    Is this new rule because of the Barr/Rodgers hit last year?
    After lunch the players lounged about the hotel patio watching the surf fling white plumes high against the darkening sky. Clouds were piling up in the west… Vince Lombardi frowned.

      I don't think either interpretation of the rules (driving him into ground, or landing with full weight) apply here.

      The entire rule is a fucking joke. Period.

      The fact we are discussing the nuance of guy falling down on a hit proves it.

        I see no penalty there.

          God I hate weeks like this. I get so fucking pissed. This will bug me and keep me up way too late.
          But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

            I actually thought the Vikings played a better game than the Packers and we were lucky to escape with a tie.

                Exactly. I felt the same way.

                Here the Packers are playing the Vikings, huge game, and I literally didn't care at that point.

                  Completely true.

                    Nope. See image post below from the Ref and Demovsky.
                    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

                      Speaking of rules, early in the game Cousins through a deep ball that the receiver was no where near (he had run the wrong route). Cousins was under pressure and inside the tackles; why isn't that grounding?



                      For the record, I don't think it should have be grounding......but it seems to have been within all the definitions of the rule.

                          There was one play that the refs said he was under no pressure, so no intentional grounding. But I don't remember which play it was.

                            That's how I read the explanation too......but the new rule that we are alluding to; is that because of Barr?

                            That would have sucked to have that hit cost us a season and now a game this season too.

                              Packers were better through halftime and most of 3rd. Gave up the long TD and that completely changed the game.

                              Packer offense was no great shakes after half though.

                                Awful call and the explanation is even worse. Clay lifted him? Try again
