Official Chicago Bears Game Day Thread

[pbmax]

Nose for the hole. That was clean.

[Harlan Huckleby]

The Bears look like they were at a rave last night

[beveaux1]

Nice running.

[gbgary]

nice. needed that.

[pbmax]

3 snaps, no muffs!!!

Go Taybor™

[Brandon494]

Give Jones more snaps damnit

[Joemailman]

Anybody start Aaron Jones in fantasy football?

[Cheesehead Craig]

To quote woody "can't let Chicago score here"

[pbmax]

Nick Perry is the best run defender on the team.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Josh Jones is a player.

[pbmax]

CBS would pay Fox to put Trubisky in.

[Brandon494]

Love both Jones rookies!

[pbmax]

Josh Jones is a player.

Yep.

[pbmax]

Martellus IS Bubba Franks. Just taller.

[red]

come on jordy

[Brandon494]

Damn Jordy

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Awww, Jordy. He could have kept running for awhile with that

[Maxie the Taxi]

Martellus IS Bubba Franks. Just taller.I see Marv Fleming.

[beveaux1]

CBS would pay Fox to put Trubisky in.

Boy, is this true.

[gbgary]

Martinez cleared and back.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Josh Jones is a player.

yes, Max. Very, very good!

[woodbuck27]

These injuries HAVE to be something the Packers are doing wrong.

Feed those men some MEAT !

[pbmax]

I see Marv Fleming.

Was Marv a large, good blocking statue who was easy to tackle?

[Harlan Huckleby]

I see Marv Fleming.

Do you smell almonds?

[pbmax]

Martinez cleared and back.

Poor Fackrell loses out his chance to be ILB.

[red]

not out of the pocket

[Maxie the Taxi]

Was Marv a large, good blocking statue who was easy to tackle?Yup, except he wasn't that easy to tackle.

[pbmax]

Do smell almonds?

Or toast.

[Teamcheez1]

Waste of a series by the offense.

[red]

a-rod not happy about something

[Cheesehead Craig]

Vogel is a stud

[Guiness]

Jones (the RB!) looks really good out there.

Have to hand it to Romo - guy is a pleasure to listen to.

[red]

so, are we in the prevent D yet?

[MadScientist]

Martinez is the first guy I've ever heard of who was checked for a concussion but cleared.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Martinez is the first guy I've ever heard of who was checked for a concussion but cleared.Hard-headed Mexican.

[pbmax]

Jamaal Williams knee, Joe Thomas with ankle.

[MadScientist]

What the fuck was that. Tackle the guy.

[pbmax]

Brice that was TERRIBLE!

Benny Cunningham is back in the League?

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Brice that was TERRIBLE!

Benny Cunningham is back in the League?

Brice hits like a ton of bricks but he misses more than most.

[Maxie the Taxi]

I'm thinking interception.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Well that was poopy

[Harlan Huckleby]

unacceptable. i will not accept

[red]

fucking randall

[Teamcheez1]

Couldn't play much worse defense to end the half.

Offense also left too much time on a useless drive.

[woodbuck27]

My goodness Tony Romo is smart.

He makes that Team (CBS - Nance and Romo) Heads and Shoulders above every other NFL Broadcast Team.

[Maxie the Taxi]

I'm still thinking interception.

[pbmax]

Randall played his own coverage there apparently.

[red]

way to give them some life going into halftime

[Packers4Glory]

Randall sucks

[MadScientist]

Randall was shitty with that coverage. The Bears guy didn't do anything special, he shouldn't have been that open.

[HarveyWallbangers]

The safeties are tackling like crap. First, Burnett. Then, Brice. Then, Jones. All whiffed on tackles and let the Bears get big yardage.

[Harlan Huckleby]

this sucks. so now we gotta wait 25 minutes for the second half.

it's the middle of the night.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Randall played his own coverage there apparently.

He just plain got juked

[red]

Randall played his own coverage there apparently.

he seems to do that a lot

can we call it "randall island?"

its like the island from lost where all kinds of weird shit happens that no one can figure out

[pbmax]

Rollins still replaced in slot by Burnett. Rollins deep in doghouse. Buried about as far as Ripkowski.

[Harlan Huckleby]

skip the halftime, they already had a break

[woodbuck27]

Holy Crap...Glennon came up clutch right there...6 out of 7 passing and the Bears are on the scoreboard on a passing TD to Wright.

