Re: Wildcard Weekend!

Figured this was going to be a low scoring, defensive battle. Good game to watch ... still not sure which team I want to win ... probably whichever team is losing at the time ...

Nice last minute drive going on by Indy ...

52 yarder by Vinatieri is good! 10-6 Ravens lead at the half.

Wow! Cool. OK, Rule alert!! Rule alert part deux... Actually another question. WTH is up with the grounding, and less than one minute, and 10 seconds deal?

Note to Don S if he's watching. I don't feel like Googling it. I just spent an hour honing my understanding of the one point safety. I now know why you NEVER see it in the NFL although it is possible.

Re: Wildcard Weekend!

To legally throw the ball away you have to be outside the tackle box and the ball must go beyond the line of scrimmage. If not, there must be a receiver in the area.

OUCH! That sack had to hurt! Loved the offensive lineman grabbing the defensive guy and yelling, "Get off my quarterback!" Should have thought of that when they didn't block! LOL!

I knew that Captain Obvious.... What about the 10 second thing within one minute thing? Better stated. Why did the clock lose 10 seconds optional to the Colts? Optional to anyone?

And stop with the scoring updates, I am about 5 minutes behind, you have now messed me up twice. Can you please just use this thread, that WIMUSKY started, as I want? Thanks.

Re: Wildcard Weekend!

Okay, no updates. The 10 second run off is when the offense commits a penalty within the last minute of a half the option is a 10 second run off or use a time out, if you have one left. If there is an injury in the last minute, same thing, but you are given a 4th time out for injury. Does that make sense?


BTW, the score is now ... LOL!
