From somewhere online
Both whistles came on third down. Both were the first defensive holding penalties called all game. And, of course, both calls led to go-ahead scores from the benefactor team, leading them to Super Bowl glory.
Referring to last years Super Bowl and this years.
Refs deciding who’s winning ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Pretty easy to avoid being in that position at all if your coaches are in your ear telling you that a holding penalty is much much worse than giving up a TD.
Or let’s go back four years. The rams v saints.
Rams CB murders the saints receiver. A PI call ends the game for the saints win
No call
You better believe the chiefs are getting that call
That’s all this has ever been about. Chiefs were anointed this year just accept it
Oh im sure this will be hillarious. SNL has never had a miss with an athlete host
Is suzzer aware that football is a contact sport and there’s at minimum like 15 guys grabbing each other’s jerseys on every play?

Twenty years ago, 32 out of 32 coaches also would have punted on 4th and 3 from the 50. Now hardly any of them would. I guess math changed.

Also with 6 minutes left, if the Chiefs get the ball at the 32, they wouldn’t be able to run the clock out. If they get the ball at their own 20 they might.
Was pretty amazing to see him pussy punt the ball and then the chiefs just run it almost all the way back. Instant karma
If Sirianni goes for it there and makes it, it would already be mostly forgotten, whether they win or lose.
If Sirianni goes for it there and misses, and loses the game, it would be talked about for years.
In 2021 Staley went for it on his own side a few times, made it, forgotten. Then he ran bad in some nationally televised games and the pundit-o-sphere gorged on him for weeks. This year he completely turtled up. I bet the owner told him to knock it off.
Normies are not equipped to handle run bad in correctly aggressive spots.
Am I the only one who is happy Chris Simms and Mike Florio were ducked out on?
Anyone watch the XFL? I don’t, but I see they added a three point conversion from the ten yard line on a touchdown. Also supposed to be a different instant replay vibe.
Edit: apparently the replay system is dean blandino in a box deciding all the plays that are contested, not sure, doesn’t sound great.
Should be a dunk tank filled with hot oil.
Ref gets 90 seconds. If he takes more than 90, the call stands and well- we need a new ref.
Gonna be honest. I’m a fan of the three point conversion idea
Would then fake kicks that score also get 3 points or do they have too declare?
And is D touchdown worth 2 if they go for 1 or 2 and 3 if they go for 3 or is it always worth 3 or always worth 2?
are y’all talking about the AA football leagues in the major league thread?
No one cares about the rules or anything about this.
My initial impression is I kind of like that rule change. Does kind of feel weird that close game situations are swung huge on the getting a good bounce on an onside kick. Having your offense try for 15 yards in one play does kind of feel more natural.
4th and 15 seems like it would be much easier than even the old onside kick conversions. you would see some crazy comebacks if that was put into the nfl, like coming back from 21 points in the last 5 minutes is not out of the question.