PACKERS 21 - Bears 7.

[Maxie the Taxi]

he seems to do that a lot

can we call it "randall island?"

its like the island from lost where all kinds of weird shit happens that no one can figure outHow about Randall Continent?

[Joemailman]

Randall always looks aroung like he was expecting safety help when he gives up a TD.

[woodbuck27]

skip the halftime, they already had a break

Keep on Marching.

[pbmax]

he seems to do that a lot

can we call it "randall island?"

its like the island from lost where all kinds of weird shit happens that no one can figure out

Yeah, there is no safety, you can't leverage inside that far. No help.

Unless they were supposed to play off and react once they put Cohen back in backfield.

[Teamcheez1]

Holy Crap...Glennon came up clutch right there...6 out of 7 passing and the Bears are on the scoreboard on a passing TD to Wright.

PACKERS 21 - Bears 7.

Soft coverage, poor tackling, and no pressure on the QB.

Defense thought they could run the clock out by doing nothing.

[Harlan Huckleby]

that was disgusting for a guy to be that wide open in the endzone. They had pressure on the QB, you know they are passing in endzone.

[SMBASS]

I've never seen a worse last 2 minutes before half time defense than what the Packers continuously display. It's unbelievable how we constantly give up points to other teams at the end of the first half.

[pbmax]

All this Chicago momentum and they are still down 14 points.

They must really suck.

[pbmax]

The safeties are tackling like crap. First, Burnett. Then, Brice. Then, Jones. All whiffed on tackles and let the Bears get big yardage.

Yep. So did Fackrell as they came up on red zone. He circled the receiver in front of him, waiting for a move or something. let him steak back inside for 5 more yards.

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Randall always looks aroung like he was expecting safety help when he gives up a TD.

That's bothered me since his rookie year. Body language tells a lot and he's up there in the Cutler Sweepstakes for bad body language.

[pbmax]

Schefter reporting broken ribs (for Monty).

[MadScientist]

he seems to do that a lot

can we call it "randall island?"

its like the island from lost where all kinds of weird shit happens that no one can figure out

Island of Miss Fits Coverages?

[HarveyWallbangers]

Randall actually made a couple of good plays before that TD. Made a good tackle on Cohen and then covered for Jones when he whiffed on his tackle. I'd like to know the coverage call on the TD. I'm not entirely convinced that King didn't have responsibility for that zone.

[pbmax]

If they aren't mad at Randall, what has Rollins done?

[pbmax]

Randall actually made a couple of good plays before that TD. Made a good tackle on Cohen and then covered for Jones when he whiffed on his tackle. I'd like to know the coverage call on the TD. I'm not entirely convinced that King didn't have responsibility for that zone.

It was all out blitz, wasn't Jones in middle?

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Need a D stop to start the half.

[pbmax]

Short kickoff worked that time.

[woodbuck27]

Listening to Bill Coher it sure seems like the Packers are Toast in the second half.

He simply ignores a 14 Point Lead.

Is that scary? :???: Nope !

Now after that Mike Glennon is 11 of 16 for 125 Yards and 1 TD and 1 Pick and ...

Aaron Rodgers 10 of 16.for 119 yards and 2 TD and 0 Picks.

[MadScientist]

Bears fuckup the kick return, but Packers offsides. shit.

[pbmax]

Son of a B****

[gbgary]

off-side. geesh

[Harlan Huckleby]

RIP will be fine at RB.

[pbmax]

Get out of zone

[gbgary]

cover people

[pbmax]

Veteran coverage. :lol:

[red]

coverage sucks

[gbgary]

gonna be a nail biter. FFS!

[Cheesehead Craig]

Jones not fooled

[pbmax]

JONES!

[Rutnstrut]

DECLINED!!!! Fucking stubby.

[gbgary]

mm bailed out.

[MadScientist]

DECLINED!!!! Fucking stubby.

Fucking smart (ok lucky) stubby.

[beveaux1]

Miss.

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Okay, need a nice 12 minute drive.....I need to be up early tomorrow

[Tony Oday]

Wow that's why he gets paid the big bucks!

[pbmax]

Crosby whispered "They don't know the wind has changed with October approaching"

[Tony Oday]

Winter is Coming

[MadScientist]

Now march down and score. Put the game away.

