Both Bennett brothers are straight bitches. The other one faked an injury to quit his way out of green bay

Agree with the first statement but not the other. He's on IR now with the Pats for that same injury.

Everyone used to roast tampas coach for playing hard vs victory formations.  I never had a problem with it, but its dumb when your down at least 2 scores like they often were. Theres nothing in the rules saying you have to give up during victory formations.  If youre within a score might as well keep fighting.

LOL uh no and they would never do that...they won't be doing anything that increases the length of a game even though that idea is bad enough on it's own to be easily dismissed.

 

It would rarely be used. It would force teams to play out the whole game. If a team is down by 7 points with 1 minute left to play and no timeouts, asking the winning team to move the ball forward instead of backward to keep the clock moving isn't that proposterous. I mean, if you can't get a foot past the line of scrimmage to keep the clock moving then that's a pretty sad team. 

Kneeling might be respectful in a blowout, but in a close game, in a sport where 250 lb millionaire athletes are slamming each other into the dirt, kneeling is a little too pussy footing for me. Make them play it out for another minute. 

And how about next time, you explain why it's a bad idea. Instead of just saying "LOL uhhh bad idea" . It really doesn't get you're point across very well

I can get what he's saying. They could impose a rule that if the score is close (Say within one possession) in the final 2 minutes of the game then you have to move the ball past the line of scrimmage or else the clock stops. It would definitely keep close games more interesting. 

No fug that, that would make it whack. The losing team shouldn't have gotten themselves in that situation in the first place. In football if a qb gets sacked, goes down, no matter how, the clock keeps running. Don't change the basic rules of football.

Golic said that? He's an idiot if so. Every team goes into victory formation in that circumstance and no one else hurls themselves at people but dirty Michael Bennett 

This is why you aren't invited to my Thanksgiving game. Its not really a game just Calvinball that has been known to continue on the trip home

I think you missed what I said. Or maybe I worded it wrong

It would only apply in the final 2 minutes of the game if the score is within 8 points and the team leading has the ball. All the team has to do is move the ball past the line of scrimmage and the clock keeps moving. If the losing team has the ball and they get sacked then the clock keeps moving. It would only end up applying to maybe 10% of the games in the whole season, I doubt even that much. 

Not saying it's the way to go, but I am saying kneeling in close games needs to be gotten rid of. Or at least don't start an uproar because players go crazy trying to force a fumble on a kneel. That's their only option.

To be fair, Golic was already an idiot.

As to the topic, yes  it's bulls--t, not only because it's classless but I can't ever recall seeing it work (at least not in the NFL, anyway).

The thing was, Bennett had no desire to get the ball, looked to me like he was intentionally trying to injury a player like Suh usually does.  Straight garbage.

He then tries to fight the fans. I wonder if they had a problem with that.
