Intentional grounding?

[OpIv37]

Apparently Joe Flacco is immune to the rules. There were at least 3 times where he should have been called but wasn't.

Don't get me wrong. The O was a complete **** show and it isn't the refs' fault that we lost. But those calls were completely inexcusable.

After 16 years on the outs, The words from cartoonist Walt Kelly and his character, "Pogo", surely applies:

Win, lose or draw, bad calls by the refs are inexcusable. They had at least 3 of the same type of bad call go in their favor.

Did you even watch the game?

If you did you would have noticed his football not reaching the line of scrimmage on numerous occassions with nobody anywhere near the football.

It was officiating brain farts...

Mostly against the Bills, at the worst times as well.

Whining hasn't worked for 16 years and it's not going to work now.

Not sure how pointing out blatant errors by the officials constitutes "whining." I said it wasn't the reason why we lost.

They also called TT for one when he was outside the tackle box. If you are a pocket passer with multiple super bowl wins, you are treated differently. If you are athletic, there are no rules to the abuse you can take

I wonder if those Denver linebackers that tried to separate Cam Newton's head from his body would even be in the league today if they hit Brady that way.

If they were Steelers players, it would be a tough call.

Re: Intentional grounding?

I mentioned this last year because Brady does the exact same thing every time he faces pressure.

To me if you're not trying to complete the pass, or clearly throwing the ball away then it should be grounding. This bailout that you can chuck the ball at the feet of the RB or TE that was kept in pass protect but is still an eligible receiver is crap.
