That the NFL never addressed that to my knowledge is absurd. Especially considering that was the season that blows to the head of a QB became a primary focal point. Then they let the Broncos great Cam Newton's head like a piñata in SB50 without a flag in sight. And just for good measure, again in week one the following season.

Still makes my stomach turn how blatant it was.  They wanted to tell him "You think you're having fun and trying to run this league? Well, that ain't happening" And then they turn around crying about the slightest bit of contact on their treasured league faces.  They didn't want Cam the face of the league and let him get battered and injured into basically retirement.

Back to the catch, no catch, catch call--If the refs can't make up their mind on a call, then it should obviously just go straight to booth.  They should have the option to call a miss on their end and defer to an immediate booth confirmation. I just don't understand why they choose to make it so prone to human error and forcing more stoppage, team challenges, etc.

Amazon must be losing viewers. They're throwing flags like crazy trying to drag Seattle back into this game.

Pretty bad when the NFL is just an entertainment company and they keep trotting this crap out. Why not just let the refs throw a guy in a figure 4 or drop an elbow every now and then. It'd be about as legit as what we're seeing now.

      Some love for Steve Wilks

      By frankw · Posted

      I'm not saying he should be working in the NFL. He did deserve some criticism as DC there. But Kyle Shanahan certainly did use him as a convenient scapegoat. Now there is no one left to throw under the bus. Anyways he could find his way back to the league in some capacity who knows. But he's old school and in the NFL you either adjust or you get left behind. All the same no hard feelings toward him he's a good guy.

      Is it too early to lock up Horn to a long term deal?

      By CRA · Posted

      he has barely suited up for 50% of our games.  It matters pending how much of our cap and resources go that way.  If he cost in the ballpark of a Surtain? No thank you.  Let someone else  And as far we know what happens when we let talent walk away or trade them…..that’s a mixed bag.   should we of paid Norman, Bradberry at CB? They probably had earned the right to be called better than Horn at that moment of the decision.  Do we regret that? Do we regret Star walking? Can take it back to Spoon.  Flip side is probably Peppers.

      Bryce Young what a crazy statement

      By frankw · Posted

      We need to get better in the redzone. And yes that is an issue that involves all the moving parts. Oline receivers QB and playcalling. But Bryce himself has to lead the charge on that or surely we could face another blowout in one of these upcoming games. Every team no matter how good they are is going to face an opponent that imposes their will on them and requires the same in response. Those are the games where we have got to capitalize on drives. Honestly I get the sense that the Chiefs on some level overlooked us.  So while I am pleased we were as competitive as we were it certainly remains to be seen if this was the beginning for something new or just an anomaly. I think that's a perfectly fair take at this juncture.
