Looking forward to seeing this game if the weather is wet like that; couple of running QBs on the field when maybe you need to run. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Core Four Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 15 minutes ago, Alaska Darin said: The rules really benefit QBs, especially the smaller and less athletic guys who would get worn down quickly from all the hits they used to take. I get protecting the QB, but with pretty much anything the NFL does, the QB rules are a little over the top. It's still tackle football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if it is supposed to rain all day there but we are supposed to get drenched today. I hope my oil deck stain is dry enough...

To a large degree, and not to say that I agree with the underlying basis for the decisions, I think the game today is as exciting as it has ever been.

One of the talking heads this week said QBs who get their number called to run are going to be treated like a RB by the officiating crews and it will be one of those 'points of emphasis' during the first few weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fine with me. Hopefully we don’t see Josh running in the 4th quarter up by 21 ever again though. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few (at the least) of these rules came about because of Brady. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are just going to have to accept that JA17 is who he is and live with the possible consequences. I'm quite sure that pretty much everyone in a position to say something to him has done so. Dude just wants to win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that 4th quarter run was on Josh. I can't imagine Dorsey calling for that; I'd think he told Josh to stop doing these unnecessary runs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i also understand that playing Russian roulette isn’t a solid strategy to live a long life. There is no upside to that 4th quarter run.. and i like to think that Josh is smart enough to understand that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just learned to deal with it because he's clearly just going to live in the moment, which honestly is one of the things that makes him the &#%$ing football super hero he is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wouldn't have lasted 3 seasons in the 70s. A-friggin'-men. And it's part of the reason Allen running while up by 21 in the 4th is sooooo frustrating. If he finally learns to pick his spots, he could have a 20+ year career. He's big enough that he could've had Elwayesque longevity in the old days. Take advantage of the new rules and have 21st century top QB longevity. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
