monday meeting having both come to the same conclusion regarding Bryce? I would have a hard time arguing that wasn't the case. All in leadership has to have seen it wasn't just not working...it was killing the team and they had to make this switch for the betterment of the team soon or else lose the season completely. No way would Canales had bern campaigning for Bryce to stay in there. He's not that dumb. Sometimes regardless of the work you do, you have to realize when it's futile and the earlier you recognize it, the better off you will be.
