Reids dirty hit on Watson


Paa Langfart

Recommended Posts

Don't care...fine him, don't fine him...I like a safety that will lay the wood.  Just have to be careful not to draw flags and hit late.  I wouldn't call it a dirty play, it was just a late hit, poo happens sometimes  Nothing has been said that he is a dirty player, never heard anything from players in the league that he is dirty.  So let's reduce the hyperbole.

he hates Watson because of the Players Coalition....was looking to take a shot at him

and he did take a shot...a cheap shot that cost our team 15 yds...his personal agenda again

LOL. Unsurprisingly stupid take from bull123. Welp, this thread is complete.

Then why did he go back and kneel beside him to see if he was ok?

It’s OK to say he plays good football and is all over the field, and it’s also OK to say that was a dirty, stupid play. Both can be true. And Reid’s case, it is. It was a bonehead play and it cost the team 15 yards.

Let's be 100% honest here.

In all likelihood, Eric wanted to get his hands on Watson because of the Twitter stuff.  Could have done a better job at that, obviously.

On the flip side, the only reason this is even a fugging thread is because of his views.  If it was Colin Jones, you would "love his intensity."

It's time to get over it.

What you meant to say, "...is because he's not white, let me use a white guy to prove my point." Colin Jones never gets close enough to have a borderline type enforcer hit so it's a bad example. No one here has ever said that they "loved Jones intensity". 

As far as i'm aware, most fans here will call it like they see it. The hit was dirty, the radio call guys saw it, the TV call guys saw it, and most of the Huddle saw it. Irrespective of whatever views Reid holds, it isn't a hit you want to see from your guys. Can't complain when a Falcon goes for Cam hard and then say Eric did a good job here.

It was a hit launched before the guy hit the ground and nothing outside of the bounds of strong safety play in a regular game. His timing was off just a beat and that drew the flag, and rightfully so. Half a second the other way and it is a legal and expected hit.

Adding in all these other factors is the same as believing the Hulk Hogan/Macho Man feud promos. Quit marking out and let's watch football, not political plate spinning.

    • yeah. winter backpacking trips were the most miserable and amazing experiences. same with the coldest and snowiest hunting  experiences. i love being in it. makes for incredible memories. the worse it was, the more i ended up loving it. made the greatest memories.  i just want to get out of it afterwards.
    • I forgot about Jackson...definitely elite.  The sad part of your list is that 2 of them were 'there for the taking for the Panthers'.  Rumor has it that Hurney loved Herbert and was vetoed on trying to trade up.  And rumor has it that Frank & McCown wanted Stroud.  I believe both rumors.  
    • I went on a solo elk hunt in the Flat Tops. It was awesomely miserable. LOL It was a late season hunt, I think third season and it was forecasted to snap off cold with highs in the upper thirties and lows in the single digits. fug it, I'm going anyway. They were wrong. The highs were in the low 20s and the lows were in the negative teens. I shivered so hard the first night I thought my teeth were going to break. It was the only time I've ever been legit concerned that I might be in trouble. Crawled out of my sleeping bag and got a fire started and suffered through the night bundled up next to the fire. I slept the next two nights literally wearing every stitch of clothing I'd brought with Nalgenes full of near boiling water in the bottom of my sleeping bag. That was the only way to have non-frozen water in the morning anyway. There was about a foot of snow on the ground and the melt/freeze crust was almost enough to support your weight but you'd go crashing through just as you went or make your step. It was exhausting travel and every step sounded like a rifle shot. Hunting was basically impossible. I never saw an elk in those four days, only saw 5-6 deer. LOL It was brutal but I loved it. Absolutely beautiful country that is never been to before and haven't been back since. I needed that four day complete break from society fighting for my life against the elements. I'm weird like that.
