Yeah, a season ending injury sucks. Especially for #1 overall franchise rookie..... But he's NOT DEAD! He'll probably be back 100% next season or close to it. I'm sure Bengal fans are glad they had the pick and used it on him AND Jet fans will be happy tanking for Lawrence(assuming he comes out) even if he misses part of a season to injury. What would suck for bengal fans and organization is if Burrow all of a sudden took the money and ran and abruptly retired with no warning. -
It's now the day after. I THINK I have a better perspective on this now. First, I think most of us on this forum agree that the calls that were made against the Colts O-line were actual holding penalties. In other words, they were the correct calls. Some may have been tick-tacky, but holding nonetheless. Secondly, I went back and watched several of Green Bays drives and here is what I saw: What I expected to see: Holding on every play. (What many of us on this forum claim is that there is holding on every play and it's really up to the referees to decide whether they will call holding or not). What I actually Saw: Very few plays where an argument could have been made for a holding call against Green Bay. Either their O-line played incredibly soundly, or our defensive lineman did not create enough pressure to force a situation where their O-line had to hold. Missed Calls: IMO, there were two blatantly missed holding calls, which the Packers should have been flagged for. As mentioned earlier in this thread, during the bomb to Scantling from the end zone, (scroll up for the photo evidence), and another one where our defender was tackled right at the feet of Rogers so that he can get a pass off. Overall, like everyone here thinks, the officiating was horrible and definitely one-sided. -
By the way, it was also bad coaching and bad execution. The refs obviously decided to over-officiate holding against the Colts on those two drives. We needed a timeout, huddle, something, to get the offense to settle down and avoid those penalties. They prevented us from being able to run out the clock, or even run it down to any significant degree. The Colts needed to adjust to the refs to execute their gameplan. They didn't, until the OT possession. -
Look at how bad the colts were held. Why wasn’t this a safety. -
