Making you happy for a buck since 199X
Shanahan seems to be a genuinely awesome offensive play designer and also smart enough to hire someone good to run his defense and leave him alone. As a head coach he has, uh, issues. But he's so great at the one thing he does that he has to be Head Coach and not merely OC. But tbh he looks pretty drat similar in the results he gets and the way he gets them to the younger Andy Reid.

Agreed 100% here, especially if you see the guy who made the catch urgently running up to his teammates saying "we gotta get to the line and snap the ball".

I've always wondered why players/teams don't do this when they're 100% certain they did in fact make the catch. Seems like an easy way to provoke the opposing coach to waste a timeout and a challenge, plus maybe make him hesitate to throw the flag later/in another game in a situation where you maybe didn't make the catch.

e: dammit, sniped

Man, playing chicken with the catch rules is playing with some serious fire, even if you're 100% sure you made the catch. :lol:

Maybe instead of blowing a loving whistle to stop play you do something visual like i dunno cut the lights

okay maybe not cut the lights but there has to be a better way then blowing a whistle in the loudest stadium in the NFL that tells players to stop

The NFL is working on mind control implants officiating enhancement upgrades to better bring play to an orderly halt and maintain the highest quality of on field play but they aren't ready to be rolled out just yet.

That was originally a thing, but it was abandoned because the third QB was functionally useless. He got no practice reps, and if he entered the game, the other QBs weren’t allowed back in. So he couldn’t even spot-fill during an injury evaluation.

No, how it worked was that once you put your 3rd string QB in, no other QB could go back in until the 4th quarter. Parcells very specifically would name Tom Tupa (who was a QB/Punter) as the backup QB, and the actual backup QB as 3rd string QB. That way he didn't use a roster spot on the Punter, and had an extra spot for a special teamer.

quote:

The third quarterback rule states that if a third quarterback is inserted before the fourth quarter, a team’s first two quarterbacks cannot be used in the game at any position.

To be fair, I get why Nick Bosa of all people doesn't want to see an Eagles uniform coming towards him for a while.

Eh, the Combine is in March, and then we get some insanity with free agency later in March whenever the league year starts. The Draft is in April and that’s always entertaining. If you watch other stuff, there’s still good (Playoff hockey!) for a while.

Late June/July is the desert where Stone Skipping and Marble Racing and European Trolly Olympics and competitive eating are the only things going on.
