Redskins vs. Saints Official Game Day Thread

I'm pretty sure down by contact is reviewable isn't it?

Then we have been hosed may times in the past when Zorn has asked for a review and they say down by contact so it's not reviewable. The only thing they can review is the spot of the ball. To see if it was a first down or not.

I can't say I fully understood what happened on that play quite honestly. Seemed like they were saying he was fumbled before he was down by contact. Why not just say before he was down?

yes think they changed that rule 2 yrs ago . although it seemed like his forarm was down as was that interception before half. his legs was on shockey when he was down. look at that run near the goal line from the saints where he thought he rolled into the endzone untouched, but on his way down he touched a redskins player so he was down at the half yard line

Watching the Cowgirls get lambasted is always something that perks me up after a loss :)

wow, 1 play 79 yards excellent

Im with you..my friends are on facebook talking shit people are callin me talkin shit...


I hope we blow the Raiders out next week..God I need to see a Win in Cali live! I feel your pain...

You heard it here (i'm watching the highlights) Devin Thomas will be the next Jerry Rice or Art Monk!

We find ways to lose games. I'm so sick of Laron Landry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Showboating loser!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everytime he tackles someone he gets up shaking his head and talking shit. Dude FYI YOU SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The staff either needs to get him in his natural position or get his ass off the field.

He did but the last TD should have not really matter if we made the FG would have put us up by 10 points.
That FG def should've been made no doubt. However you don't let up 2 long FG passes and NO might have to kick field goals or just take longer to get their TD, which would have eaten up some clock, not giving them enough time to come back.

Hm--maybe I take it back. Zorn himself said in the postgame that NFL rules state that an immediate pickup on an inadvertent whistle can result in possession switching to the recovering team. I wish the NFL had the full text of their replay rules online. If the rule does indeed exist, I disagree with it.

I just hope we don't tank it on purpose out here for draft position. We already know what positions we need, and moving up from where we'd shake out without tanking won't make much of a difference. Play with pride from here on out and I no longer care about the loss column.

The cleansing fire that will be our offseason is warming me already.

IIRC it was like 3 quick whistles.. normally at a whistle you stop play, so one person can still react and get the ball because of that

I believe that that's a flaw in the rules

I'm also not big on continuing the review after a TO is called, that's the same as having a challenge. Either give them a challenge or don't review it anymore once the TO is called.