[Rutnstrut]

Fucking smart (ok lucky) stubby.

Meh, I'll take being lucky any day.

[beveaux1]

Tough FG in the rain and wind.

[HarveyWallbangers]

It was all out blitz, wasn't Jones in middle?

I think the fact Hawkins is in the game over Randall tells me that Randall was responsible. I actually thought Randall was playing pretty well before that play. I'm not sure I like Burnett as slot corner though. I like him at ILB in nitro. He gave up the big play early in that last drive.

[woodbuck27]

On the Bears missed FG the wind was blowing left to right and the kick stayed about 2 feet right all the way.

Packers escape one and it's still 21-7.

[pbmax]

Jason Wilde‏ @jasonjwilde 4m4 minutes ago
Here's Randall sitting on the bench during the current defensive series. Looks like House sitting next to him and talking to him.


https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DK3Caa0XkAQk1fK.jpg:large

[HarveyWallbangers]

Fucking smart (ok lucky) stubby.

I actually thought it was a smart call. 47 yarder in those conditions is 50-50. Plus, a FG doesn't get Chicago back in the game like a TD would (not a one score game).

[SMBASS]

So Stubby shows that he would rather take the chance of giving the Bores a shot at a makeable field goal than push them back and trust his D to stop them. He lucked out with that call.

[Harlan Huckleby]

cheap penalty

[pbmax]

Fans must have bought the refs a lot of drinks during the lightning.

[Rutnstrut]

Yup, House is saying. Dude just fake an injury, you get paid and zero expectations of covering people.

good, don't put him back in. notice he's the only guy pouting on the bench and not watching his teammates

[Harlan Huckleby]

bad running

[red]

cheap penalty

i sure didn't see a penalty

[Harlan Huckleby]

ya know, the rookie RBs had to be stars in college to make it in pros. They look like they have no running instincts.

[pbmax]

Sorry Tony, he got the 32 yard line plus a couple extra inches.

[Harlan Huckleby]

they shoulda snapped that damn ball quicker

[gbgary]

Rodgers took too long.

[red]

why does everyone wait till the last fucking second to challenge a play?

[pbmax]

Sorry Tony, he got the 32 yard line plus a couple extra inches.

My bad. He got the 33.

[Harlan Huckleby]

go for it on 4th, fer sure

[pbmax]

Did Romo get the job because he is golf buddies with Nantz?

[red]

ya know, the rookie RBs had to be stars in college to make it in pros. They look like they have no running instincts.

they weren't stars in college though

we drafted the guys where we all said "who?" when they were drafted

they weren't the stars of their teams, they were JAGS at their smaller schools. thats why we drafted 3 of them. we chose the "throw shit at the wall" approach.

[Harlan Huckleby]

they weren't stars in college though

we drafted the guys where we all said "who?" when they were drafted

well, stars is overstatement, but surely they were excellent runners. Is the pros that different for RBs?

[pbmax]

Jones has some balance.

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Jones looks good going outside more than inside.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Great run there to go outside

[Harlan Huckleby]

wow, that Jones has great running instincts!

[pbmax]

Lane Taylor about to win the Bruce Wilkerson.

[Rutnstrut]

I think Jones is doing quite well.

[gbgary]

I like Aaron Jones

[Cheesehead Craig]

I dislike these stupid 1-2 yd routes to Bennett

[KalamazooPackerFan]

There is no reason to throw short to Bennet. He has no escapability at all!

[Tony Oday]

Jones playing like he really wants that Green Jacket.

[pbmax]

Jones should have stayed play side. Cutback put him in crosshairs of unblocked LB.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Whets the hold?

[red]

FUCK

[pbmax]

Terrible call.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Terrible call

[red]

that better be a fucking flag

[channtheman]

What's the point of that play, and Adams is out. Is his career done too?

[Harlan Huckleby]

i don't think that was a dirty tackle, just unfortunate

[pbmax]

What a cheap shot of a player being held.

[channtheman]

Oh man, I hope he's OK.

[red]

that needs to be a multi game suspension

[Harlan Huckleby]

he wasn't a defenseless receiver. It was a nasty, cheap shot, but legal as I see it

[pbmax]

i don't think that was a dirty tackle, just unfortunate

Head to head shot with top of helmet driven through player who was going down.

Should sit for 3 games.

