Don't let the Heinicke ride distract you from the fact we needed 1 phantom holding call, 1 dropped TD, and 2 offsides on the final drive to win it.

I don’t think it was a phantom holding call, but regardless how many times have we been on the opposite side with our team making the losing plays. Sometimes, when a team is getting its legs under it, they need those luck moments we got today.

Exactly! It's still far too early in the season to say which way things are gonna go. We could potentially hit our stride in another month or so and become a formidable opponent each and every outing.

We'll eventually see how things goes.

yeah it happens to us a lot too, so I'll take the W. Just saying don't let this fool you into believing we were the better team tonight.

And for me no way that's a hold. Keeps WJ3 in front of him, hands inside, driving him forward. Would be different if William was making an obvious effort to go for the tackle and being restricted. But if that's a hold you can flag 100% of running plays.

That clip doesn't show the whole play. 100% holding.

Might not get called everytime, but no penalty does.

I edited the part where's there is contact because it wouldn't fit under 15 sec otherwise, but what was flagged is what you saw, there's no contact before nor after.
Won't argue back and forth about it forever, I'll just say as a ref I am never throwing this flag, because by the philosophy of the rule this is not a foul, the defender is cleanly getting beaten on the block, the grab doesn't prevent him from making any play, doesn't bring him in another direction than the one he is going, he's not shedding that block whatsoever.

It's the NFL and you take the win any way you can. Congratulations ,your team made plays when it counted.

That was definitely a weak ass call. We caught a break on that one.

Wow! One helluva game. Glad I watched it sober.

Yea the D needs some work fast.

But any win over the Giants (hey Jintsfan) is a good win.

I'm starting to move over to your side about Chase. He better start going nuts immediately.

I watched him closely, nothing zero nothing.

Interesting take by the big ole white dude in the post game show, that is a former player, but I can't think of his name.

He was talking about Barkley and about how much time you can wait for him to get comfortable. And he was emphasizing the new rules where physical practice is way more limited, etc. Knocking rust off needs a lot more actual game plays. Basically, it's way harder to hit the ground running nowadays, coming off a major injury.

I understand limiting offseason practice, etc., but there are 2 sides to every coin.
