NFL 2012-13 Season

[Jimbo]

I posted in the Directv thread but CBS really screwed up

Minneapolis only had a late game due to the Vikes being at home on Fox (no game can go against it on local TV)

So at 3:00 I turn on CBS. JB talks about the late game and we'll go to that "soon" but for the time being they'll send us to NO/KC.....we never went away
Had to see the rest of the game with a kickout to Indy to see the last play and to Miami for the FG at end of game and OT

Why would we stay with the NO/KC game when we didnt see 95% of the game????

They FINALLY went to the Denver/Houston game at 4:00 Central

Now next week FOX has the DH so our local CBS is showing only a late game (Vikes on road so they could show a noon game) so we'll see if they go directly to that game at 3:15 instead of making us watch EVERY OTHER EARLY GAME END first

We ended up watching 2 OT games before they went to the correct game.

This is where they SHOULD OPEN UP THE ST CHANNEL, come on NFL/D*/CBS/FOX :rant:

I called D* and inquired, they said it was a Local decision.
I spoke with the locals to whom ever would answer the phone, they forwarded me to CBS Sportsline.

me two. i missed many of the hou - den game bc they were carrying the kc and mia ots.on a seprete note i cant not beleive that arz will start 3;0 i guess that what defenstive can do for you

Salsa, wheres the defense? Im talking about the play that put Pittsburgh up 24-14. I mean Big Ben had all sorts of time with nobody near him and throws the TD in the endzone where there was NO Raider near the receiver who caught the TD.

It's called the starting CBs injured and converting a FS in a CB....AND putting a lesser qualified FS to play. The Steelers are playing it smart by going after the Raiders secondary.

And like in typical fashion when things don't go right...perfectly executed on-side goes through our NON-special teamers hands.

 

[meStevo]

Really ?

You ARE allowed to advance a On Side kick ?

IF SO, then they may have cost the Lions this game, they would have had the ball around the 25 yard line.

I'm not familiar with that rule changing, no. I thought you could advance it, it's a kickoff, it's a live ball.

Long debates in the LIons game too.

Can you advance the ball on an onside kick in the NFL?


The receiving team can advance the ball once they gain possession. The kicking team cannot advance the ball unless it was first in possession of the receiving team.

Apparently not, according to wiki.
Unless the recvg team gains possession, they had touched it, but not possessed it.

 

[meStevo]

Some bad calls in the Saints/Chiefs game, but none as bad or as damaging as the defense giving up 288 yards (233 rush, 55 receiving) to Jamaal Charles

Neat. Wonder when that changed. I hadn't been a fan for very long when I saw Jason Seahorn run an onside in for a TD, was memorable for some reason. Googling it says that was in 2001.

 

[salsadancer7]

And there's a helmet-to-helmet...and no flag to be found.

 

[Mets82]

Bey just got nailed by one of the Steelers. Cards win today, crushing the Eagles. Falcons beat up the Chargers 27-3.

Launched too. At least a $21k fine.

 

[salsadancer7]

The Steelers have gotten away with quite a bit today.

Not intentional but definitely should be a flag .

 

[BengalsFan24]

i was dissapoined in the dolphins lost. they shoud have had that game won aganst the ny jets. in fact the kicker for the ny jets mist a kick terribley but the philbin had called a time out right befour the kick was started. from the replay it look like hte kick did not even make it there and it was very wide. they got the other shot at the kick and put it right down the middle for the win. oh and they went back and showed the tebow play a bunch to.

 

[salsadancer7]

And it's plays like THAT..where players do not make an effort to tackle...but hit, is why players get fined and rules are changed.

 

[salsadancer7]

And now 2 starting WRs and 2 starting CBs done for atleast half the season