[Harlan Huckleby]

What a cheap shot of a player being held.

yes, but it's legal, isn't it?

[call_me_ishmael]

That is a wildly unnecessary, bush league bullshit hit. You want to clean up the game? You suspend jack asses like this for the year. This is what causes CTE. He could have broken his neck.

[beveaux1]

Hitting a man in the head is NOT legal.

[Tony Oday]

he wasn't a defenseless receiver. It was a nasty, cheap shot, but legal as I see it

Then get your fucking glasses, crown of the helmet

[mraynrand]

he wasn't a defenseless receiver. It was a nasty, cheap shot, but legal as I see it

wrong

[channtheman]

he wasn't a defenseless receiver. It was a nasty, cheap shot, but legal as I see it

Spearing though, maybe? You're right it's not a penalty under the defenseless receiver category, but it seems like something.

[pbmax]

he wasn't a defenseless receiver. It was a nasty, cheap shot, but legal as I see it

Can't target helmet to helmet unless you are head up on a runner. Adams wasn't running.

[red]

he wasn't a defenseless receiver. It was a nasty, cheap shot, but legal as I see it

he led with the crown of his helmet right to the chin

[Harlan Huckleby]

Head to head shot with top of helmet driven through player who was going down.

Should sit for 3 games.

what is the rule? you can tackle running backs anywhere until the whistle.

or maybe I don't know the rule.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Legal? Not hardly. Leading with the helmet. They weren't even going to call it until Adams was injured though. Hey, if they don't blow the call on McCray, Adams gets a TD and doesn't get knocked out.

[beveaux1]

That is a wildly unnecessary, bush league bullshit hit. You want to clean up the game? You suspend jack asses like this for the year. This is what causes CTE. He could have broken his neck.

Absolutely agree.

[Brandon494]

He better be fucking suspended...fucking bitch

[Harlan Huckleby]

he led with the crown of his helmet right to the chin

shitty but legal against a runner.

[MadScientist]

he wasn't a defenseless receiver. It was a nasty, cheap shot, but legal as I see it

I don't care if the ref had to make up a rule to call that. It needs to be called, fined, suspended, etc. That shit will kill the game.

[red]

That is a wildly unnecessary, bush league bullshit hit. You want to clean up the game? You suspend jack asses like this for the year. This is what causes CTE. He could have broken his neck.

CTE

nevermind, you already fixed it

[pbmax]

yes, but it's legal, isn't it?

I don't know what separates receiver from runner while tackling, but you can't go helmet to helmet unless you have a running coming at you basically.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Fox should have taken him out of the game.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Legal? Not hardly. Leading with the helmet.

you can lead with helmet against a runner. Once a receiver runs upfield under control, he is a runner.

[mraynrand]

Legal? Not hardly. Leading with the helmet. They weren't even going to call it until Adams was injured though. Hey, if they don't blow the call on McCray, Adams gets a TD and doesn't get knocked out.

good point. that was a BS holding call

[red]

shitty but legal against a runner.

nope

[woodbuck27]

That short assed Bear defender needs to be suspended for the rest of this Season for that assault on Adams.That hit was fricken unnecessary.

A damn fine isn't good enough there.

[mraynrand]

you can lead with helmet against a runner. Once a receiver runs upfield under control, he is a runner.

they ruled defenseless receiver. your point would be valid otherwise.

[MadScientist]

Oh man, I hope he's OK.

It's bad when the best you can hope for is a concussion. That shit can jeopardize careers and worse.

[pbmax]

what is the rule? you can tackle running backs anywhere until the whistle.

or maybe I don't know the rule.

I am not sure it comes under defenseless receiver. But he wasn't a runner in the middle of the field either.

Helmet to helmet is controlled by more than defenseless receiver now I *think*.

[George Cumby]

That hit was sickening. Fuck me I hope he's ok.

[Tony Oday]

Prayers for Adams as a human. That was Bush fucking league.

[Harlan Huckleby]

I don't know what separates receiver from runner while tackling, but you can't go helmet to helmet unless you have a running coming at you basically.

running backs use their helmet as weapon against defenders all the time. Those defensive guys are just standing there.

I could be wrong about the rules, maybe we will learn this week.

