[quote=NC_Skins;1185745]Why? A rookie making a rookie mistake at bad tackling.[/quote]

Yeah that was a mental mistake, he should have slowed up, waited for the ball to get there, and tackled him. No doubt he's gonna stew on this one for a while, as he should. Plenty of time for him to get better though.

[quote=SFREDSKIN;1185747]I know he’s not as good as Kirk but it’s a great story, if they make it and win the SB he could be the next Kurt Warner. The kid has got moxie.[/quote]

I agree to the moxie.

Lol Kurt warner.

Re: NFL Playoffs thread (2017-18)
 

That non tackle by the Saints safety might have been the single worst thing ive ever seen a player do. Rookie or not. Who cares. Lots of rookies play and dont do that. What the hell r u thinking man. Wow.

No overexaggeration, worst individual defensive play I've ever seen.



It was so bad, I almost think he threw the game.[/QUOTE]



Couldn’t agree more. I find it extremely hard to believe he did that to the point i think he also might have done it on purpose. Unreal. The only thing u cannot do is duck out of his way. Part of me feels bad for him but that seriously is what i would have done if it was me. Lol. Duck my head and get out of the way. Unreal.
Edit:
And enough with incredible play or throw or catch. In that situation nobody is going to hit the quarterback and risk a 15 yarder and another play. Nobody is going to commit PI. The defense is basically giving u the throw and catch to that point of the field. Why in the hell are u running at the wr like u want to knock the ball out after the catch. Let him catch it so what? How are there no other db’s anywhere in the vicinity. If that was the Skins losing like that id be throwing up from disgust still. Probably hospitalization necessary. Cannot even imagine.

Would it be something if the Eagles/Vikings meet in MN with the Jaguars and not the Patriots?!

Re: NFL Playoffs thread (2017-18)
 

The kid was told not get a PI penalty. So, he was just trying to hit the receiver and completely whiffed on the tackle.

I don’t think he whiffed, it looks to me like he was worried about the PI so he held up and sort of got out of the way. But at that point take the PI. You know u r the last line of defense. You cannot in any world avoid the hit/tackle for fear of a PI call there. And if that was a whiff it was literally the worst attempt at a tackle ever. You just gotta let him catch it. Sure Diggs could have still made u miss, but chances are he doesn’t if u r there waiting. Just grab him , hold on for dear life, and wait for an assist on the tackle at the very least. I like both the teams, i do not gamble. I have zero vested interest in the game, but I am absolutely tormented by that play. Lol.

Would be awesome. I cannot believe the Eagles keep winning without Wentz. If he was healthy I think they literally steamroll everyone. Jim Schwartz is a defensive guru. Rex Ryan could have kept him in Buffalo and probably saved his job. I dont know why it took so long for someone to hire him. What is up with that year off he had? Why in the hell couldn’t we have gotten him? Im pulling for the Jags now. But that Eagles Defense is nasty. Just nasty. And Minnesota looking at home field for the Superbowl. Great games still to come. Maybe one of these years the Skins will be in the mix.

Agree. You have to make that tackle or at the minimum get a piece of him.

It's crazy that after the Shazier injury these guys still try to tackle w/ their heads down. All that clown had to do was keep his head up, wrap up and tackle the guy.

I'd rather then Pats win it the next twenty years than see the Eagles win one.

It's the ONE thing you can say to those assholes. :D

Re: NFL Playoffs thread (2017-18)
 

I think the Jags have a good shot to take down NE. Jax winning it all would be pretty cool.

Re: NFL Playoffs thread (2017-18)
 

The whining from the Steelers fans is perfect today. Jesus, is there a more whining block of fans than the Steelers? arrogant fucks to the utmost...and they were doing the same thing as there team this week, talking about the patriots and not jags. Fuck em all.

OK I have changed my mind F the Eagles fans, this is just beyond stupid. I will never go to a game there.

Re: NFL Playoffs thread (2017-18)
 

Williams surely had "whatever you do, don't give up the PI" ringing in his ears. It's the only thing that accounts for the way he ducked down, thinking he timed his hit too early. Still a rookie mistake, but not like a pro golfer whiffing a tee shot.

And how beautiful was it to see the Steelers fans get jagged. Only thing better will be the Eagles going down. There are many nice things about Pennsylvania, but those teams and their fans are not among them.

If anything they're exciting as hell to watch. Defense nasty. Fournette EXTRA nasty. I might be going out on a limb, but he reminds me of a more beastly AP back in his prime. Dude RARELY goes down on the first tackle.

Nothing like a good ol' conspiracy theory. NO WAY (and there's no way this happened) he would have gotten paid more than the bonuses each player gets by getting to each round.

Re: NFL Playoffs thread (2017-18)
 

Also, imagine the logistics of this: "OK, so the game is going to come down to the last play. YOU'RE the person the ball will definitely be going to." Come on Slay.

Vegas had the Vikes by 5, they won the spread and big $$... Nobody wanted to believe the NBA had fixed games too but the Ref that got arrested admitted to it. After seeing all the PATS plays this yr , IDK anymore man.

I mean if you look at the video in slow motion it def looks like he ducked the hit on purpose...

There Schneed is that enough words for you? :)

Re: NFL Playoffs thread (2017-18)
 

To me, just looked like he totally whiffed...

...like did someone radio to him RIGHT before that play and say, "Got some $$$$$$$$$$ for you if you let this TD happen." Just can't see it.

Regardless, I wanted Minnesota to win because I think they have the best chance of taking out the dumbass Eagles.

Re: NFL Playoffs thread (2017-18)
 

I had a dream that one day all players will learn to properly tackle and the Redskins shall rise up and break free from the shackles of mediocrity to win another damn Super Bowl.

What I heard is that the coaches told them what ever you do no interference penalties. If you look it seems he was trying to avoid hitting Diggs. My new Brother In Law is from Minnesota so they have kind of become my second team. I guess its easy to make them my second team when they are having a winning year.

Seriously. So someone thought to pay off the guy to miss a tackle on a Hail Mary as time expires. Who paid him? Nostradamus? Dumbest thing I’ve heard in a while re an NFL game.

No, Darius Slay is the guy accusing another player of taking money to try fixing games. His claiming the Saint's player was paid off in this case is ridiculous. I'm thinking maybe he and some people he knows might be in on that kind of action, if anybody? The same way someone who cheats in a relationship is more eager to accuse others of that behavior.
