Well Crabtree has caught more TD passes.

He's got the Randy Million push-off down already. Might as well start making his bust for Canton.

Are you referring to the TD over Al? Because I was watching for that on the replay and didn't see it. From the original angle it seemed that Al got moved, but from the endzone it looked like there were no hands but that he got a bad jump.

Rewound it a couple times myself. He pushed right hand directly on Al. Got big seperation from the goal line to 5 yards deep.

OK, well that makes some sense, because I was looking for a shove in the endzone right before the jump. I probably missed the play at the five.

There was contact earlier, but I thought that the most important contact happened right about at the goal line. Look at his hands on the play:

That play pissed me off big time, and I was surprised the announcers or nobody else even saw it.

Watching the game live I told my son it was a push off, but was the variety that WRs typically get away with. What's the old line "Learn the rulebook then learn what violations you can get away with." that was a perfect example of the latter. The best WRs will be able to use a little push to their advantage. Sucks to be a DB sometimes.

That's certainly true. Murders and thieves also get away with violations. They're still murders and thieves, regardless.

It's funny though watching that play because you see Harris is stuck on Crabtree in great position for the INT, and then all of a sudden WTF? Crabtree is wide open now!

[SnakeLH2006]

Yep. And Raji has more sacks.

Are you implying that after Crabby's diva holdout...gulp...he might not have a sack after all? I'd agree, there, Smidgeon.

OK, you have convinced me. At the one or two he got shove in a step before they jumped. It was a nice move by the rookie.

If he wasn't pushed Al has the unique ability to come to a complete stop in one step after running full speed for 40 yards.

That's a good way to rupture a tendon or ligament. Watch out there, Al.

[get louder at lambeau]

I'm confused. Hell, 6'1 215 lb wide receivers with some ball skills are a hell of a lot harder to find than guys with NT power and body shape who can rush the passer.

I assume this is sarcasm.

What is really hard to find are guys with NT power and body shape who are deep threats with ball skills.

...like Johnny Jolly.

[bobblehead]

yea, after watching that replay its blatantly obvious. Al is looking up, playing the ball, and suddenly he is stopped dead in his tracks as Crab seperates (read pushes) and jumps up for the catch. How the official can miss that is beyond me.

Yeah, I noticed that too, BobbleHead. Crabs looked like a tree trunk running down the field just pushing off (and barely noticeable). He's about what I thought, good hands, good base, strong as hell...but slow. Kinda reminds me of Sterling, but Sterling looked much faster getting open down field and running away from people. Maybe he's more Michael Irvin....

It's hunting season. Ted is eyeing his prey for the long, cold winter months...I hope.
