Re: The week 1 "what the hell?" thread
0 penalties in the first half and like 6 penalties in the second half, WTH? how does a team just become so undisciplined.
Also this WTH doesn't pertain to the Skins game, but I want to make a point of it nonetheless, because I feel it was horrible officiating. In the Bears-Chargers game, the Chargers had the ball on like the Bears 2 yard line, and one of the Bears jumped the snap really early, like there was no doubt in my mind that he started before the rest of the players started. Then everyone started moving and at the end of it, the Bears player had the ball and was saying it was a fumble by the Chargers and the Bears had recovered. The refs talked it over for a while and the Bears got to keep the ball, even though it was plain and clear that one of the Bears had jumped pre-snap and had gotten a hold of the ball when everyone started moving. I believe that was one of the worst officiating calls I've seen, and even though it didn't cost the Chargers the game, it's still something that shouldn't happen again.
Also I want to say Fred Smoot WTH? How many times have you done the interception drill and this time you let the ball hit your chest and bounce off? If we had lost the game I would be extremely pissed at that, but because we won I'm only disappointed in him. Also his play was not good today, and I seriously want to see him as the nickel corner from now on. If what Smootsmack is saying about Springs not starting because of disciplinary problems, then I hope he doesn't have any more for the rest of the season because we really need him back there. While our run defense is extremely stout, our pass defense still isn't what it should be.
