[quote=GridIron26;1241120]Just saw this news about Lorenzo Alexander. Kudos to him for making a name of himself after being a special teamer for years before he retires.

Love Lorenzo!! A class act with multi level talent, he played DT, OL and LB. i was impressed when he played OL a few games. He’ll always be a Redskin at heart.

I was at the Redskins-Bills game in Buffalo earlier this season, he got a huge ovation, maybe louder than anyone else.

Probably because most Redskins fans in attendance were also cheering for him like me.

Class act, hard hitting, played the right way. He thumped guys on ST.

Congratulations on a great career, from practice squad to Pro Bowl.

We were also 3-7 against the rest of the league. Being consistently terrible the entire season makes that easier to swallow.

I'm talking more in terms of DAL/NY competing for titles, I never felt like they would go deep in the playoffs the way the Eagles have. NY is a long ways removed from the Coughlin years.

Yeah, I got what you meant, my response was just tongue in cheek. I agree, I'll miss them both.

How the fudge does this not get called? is this something that would automatically be reviewed in NY or would Carroll have to challenge it (if he had challenges and a TO left)

If I was a seattle fan ... id be heated. Thats not even a gray area, thats clearly black and white PI. Something this new rule was suppposed to prevent.

1 - not called
2 - not reviewed
3 - reviewed by league with Riveron offering explanation - [url]https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/saints-burned-by-non-call-again-pete-carroll-says-pass-interference-was-missed-in-niners-win-over-seahawks/[/url]

I get the non-call if the officials adjudged it a non-foul in realtime, but no review? And I don't agree with Riveron's assessment. Yes, Hollister made contact but after initial contact, he was held. It's either holding or a PI, though I'd go for the former as the ball wasn't in the air at the time of the hold.

However, the best outcome the Seahawks would get in either situation is 1st and goal at the 1, and they already blew that situation with a delay penalty (WTF Pete Carroll?). I'm not sure this call changed the outcome.

Kind of shocked only 2 head coaches have been canned so far after the season ended, bringing the season total to 4. I wonder if Jerry Jones is actually thinking about keeping Garrett. He is scheduled to meet with him a second time.

Re: Week 17 Games
 

It still amazes me how much hype Bill Bellichick's assistants get every year, despite the lack of success of all but one of his assistants have had as HCs (O'Brien). Even with O'Brien's winning record, his assistants (Patricia, Crennel, Mangini, and McDaniels) have a 133-171 record as head coaches (take O'Brien's record and they are a combined 81-138).

Also, how can any team hire McDaniels after the stunt he pulled with the Colts the last time he was up for a HC position (for those that don't remember, he rescinded his offer from the Colts after the media had reported his hiring).

Sounds like Garrett and Jerry are haggling about firing or just not being re-signed. Not sure why that would make a difference for either.
