So Detroit is facing 4 and 2, ball is incomplete. WR stands up, gestures at the officials and yells and all of a sudden two flags come flying in well after play.
WR must have reminded the officials of the ‘script’.
Play at the goal line as time ran out. Ball fell incomplete but two flags fell.
Everyone officials included are arguing about the call.
Game over? Untimed down due to game can’t end on a defensive penalty??
Announcement, TD?, but OPI, final ruling is ‘Ball Game’, Stealers win.
Crowd is incensed, people still arguing. The Douche credits Adam Theilen with ‘making plays’. We call eliminate Detroit next week I think.
Crazy/stupid catch in Detroit by Pittsburgh WR Gainwell.
He was interfered with, fell to the ground, ball hit his arm as his arm was on ground, bounced up, he grabbed it, got up, ran for a 45 yard TD and didn’t get touched after the ‘reception’.
10-10 at the half.
WOW
Yep. Refs called it incomplete.
Yet sports media would say we need full time refs or something.
Great play by Gainwell.
It looked like they stood around and discussed it for awhile before signaling TD.
I didn’t have the sound on but it didn’t go to review.
Well this sounds good…
I heard the x-rays were negative
Great!
Not ‘Bad New’ is good.
jj most likely has a broken metacarpal, the long bone in the hand between the wrist and knuckle, which would mean the end of his season, not exactly ideal for your franchise QB. Get ready for more Brosmer.
Yikes.
Ehh.
Give Brosmer a 2 game audition, if he sucks we are sitting a little better in the draft, if he doesn’t we will know we have a decent QB2 option and maybe a QB1 if JJ (QB) keeps being McFragile.
McFragile…
Monty Python Auto Rec.
Chicago and Carolina both in 1st place, who would have thunk it??
Seriously…
Jaguars are 10-4 too, playing the Broncos who are 12-2…
Chicago looks legit.
Carolina just the best of the mediocre.
And add Jax.
Time to find another QB.
Free agent,draft or both.
Full on competition in training camp.
QBs today didn’t suck, JJ made one mistake holding the ball on the screen pass strip sack but otherwise good and Brosmer played like a capable backup in not playing like a total tool as he did in the Seattle game. Jones was great today.
Chargers beat the Cowboys 34-17. Yay!!!!
Good guys get the first down and the win!!!!
Nice. I don’t know what to think about another MCarthy injury, ugh.
I hope it’s not serious…
Broken bone in his hand.
Good for Brosmer, did enough to get a W.
QBR of 90.7. Better than JJ (QB), 58.0, and Darts, 27.4. combined. #grin
Jones seals it. Victory formation. @Never a doubt@
3rd and 6. A first down is the end of the game.
Ballgame
Damn close to a first, Jones is hurt, KOC needs to get him out of there.
This comment didn’t age well
Ya, he talked him into sending him back out. Glad he did, hope Jones can get healthy now.
Prob just a labrum……..a real man will play through it
Or not and he gets a 1nd down!
Need to finish here. Two minute warning. One first down slams the door.
Giants have only 2 TOs.
Already in FG range.
No flag yet?
Van Ginkel sack on 4th down.
Ballgame??
#nojinx
Waiting for a flag. Van Ginkel with the sack. Defense takes over the game, Vikings ball. One first down should win it.
Gink!
Dart sacked on 4th down!!!
4 and 3 coming up.
Waiting for the flag.
Great play by Redmond to prevent that pass from being completed.
4th and 3.
Lol
Incomplete pass, 4th and 3.
Vilma with the brilliant insight that the clock is a consideration when deciding how to call a game.
Deep thoughts…
I feel smarter now
Nice stop on 2nd and 5. 3rd and 3.
Horse shit call on Murphy. Fuck Vilma.
Illegal contact, 5 yards, first down.
Huge drop there for the Giants! Should have been a 40 yard gain.
Giants WR drops one.
Darts QBR this game is 23.7.
#nojinx
Nice stop on first down.
Ricola is money, Vikings up by 3. Good drive by Brosmer & the offense, chewed a bunch of time off the clock, got points. 7 points & a couple more minutes would’ve been really nice.
1 yard pass to Jones, 4th down. Field goal attempt is good. 16-13 Vikings,
That ball was tipped or I think Jones gets the 1st, dammit.
Short on 4th down. Kick the FG, take the points, get the lead.
We have 105 yards rushing so far.
Wonder how many yards our offense has given up? Returns on the interceptions & fumble have to add up to nearly 100.
141 yards given up, so far. 21 passing yards, 120 rushing.
Sorry that’s our defense.
No, I meant yards given up by our OFFENSE
Yeah, saw that… my bad.
3rd and 3. Giants player hurt, they’d better get charged for a timeout on this. I suppose they’ll run the clock afterward.
Jones up the middle for 4 yards, 3rd and 4 from the 13.
Jones runs for 2 yards, second and 8.
At least the defense is getting a good rest for what is hopefully the Giants last drive.
At least Brosmer knows that you are supposed to throw the ball right away on a screen
Throw it or throw it away but don’t hold it
Timeout Giants. Vikings with first and 10 at the 19.
Love that screen play, Scott for another 1st down.
Nice screen pass to Scott for a first down.
JJ (WR) up to 85 yards today.
Jones taking over. keep the clock running. Finish with 7.
Nice toss play for a first down to the Giants 30.
In range. Now just burn 8 more minutes off the clock.
LOL
Nice run for 4 yards on second and five.
Vilma says “maybe Jamaar Chase is better” than Jefferson. What a complete tool.
JJ vs Chase is at least debatable, Vilma being a complete tool is not
Jefferson is a good dude
