I think he was tripped on that play near the left sideline, 2nd half. But the Ref didn't throw the flag.

If memory serves, not a single pass interference or illegal contact penalty was called the entire game.  Its been a while since I have seen a game with no PI or illegal contact penalties called.  At least the refs were consistent.

Funchips appears to be improving every game. 

He still doesn't have the chemistry yet with Cam that KB showed last year, but he's getting there.

He's still under the radar and right now, that's exactly what we need as Ginn and Olsen are garnering double and sometimes even triple-coverage from secondary's. 

One thing is for sure, Cotchery is benefitting greatly from all the attention and he's not disappointing. 

Its incredible that Cam is capable of throwing to any one of our receivers/RBs on any given drive.

A dink to Tolbert, a screen to Stewart, two seam passes to Olsen and Funchess, an out-route to Ginn and a hitch route to Cotchery. And even Bersin and Dickson are getting in on the action. If CB was on the field, he'd get attempts his way too. 

Not many teams can say they have the personnel or chemistry to have this type of production on any-given drive.

This is a true team in every sense of the word and to top it all off, this type of offense is anchored by the rushing attack wether it be a 40-yard starting position or by going down the field on an 80-yard drive.

Yeah, I didn't notice any either.

And though I did feel PI should have been called on that Funchess attempt. I agree with you, the officiating was consistent as it wasn't called on both sides (though I noticed a notable trip, and Eugene on the radio felt the same way).

But yes, I wound say it was one of the better crews this year.

I agree with you about the trip, but then I felt that Thomas Davis was guilty of PI on an earlier play when Dallas had to settle for a fg earlier in the game.  Which is why I believe they were consistent.

All I know is he keeps beating dudes deep.

He's like a more athletic version of moose/LaFell. 

I agree. Was only thinking of Moose, though. LaFell never really hit his stride with us. Now Moose... he needs a lot more credit than he gets. He's a part of why Smitty was so successful.
