    cragg out of bounds

    I was still in church when the game started so I did not see the play that cragg went out of bounds and caught the pass.
    I did not know about it until i saw it mentioned here
    so i googled it
    and watched the play
    Now... between all us on this forum there must be about 2 million hours of football watched
    between all of us on this forum there must be thousands of quarters of football played
    between all my years of playing football in high school, and my brief stint in the NFL (ok, the NFL thing only happened in my head)
    and watching my son play high school and College football.....
    HAS ANYONE EVER SEEN that happen before? EVER!!???
    now I've seen receivers catch a ball heading out of bounds, I've seen receivers reach out of bounds to try to make the catch...
    but in the history of all our football experience has anyone here EVER seen a receiver run a route, and turn and set for a catch WITH NO ONE AROUND HIM...... STANDING IN THE PAINT FOR GODS SAKE!!!?????

    are these guys the STUPIDEST football dimwits to ever suit up?
    This play symbolizes how inept this whole team is and how undisciplined they are!

    Berman just skewered the team for that on the MNF pregame .

      The lettering on the sideline was weird. I can see how, if you're looking at it with peripheral vision, it could look like the field of play.

            This was such an asinine thing to watch. The JAGS are so bad. They desperately tried to give us the game...but we were worse. It was an embarrassment.

              Lost in the Manuel implosion was that Gragg might have played his way out of the league. Maybe give Nick O' Leary a shot with the bigs

                I can't see that on the sidelines with Gragg. I think it was just bone-headed lack of awareness, myself.

                But remember that Bills kickoff after their fieldgoal right before halftime? There was less than 10 seconds left. The Jags player kind of kneeled down in the front part of the endzone and then took it out looking confused, and then tried to kneel down again in the field of play? I think the returner got confused because the "Jaguars" lettering in the end zone was not filled in with any coloring. Just a white outline of the word "Jaguars" and the normal green color of the field inside that.

                I was thinking at the time that he probably saw the white outline of "jaguars" and mistook that for the goal-line and, in effect, couldn't tell where he was. That was a little crazy looking, and I first thought and hoped he was making a huge mistake we could benefit from.

                But not to be long-winded or boring...

                  Why the rationalizations? The guy was standing there....wide open...out of bounds. WTF.

                    I would add that as a Bingo square, but I don't think it'll ever happen again.

                      Lol, there were people in the fourth row in the stands wide open too. MAybe EJ could hit them if he aimed for Gragg.

                      Seriously, that was a big missed opportunity though

                        Come to think of it...maybe more receivers should work the out of bounds area perhaps Manuel could get them the ball.

                          Well, Watkins wants more targets so he's going where the ball is.

                            We have to find new ways to suck. We've tried most ways of sucking already, so I'm glad to see someone demonstrate a little creativity.

                            Can't wait to see what they come up with next. Maybe a drop kick out of bounds penalty? Has that ever happened?

                              Maybe we can try to top what the Colts did against the Patriots on that 4th-down play. If you didn't see it, I can't really describe it. Dumbest **** ever, except for maybe a ridiculously muscled Carrot Top wearing mascara and strange alien eyebrows.