[Cheesehead Craig]

you can lead with helmet against a runner. Once a receiver runs upfield under control, he is a runner.
It is illegal

"A runner already in the grasp of tacklers and having his forward progress stopped"

[Brandon494]

Head to head shot with top of helmet driven through player who was going down.

Should sit for 3 games.

He damn sure better, 2 at least for that shit. Adams might be done for the year.

[George Cumby]

Ref was pissed.

[mraynrand]

Fox better keep T on the bench in the name of good sportsmanship and preventing a real fight.

[Harlan Huckleby]

I am not sure it comes under defenseless receiver. .

yes, I think they used that rule to penalize a dirty hit. But technically, I don't these the flag was correct.

I could be wrong, we'll hear more about it.

[woodbuck27]

I don't know what separates receiver from runner while tackling, but you can't go helmet to helmet unless you have a running coming at you basically.

Adams was held up and helpless. That hit was sick ! Was it Danny Trevathan?

Meanwhile it's back to a 21 Point lead and Packers 28 - Bears 7.

[gbgary]

hope Adams doesn't have any structural damage to his neck.

[pbmax]

nope

No, I am pretty sure you can still go helmet to helmet on a runner.

But that isn't what Adams was going to the ground and Trevathan wasn't heads up with him until he dove at him.

[Guiness]

Fox should have taken him out of the game.

+1 to that. Somewhat surprised he didn't. He was trying to talk to Rodgers after the TD, but he turned his back on him.

[Zool]

i don't think that was a dirty tackle, just unfortunate

Seriously?

[Harlan Huckleby]

It is illegal

"A runner already in the grasp of tacklers and having his forward progress stopped"

OK, that probably is it.

[beveaux1]

When a player is being held up by 2 players with no way to go up, down, or sideways, and a defender targets his head with a running start. That is the classic definition of a defenseless player being targeted. That player should have been removed from the game.

[pbmax]

running backs use their helmet as weapon against defenders all the time. Those defensive guys are just standing there.

I could be wrong about the rules, maybe we will learn this week.

I agree about runners. But he wasn't running. he was going to the ground in a tackle. Plus the ref, perhaps incorrectly, called him still a receiver. The transition point is unclear.

[Zool]

In college he would have been ejected. In the NFL he’s in on the next play. Smart.

[Harlan Huckleby]

Seriously?

That's what I saw at first. Adams was still trying to gain yardage when hit happened.

[JohnMexico]

wrongstill here?

[MadScientist]

Pick. Fuck you Bears. You deserve to lose by 50.

[red]

can we call dagger yet?

i want to go to bed

[Zool]

If 59is back in I would dive directly at his knees. Accidentally of course.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Hawkins doesn't seem to get any better. I think I'd rather have Randall back in the game. Glennon is turrible, Caleb Hanie-level turrible.

[mraynrand]

still here?

no

[Harlan Huckleby]

Then get your fucking glasses, crown of the helmet

you generally can use crown of helmet against a runner.

I thought Adams was still going forward

[pbmax]

I think the holding call was a result of the DE going to the turf. Just like when Linsley would bench press guys into the turf, McCray forced the end to slip and it looked like he hooked and tackled him. But I think it was clean and bad footing.

[TravisWilliams23]

When a player is being held up by 2 players with no way to go up, down, or sideways, and a defender targets his head with a running start. That is the classic definition of a defenseless player being targeted. That player should have been removed from the game.

This.

[Harlan Huckleby]

When a player is being held up by 2 players with no way to go up, down, or sideways, and a defender targets his head with a running start.

I didn't see it that way live.
I thought it was a nasty hit against a runner pushing forward.

[red]

still here?

lol

oh yeah, that "quiting" lasted, what, a few hours?

[Zool]

That's what I saw at first. Adams was still trying to gain yardage when hit happened.

Just look up crown of the helmet rule. Pretty cut and dry.

[woodbuck27]

When a player is being held up by 2 players with no way to go up, down, or sideways, and a defender targets his head with a running start. That is the classic definition of a defenseless player being targeted. That player should have been removed from the game.

Then the NFL would be acting smart like the NHL.

\That was in NHL terms 'an intention to injure' !

[Zool]

you generally can use crown of helmet against a runner.

I thought Adams was still going forward

No you can’t.

[pbmax]

The receiver also slowed down in the wrong spot.

[gbgary]

Glennon with a Cutler-like performance tonight.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Cobb is a 1st down machine!

