The fact that Keith Richards has outlived Richard Simmons, sure makes me question this whole, "healthy eating and exercise" thing

They were trying to find ways to get the Aarons a win.

You might be right...probably right!

I hate it when refs decide to get involved in a way to decide a game by either calling bogus calls or "missing" calls, like the other night when a ref (who clearly saw the holding) didn't bother to throw a flag, in order to help Burrows get back in the game. Burns is not mouthy at all, but he was clearly upset that the ref didn't throw a flag for holding, that allowed Burrows the chance to keep the Bengals moving down field and eventually, a win.
Sucks!  :boooo:

The ref (right lower corner) is staring at the hold on Burns, and "let it ride" to the benefit of Burrows and the Bengals. That's BS!!!

I don't know. Maybe maybe not. And what the refs are trying to help Aaron Rodgers and the Jets over Josh Allen future superstar?

And what was the unsportsmanlike call on the player who said something to the ref?!?

Some of those calls were very nitpicky.

It's the body weight thing.
"There is a greater purpose...that purpose is team. Winning, losing, playing hard, playing well, doing it for each other, winning the right way, winning the right way is a very important thing to me... Championships are won by teams who love one another, who respect one another, and play for and support one another."

Yeah, but Espenesa could have really pummeled Rogers if he wanted to. It looked to me like he held his weight off him the best he could and rolled off him immediately.

Last night's game was a joke. I saw way too many ticky-tacky calls. Some of them were jokes. Let the guys play.
I HATE TO INCLUDE THE WORD NASTY< BUT THAT IS PART OF BEING A WINNING FOOTBALL TEAM.

Rodgers is NYC, the largest market.

That looked like an old school drive the QB's shoulder into the ground with your added weight to try and injury him move

I think he just tumbles on top of Rodgers when he drops to a knee

Refs inserting themselves into a game again. Happens way to often.

What drives me crazy is when a defender's hand or arm grazes the QB's helmet and they call a personal foul.  I get it if the QB's head is rocked but a graze should be part of the game.

Also there are many calls when he gets hit after the throw but it is closer to a split second and they call a penalty on the pass rusher.  Ridiculous.
