I'm an insufferable shitposter who does not deserve to root for such a good team. Also, this is what Matt Harvey thinks of me and my garbage posting.
So why were the 49ers not flagged for a palpably unfair act when Chip Kelly ordered his DBs to wrestle the Saints WRs to the ground?

the biggest problem is right now the Panthers tackle position is so loving dire, they're going to be in trouble against any defense that can apply pressure with defensive ends.

it doesn't matter how much of a poo poo party the rest of the team is, if they have two dudes that can beat replacement level tackles, they'll cause fits.

chiefs - panthers might be ugly as hell, but the Panthers simply can't function on offense right now.

now, maybe oher recovers from his concussion and they kick remmers back over to the right and kalil comes back, but I'm even less confident about them immediately gelling into a competent unit.

It's bush league bullshit that should be stomped out. Purposely putting too many defenders on the field should count too.

Once the offense gets an automatic touchdown awarded for those types of dumb shenanigans that run counter to the spirt of fair play these dumb tactics will end.

In late-game situations like that, the refs should punish extremely flagrant fouls by the defense (such as everyone holding or 14 men on the field) by just putting time back on the clock. No automatic scores or first downs, just dis-incentivize the behavior designed to run out the clock by disregarding the rules. It's easy to standardize too--you give the refs the discretion to do so if the defense has too many men on the field, or if they accrue 2+ defensive penalties on the same play..

It was a clever ploy from old Chip, but of loving course it violates the spirit of fair competition. I would assume the solution just involves putting time back on the clock under two minutes or some such.

That's why John Harbaugh is a garbage coach. He gets outcoached like that and whines and moans about it. He's just not any good as a coach and useless.

Look at Jim Caldwell's team(only ok coach at best) at the end of regulation in that game yesterday. They made a play got right up to the line and knew exactly what to do. The Ravens don't do stuff like that. My team plods around like nothing. And our offensive line plays like trash because of another Harbaugh lackey Juan Castillo.

That's what I mean. He's a useless coach with no offensive or defensive background. He's a glorified cheerleader at the head coaching position. That's why I want him gone.