[pbmax]

Great Cobb route on the outside.

[Joemailman]

If TT had signed Trevathan as a free agent a couple of years ago, that play wouldn't have happened.I blame TT.

[pbmax]

No you can’t.

Did it change?

Because one year they really cut down on helmet to helmet but left it open for runners.

[Zool]

Jones runs hard. He’s pretty fun to watch.

[KalamazooPackerFan]

Romo keeps saying McCray is having a rough day but for what he has been asked to do with little to no prep I think he's been pretty good

[red]

see last year or the year before, they would have considered cobb "covered" and not a viable target to throw to, resulting in a sack

[Joemailman]

Glennon with a Cutler-like performance tonight.

He's Bear People.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Again a stupid route for Bennett

[Harlan Huckleby]

Just look up crown of the helmet rule. Pretty cut and dry.

OK, I wasn't aware of that rule

[Zool]

Did it change?

Because one year they really cut down on helmet to helmet but left it open for runners.

For safety reasons, the Committee believes that crown-of-the-helmet hits by defenders that were previously legal because the defender did not line up the runner should be illegal regardless of whether the defender lines up the runner prior to making contact. When the rule was first implemented, game officials were instructed to look for three elements for interpreting the rule for initiating forcible contact with the crown of the helmet:

http://operations.nfl.com/the-rules/2016-rules-changes-and-points-of-emphasis/

[pbmax]

Romo makes me feel like I understand 25% less football while watching. I can't process it all like he is.

Obvious I know, but I enjoyed the delusion.

[Cheesehead Craig]

If TT had signed Trevathan as a free agent a couple of years ago, that play wouldn't have happened.I blame TT.

But he's a "tough guy" that our defense needs. After all, look how great that Bears defense is with him.

[mraynrand]

see last year or the year before, they would have considered cobb "covered" and not a viable target to throw to, resulting in a sack

he was covered. not a high risk throw considering the game circumstances.

[Fosco33]

That hit on Adams was completely unnecessary. No way he'd have scored and was wrapped up. Didn't see a hold on prior play anyway.

Frankly - hits like that are why I'm not pushing my 8yr old son towards football.

Take the helmet back a few generations and you won't see shit like that.

[red]

Romo keeps saying McCray is having a rough day but for what he has been asked to do with little to no prep I think he's been pretty good

maybe tony doesn't realize that we consider letting the DE's run around you without ever touching them, to be good technique

[George Cumby]

Liking Romo. Good stuff.

[Harlan Huckleby]

next thing you're gonna tell me is that they outlawed clothesline tackles.

http://operations.nfl.com/the-rules/2016-rules-changes-and-points-of-emphasis/

Well done. I had missed this. It was illegal from stem to stern, not just unnecessary roughness.

He should go for 3 games.

[red]

Romo makes me feel like I understand 25% less football while watching. I can't process it all like he is.

Obvious I know, but I enjoyed the delusion.

he's the opposite of madden where he explained everything to you like you were an idiot

[MadScientist]

That looked like the same route that the Bears ran on their TD, but with even worse coverage.

[Maxie the Taxi]

Dilly. Dilly.

[Harlan Huckleby]

a lot of guys here chubbing up over Romo.

[pbmax]

5 snaps, no muffs. TAYBOR™ for Pro Bowl!

[George Cumby]

Any word on Adams?

[red]

Dilly. Dilly.

thats a great ad

[HarveyWallbangers]

Too bad Romo is on CBS. Can we pay him to move to FOX?

Any word on Adams?

[HarveyWallbangers]

Devante Parker is okay everybody.

Bears have a nicked Howard still in the game. :)

Bears going slow. They are throwing in the towel.

[channtheman]

Ha she called him DeVante Parker

I didn't hear what she said after "Davante" and thought it was funny that she was on a first name basis with him. Then I thought maybe with the potential serious injury she was being more sensitive and going first name only. Didn't realize she botched the last name, haha.

[Joemailman]

next thing you're gonna tell me is that they outlawed clothesline tackles.

I think it's legal as long as you don't break his freakin' neck.

Espn live tweeting On game said "Officials have the right to eject players for helmet to helmet hits. However the officials seemed confused as to what happened on the play and did not eject when he clearly should be. However, he will be suspended, terrible hit."

Nope. She didn’t correct herself.

Howard is damn good
